DonJoy Sully Shoulder Support - Black - Small

Excellent product. The material is soft and durable. It’s comfortable to wear during games and practice. Machine washable but we do line dry for the Velcro. I would recommend for anyone in need of a reliable brace.

Okay, through 20+ years of shoulder problems and 4 shoulder surgeries, I think I have a good understanding of what works and what doesn't.For me, what it's for...DISLOCATING/SUBLUXINGFirst, make sure you get the right fit, if it doesn't fit right I don't think it would work as well.Here are the advantages:1) There are 4 straps in addition to the base, so the directions (also on youtube), give you how to use 2 additional straps for your specific problems (anterior dislocations, posterior dislocations, inferior dislocations, multidirectional dislocations). No OTHER product breaks it down like this.2) With just the base alone, you can already feel your shoulder being placed in correct alignment. Why? Because the interior is a grippy, tacky honeycomb surface that sticks to your skin. So it's like wearing KT tape everywhere on your upper body. Given that its grippy, it will pull your shoulder back in a good way.3) Because it's not really many multiple individual straps over your skin, there is much less of a risk for skin chafing, irritation.4) see reason 1, you can add 2 extra straps to the base and apply them per your problem, and tighten them as much as you wantWill it cure you? I think it depends...if your dislocations are severe, probably not. From what I can tell, if your shoulder subluxes pretty much no matter what, you may need surgery or at least a period of immobilization. Also note, if you have ongoing instability problems, ask for an MRI arthrogram for that shoulder, a normal MRI will not necessarily show some of the culprits involved in structural reasons for instability. Even arthroscopy doesn't reveal these problems unless the ortho is looking for it (I know, my last one skipped over this). For me, all of this is related to the rotator interval, which I'd never heard of prior.More on will it cure you...well, if your subluxations aren't horrendous or years in the making, or even if they are long term and chronic but mild, then this brace is your best shot at a cure (along with good PT advice and an ortho consult for imaging)

After one use, the inside lining of the sully sleeve came off and ripped. This is the second one of these that has done this. This should last longer than a 1.5 hour basketball practice.

it does have good support but worn only 1 month of wrestling and already ripping at the sleeve. not worth the money!!!

It fits really well. I am a woman and normally wear a small, which is what I ordered. It keeps my shoulder in the socket really well and relieves my pain.

We followed the size guidelines although we were surprised my son would wear a small. He 6'1 and weights about 180, but it fits ok. He has had it about a month and wears it almost everyday in varsity basketball practice. It is starting to tear.

I tore my rotator couple several years ago. It set me back from playing volleyball for over a year. I struggled and had to throw in the towel. This unit helped get me back in the game. I was able to lift and use the brace to help support my recovery. After a year of using it, I was back to playing almost at full strength. The unit is comfortable and easy to get one. After a year of using, I am seeing some tears in the pit area. Beside that the brace has been solid. It is also easy to clean. I highly recommend this to help aid in recovery of an injury!

After my teenage daughter's 5th shoulder dislocation, I did some research and learned this is the answer. No dislocations since. Before you do PT or surgey, try this first. It works.
