PainFX Shoulder Brace for Men with Rotator Cuff Support and Adjustable Compression Sleeve - Lightweight and Breathable, Prevents Dislocations & Speed Up Recovery from AC Sprains, Bursitis and Tears

After having two seperate surgeries to repair my labrum cartilage after two seperate posterior tears I have yet again torn the cartilage. This has ultimately left me with issue ranging from pain to constant problems with my shoulder dislocating. I have refused another surgery as the first two weren't permanent fixes and refuse to go through that pain and anguish for a third time. So I looked into alternative ideas and found this brace and I couldn't be happier. Since purchasing this brace I have noticed a significant drop in my pain level, the frequency of my shoulder dislocating, and have also noticed a moderate increase in range of motion. The brace is extremely comfortable once you fidget with it to gain the right amount of pressure and position, it does well with wicking away moisture, and most of all it does what its intended for by helping to relieve pain and dislocation. I highly recommend this product to anyone with shoulder issue looking for relief before, after, or even amidst surgery.

Pros: reasonable pricing, looks good, durable stitchingCons: not very breathable, washing, Velcro refuses stick after awhile.I have gone through 6 of these braces in the past 2 years. The design of having the hooked portion of the Velcro strap stick directly to the back of brace kills the longevity of the product. It would have been better to add a portion of the felt so the Velcro would hold. Also, the design of having the arm strap go all the way around allows the excess strap to slip out from under eventually detaching from the hooked portion of the velcro. Having a ring to loop the strap through and the back around the arm would give a more reliable hold.

I purchased this for my carpenter husband who has chronic shoulder issues. This wrap has helped him tremendously! He's been using that right arm to build things for 35 years, he has a lot of wear, this has been such a help in supporting his shoulder! He loves the extra strap that allows for an ice pack, how much better does it get?! Lastly, he is a XXL build, his chest is 52" and biceps are really big (I think I measured 17") finding something sized for an actual large build has been challenging, this wrap fits TRUE to measurements provided.If you need shoulder support, this is exactly as advertised.

Supposed to be able to put on by yourself, it took me and my wife and with that it is a pointless device. The pain in my shoulder increased 2 times or better compared to nothing on my shoulder, but at least now I know there's no such thing as a shoulder brace. The only compression is on the bicep which added to the pain of a dislocated shoulder. The instructions are 4 pictures of what appears to be an incredibly muscular body putting this thing on in the dark

I got a size too big. I meant to send it back for a smaller size but I was on vacation and by the time I got back I missed the deadline, oops my bad. Seems to be well made and would be comfortable. For now it just sits in my closet unused.

After a bike mishap, I need to ice a shoulder a lot. The PainFX brace is outstanding! It's very well designed and secures the ice packs and sheets securely, which is hard to do without a shoulder brace. It is made with high-quality, thick, durable materials, not just thin stretchy fabric and skimpy fasteners . It allows for all manner of adjustments and works for either shoulder. The brace comes with info from the company on how to exchange it for a different size or what to do if you have a problem -- they really stand behind their product I'm really impressed with this brace and would certainly recommend it. And I'll definitely keep it for my NEXT bum shoulder...

First the straps are too short, it does not fit proper at all around the shoulder. If you want to use an ice pack, it will fall out, the material is scratchy and uncomfortable.

I'm a bigger guy but love to powerlift and lift heavy. Lately I've been having shoulder pain and having a hard time sleeping due to this pain and laying on my shoulder. I got a large Brace and it fit perfectly, helped with alot of my pain, and is extremely comfortable when im lifting and just relaxing!
