CORRECT Dowager's Hump
10☆s !!!!! YOU NEED THIS !!! GET IT, I LOVE IT !!!!!I have a protrusion of bone beginning to stick out at the top of my spine, from poor posture, i've researched it and found its called a Dowager's Hump :(((.I needed something to correct it stat!!! I was told in time it could worsen to a hunched over posture :(((. Then I found this♡♡♡♡♡......I love the comfort"ability", I place it far out to the top corners of my shoulders that's where it belongs to pull the shoulders back and open, the key purpose of this support. You do not need to make it tight, in fact make it as loose just enough to pull your shoulders gently back, that's where you can keep it comfortably and feels good, not cumbersome. I reeeally love the way it feels natural, yet effective. If you don't make it toooo tight, you can wear it longer, and that's exactly what you want to do train your shoulders to sit down and back, lifting your chest open. if it's cutting under your underarms you have it too tight, just leave it at the corners of your shoulders, that's the proper placement, and it shouldn't cut into your underarms as some complained, bc that's too inward, wrong placement. I'm a 38 Bust and I have super broad shoulders, I was developing a Dowager's Hump at the top of my spine as mentioned earlier, from my shoulders encroaching inward and caving in on my chest, I saw a chiropractor who tried to sell me adjustments for the little price of $700 and more $$$1k++, the price was ridiculous !! I certainly don't want to become Mrs. Quasimodo , sooo I've purchased this, I wish there was white and tan instead of only black soo I can use it with many outfits instead of going without. I really like the manufacturer's choice of velcro, this is the kind of velcro that should be used instead of the coarse grabby ones. I REEEALLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS POSTURE CORRECTOR ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ 10☆Z !!!!Few things I'd tweak:Make the ends of the velcros not as large it keeps getting stuck onto the fabric of my tops, it doesn't apply to me, but little longer velcro to fit larger chest and shoulders, theres a good 6 more inches to extend in the front on the design, but how aaawesome they included an extension velcro, also, make the material a little more breathable to not cause tooo much of underbust and back sweats, also more neutral colors options: tan, white, gray, perhaps.It's a pretty well thought out product and does exactly what you need it to do, get your posture corrected, GET IT!! DON'T HESITATE !

My wife loves this thing
If you find yourself getting older and you need to brace your shoulders back, just a little really helps your back. Life loves it. This is a bye for anybody who has upper back problems or neck

Effective, affordable, could use comfort improvements. Would recommend still
I recently purchased the Shaperky posture corrector after my orthopedist suggested something like this to help support my clavicle after a bicycle crash that dislocated my right clavicle. I researched several options online and here on Amazon, and decided this sounded like the best solution for me. And the price was right.Have been wearing it fairly regularly now for almost 5 weeks, it has helped decrease my discomfort and helped to stabilize my injury. Just a couple issues prevent me from giving it five stars.One, that it's a little bit tricky to adjust properly to get the necessary support and comfort. I have gotten much better at it but it's still a little bit annoying.Two, living in Hawaii I wear light and sleeveless tops a lot, and this tends to cause a bit of discomfort on my underarms. So I've taken to wearing heavier than I might otherwise, short sleeve cotton shirts which has helped. Not sure any of the other designs would be a whole lot better at this.I've worn it for over 10 hours a day on several occasions and have been okay, including on a few challenging hikes on hot humid days. Overall I'm pleased with the support. A great great byproduct of wearing the device is that it has definitely helped improve my posture! I think we can all use that.

Maximum comfort for women, great for working at a desk
I have struggled with back pain for decades. Over the years, my posture has gotten worse and because I work at a computer most of the day, I find myself slumped over my desk/keyboard. I was also blessed (cursed?) with a large bust and this increases my back pain.My doctor suggested I try a back brace to alleviate the pain and posture problems and I have tried several. I found the other back braces cut into my shoulders or didn't fit comfortably. I nearly passed over this product because it was less expensive than some of the others I had tried - I assumed it couldn't work if it cost less. What a pleasant surprise!I LOVE this brace for many reasons:1) I can wear it for hours and be completely comfortable. Some of the other braces would cause pain immediately or grow uncomfortable within a few minutes.2) I can wear it under loose clothing and no one can tell I have it on. Some of the other braces are so large that they can only be worn OVER clothes, or they're so bulky that people can see you're wearing a brace.3) I'm slightly overweight and the straps are adjustable to make it comfortable. Other braces were too tight or required extension pieces to fit, and I think the extensions made it not fit properly causing more discomfort. With the Caretras brace, I can wear it comfortably and my smaller sister can wear it comfortably as well. No problem!4) It's so easy to put on! Other products have multiple straps and adjustments that are needed in order to secure it in place. The Caretras has only one strap to connect when I put it on.5) There are no sharp edges or metal/plastic pieces that cut into my back, shoulders or sides. Some of the other braces were painful due to the materials used to make the brace.6) My back pain has decreased significantly since I started wearing the Caretras brace. I naturally sit upright when I'm wearing it. It actually feels good to have it on, and even when I'm not wearing it, my back pain has subsisded.Thank you for the thoughtful design and the comfortable material. I rarely write reviews for products but this one deserves praise. 5 stars!
