Sparthos Shoulder Brace - Support Sleeve for Torn Rotator Cuff, AC Joint Pain Relief - Arm Immobilizer Strap Wrap - Fits Bicep 14-30 in, Left or Right, Men & Women - Measure Before Purchase - XXL

Let me explain. This is a great product. I have been suffering from shoulder pain for quite a while. My pain is caused more by ligaments and not muscular but it probably helps both. I like that it helps keep my shoulder stable. Most of my pain is when i try and relax my arm and my shoulder feels like its sliding down. This product keeps it firm in place and helps relieve my muscles from having to stay tense all the time. The pouch for hot and cold pads is also a great plus to this product. I alternate between hot and cold gel pads and it really helps. It seems the be well constructed and the sewing is firm and should last a long time. Once you get the sizing correct it becomes really comfortable to wear and can be worn for a long time without discomfort from it.Which brings me to my slightly lower point of this shoulder brace.The only thing that I had a problem with was the sizing. I am not really a big guy. i have skinny arms and a fatter torso. I bought the universal thinking it would work. Surprisingly it was the right size around my torso but it was way too tight on my arm. I could not strap it around my arm. The universal size does seem to run really small around the arm. I went ahead and bought the XXL. When it came in, the shoulder part fits around my arm much better but the strap around my torso was too big and almost wrapped around my entire body before clasping. I could not easily put it on myself and secure it. The good thing about having both sizes was the torso strap is completely removable. I was able take the torso strap off the smaller universal sized one and installed it on the XXL shoulder pad. At this point it was a perfect fit! Great product if you can get the right fit.Since the arm strap is not removable it really limits the proper sizing to be universal. I don't ever recommend buying what you don't need, but with the low price of this item I would recommend buying both sizes and then it can be truly interchangeable for yourself as well as others that might need to use it. With both sizes you can then mix and match the torso straps as well as the shoulder portion.Other than the sizing this is a great overall product and you will not be disappointed in getting it (or both).Good luck!

I bought this for my daughter who is larger and larger chested. It fits her well. It is adjustable for many large sizes and easy to use. It offers the perfect amount of compression therefor making it great for pain relief. The velcro is great on it.

I bought a $44 brace from a company that could deliver in a couple of days. I was desperate for relief and Amazon would take too long to deliver here. That brace is a quality brace, but it didn’t fit well around my bicep and irritated my armpit. This Spartacus brace provides adjustable bicep support and is a little longer in the upper arm. It doesn’t rub my underarm, and it provides good shoulder compression. It’s easy to to put on by myself. I needed my husband’s help with the other one. It’s a lighter weight than the other brace which should help with the heat and humidity, and I do a lot of yard work. Seeing an ortho doc to get diagnosed takes time here and this brace is helping stabilize my shoulder and minimize the pain untii l can be seen and get a PT referral. I’d give it a 5 but I’ve just started using it.Update: I wore this for 6 hours today and my one complaint is the buckle the Velcro strap goes through to secure it around the bicep is uncomfortable on the underside of my upper arm. It can’t be moved since it’s stitched in place. Wearing it for fewer hours at a time will be ok.

Too large for me. I ordered the universal size, but not the right size for me so it didn't work very well, and i'm returning it. I found it very uncomfortable, and then I figured out that the cause was that it was simply too large.On the positive side, it did appear to be well constructed and sturdy.

I recently injured my rotator cuff again. This is what I needed. I tried ace bandages and several odd ball wraps , nothing stayed in place or didn’t work. This works well and a great price. It is very big. I’m a big dude , big chest 58”and arms 21”, many years at the gym and I was worried this wouldn’t fit as I wear 3xl shirts. It’s almost too big for me . It just fits me with straps pulled completely tight. It works great for me and helps with that terrible pain associated with rotator cuff injuries.

Easy to put on. Comfortable. Decreased shoulder pain.

The brace was good at first. I used it for three solid days and it was good, however after that, the strap buckle on the bicep started to turn and pinch my skin big time. The support and pain relief was good but I'd rather deal with my should wr pain then the constant pinching of my skin. I have welts and bad bruises now that are very sensitive now.
