My son absolutely LOVES this shirt! It fit true to size. We bought a small. He was about 5'6 and 130lbs when we bought it. Shirt never fell apart. This shirt helped with his posture and with reducing discomfort while playing baseball...all because his posture was better. Thank you!!!
Ordering our next one now. Size medium.
Store owner replied:
Excellent review and photos, Angela! This is amazing to hear how the Posture Shirt is helping your son throughout his baseball journey.
It took a couple wears to get comfortable with the shirt. I’ve gotten familiar with it now, and I feel locked in during work outs. It’s a high tech shirt! The length is just right for me. My body is 6’1” 190lbs with a 32waist. I find the Large to be a precise fit up top. If I had to be a perfectionist, I’d say the area around the abdomen is a touch loose. I do enjoy this product very much in its function.
Store owner replied:
Wow! Awesome review and photo, Christian. Feeling locked in when wearing your Posture Shirt! Love it. It helps to pull the Posture Shirt down as far as you can over your hips to help engage the Neurobands on your back.
Both of my teenage boys have a shirt. It helps their shoulders and posture. Getting ready to get my daughter a bra for softball
Store owner replied:
Such a great review and photo, Angela! Thank you! The Posture Shirt is an excellent tool for sports. Many professional athletes use them! We are sure that your daughter will love the Posture Bra.
Imoroved my posture. I work behind a computer and can feel the difference. Reduced my headache due to bad posture. I wear it daily
Store owner replied:
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and photo! It is wonderful to hear that your Alignmed Posture Shirt has made such a positive difference for you. Working long hours behind a computer can be so tough on the neck and shoulders, so finding relief from posture-related headaches is a huge win. We love knowing that it's comfortable and effective enough for you to wear daily.
these shirts are great. they improve my posture and firm up my muscles.
my wife is telling me less to stand up straight
Store owner replied:
Great photo and review, George! We truly appreciate you. We are glad to hear you are improving your Posture Shirt and strengthening your muscles with Alignmed.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your photo and review, Norm! We appreciate you and your support. Great posture!
The postural shirt by your company Alignmed is absolutely by far the best compression and postural shirt I have ever worn to date.
I have two of them Blue and white. I plan on buying an additional one with a zipper as well.
This shirt truly helps your posture and forces you to engage your abdominal muscles all day long, works the core of your body keeping the hunch back of Notre Dame, look away and making you look years younger in your stride and gait .
I am an advocate of these shirts and plan on buying seven of them for each and every day of the week.

Wow! Excellent review and photo, Keenan! We agree! No one wants to walk around with a hunchback, and Alignmed helps to prevent that!
Able to hike all day throughout the countryside North of Barcelona thanks to Alignmed!
Store owner replied:
Amazing photo and review, Phil! So happy to hear that Alignmed is helping you throughout your day and walks/hikes. Keep up the great work!
Fits like a glove and my posture feels better. It's actually quite comfortable for wearing throughout the day. Will be ordering two more today.
Store owner replied:
Great photo and review, Augusto! We appreciate you!
I was skeptical at first, but have to admit this shirt is very helpful in keeping my back aligned. I struggle with hunching my shoulders and this really helped! Will order more!
Store owner replied:
Wow! Amazing review and photo, Jonathan! We can really see your improvements and great posture stance with your Alignmed Posture Shirt!
This shirt is tight fitting and comfortable. It has enhanced my workouts and aided in stabilizing shoulder. I recommend it.
Store owner replied:
Amazing photo and review, Pedro! Shoulder stabilization, posture improvement, and muscle strengthening is what Alignmed is all about. Thank you for sharing.
Store owner replied:
Awesome review and photo, Jamey! We agree the Posture Shirt is an amazing product.
The shirt seems to help cue me to make changes to posture. I could ignore the cue but it isn't comfortable to ignore. I like it overall. But the funk you get after a couple of hours of wear is real. It would be nice to see some silverscent type of technology in these expensive shirts so that I don't immediately stink. That would be huge!
Store owner replied:
Hi Zac, thank you for your photo and review! We appreciate it! If you feel that it might be too much, there are two things we recommend. 1) You can wear it for shorter time frames 2) You can try one size bigger and it will provide less tension so you will be able to tolerate for longer time frames
I’m a long time returning customer. I’m very happy with the new changes in the new shirts. I picked up an original black posture shirt in 2011 before a deployment in the Marines. I was in the best shape of my life after a chiropractor recommended this for my bad posture.
I’m on my third posture shirt now after 14 years. Now that I’m older and not doing CrossFit several times a week. I’m now undergoing physical therapy for old injuries and I use a computer for work. This has been a great product and the new all white shirts are good for wearing a suit for work.
Store owner replied:
Great photo and review! Alignmed thanks you for your service, and we are happy to be helping you out throughout your days. We are happy to hear that your Alignmed products hold up very well. Alignmed is made with the best quality materials!
Works well for my ongoing Backpain , wear twenty fours at a time to rest stabbing back muscles.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your review and photo, Phil! Alignmed helps to reduce back pain and helps to retrain and strengthen your back muscles.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your video and review, Grady! The Posture Shirt can help with muscle spasms and be supportive for slipped discs. Awesome!
