    Yeah, Veloputt
    I have a Triumph Tri-Action.
    It is so nice and seamless with stretchy straps and velcro for easy adjustment. Best of all it is a front-y
    Never figured out how to do a bra up at the back. Also have had long periods of limited arm movement ( mastectomy and a horrendous tractor accident) and fronties helped me stay independent.
    I also think all the "reverse engineering" of seams, 3 sets of hooks and eyes, and overlapping fabric just ruins the asthetics of that beautiful expanse of a woman's back.

    All you need is love...la-dee-da-dee-da...all you need is love!

    Guess I've just gotten used to rear hooks as that was the only option I was exposed to nearly 30 years ago when I started wearing bras!

    Besides the looks, hooks on the back can be painful, too. I have to be careful w/ where the hook hits on the backbone, else are a literal pain doing situps!

    I've found a Walcoal w/ front closure and has some stiffness to the cups for the nice "t-shirt" look w/out feeling like armour plating, and a nice and comfortable strap design in the back... It's currently one of my favorites for "day" use.

    Front zipper sports bras usually don't work for me, but I'm wearing out a Pearl Izuma front zip sports bra that was nice that it had a locking zipper (as w/out a lock, I've found some creep down on their own accord), and good strap adjustments.

    your not the only one. i'm not good at it either. i have to latch them in front and then spin it around my tummy and put it on that way.

    i'm just not coordinated enough to latch it behind me.
