Good, with small Modifications
A nice reminder for better posture, although the back likes to ride up to the neck, as another reviewer noted. It ends up pinching the back of the neck if it's not corrected.<br /><br />I modded this by sewing a durable strap that hangs down the center of the back. That way, when the brace starts to ride up, I just tug at the strap until it adjusts back to where it should be.<br /><br />The velcro and straps are very strong. After adjusting them to your preferences, they won't be loosening anytime soon.<br /><br />The pads are comfortable, but a bit bulky.. so unless you're wearing a jacket over it, it'll be obvious when wearing outdoors. I personally find it better just wearing around the house.<br /><br />By the way, when doing small tasks while wearing the support, it is almost disabling for the arms. It'll start to cut off circulation to the arms, making it uncomfortable. I can't even type on the computer while having a problem, and the straps are barely tight enough to keep the shoulders pulled back to a healthy posture. It can be remedied by loosening the shoulder straps, but by doing that ruins the shoulder support. In other words, it's only good to wear when walking or when not moving around the arms in front of you--such as watching TV.<br /><br />Overall, I'm glad I bought it. It's already helped with my posture, and after a couple of months of wearing on-and-off, I can now see my shoulders having a more correct posture without wearing the support.
