crossback

X-shaped shoulder support

Crossback describes a garment design where straps cross over each other at the back rather than running parallel: a crossback sports bra, crossback apron.

The style distributes weight differently and often stays in place better during movement.

As a noun, crossback names the design itself or a garment featuring it.
