Perfect for us hunched over our computers all day
I received mine earlier today and I can see this is going to do me some good. I'm 5'3, 150lbs with a somewhat muscular build and this fits me rather snug. The shoulder straps kind of dig as it definitely sits closer to my shoulders than my neck line as shown in the photos. I purchased the tan colour compared to the black as I felt tan would be easier to hide under lighter shirts when the need would arise (especially in summer).I have two gripes :- The stomach strap is fastened by velcro : so you're fixing one strap on top of the other, which can get thick. It's roughly 1/2 inch thick, which will show under any looser form-fitting clothes.- I wish the stomach strap could be tightened further than what it is. I'm by no means a skinny guy, but I feel a tighter wrap on the stomach strap would provide more support for my back. Right now I feel a good tug on my shoulders for posture, but I feel the support isn't really there for my back. Basically I feel the velcro on the straps should be lengthened - because it's not as simple as opening a new notch on my belt !The fit is snug, and I can feel it pulling back my shoulders slightly - it's not uncomfortable, but I do find myself adjusting to a more proper posture so I don't have to feel the dig of the straps. I suppose if you have a proper posture, you'd barely feel this thing there. This gets the job done. The rest of the body (besides the stomach straps as I mention above) are thin enough I can wear this under pretty much anything. I've even worn it on just skin and it was bearable - though I would suggest putting this on top of an undershirt.It's a good product, and it gets the job done : provides support mainly for shoulders and neck - and when you do eventually train yourself to have a proper posture, you'll barely feel this there. I have a computer-driven job and this is perfect. I'm already sitting up more straight just typing this out.

It's ok
Smells strongly when first opened, but dissipates. I'm petite (5'2"): the straps are adjustable so it adjusts to my height but I found the buckles are uncomfortable with where they set under my arm after adjusted to fit me. Waist doesn't quite go small enough for a snug fit but is usable. I do not think I could wear it discretely under clothes and not comfortable enough for an entire day but it does help correct posture a bit. Plan to keep and use when at home.

Construction build is relatively poor; many of the seams are out of alignment
Brace does provide posture support, at a very reasonable price, but product is not super high quality. Given the very low price point, though, I've rated 4-star. Also, customer support replaced an item at no charge. Issue #1: construction build is not the best; many of the seams are out of alignment, which means the seams will come undone. Issue #2: velcro is over-sized, so it overruns the fabric and rubs up against the skin, which can be uncomfortable. Issue #3: small size; as a man with a 42-inch chest, the brace is basically 1-2 inches too short, so somewhat uncomfortable to wear. There were no size options when I purchased -- essentially one size fits all.I purchased 2 of these braces. One item had a seam undone. Customer support refunded the amount after I sent a picture, so overall positive experience on that front.I will wear this for now, but continue to look for the better posture brace.

Velcro at waist needs some help
Bought this for my significant other who is petite. I read reviews and it said its small person friendly. They are right and they are wrong. At the shoulders it is very small person friendly.At the waist it has little adjust-ability. I had some left other industrial velcro that I used to try and bridge the gap that she needed to tighten at the waist. For normal people it is fine. But if your petite size or small, get some velcro ready.

This brought my posture up it definitely works. It is very cheap material though and when I decided to wear it to class i had to take it off because it was hurting my underarms. I was wearing it over a t-shirt and a hoodie over it.

This seems like a great product though I haven't worn it yet
This seems like a great product though I haven't worn it yet. It is well made and has a good design. My one issue is that as a small person (~120lbs) I have to tighten it all the way and the metal slide that adjusts the straps is biting into my underarm. Once I rig some padding I think it will be ok.

Works good but did not fit was too tight under the arms there was no place to choose size and one size fits all doesn't work with this I'm a med/large and it was too tight other than that would have been perfect

At 5'8" and 150 lbs it is a tight fit. Puts a lot of pressure in the underarm region since it is so snug. It does keep my shoulders back and my chest forward as I hoped.
