Didn't realise how much I slump
First day wearing it I caught myself slumping about ten times an hour. That's the point, I suppose. Two weeks in and I sit up before I even notice I'm doing it.

Week oneFirst day wearing it I caught myself slumping about ten times an hour. That's the point, I suppose. Two weeks in and I sit up before I even notice I'm doing it.
I had a constant dull ache right between the shoulder blades from desk work. Wore this for the first half hour of each morning and by week three the ache had mostly gone. Not instant, but it got there.
My physio kept telling me to work on my posture and I kept forgetting. This does the remembering for me. Half an hour with my morning emails and that's it.
What surprised me is my posture is better even when I'm not wearing it. It's more like training wheels than a brace. Twenty minutes a day is genuinely all I do.
I was worried it would show through my uniform but nobody has said a thing. Sits flat under a normal work shirt.
It doesn't force you into position, it just tugs enough that you notice. That's what I wanted.
I put it on with my first coffee and take it off before my 10am meeting. Easy habit to keep.
My wife went on about my hunching for years and finally bought me this. Annoyingly, it works. I catch myself straightening up in the car now without it on.
I've tried a rigid brace before and hated it. This one just pulls the shoulders back softly, more of a nudge than a hold. Much easier to actually wear.
Straps adjust easy, mesh back doesn't get sweaty at my desk. No complaints.
First couple of days I had it too tight and it pinched under the arms. Loosened it off and now I barely notice it's there. Read the instructions, basically.
The odd thing is it keeps working when it's off. I was slouching at the dinner table and straightened up out of habit. That's after about a month of half hour wears.
The tension I used to carry between my shoulder blades by Friday afternoon has dropped right off. I only wear it for my first work block of the day.
Solid bit of kit. Posture's better after three weeks.
I've got sticky notes on my monitor telling me to sit up. This works better than all of them put together.
Working from home on a kitchen stool wrecked my upper back. I wear this for the first half hour each morning and the back has stopped complaining by lunch.
The first time you slump wearing it you feel the straps catch and you realise that's what you've been doing all day. Very effective wake up call.
Wear it under a business shirt most mornings and nobody at work has noticed. The mesh panel keeps it from getting clammy on the train.
I assumed I'd have to wear it all day. You don't, and apparently you shouldn't. Twenty to thirty minutes with my morning admin does the job.
Happy with it. Straps were easy to set for my build.
You're not buying a brace, you're buying the awareness of every time you drop your shoulders. After a few weeks that awareness sticks around without it.
Wear it for my first study block of the morning. My neck and upper back used to be cooked by evening, much less so now.
Showed it to my osteo expecting to be told off. She said short sessions like this are exactly the sort of reminder she recommends, just not all day. A month in, my upper back is noticeably looser.
I split time between site and quoting at the desk. Desk days used to leave me hunched like a question mark. Half an hour of this in the morning sorts me out.
The mesh back panel is the reason I kept it. My old one was neoprene and I couldn't stand it past ten minutes. This one I forget about.
Sixty odd years of slouching and this thing is undoing some of it. I wear it with the paper and my coffee each morning. My wife says I look taller, which at my age I'll take.
On at 8:30, off at 9. It's part of starting work now, like opening the laptop.
I had a stiff brace years ago that held me in place and taught me nothing. This one lets you slump and then reminds you, which sounds worse but is exactly why it works.
That burning spot between the shoulder blades that used to show up around 2pm just doesn't anymore. Took about three weeks of morning wears to notice the difference.
Ten years at a desk and my shoulders were rolled forward permanently. A month of short sessions with this and mates are asking if I've been at the gym.
Goes on in ten seconds over a singlet, off before meetings. Easy.
I'm 68 and stooped a little more every year. This won't undo everything but I stand straighter after a few weeks of wearing it with breakfast. My daughter noticed before I did.
Walked past a shop window and stood up straighter out of pure reflex. That's new. I've only been doing half hour morning wears for three weeks.
You can't think about posture all day, you have work to do. This does the thinking for the first half hour and it seems to carry through.
Arthritis in my hands and I can still get this on and off myself. The straps adjust without much strength needed. That mattered more to me than anything else.
Started wearing it mornings before work. My shoulders sit back naturally under the bar now. Wasn't expecting that.
I chart hunched over a computer for hours. Wearing this at the start of my shift means my upper back doesn't scream by the end. Fits under scrubs without anyone noticing.
As described. Adjusts fine for a bigger bloke. No dramas.
My partner bought it for himself and I pinched it. We've now got one each. I use mine with my morning emails, he wears his watching the cricket.
No app, no gimmicks. The elastic pulls your shoulders back when you slump and you straighten up. After a fortnight the straightening started happening on its own.
I was sceptical about the 20 to 30 minutes a day advice and figured more would be better. Overdid it the first week and got sore under the arms. Dialled back to half an hour like they say and it's been good since.
Good buy. Sits flat under a tee and does the job.
Six weeks of short morning wears. My husband has stopped commenting on my hunch, which is how I know it's working. The ache under my right shoulder blade is down to almost nothing.
Docked a star because the first week it dug in under my arms and I nearly gave up. Turns out I had it far too tight. Loosen it so it reminds rather than restrains and it's a different product.
Works well and I can feel the difference in my shoulders already. Just know it does show under a thin tee, so I wear it at home or under thicker shirts.
Does the job on my rounded shoulders. Gets warm across the back even now in winter, so I suspect summer will be interesting. Mornings only for me.
Took me a solid week of fiddling to find the right strap tension. Too tight and it pinches, too loose and it does nothing. Once you find the middle it's very good.
I'm a broad unit and right at the top of the size range. It fits, but only just, and there's not much give left in the straps. Works well now it's on, but if you're broader than average I'd think about it first.
My physio told me to build the habit rather than rely on a brace, and this fits that brief. Only gripe is the strap ends flap about once adjusted and I have to tuck them in.
Pretty good. Straps could be a touch longer for a big frame. Posture is better after a month.
It does train you, my posture is better even without it on now. Four stars because it's visible under anything fitted, so plan your outfit around it.
Good product once you stop treating it like a seatbelt. Wound it right off after the first day of pinching under the arms and it's been comfortable since.
Does exactly what it says and I catch my slump within seconds now. Runs a bit warm in a heated office so I stick to early mornings.
Sceptical at first but the shoulder blade ache I've carried for two years is noticeably better after five weeks. One star off because setting the straps for my frame took real trial and error.
Comfortable once adjusted and I do stand straighter. Wish the instructions said more about how tight is right, I guessed wrong for days.
Works. Just don't overtighten it like I did, your armpits will let you know.
It reminds you to sit up, and that's genuinely useful. But the reminding is all it does, you still have to do the work yourself. My back is somewhat better, not transformed.
Three weeks in. I notice my slump more, which I suppose is progress, but the ache between my shoulders hasn't shifted much yet. Will keep at it.
Does what it claims but I run hot and even with the mesh my back gets sweaty in a heated office. Can't see myself wearing it come January.
Took me over a week to find a tension that didn't pinch under the arms or feel pointless. It's fine now but the adjustment period tested my patience.
It's okay. Posture is a bit better. I expected the pull to be stronger, it's a very light reminder.
However I adjusted it, it either dug in under my arms or sat too loose to do anything. Maybe my proportions, maybe the design. Return was sorted quickly with no fuss, so no complaints there.
Gave it a fair go for two weeks but I could never forget I was wearing it, and not in a good way. It kept riding up. My son uses it now and gets on fine with it, so maybe it's just me.
Ordered mid June and it turned up almost four weeks later with no tracking updates in between. The corrector itself seems fine but that wait was not on.