I used to wake up in pain every day because of a motorcycle accident and old sports injuries. I have tried chiropractors, and massage therapy to help me because my work as a personal trainer is very demanding; I often had to fight through the pain because nothing ever really worked. With this posture shirt I feel as though my posture is better and it helps take the pressure and pain away from my upper back and neck. This shirt has changed my life and helped relieve my pain.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your review, Ryan. The Posture Shirt, along with other Alignmed products, can help to relieve pain, especially in the neck/back and shoulder areas. Less pressure on the nerves can always help.
I wear it every day. I am 6'6", 170lbs, and the medium fits well. Being so tall, I appreciate that it is so long. After I washed it (handwashed in cold water), it didn't feel as tight. I tried a small but it rubbed under my arms and was uncomfortable. It makes me tighten my core and stand up straighter. I'm going to order more mediums so I don't have to wash it every night.
Store owner replied:
Hi Ferris, thank you for your review and photo! If you feel the Pullover version may be too difficult to get on and off, we recommend trying the Zipper version. This should take care of everything for you.
I was somewhat skeptical of my orthopedist's recommendation of the Alignmed shirt. Nonetheless, I ordered one. I am now a 100% Alignmed fan and most highly recommend the shirt. I wear my shirt daily and am ordering more shirts. I can absolutely feel a change after wearing the shirt. Every benefit that Alignmed touts is real. I am 6'2", 225 lbs, 48" chest and wear an XL posture shirt.
Store owner replied:
Hi John, thank you for your review and excellent photo! We are so happy you gave Alignmed a try and trusted your orthopedic doctor. We know you will love the great benefits the Alignmed products bring.
I love my compression shirt. It provides the needed support for my back issues. It is comfortable and made with durable material. I am going to buy one for my dad.
Store owner replied:
Great review and photos, John! This is an excellent product to purchase for your father. He too can enjoy less back pain and improved posture.
I have a 41 inch chest and weigh 170 lbs. My shirts are size large. These shirts comfortably help prevent my shoulders from hunching forward. The results are long lasting. I wear the shirts all day long, a couple of times a week, just like I would wear any undershirt.
Store owner replied:
Great review and photo, Thomas! The Posture Shirt is an excellent undershirt to use daily. Better posture and no one will notice you are wearing the Posture Shirt.
Excellent to wear under golf shirt for improved posture - helps with consistency.
Store owner replied:
Awesome photo and review, Chris! There are many professional baseball players that use the Alignmed products! Keep up the great work!
This shirt really helped my back and posture during my workouts!
Store owner replied:
Awesome photo and review, Marwan. Thank you!
I recently bought a second AlignMed Posture Shirt. This is the pullover model. My first one is still going strong after 15 years. It's held up remarkably well and the new model feels like very similar quality to the older one. It's almost the same design with the nice addition of ventilated mesh panels in the back. So it's durable, fits great, and my wife, who sees all knows all, says that my posture is better when I wear it. I tend to agree. Gives very nice support for back and shoulders. Great product! 5 stars.
Store owner replied:
Wow! 15 years and the Posture Shirt is still holding up. Great to hear you are trying the latest product. We are always looking for ways to improve and bring better posture to the world.
I have chronic shoulder pain due to osteoarthritis following surgery. This shirt has helped me greatly to alleviate the pain and I am thinking of buying more.
Store owner replied:
Great photo and review! The Posture Shirt is an excellent post-surgery recovery product and great for everyday wear.
Very comfortable, breathable material. I plan on purchasing more. Before you make a purchase I recommend consulting the weight sizing chart. The chart said I should get a Large and I went with an X-Large and found that I liked the sizing better. I would highly recommend this product.
Store owner replied:
Thank you for your review and photo!
Division 1 college baseball player and I wear this shirt whenever I am playing. It helps to reinforce proper throwing mechanics and takes pressure off my shoulder. Love it!
Store owner replied:
Great review and photo, Joseph! We are glad to be helping. There are many MLB players that use the products both on and off the field.
Truly grateful for your company. This photo was taken at the Spartan Race on 9/11 last year in Nationals Park, where I did the race in full turnout gear. I was wearing my Alignmed underneath.
Store owner replied:
Wow! Thank you for your service, Jason! We appreciate this great photo and we are glad to hear you are benefiting from the AlignMed products.
Bought this for my fiance who is in law enforcement. He's in full attire everyday and usually stands for majority of the day. He comes home with sore back, stiff lower back, and tight calves everyday. Ever since he started wear the alignmed shirt he hasn't had any soreness anywhere even after working 24 hours overtime. Will be buying more!
Store owner replied:
Wow! Great review and photo, Kathy! We thank him for his hard work and we are glad to be helping him throughout his day!
I have scoliosis and kyphosis and struggle with keeping correct posture. This shirt is very comfy and breathable and helps improve my posture. I wear it 6-8 hours a day and have noticed a slight improvement in my pain levels. I will definitely be purchasing another! Thank you Alignmed!
Store owner replied:
Great photo and review, Art! We appreciate it. Breathable is always a plus!
