These have been by the best bras I’ve ever worn. Nothing compares to them!! They’re a little pricey, but well worth it!!!
KATHLEEN J.
Wonderfully supportive without being tight or restrictive. I have degenerative spine issues and this has helped reduce my pain level. I am ordering more as it has been so beneficial and useful to wear also when doing tasks or chores.
Amy L.
Love this bra! It really keeps my alignment straight when running
Andrea D.
This bra is incredible! I work in healthcare and am on my feet all day. This has helped tremendously with my chronic shoulder and back pain.
Brooke Q.
I found the right product for me. These black zipper posture bras are making a positive impact on my life, and I am extremely grateful for the product.
Ellen D.
I can't say enough good things about the posture sports bra. In addition to jogging, I teach 5 hours of dog training classes a week. On my feet and moving! This bra has eliminated the mid-back spasms I was beginning to have after nearly 3 hours each session on my feet. I'm 70 years old, and this bra has been a game-changer for teaching, grooming, and showing dogs! Thanks again.
Caitlin T.
Best sports bra I’ve ever had. Appreciate the higher armpits that help avoid lymphatic fluid pooling where other bras dig in. Not sure it’s changing my posture but it’s comfortable all day. Only downside is the zipper shows through clothing as a bump.
Ellen D.
I've been a runner/jogger for over 50 years. This was the best support for posture, breathing, alignment, lessened fatigue through upper back and neck. This Alignmed is far better than any other sports bras; and I have purchased dozens over the years. It's not so much about support; it's about alignment that enhances my running form and technique, with less fatigue. I now own 3, waiting for another color to come out . Thank you for a superior product!
Stormy W.
I fractured my t1-5 at the same time as a tbi and broken ankle. My posture has definitely suffered and I was looking for some serious help outside of PT.
This sports bra is so comfy and for sure helps to gently pull my shoulders back and down.
I bought a large based on the size chart but due to how stretchy the material is i *MAY* try a medium on my next order.
Customer service was amazing when i had to return the posture shirt.
All around i'm super impressed and this bra is worth the money.
Lynn F.
The sports bra is disappointing because the specs were incorrect. I clearly fell in the medium size, but the medium is too large. The sports bra rides up when active. It’s not tight enough to hold my shoulders back. Also, the top of the zipper protrudes thru the UV shirts and will probably end up wearing a hole thru them.
Ann M.
After I had rotator cuff surgery, my doctor recommended that I get this bra. It has become my favorite sports bra. It keeps my shoulder stable and some of my tennis buddies have commented how good my posture is!! I have been using this product for at least 5 years and I rarely use any other sports bra when I play tennis or pickleball!! I recommend it 100%.
Brooke Q.
This bra is a gamechanger! I have hEDS, which causes severe upper back pain every moment of my life. I normally can't stand upright for more than 5 minutes without the pain being so bad that I have to lie down. I tried the Alignmed Pullover Posture Bra first, but I had a hard time getting in and out of it due to my hypermobile shoulders. Alignmed recommended I try the zipper bra, and I am SOLD! I can get into and out of it easily, and most importantly, it is making a serious difference in my upper back pain. Wearing the bra this week, I was able to stand and participate in dinner preparations for 20-30 minutes and only felt a small fraction of my normal pain. I've been suffering with this upper back pain since I was in kindergarten (I'm 47 now), so getting relief from this bra is a VERY BIG DEAL. I plan to purchase it in white and nude so I can wear the bra no matter what shirt I have on. THANK YOU Alignmed for the work you are doing to help people like me regain some semblance of a normal life. I am very grateful.
Jessica
So far I have tried the bra and I really wish I could have ordered a D or DD cup size. The back support is great but not enough to comfortably fit all my front in it.
Janice W.
I have scoliosis and this sports bra helps keep me supported and helps with my posture . I love it !!!
Teodora F.
This is an amazing sports bra. Super comfortable, VERY supportive (literally the only sports bra I’ve found that pushes your ladies in and up, instead of just in and kind of down), and does not cut into your back to create unnecessary bulges. I use it for high impact activities like volleyball. Love it.
