I bought this item because I needed to get some sports bras that didn't require me to dislocate my shoulders in order to take them off.  Compression bras are very handy when you are doing some running to keep everything from bouncing around too much, but of course because of their design they are very tight and difficult to remove.  I thought because this bra has a hook-and-closure back, putting the bra on and taking it off would be pretty easy.

Unfortunately, the bra is still very much a pull-over-the-head type, despite the hook-closure on the back; in fact, I'm not sure why the hook-closure is a feature, as it doesn't appear to be a benefit, and doesn't allow you to fully open the bra from the back.  In any case, I had to return it because it was no better than the sports bras I already own and struggle with.

However, I did opt for another model of sports bra from the same manufacturer, which does truly open-and-close in the back, and I am pleased with the quality of the other model I bought from this manufacturer, and see no reason to think this bra is not also well-made and durable.

Overall, I think this bra could be a very good value for the right person, but beware if you have issues with over-the-head type bras and want an item that is easier to put on and take off.
