Sometimes customers mention that they have sloping shoulders and that this leads to their bra straps slipping. So we have put together some bra tips for getting bras for sloping shoulders.
Tips For Picking A Bra If You Have Sloping Shoulders
- Bras with wide straps can help prevent the straps slipping.
- A bra with a racer back clip will help to hold the straps in place.
- A bra with a leotard back helps prevent slipping.
- Try a bra with a J hook that can make your bra into a leotard back. This design holds the straps in place closer to the neck, so again there is less chance of strap slippage.
- If a bra has centre pull straps the straps are cut close to the neck rather than the shoulder edge. This will help to stop the straps from slipping.
- Straps that finish on a high apex can to help with strap slippage.
Browse our extensive collection of bras to find your perfect fitting bra for sloping shoulders.
Bras we recommend for sloping shoulders include:
- Choose a style with wider straps so it is more difficult for the straps to slip off the shoulders. Narrower shoulders or sloping shoulders might mean that a bra with wider straps suits you best.
- Leotard back and racer back bras are available, this means the straps are cut closer to the neck rather than the shoulder edge. Or look for a bra with a J hook that makes the bra into a leotard back.
- Bras with centre pull straps have straps that are positioned closer to the neck than the shoulder edge so that there is less chance of them slipping off the shoulder.
- A high apex bra can to help with strap slippage as the cups come up higher in a more triangular shape.
- Don't forget to regularly check your bra size. This is key to getting the perfect fit. Chat to one of our friendly bra specialists on 01439 798388 for help and advice about measuring and sizes before you order. For more advice on bra fitting questions visit our bra fitting guide.