Janice
Awesome product . I have scoliosis and I find this product helps adjust my body .
Irma L.
loved it but the zipper broke second time i used it.
Joy F.
This helps so much with my posture that my shoulders do not hurt at the end of the day when I wear it!
Enza
Good support and very comfortable
Joan Lisante H.
After trying sizes large and extra-large of your Zipper Posture Sports Bra, I gave up. Because the straps are not adjustable, the bra does not close low enough to fit properly for anyone with a longer torso. It's certainly disappointing, considering the cost, and I would love to hear about an alternative produce which would be a better fit.
Sharon T.
Nice quality bra. Good posture support. The problem is that they need to be sold by cup size, not just S, M, L. The zippered section fits fine but when the bra is hooked underneath, it’s too tight across my breasts and not comfortable. And yes, I ordered the proper size according to the chart in the website.
Cleverdon J.
Helps my posture and lessens my lower back pain
Shea W.
I really like these and have several! I wish they lasted a little better but they are my favorite bra!!
Heather B.
Great for correcting posture and as a result reducing neck and upper back pain. That says not great fit when in between sizes.
Ruonan L.
Very comfortable, definitely helping with my posture
Jess K.
Really supports my loose hEDS shoulders and keeps things from getting out of alignment. Improves my posture and is comfy enough to wear to bed. Only critique is the zipper is visible under thinner tees so I’ll be ordering the pullover next!
Tracy L.
Very comfortable and perfect fit
Dorothy L.
Perfect! Fits comfortably and it really helps improve my posture!
Christy V.
I’m 5‘7“ 220 pounds. Not sure of my bra size. The 2XL was too big… I’m going to exchange it for a smaller size. It’s comfortable, not sure how it will look under a shirt because of the zipper
Laurel O.
Sizing comment: I weigh 150#, 34C bra and 38" bust. My bra band and high bust measurements are both 34.5". I am 10# overweight. My bust will decrease by 1" when I lose the weight.
The bra rides up on me, even though I am within the measurements on the chart. I weigh less than 160-180# per the chart for a size medium and my bust is only one-half inch larger. A 38" bust is the lowest range for a size large which posts a weight range of 175-195# which is way more than me.
My comment is for women who have a borderline bust measurement between sizes. I decided to keep the bra because I am losing weight and I figure it will work out. As it currently rides up, it is not comfortable to wear all day. I wear it for 2-3 hours at a time.
It is well made and I feel like the rear crossbones are effective.
Laura O.
I ordered a L but felt I needed an XL. While the customer service was great. I stuffed myself into the XL only to look down and realized several hours later my breast was half out of the bottom…nice
So as your body heat warms up the bra bottom it becomes too loose, but honestly feel this bra is not for large chested women. I am a 38DDD.
Patricia P.
I’ve been wearing a product that is just straps, it works but digs uncomfortably into my underarms. I wanted something more comfortable but as effective. I bought three different bras from different manufacturers. The Alignme wins hands down! I actually fell asleep in it last night (not purposefully) and woke up without discomfort. It is surprisingly comfortable. My job (jeweler) has me bent over my bench 10-14 hours a day, I recently developed severe stabbing pain in the back of my head (occipital neuralgia) from a pinched nerve in my upper back. This is helping to remind me to sit up straight without digging under my armpits. I will wear it daily, and plan to buy several more. Thank you so much!
Beverly
I like it but it's not going to help my back because I have scoliosis
Joan
Order a size larger then you normally wear.
Lori H.
Really helps my posture and back pain.
Nancy B.
I'm a 34 dd, large chested. small body. Bought this bra a month ago, at first I was a little hesitant , it wasnt easy to get on the first time, and felt odd, after a few hours i didn't wanta take it off. Its really changed my life , back pain is so much better. My husband says my posture is much better. I'm buying 2 more today. I tell every women I meet to try it, I'm pretty much a walking infomercial for you.!!!!
