ASPEN Lumbar Support Back Brace, Patented Pulley System with Targeted Compression, Pain Relief for Men & Women, Large, 36"-42"

Ideal device for back pain relief with adjustable straps.

I'd been prescribed a more heavy-duty Aspen back support brace by my doctor which gave great support and pain relief but it really was too bulky to wear under clothing. I'm female and this might not be an issue for a male. This Aspen brace is less intrusive visually and provides good support and therefore pain relief. It works for me when out of the house. I'd originally ordered one size too small which I returned. This second order arrived next day after ordering in excellent condition. Another reviewer had cautioned to 'size up' if close to the end range and I didn't which resulted in my returned item. You want plenty of overlap to get the right compression for your back's requirements.

Good product at a fair price.\. Wanted a stiff plate in middle of the back otherwise OK.

This back support provides excellent support. The top and bottom are adjusted separately and support can be fine tuned as needed. An excellent feature of this system is that support can be quickly adjusted for seated vs standing wear. I need support while standing, but release tension while seated to match my needs.I notice that there are quite a few complaints. These complaints are based on unrealistic expectations. This is an entry level product made by Aspen Medical. It is not an equivalent option or alternative to the prescription grade, medical supports in their product line. Those supports cost $80-$200 and more. Any comparison is unrealistic and simply stupid. I wear this support over a t shirt and under nicer clothes.It is not the kind of support for doing heavy lifting or any sort of labor. The Velcro hook and loop fastening system is incredibly strong and of the highest quality. One must follow the instructions to keep it strong. Upon removal, fasten each side to the opposing side. This prevents the Velcro from getting fouled with lint and anything else that weakens the bond. A stiff brush can be used to clean the hook side if fouled. It is easier to keep it clean rather than clean it.This is an excellent support if used for the correct purposes.It is absolutely a recommended buy.

I have purchased this for my parents and it’s really comfortable for their waist pain.It’s really great quality with very easy comfort and can wear for hours without any issues.

This is the second one I bought. I like the design and comfort and support, but the tightening strings loose grip on Velcro after a while.

Too small, I need an XL

This is the perfect belt for me. Since having two back surgeries I sometimes need a little support. I really like how the belt is made of quality and the pull cords cinch it in the right place
