PRO: The double compression effect of wearing a chest strap with high impact sports bra (which can cause side splints) is no longer an issue. This strap completely solves that problem.
MEH: For high intensity sports other than running, where your torso does more twisting, this strap stays in place a little longer than a traditional strap, but does eventually still fall
CON: When using this strap for olympic lifting or similar, I really notice that this chest strap sticks out more than other models, so not only do I hit it with the barbell on the way down, but also because of how it clasps and how it sits outside the bra, I have opened the front clasp during a lift several times. Surprisingly, this hasn't broken the clasp, but is definitely a safety concern
CON: I have used several different makes/models of chest straps, but this is the only one that STINKS. I follow the recommended cleaning process of rinsing it after every use and soaking it once a week. I have tried soaking it in laundry disinfectant which has worked very well on other sweaty sports equipment, but I can't get the odor out of this strap
