EVS Sports SB05 Shoulder Brace | Compression Support & X-Strap Stabilization | Breathable Adjustable Fit

I wish I had found this brace years ago! It has totally turned my life around, allowing me to enjoy sports (specifically, hockey) again at 45 years old. I am not a professional athlete by any means, but I love playing ice hockey and I've had more than my fair share of bumps and bruises as well as injuries over the years. Early in my career, I dislocated my shoulder severely, which required multiple surgeries. Eventually I wore down that joint so bad that it had to be replaced with an artificial joint. My shoulder pain was constant (before and after the surgery), and as I got into my 40s, it seemed to get worse, especially when I played hockey or did anything that required using my arms. I wore a sling brace for a while, and it helped, but then I'd get arm pit pain from overuse of that brace. Then I separated my good shoulder last year, so I needed a brace to protect both shoulders and after much research, I settled with this product. At first, when I received the product, I had difficulty figuring out how to put it on (it is tricky), but once I had it on, I could feel that my shoulders felt supported. For the first few games, I tried wearing both my sling and shoulder brace, but eventually stopped using the sling and just used this. It has eliminated all the pain I used to receive while playing hockey (such for example, when people would slash my stick, the vibrations would travel up my arm and into my shoulder as pain, but no longer with this brace). In fact, the pain I'd get after a game or workout has also been reduced due to this brace. And if there's something around the house that will require me exerting effort and using my shoulders, I'll put this brace on, because it really helps keep my shoulder from slipping, and providing it with the support needed. I feel like if I had found this brace years ago, I could have prevented having to replace my shoulder ten years ago. Bottom line, my shoulder will never be 100% again, but this brace has been the closest thing in revitalizing my life and bringing enjoyment back into a sport that I love and thought I'd have to give up due to pain. I can't give it enough stars, because I feel much happier in my life now that I can continue sport activities without enduring adverse pain.

I got this because my job requires that I lift heavy stuff. I have a torn rotator cuff on both shoulders, and it makes it almost impossible to do my job, and causes severe pain. I needed something to helps stabilize my shoulders, so I tried this. It helps a lot, and I highly recommend it for anyone with shoulder or neck and upper back issues. Runs small so measure shldr/chest, & if close to max. measurement, go next size up.

I originally purchased this product because I have pain behind my right shoulder blade area, on my upper back. I don't have shoulder issues, but I was desiring to find a brace that would offer more support to my upper back. I'm a hula hoop entertainer. During my shows I'm constantly using my shoulders and back. Overall, this brace helped to support my upper back. It felt like I was less likely to get injured while doing activities. If you do have shoulder problems, I could see this brace could potentially be challenging to get on. Fitting the brace without the help of another person requires some shoulder and back movement, which could potentially aggravate an injury. Since I don't have a shoulder problem, I don't have to worry about that as much. Overall for my situation, I find use in this brace. Make sure you get the correct size. Don't guess, actually measure the circumference of your chest following the size chart before buying. This brace is a tight and snug fit.

Not good the product runs way to small I’m a medium I ordered a large had to return it for an extra large hopefully that’s not to small, so size up a whole size or two, also the quality of the brace is good

Runs small & cuts into arms

fits great as the shoulder size is good for medium vs small

Only 1 adjustment for the arms. Unless your arms are the size of a 5 yr old then it will cut off circulation. The bicep area is adjustable but not the armpit area. It makes a perfect bilateral tourniquit. I was at the lower end of XL so I figured it might be on the loose side but I was wrong. You can't raise your arms or it will just ride up no matter how tight you adjust the chest. Had to use suspenders to keep it down and split the seam in the armpit area to increase blood flow. So then it eventually tore open. But it does support you well if you are static and not using your arms. You'll need help donning and adjusting this if you have bilateral cuff injuries. With proper mods this could be a great product

I ordered this brace because I already wear A back brace throughout the day to help keep me stable (Hypermobility takes its toll otherwise), But my shoulders were still migrating forward, no matter what. The first day I put it on, and then took a few steps around the house, I felt like an invincible cyborg warrior. My gosh! Is this how “normal bodies” hold themselves together without even thinking about it?! Granted, I can’t really wear it out of the house unless it’s Turtleneck weather, Because Of how high it Fastens in front— But I wasn’t looking for a fashion accessory, I was looking for a well-made, fully adjustable brace and that’s exactly what this is. If you have “rounded shoulders” or have struggled with cervical spine issues, I would recommend at least a trial. Removing The weight-bearing and body Immobilization load from muscles, rather than the ligaments and tendons that should have been doing those jobs, can be a revelation. Good luck, everyone.

Prodotto restituito perché troppo piccolo, quello che posso dire riguardo al prodotto e che non puzzava di gomma.

Very strong. Keeps both shoulders firm.

Douleur à certain endroit à long terme normal je crois mais fait là job

Un poco incomodo y caluroso al principio, pero despues de un rato te acostumbras, falta ver que tan durable es.

Muy alta calidad
