SHAPERKY Posture Corrector for Women and Men, Adjustable Upper Back Brace for Posture Hunchback Support and Providing Pain Relief from Neck, Shoulder, and Upper Back (1, Small/Medium)

I ordered several posture correcting support ranging from $15 to $65 and this one from Shaperky was right in the middle pricing wise, but was my favorite of the bunch to actually use. The quality was noticeably better than the cheaper ones, but right up there with the more expensive ones. But where this support really stands out from all of the others is the adjustability and comfort. It is the easiest to adjust while wearing (I make a lot of minor adjustments if I'm eating, changing from sitting/standing, etc.). Having separate straps for adjusting fit (velcro strap across torso) and tension on the shoulders (velcro bands located on either side below your armpits) is such a nice feature that is missing from all other supports I tried. The mechanism for pulling the arm straps down to prevent them from digging into my armpits and creating discomfort is another feature noticeably absent from the other supports I tried. It's clear that a lot of care and research went into the design of this support and it really makes all the difference. The only downside I've found with this support is that since it has the option for the hard support along the spine (which I personally don't use), there is a lot of extra material in that area that can be a bit awkward if sitting back in a chair or laying down, but getting into those positions is generally against the point of wearing this in the first place so it doesn't really matter IMO. I ended up returning all other posture supports except this one, which I keep at my desk and use regularly, and a basic $15 support that I keep at my bed for the occasions where I feel I need some support while watching TV and am too lazy to go to my desk to get my main one.

I got this posture corrector as a response to many people telling me that my back was not straight enough and I look crouched over from always being behind my computer. I started using this in conjunction with working out. Bought this product because the stiff metal bar in the back brace gives me the comfort that it will keep my back straight. Overall, it has been very helpful. I have been using it for about 8 hours per day for over a month. No back pain, no issues. At the end of the day, I do feel the tension around the armpit areas. I think for the price, it has an overall good value. Makes me feel more confident that I am using a product that actually has a straight stiff metal bar in the back knowing that my posture will always be correct no matter how I move – and yes, my back is straight while bending over. It even comes with a waist belt expansion. The only downside is that the waist belt doesn’t fall near my waist as I am a tall person.

This product is well made, it fits well, it makes me stand up straighter by pulling shoulders back and pulling rib cage back too- to take bow out of back and neck. So no problem to company, but I put this 3 rating so maybe someone would look at it- being 3 stars, since I only look at 3 to 5, to see what problems I may encounter with an item I am thinking of buying. I want to help anyone who is scared because they had odd lines in eyes and blurry spots like I did. AT first I had no connection between odd colored lines in both eyes, very distracting, bright, semi circle and colored with black divisions, kinda like an indian bead bracelet. Made me kinda worried, but after walking around for 10 minutes it slowly went away. I figured maybe I had stretched my neck wrong as it is likely to have to do with pinched nerve from spine to eyes......I hoped ....and not some kind of loose retina. Then right after wearing a posture correcter for a half hour, the 2nd time,,,,this time I got big circles of blurry in each eye surrounded by the pretty colored lines. This I did not like, as it interfered with my seeing clearly to read the comuter monitor....but figured this time, by the close timing-it was the posture corrector aligning my spine and neck different- that caused it. Walked around the block outdoors to move back , back to where it had been,, and it went away! Whew!! So do wear this a Very short time at first. I think the part that gets pinched is between skull and first neck bone, that goes to eyes. So dont panic, but wear it short time and then move around alot if you get the odd eye lines!! It does show me my spine is really out of alignment more then I thought!! I had worked 20 years in a job where I bent in a half curve over tiny art work I do on my crossed knee, and my back feels comfortable that way by now, but I also stand with a curve outwards to my back at shoulders, which hunches me over and makes it not as easy to breath and I have read-, affects digestion to, so it is worth while to try to stand up straighter again! Oh and it also affects sciatic nerve in lower pelvic, as most of us stand a bit lopsided and I guess this makes one straight from side to side too if the straps are pulled correctly and evenly. Anyway thank you to this product for showing me I need to really work on my back!! :)

I use the Posture Corrector to remind me to stand errect with shoulders back. It also reminds me to keep head up instead of bent. This product is the best of several I have tried in the past. I like that it has a metal bar that can be removed if it seems to be to stiff for some people.

I'm working on getting better posture, a major reason (says my chiropractor) for my shoulder pain and low back pain. This item really makes me remember that I am slouching and helps me correct it. I don't think it actually is responsible for straightening my posture, because if I am tired I can ignore its prompts to me of attempting to hold me in a new position, and I just slouch anyway. But when I'm not tired I can make efforts to correct my posture, and over time I think that I get better and better. It's not a quick fix. It's not even wonderfully comfortable. I wear it for a couple of hours and then I have to take it off, but I'll keep trying each day to increase the time. I think it is a good aid in moving in the right direction. Don't think you will magically be fixed by wearing it, you will need to do back exercises, sit and stand straight, and pay attention to this thing reminding you that you aren't. Hope that helps! But I do like it a lot and think it will help me.

I have had the product in use for over a week, so bear this in mind. Elastic and padding seem to be of decent quality, supportive and comfortable enough. Stitching looks to be sturdy. The velcro attachment and included extender piece seem to be good as well. The teeth on the velcro are shallow and loops seem to be fray resistant. I appreciate the cross back design for added support. The rigid back spline might be a bit uncomfortable for some, but to me it is a reminder that my posture is going out of alignment. If using the product for longer than 8 hours, it may be advisable to take it off for a moment or two to allow the body to adjust. I would also advise washing the product regularly, if you sweat, being mindful of not damaging the elastic with excessive heat. Best brace I’ve tried so far.

So I purchased two braces both the one reviewed here and this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BZ444CJ2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&th=1. This brace is definitely the more comfortable of the two. The larger brace was much bulkier and stiffer with a very large back plate. This brace is much more flexible with side adjustable straps, better padding on the shoulder straps and elastic shoulder straps. Being more elastic they don't cut in but also don't hold your shoulders back as tightly. They serve as a reminder with a much lighter tension. I do think it is enough to keep you in a better postural position. I tried both braces above and below a shirt. Neither was particularly comfortable in that fashion. Overall I decided to keep the one being reviewed here as felt the tension was sufficient to pull shoulders back without cutting in or being uncomfortable.

Al principio trabaja muy bien, después del pasar de las semanas, se estira y no trabaja bien, lo compre para mi papá que le detectaron hernia discal y solo la utilizo 3 semana y de ahi la tiro

It does what it says

An sich ist das Produkt nicht schlecht aber für kleine zierliche Personen ist es nicht geeignet.

Buen ajuste; calidad muy buena. Totalmente recomendable

Super produit

Va benissimo