I bought the shirt to help while I’m in dental school. My back has pain from my time in the military, and dentistry is notorious for poor posture and back pain. I love the compression of the shirt and the slight tension on the shoulders to get the proper posture. Be careful when removing the shirt to avoid tearing the thinner material on the back. I haven’t damaged mine, but there is a substantial amount of compression that you are pulling against, so just be careful where you pull on the shirt when taking it off.
Store owner replied:
Wow! Great photo and review, Matthew! Thank you!
FAQS
The Alignmed Posture Shirt is a form-fitted garment designed to help improve posture, relieve pain, and increase athletic performance. It uses patented Neuroband technology, which is a system of muscle resistance panels built into the product, to apply gentle tension to key muscle groups. This tension provides biofeedback, reminding your body to maintain a more upright and aligned position.
The length of time you should wear the Alignmed Posture Shirt can vary depending on your personal comfort and goals. There is no one-size-fits-all answer, but here are some general guidelines:
Start Slowly: If you're new to wearing Alignmed®, it's best to begin with short periods. Start by wearing the shirt for 2-6 hours at a time and gradually increase the duration as your body becomes accustomed to the new muscle resistance and activation.
Listen to Your Body: The shirt is designed to provide biofeedback, which can initially cause some mild muscle fatigue as it encourages underactive muscles to work. If you feel any discomfort or significant fatigue, take a break from wearing it.
Consistency is Key: Many users find that wearing the Posture Shirt for several hours a day, especially during activities where you tend to slouch (like sitting at a desk or driving), is very effective. The goal is to build muscle memory and awareness, so wearing it consistently is more important than wearing it for extremely long periods.
For Specific Activities: The Posture Shirt can be particularly beneficial during workouts, sports, or other physical activities to help maintain proper form and reduce strain. It can also be worn during recovery to help with circulation and muscle/joint support.
Wearing While Sleeping: We recommend trying it out if you can tolerate it. Many customers love sleeping in their Posture Shirt and experience better and longer sleep.
Ultimately, the right amount of time is what feels comfortable and effective for you. Some people wear it for a few hours daily, while others wear it for a full workday. The key is to use it as a tool to train your body and get stronger.
It's common to feel some mild soreness or fatigue after wearing the Alignmed Posture Shirt, especially when you first start using it. This is generally a good sign. The shirt's Neurobands® are designed to provide biofeedback, encouraging muscles that have been inactive or underutilized—like the rhomboids in your upper back—to engage and work more. This process of re-engaging and strengthening these muscles can lead to a feeling similar to what you experience after a workout. However, the soreness should be mild and feel like muscle fatigue rather than sharp pain. If you experience significant or unusual pain, you should stop wearing the shirt and consult a medical professional.
This is normally a sign that you are in a size too big. We recommend pulling down the Posture Shirt as much as possible around your hips. This will help to engage the Neurobands on your back and create more resistance. The Posture Shirt is designed to fit form-fitted, but comfortably. If you have any sizing questions, please feel free to contact us at customercare@alignmed.com
The Posture Shirt works on the principle of proprioception, which is your body's ability to sense its position and movement. The Neurobands on the Posture Shirt are strategically placed to mimic the kinesiology of specific muscles. As you move, the bands provide gentle resistance and sensory input to these muscles, encouraging them to engage and pull your shoulders back and down, while also activating your core. This helps to correct slouching and rounded shoulders over time.
Common benefits reported by users include:
Improved Posture: The primary benefit is a more upright and aligned posture.
Reduced Back and Neck Pain: By correcting poor posture, the shirt can help alleviate strain on the back and neck muscles.
Increased Muscle Activation: The shirt encourages underactive muscles to engage, promoting better muscle balance.
Enhanced Athletic Performance: Some athletes find that the improved alignment can lead to better form and efficiency in their movements.
Faster Recovery: The compression element can help improve circulation and reduce muscle soreness after exercise.
The Alignmed Posture Shirt is suitable for a wide range of individuals, including:
People who spend long hours sitting at a desk.
Athletes looking to improve form and performance.
Individuals recovering from injuries or physical therapy.
Anyone who wants to be more mindful of their posture and wellness.
Alignmed provides a sizing chart based on measurements. The effectiveness of the Neurobands depends on a snug, but not overly tight, fit. It is generally recommended to measure yourself and choose the size that corresponds to your measurements. If you are between sizes, it is often recommended to size up for comfort, though a tighter fit can provide more muscle resistance. In the end, we want it to be comfortable and unrestrictive. If you need help with sizing, please email us at customercare@alignmed.com
For best results, it should be worn as a base layer, close to the skin. It can be worn for daily activities, during exercise, or even while sleeping. The duration of wear can vary, but many users start by wearing it for a few hours at a time and gradually increase the duration as they become more comfortable.
Yes, the Posture Shirt is machine washable. It's generally recommended to hand-wash or wash on a cold, delicate cycle and hang it to dry to maintain the integrity of the Neurobands and the fabric. Avoid using bleach, fabric softeners, or ironing the shirt.
The Posture Shirt is designed to be form-fitting and can be worn discreetly under most clothing. It is thin enough to layer without adding significant bulk.
