Copper Fit X-Back Brace for Lower Back Pain, Lumbar Support, Herniated Disc, Sciatica, Arthritis – Adjustable, Breathable Design - for Men and Women (Large/XLarge)

Short intro - as a mid-50's guy I of course managed to throw out my back helping our contractor lift a bathtub up the stairs. The Wife bought me one of these, against my wishes as I'm a great strong heroic lion of a man and don't need old-man gimmicks like this.I was very, very wrong. This thing is fantastic. It fits comfortably and securely, and I immediately, within a few minutes, felt all that back paid to be significantly reduced. Reduced to the point of being able to bend down and pick things up without worrying about getting frozen there - other than some mild twinges now and then I'm back to full function.The brace is well made and comfortable to the point where I went to sleep in it one night. I've been happy to keep it on daily just to not worrying about having full mobility and support, and in particular so that I won't get frozen in my desk chair as I sink slowly down until my eyes are level with my keyboard.In terms of fit, I'm 5'9" and 170lbs, 30" waist (28" at Old Navy). The "Small" size fits me very well though I'm at the lower bound of fit; if I was a bit thinner or lighter I'd need to see if there was a still-smaller option. You could probably fit in the Small size if you are up to around 185-ish lbs - I'd err on the smaller size as it's elastic and designed to be tightened snug. Plus it kind of looks cool and futuristic.The way I think about my highest recommendation is that if for some reason this thing was lost or damaged I'd immediately buy another of the exact same type the same day.

I am using the back brace as I have Sciatica and causes my lower back pain to also go into buttocks and legs. I started using this back brace and it is easy to put on and adjust to your needs. I use it at work as I am a professor at a University that keeps me on my feet most of the day. This back brace works very well to stop the pain so I can make it through the day. Easy to adjust tension to your needs and no issues with sitting either. This one works where others I have tried didn’t. Quality materials, and proper support while walking, standing, sitting, driving etc.DrDave. Utah, USA

Well worth the money if you have a bad back -men or women.I purchased one for myself and after my boyfriend used it for a day he ordered on for himself as well. It does make a difference and you can feel it after you wear. I was surprised as I have tried a number of braces over the years.Great support, easy to tighten up and not too bulky.

Back Brace. Runs short.I’m tall and it is too short for me, plus a very hard piece digs into my back and hurts me. This copper brace It is not good for a tall female size 12. I returned it

This product works great. As soon as I put it on it reduced the pain in my back. I highly recommend this product for everyone that deals with lower back issues.

The brace works well for back issues. My BIGGEST complaint is the velcro doesn't stick together any more. I have only worn it when I work. So I've had it for 6 months and only worn it about 48 times and it's useless. Doesn't stay closed. Too late to return. Will not buy Tommy copper again.

This advertised back brace is everything you need if you have back trauma. I highly recommend this product. The support it gives my back has allowed me to walk without pain.

Very comfortable to wear, easy to adjust. Very good support where it is needed.
