Reducing from 4 stars to 3 stars for fraying!

This bra does reduce the bounce when riding and it is comfortable enough to wear from an equestrian point of view. It's soft and doesn't pinch or bind when walking or in the saddle and that is a huge plus over several other brands out there.If you are a truly large bust size (DD and E cups or larger, we know who we are) then this bra will in fact be helpful in a number of ways when you're exercising. It does minimize the bounce and subsequent soreness later. It does offer some stability on the front side if you are a rider and fight that tendency to "tip" forward in the saddle. The straps did not drift around nor did they pinch or dig into my shoulder either while tacking up my horses.There are two reasons that I am giving this bra only four stars instead of five.1. It's hard to do up by yourself. The hooks in the back are small and difficult to attach without eyes in the back of your head or a second person. Doing the old hook it up in front and twist it around to the back and pull it up thing you do with a regular bra just doesn't work well with this one. Front closures would make this bra one I would consider buying multiples of in every color.2. My husband's first comment upon seeing me in this sport bra was "You now have a uni-boob".So... the trade off is good support, no pinching or binding or excessive bouncing while you ride, but your once lovely bosum is now a uni-boob. Thus the four stars.*******************UPDATED REVIEW July 4th 2009 **********************After wearing this bra 3 days in a row in 104 degree temperatures during a horse show and washing it out at night in the hotel room, I am amending my intial review and taking back 1 star! Here's the problem.... The bra began to fray in two places by the end of the second day. The first spot is along the rib band in the back and the frayed area is about the size of a quarter and by the end of the 3rd day it was almost all the way through the band. This is just really poor quality materials - it cannot stand up to friction and wear against the body for 3 consecutive days. It has frayed on the INSIDE of the band against the skin. The second frayed area is on the inside on the front of the left cup. The wear is not along seam either, that I could accept as being a fluke or just a weak spot.Additionally the two frayed areas began to rub on day 3 and were starting to cause red irritated spots against my skin, so I had to ditch the Moving Comfort Fiona Bra all together and go back to the old Enell standby that is 4 years old. I will not be purchasing any other Moving Comfort products again - in the future I will pay the $60 for the high quality Enell bras.