Rakiesha
Don’t feel true support
Kaitlin
Has helped with my shoulder pain, takes time to adjust to but worth the discomfort
MEREDITH
I don’t feel like it helps w my posture. Comfortable bra but not for the price.
Maria C.
This zip bra really does put my back into better alignment, and especially reduces the curvature at the top of my spine. Also it doesn't leave red dig-in marks like other zip bras I've tried. Thanks AlignMed!
Maria C.
I've used a lot of zip-front bras and so far this is the best one. I was born with multiple disabilities and I wear zip-front bras not only because they're easier to put on and take off but also to give me more upper-body support, since my trunk is weak and my back curves forward at the top. Although my trunk still gets tired with this bra on, I've noticed that the curvature at the top of my back is definitely less. This makes it more comfortable for me too. Thanks AlignMed!
Jenette L.
I received the bra incredibly fast and I am really happy with it!
Joannie H.
Love the wide shoulder straps. If in between sizes, size down.
Fran G.
Fairly comfortable. Offers more support than other postures bras. The bad part is - the width of the shoulder straps make them stick out of most of my clothes. I would prefer not wearing turtlenecks everyday, especially since I live in Florida.
Patricia G.
I went by chats and deceived I needed an X-Large. My bra size is a 42 DD. But I lost weight since I was last measured. So according to the chart an x-large should fit. The ban was fine but the cup size to me was a little small. So I will continue with the X-Large.
Teresa M.
I order this for upper back pain . I am 59 years old and starting to have the curvature in upper cervical area . It does help a lot . I would live to have another color . I bought the nam I’ve . It’s day was tough wearing it because muscle was being shifted . Yes I would recommended
Laura
Being a pilot means I sit down for hours while I’m working. I tend to slouch on the old uncomfortable seats which causes me to have back pain. I have been wearing AlignMe zipper posture sports bra while I fly and have noticed less back pain and better posture. It’s so comfortable and I definitely recommend if you’re a pilot or sit down to work for long periods at a time!
Kristan
I suffer from chronic neck, thoracic spine/upper back, SI joint/hip, and lumbar spine/lower back pain. I almost cried when I wore the bra & leggings to a cycle class and had almost no neck, hip & lower back pain!
Leslie K.
I really am happy with this sports bra. I've tried several different posture correctors but most were pretty uncomfortable so it made me reluctant to put them on. This one, however, is actually comfortable and so I wear it every day. To me it feels like a nice firm hug. It's definitely helping with my back pain.
Michael K.
This top is really outstanding. I wear it every day now without it being uncomfortable. It helps me keep my shoulders back and my head up. Incidentally, it is also very suitable for men if you remove the pillows
Nancy Y.
I have tried to wear the sports bra size Medium. Compared to the medium posture shirt, it feels quite constricting across the front of my chest/rib cage. I'm 5'3 130 lbs with a normal bra size of 36 A or B so a medium should work. I think I will have to return the Medium for a Large which may be more comfortable.
Lee M.
Best solution to my shoulder slouch while riding
Karen P.
I have hEDS and my PT recommended the Posture bra to help keep my shoulders aligned and in place, which is certainly does! I am a 32 DDD/E cup and tried the medium size as per the sizing guidance. The band is a little loose at the back and customer service have been great about offering to switch it to a small but as the compression is already a little tight over my chest suspect I will stick with the medium!
Yoana F.
To my esthetician besties or anyone in an industry that requires a lot from your body. I know there are some of us going home aching from all the looking down or bending for long periods of time. That is why taking the time to do things like this bra is a total game-changer! I didn’t even know these existed until recently! Do what works for you and remember we want to last in this industry we have to keep taking care of our amazing bodies!
Eileen S.
As other reviewers mention, this is a bit difficult to get on, but once the first hook is engaged it gets much easier. The bra is quite comfortable once everything is in place, but it definitely gives a “uniboob” look. Given the front closure system, I don’t see how it could be otherwise. So bottom line: I’ll enjoy wearing this for exercising, but can’t imagine it in other situations. For the price, I had hoped it would be more versatile.
