★★★★☆
Great design and price with a couple of cons!
Overall, I really like this posture corrector and although I do not use it as a crutch by any means, I do use it to get my muscles used to being pulled back and it does also relieve the tightness in my pectoral muscles. There are definitely more pros than there are cons, but there still are some downsides to this brace.
Pros:
*Stretchy & soft
*Easy to put on
*Releases tension
*Builds muscle memory
*Does as advertised
*Washer & dryer friendly
*Workout friendly
Cons:
*Must be worn over sleeves or else armpit chaffing occurs.
*I have a fairly small frame (110 lbs, 5”3) and I do have to pull the straps all the way to the tops of my shoulders, which causes them to occasion bunch up).
*Causes a sore back but that’s not necessarily it’s fault, but more so my body and muscles adjusting to it.
*Since I have to wear it over clothing, it makes my shirt bunch up in weird places
I recommend this product to anyone who is trying to improve your posture, but most importantly you need to rely on yourself to put in most of the work! Strengthen the upper back (traps, shoulders, lats, etc.), core and glutes.
