Double Shoulder Brace, Breathable Sports Protective Gear for Chronic Tendinitis Pain Relief, Shoulder Strap Brace for Sleeping Outdoor Lifting Sports(M)

I've been trying well over a dozen different shoulder braces - from single shoulder models, to a few double shoulder versions. And of those 12, I'd say that around 5 of them are really nice and suitable for my shoulders. This includes fit items such as how the brace hugs the shoulders, the tightness of the shoulder arms, and the comfort of the straps.I ordered this particular Double Shoulder Brace because it lacked straps. With the other two dual shoulder braces that I ordered, the thin, scratchy feeling straps irritated both of my underarms - so much so that at the end of a wearing period, my underarms looked like they had a severe rash.I ordered this particular model, more out of curiosity. I weigh 180 and am 5'8" - so I ordered the large, assuming at first that the large sized model might be a bit too large. However, quite to the contrary, the large model has a tight fit to be sure. I wear it mostly in a gym environment because after having worked out for 56 years (in the Marine Corps and other locales), I no longer have rotator cuffs in both arms, so having good shoulder support is essential for me.This double shoulder brace stays put, once you've made the adjustment to the angles of the shoulder/arms on both sides. In fact, I now prefer this one to all the others that I've tried. What's so nice is that the brace doesn't ride up or become loose - it stays put, and I love that. Doing various exercises and using different weight machines were no problem at all with this brace - it fit just the way I've always wanted.Now do be advised, that depending on your age (I'm 75), it is not as easy to get this thing on both shoulders unless you are a younger age. As we age, most (but not necessarily all) tend to stiffen up a bit, and I know that for me, I had to lay the dual shoulder brace on the bed while bending backwards and getting my harms simultaneously through both the arm slots (kind of like putting on a jacket). Standing up, while doing this, would have been impossible. And when it comes to taking this brace off, most of you will require another person to help with its removal - I most certainly did.Again, I'm not a large person and the large size fits very snugly, so keep your sizes in mind, and you may want to order a size larger just to be safe. I just ordered another one (as of this writing) as a back-up, so that tells you how much I like this dual shoulder brace.For its ridiculously low price, and for how it supports (I'm talking for me, that is), I'm giving it 5 stars.

I am 6’ 190lbs and the large had the perfect shoulder width to help pull my shoulders back. I don’t work out and don’t have thick arms. It was quickly squeezing my up arms so hard that it hurt and I cut the bicep portion. Some relief but then I realized the stitch around the armpit was also way to tight and hurting. I can’t return because I cut it. It definitely does not fit my body type.

one star off for sizing mismatch. Sizes listed on the site was bit too large despite my meeting it. maybe could have gone size lower, might have helped with a tighter fit. one star off for the terrible smell out of bag. terrible plastic smell only reduced by 2 washings. meh.

I hurt my shoulder over a week ago and have tried two different braces that were ranked highly, they were the kind that go just on the shoulder and have the band going over the rest of your body. They definitely work but not good to sleep in and not the most comfortable. I have not slept good for a week and saw these and thought I would give them a try. All I can say is, I don’t understand why there were bad reviews because it fits great and feels fantastic, as far as helping ease the pain. I have slept with it and had the best night sleep. I’ve had in a week.I got the size small and it fits perfect, a lot of the reviews said that they ran small and go with a bigger size, but I am glad I did not do that, because it would have been too big. I am a man that is 5 foot6 and 145 pounds, so maybe that will help someone in deciding what size to get.

I was using single shoulder braces with straps. They work also. This double brace with no straps, however, was less intrusive and gave me the pressure on around the joint that was sufficient to immediately notice less pain. Sometimes the strap single shoulder units would be too much pressure and the strap around the bicep would creep up. I was surprised how much this double with no strap helped. I have acute pain, and this definitely helped and was easier to wear; much less annoying than the strapped units. Also, this helps a bit with posture, which is a cause of shoulder problems. It did not smell as some people complain. The only issue is a slight sewing problem on one side where the edge has too much fabric and rises up from the front of my shoulder. Does not seem to affect pain relief. Easier to sleep in. If you have pain like I do you will need someone to help you get it on and off, but once it's on it is very comfortable