Cynthia
Not at all comfortable
Donna C.
Second bra I bought because I wore out the other from so much wonderful use. I highly recommend.
BeLinda W.
I like the construction of the garment, but it is too large so had to return it for a small. I already own a black one in full length and really like it. I just thought the short version ran smaller in size.
Constance B.
Has saved my back/shoulder! I have something called first rib dysfunction and my PT recommended the Alignmed sport bra. It takes a bit to get used to the feeling, but it keeps my shoulders back and down and keeps me from being in constant pain! I am going to purchase the shirt, too. Thank you!
Myra M.
Purchased for my daughter that has had shoulder surgery. She loves it
Patrick B.
Great posture support for all activities!
Janet B.
I have been having shoulder pain, and this product helps my posture and eases the pain in my shoulder. Excellent product!
Rachel F.
At first, I didn’t think this helped but then I tried some competitors bras, and this one is by far the best
Melody R.
I love this posture sports bra! It truly does help me sit up straight and relieves my back pain from a lifelong bad habit of slumping! I don't like sleeping in it, tough I wish I did. I find myself wanting to put it on as soon as I get up in the morning!
Ginnette
Exactly as described. Great for my posture
Julia B.
I never want to wear anything else! It's helped to stabilize my body, making me realize how much of a toll EDS takes on my energy when I'm not wearing it. On my way to buy 5 more!
Isabel E.
It is great to see a posture corrector that is much less bulky than what I have previously seen. However, price is a bit too high, it should be more affordable!
Shanda B.
I do like the way it feels; how ever, I did go down a size when purchasing and I don’t feel and tightness or pulling where I need it. For the price, I’m kind of disappointed.
Monica T.
I've been searching for a posture correcting bra for a LONG time. I've got chronic back issues and was looking for relief. Finding a front closure bra that had good reviews was really a task. I ordered align med bra with doubts but was pleasantly surprised!! I'm wearing it about 4 hrs a day to start. This is working with results! I hope to order another one in the near future so I can rotate. Thank U
Faye M.
My thermagrams have consistently showed an area of pooled lymph on the right side of my right breast. I like to sleep on my right side but it's annoying. I got the bra to sleep in. At first, I didn't think it would work but it's quite comfortable and I can sleep on my right side again.
marina f.
I do have EDS and is hard to feel good with normal Bra. I love this one.
Theresa M.
It really does work to train the muscles in my upper back.
Marie F.
It's very important while riding horses to keep your upper body in alignment with your hip and heel. The alignmed sports bra helps accomplish that position. I have one for each day I ride and love it!
Valerie A.
My doctor recommended align med because I have hEDS. I purchased the sports bra to see if it would help my posture but I've had a lot of troubles figuring out the sizing and still don't have it figured out. I started with a small and it didn't feel supportive enough, although I'm not sure how it should feel. I decided to return it after customer service said I needed an XS, which is what I'm wearing in the photo. However the XS feels too tight and caused one of my ribs to sublux the first day I tried it, which was extremely painful but I'm trying my best to make it work. The bra is definitely well made and likely very helpful with posture issues if you manage to get the right size. I'm guessing I'm between sizes. I wear a 34A bra, 28.25” under breasts, 25-27” waist, 5’7” 102lbs.
Jessica B.
I was so skeptical of the other reviews, but figured that I've tried just about every other remedy for shoulder bursitis that I might as well as this to my toolbox. But this bra... is amazing!!! As soon as I tried it on, I felt immediate relief in my shoulder. I plan to order a few more **right now** because I plan on wearing these non-stop until I can rehab my shoulder and rebuild my core strength to keep my shoulder issues from coming back. Thank you for making such a wonderful product.
Monica
I love the way this bra feels when I wear it but it absolutely hate how it looks under a shirt. The zipper is very visible and therefore I can’t really ever were this outside of my home. Luckily I work from home so it’s not a huge deal but it’s still very annoying and something that I hope they can fix in the next revision.
