Velpeau Arm Sling for Sleep, Shoulder Immobilizer for Women & Men - Very Soft Sling for Rotator Cuff Tear, Fractured, Dislocation, Broken, Postoperative, Fits Left & Right (Blue, L: Bust 39.5-51.3″)

This sling was delivered quickly and new in the packaging. The material is super soft and thick too, not thin polyester like the cheap sling we were given in the ER. The second shoulder strap and the extra wrap around piece are perfect for extra stability and keep the arm of the usually-active 15yr old boy quite immobile. It's particularly good a night so he's not flailing his arm in his sleep.We noticed over time, maybe because the material is so soft, that it does stretch out a bit and get looser; but it can be re-tightened easily with all the velcro, and I've thrown it in the washer/dryer while he's watching TV and that tightens the fabric up again too.It is tricky for him to get the two straps over his shoulder and back around with one hand (the straps criss-cross in the back) but he's stubborn about doing it himself after showering so he has become better at it.He's about 5'8" and 130lbs - fits him perfectly.

This is so much nicer than having to use an ace bandage. It helps stabilize my shoulder, letting it heal quicker.

I was facing shoulder surgery and needed to give my arm a break. You use it more than you realize. This was perfect, comfortable, easy to wear even when I slept, and very soft.The reason I gave it only four stars is because of the sizing and the Velcro.I bought the medium one at first. I’m 5’2” and medium framed. It was too long. The straps that wrapped around my back came all the way up onto themselves around my shoulders before I could attach them. I tried all kinds of configurations but knew they were too long. So I ordered the smaller one.The smaller one was much too small! I feel like Goldilocks. I couldn’t even get the piece that wraps around you around my chest to strap my arm in to keep it from moving. And the long straps that wrap around you? They were too short to adhere too.I’m an average sized, short female, and this didn’t fit. I feel like the small is really and XS for very small framed women or children, and the medium is for models who are tall but thin. I can only imagine how the large fits. They need one more size inbetween S and M to fit the average woman.Also, while at first it worked great, over a month or so of random use, the Velcro definitely started to have issues sticking. This is probably to be expected, but if you get this product, try not to take it on and off too much or you’ll wear it out.I’m still very thankful for this sling, knowing it served its purpose, but I do wish there was one more size to choose from. I bought two and neither was right. Just be aware of which size you buy.

I love the how comfortable it is. Easy to adjust fit to any body if you order the right size. The color is a nice blue, the material is soft to the touch and not scratchy at all. I just wish they would have used more Velcro or a stronger one as the ends roll up if you tighten it to fit snug.

This is the most comfortable brace i have gotten, had reverse total shoulder surgery about 2 months ago, bought another brave was nice but hard to sleep in with the strap across one shoulder and pad attached, was doing ok than at around 2 month mark and doing physical therpy had gotten one stress fracture, 2 weeks later another one, had to go back to wearing brace again for a month, bought this one because it was for fractures and thought it would be more comfortable seeing i now have to wear a brace longer and to sleep in sleeping in the other braces was real uncomfortable and not stable enough to hold my arm in place, seeing the fractures are in the top of my shoulder, it did take me a bit and a little changing it to be able to wear it comfortably, the one down fall was the arm sling. It doesnt have enough support, so i took apart one other sling i had because it came apart completely anyway and used the arm sling inside this arm sling to give it more support and criss crossed the straps in back but secured them differently than the instructions, it holds much more securely and positioned the long body strap simular to photo but on a bit of a downward angle to hold arm sling and it not be able to slide down on the arm when lying down. The only reason i gave it a 4 star was because the arm sling portion needs more stability than just the material and 2 straps with me putting the other section of an old sling i had inside it made it a 10 star in comfort to me, i would buy again if i needed another and still do the same to make it more sturdy for my needs at least.Update: Ive been wearing this brace in differant ways to find most comfortable, what i like is that it can be alterted to strap it in differant ways, its been real comfortable to sleep in when u dont want shoulder to move at all, and during the day i use the arm sling by criss crissing it in back and bringing it under arms in front and fastening it in front and around in front instead of over underneith, and the long wide strap van be wrapped from one side of my shoulder, as a regular sling goes over around bsck of neck to front of arm sling to add more support and comfort during the day. Ive had 2 stress fractors in same shoulder as i had total shoulder replacement and needed to find something that could be worn cimfortably at night and during the day also without bulky straps making my neck hurt. This is amazing and highly recommend if you need to keep a brace on for long periods of time to heal.

Absolute total Chinese garbage. When is Amazon going to realize we’re not all boomers and this corporate mentality of “just send our customers Chinese slop and give them a full refund (to their Amazon account) after we’ve wasted a week of their time” isn’t going to sustain you through what’s currently happening with the economy, especially regarding America and China.Do better, Amazon. Pathetic. Don’t buy!
