Bra straps, clips, anyone try them?

MsMaven

Long ago I grew out of racer back bras--skinny rib cage + growing cup size makes it impossible to find one with a decent fit.

Today I checked around and found these online. I do occasionally wear with cut in sleeve holes in summer. These supposedly work on your regular bra.

Anyone have experience with these? Are there better options?

I had one similar to your first photo. I just went to use it a few days ago and can’t find it, so I’m about to order another one.

I have two bras that convert to racerback with a little hook assembly, but it turns out that the straps are too slippery and I can ONLY use it with the hooks in racerback position because otherwise the straps slowly loosen over the course of a day. But they’re not my favorite bras, so I am thinking I’d like another one of those clip things to use with the bras I actually like and wear — they’re inexpensive and they do come in handy.

Now I need to find a good racerback bra for yoga that is not a pull-over style. A whole other challenge!

I use the ones in the second photo. After an initial period of figuring out how to attach them by myself, I love them. The best part is that you can decide how much you want the straps to be pulled in. Some tops just need a little bit but can't take too much or the straps show up near the neck, others need a lot. These are the ones I use: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01E.....;pd_rd_wg=

I've used the kind illustrated in pic 2. As Clementine said, initially figuring out how to use the converter can be a pain, but once you've got it figured out, it's pretty easy. I didn't have any problems with mine.

I have ones similar to the second photo. They are a bit of a pain to get adjusted and make it more difficult to get the bra on properly, but they do the job and once in place work fine.

I didn't like the clips, they just weren't comfortable for me. I do a racerback sports bra; or a strappy sports bra that looks deliberate with racerback tops

I've never tried clips but it sounds interesting. I have used a safety pin in a pinch. I usually either wear a strapless bra or a racerback. It depends because some of my tank and racerback tops have varying strap placement and sometimes my racerback bras straps still show.