Laura S.
I wear the bra at work under my scrubs to keep my posture in line!!
Jeanne C.
The Alignmed Sports Bra gives instant back strain relief, and instantly improves posture, which is why I ordered it at the recommendation of my Physical Therapist. I have frozen shoulders complicated in part by years of poor posture. The home exercises I've been doing improved noticeably following starting to wear the Alignmed Sports Bra.
Pros:
- Instant back strain relief
- Improves posture and neck alignment
- Elastic bands cross the scapula giving added support
- Improves exercise response/strengthening
Cons:
- I had issue with one elastic band scratching my scapula, I sewed in a shoulder pad with relief.
Yes, I plan to buy more so I can wear one everyday.
Elyse G.
Wasn’t quite sure this bra would live up to its hype. Boy was I wrong. It is everything it was suppose to do and more. Love it…so does my neck and back
april c.
Best supported sports bra ever! I had a revision breast surgery and purchased this for the recovery process. Every single surgical bra id try would be uncomfortable, this bra however was perfect! The inseams are soft and don’t dig into your skin like other brands.
I now use it as my sports bra as it gives me plenty of support. Will definitely purchase more.
I am 34-36 DD 156 lb 5’8 purchased size M
Audrey S.
I love mine. I am an icu nurse and it makes such a difference on long shifts. I have pain when I don’t wear it. My only thing is I wish you couldn’t see the zipper in the front through my shirts. Find a way to hide that zipper and I’ll never buy any other bra again.
Gertie P.
Helps after rotator cuff repair
Glenda F.
It is fantastic. Great support
Margo J.
I have the shirt and bra, and I got a bra for my daughter. I loved the shirt, but when they came out with the bra it was a game changer. It straights me up and relieves my middle back pain as well as the lower back we walk 2 miles in the morning and I come home without pain, I get the biggest size as I am big breasted and it works. The product is so well made, zipper and hooks great quality, great products.
Karen F.
It has changed my posture in a way I never imagined. Even when I am not wearing it, I am aware of my posture. The statements by the company are accurate and the results are felt from the moment you begin to wear their product. Love it, and will purchase more.
Diane & H.
I have neck, back & shoulder issues & I wear the Align med bra all of the time when I am working & moving around the house & many times even when I go out. This bra really helps to support my neck & back & helps relieve some of the pain. I absolutely love it!
Dawn D.
I love this bra! I am a hairstylist and have occupational back damage, including cervical stenosis. My orthopedist prescribed an AlignMed brace but my insurance didn’t cover it, so this was the option I could afford. It really helps me stay more mindful of my posture and alleviates my upper back pain. Most posture garments cut into the armpits but this one doesn’t and is very comfortable. Highly recommend. I am 5’ 4”, 115 lbs, 32A and I wear a small in this bra.
Debra W.
I have liked the bras, I own three now. I am not sure if I get the proper "pull" for my shoulders.
Linda D.
This is the first posture product I have used that does not dig under your arms and has gentle pressure. Comfortable to wear all day. Love it!
Marylin B.
Great fit. I love it so much I’m buying more.
Kelly C.
I wish they came in more sizes!
Natalie T.
Immediately pulled my posture together. Shoulders back and tension released. Even helped to tighten my core by taking the pressure off of my shoulders and neck. It’s like wearing KT tape without the pain of repeated placement and removal but all the benefits!
Linda K.
I had surgery and I was recommended this product. It really helps! It has been really helpful to wear this product. Other sports bras do not work as well as this.
Coleen B.
Very comfortable, but expected more tension in back, straps lay loosely on my back, but i can’t zip up a smaller size.
Mary M.
I wore the bra all afternoon/evening yesterday after receiving it and I can hardly believe how much better it makes me feel. I put it on this morning for my 3 mile walk and same result! An amazing difference in my entire upper body!
Gelinda B.
The bra has helped relieve my thoracic and rib pain by 75-80%. Actually, I wear it 24hrs because it helps control my scapular winging and muscle dysfunction. Love, love the bra.
