Peculiar problem
I just received the Lynx sports bra that I ordered 5 days ago (ordered it from Less Bounce). The bra itself feels stellar (quality is top notch) but the fit is not, for me that is. I just sent Lynx an e-mail asking them if they'd be willing to perform some alterations as a custom order for me and right after sending it, I realized those alterations would lead to a bigger problem: I probably wouldn't be able to put it over my head. You see, I'd need the straps to be shortened 8-10 cm, I'd need them to be moved in about an inch from each side, and also, I'd need the bust area to be about 5 cm higher. As I can barely get my head through the hole right now (it's not hard but there's not much wiggle room), how would I be able to even if they did decide to do a custom order for me? Sweet Jesus, the problems one can have when it comes to bra fit xD Anyone else who has this problem when it comes to sports bras? If you'd order a bra with the same cut as the Lynx, that is.

I think I just had a brilliant idea. I'm writing it down here so I won't forget. If they DO agree to make a custom order and point out this issue (I will if they don't notice it), I'll just suggest that they add some hooks and eyes to the straps! If they'd separate them and have hooks on one end, and eyes on the other, I'd be able to get the bra over my head first, and then hook the straps in place! If they're placed about where my collarbones are, I shouldn't have any troubles with carrying things over my shoulders (like if I were to carry a crossbody training bag), no digging in or anything like that. Still, I'm interested in if anyone of you have this problem :) Also, any other suggestions on how you'd solve the too-small-opening-for-my-head-issue?
