Middle hook comes undone?

Has anyone else had the recurring issue, with various different bras with 3-hook fastening, in which the middle hook comes undone? I often come home at the end of the day, take off my bra, and realize the middle hook is undone. This no doubt impacts overall support, and also creates undue strain on the outer 2 hooks. Any ideas as to why this happens?

  • Interesting! This middle hook issue sometimes happens to me when closing the hooks. But when it's hooked, it stays put.

    Only thing I can think of is the division of tension / pressure on the band: like how your bra band usually leaves marks from the upper and lower horizontal line of elastic (if that makes sense - weird to explain).

    So maybe there's less tension on the middle hook, and then it pops open. But still don't think it should happen?

  • Are you sure this doesn't happen when you are putting your bra on? I, like bubblegum , sometimes have this trouble when I am putting on a 3-hook strap. I get the 1st and 2nd hook (top and middle) together, and when I am hooking up the 3rd (bottom) hook, the middle hook comes undone, so I have to re-group.

    I've never had a middle hook come undone after I've gotten them all together, while I'm wearing it.
