MaidenformWomen's Elastic Bra Strap Holder

Love these! So simple and way cheaper than buying another specialized clip/racerback/adhesive type of bra that they either wont make in my size, or if they do, it won’t fit me right or be comfortable. These are high quality bands with bra strap stretch, and all three were the same size, unlike other products I had seen. I appreciated the smooth and sturdy metal hooks that are adjustable and fit easily around the abnormally wide straps of my favorite wacoal plus size bras. Once in place the band can be slid up or down the bra’s straps, depending on the style/coverage you need, but once in place it didn’t slide around or pinch, and I couldn’t see that it was even there once my shirt was on. Didn’t even feel it at all really. The end result was successful cinching of the bra straps allowing any bra I own to now be worn with a racerback style top or dress. Was also easier than I thought to put on myself, and I have arthritis and neuropathy in my hands/fingers - so no small feat there! Getting it off was a little more difficult, but thankfully I was able to undo it using a mirror without too much trouble. Overall very happy and highly recommend!

It’s summer, so time for sleeveless tops. I’ve found that my bra straps almost always stick out of my tank tops. I’m in the process of losing weight and had to buy some bras, and I’ll likely have to do it again in another 20-30 lbs, so I didn’t want to spend $$ on racerback or convertible strap bras I might only use for a fairly short time. I decided to search on Amazon for a Velcro- type strap holder, but found these instead. They do exactly what I need- pull the bra straps in just enough to hide them inside my tank tops. The strap does provide a little extra lift of the bust, but it’s nothing super noticeable. The lifting effect would probably be more noticeable with a more structured type of bra, and if you cinched the strap holder tighter. This is a great solution to an annoying problem, eliminating the need to buy special bras. Inexpensive and effective. One caveat… Make sure you can loosen your bra straps a bit, or you may find that your straps dig into your shoulders because of being cinched in.

They don’t work

I read one review who actually took the time to detail the best way to attach this little strap holder to your bra. I think its a great suggestion except it didn't work for me.Here is why-1) attach strap to the bra straps without wearing bra.2) slip bra on over head. This is where I had problems. Your body from top to bottom starts narrow to wide. Shoulders narrow then boobs (wide), rib cage (wider) this means that strap do-dad holder slides up higher towards the neck instead of being in the middle of your back. Racerback is designed to give you that nice back support and pull the breast cups in closer to your back. The racerback is great for those who have strong necks.I recently became disabled due to wearing my racerback straps too high up on the shoulders giving me inflammation in the neck muscle at the top base of the head from straining. I had to stop attaching my straps racerback style and heal from this damage it caused me. This is important for me to mention because the strap holder sits in the same spot high on my neck when I pull the bra over my head. So keep this in mind if you have a weak neck. Do not racerback your straps high above the shoulders.I now1)put the bra on backwards and attach the bra strap holder to the bra shoulder straps. I have to do the work under my breasts in order to draw the bra straps around my rib cage.2)Then I turn the bra around. This is more stress on the bra straps when it comes to putting your arms through the arm holes of the straps. Its my way of insuring that the bra strap holder is in the middle of the back not straining neck muscles.This product does work. It does slide up a little bit which can start to slide over closer to your neck, so I start getting nervous but it still between the shoulder blades . I have healed from my injury. It took a lot of hard therapy and pain.I may sew tiny buttons in place on the bra shoulder straps ( I know tacky but so is the strap holder) to block the bra strap holder from riding upwards. It does not make your back pretty.I gave three stars because the bra strap holder does twist the shoulder traps so keep this in mind when wearing tight shirts. I am 32G European size and don't know what this is in US. I can also wear 32FF which is a size down half size. Having your cups in place to our body is much more sexier than being concerned about whether your bra straps show or mangled up in the back with the bra holder.

The media could not be loaded. I just got these today and they’re perfect. Way more comfortable and in my opinion easier to use than those plastic hook thingies. I seriously disliked those from the jump.It goes around in the shape of a loop so you DON’T need a bra that the straps unhook from. I mean if they unhooked, you could simply criss cross them for racerbacks. I did order a second set so I could double up for those tops that only need the straps pulled in slightly on.The elastic is nice and wide and firm so these should be good for quite awhile. Especially as it wouldn’t be something I’d be using every day.

Seems to work fine, but for us bigger girls with bigger chests, it was very tight even on the loosest setting. Not easy to get bra on after putting it on the straps. It also makes the bra band kind of crumple/gather up in two spots and the spots stick out under my shirt.

Fantastic strap! I get to wear my own comfortable bra and use this strap when you don’t want bra straps to show!! Love it

Can’t reach to adjust behind me
