Following a hip dislocation this product was obtained to give support for the hip supplanting the hospital supplied metallic support which is meant to allow healing for six weeks post operatively which is worn externally to the trousers. This was uncomfortable to wear so the new product, worn under the trousers, is more comfortable and allows me to have access to pockets and go to the loo without having to dismantle the apparatus. A great boon in my recovery while the muscles regenerate and the velcro makes ease of use comparatively simple.

Overall, I did not find this brace to be affective if you are looking for something for sciatica, piriformous muscle tears or syndrome, or hip surgery. It actually hurts worse to wear it laying down. If you have pain going from sitting to standing, this does not relieve that pain at all, or vice versa going from standing to sitting. If you sit with it on, it cuts at the waist and provides no support for the sciatic nerve. Because there is no support on the piece going down from the hip to the upper leg, there is no relief from any sort of turning, bending, or twisting. I really can't figure out how it offers any support. I am returning it.What I liked:1. This item was available in an appropriate size. The size chart seems to be very accurate (for the L size.)2. The waist belt and upper leg strap cinch up tight enough to feel the compression.3. The material is lightweight and the velcro fasteners are quite strong.What I did not like:1. No matter how much I tried to tighten it, the lower leg band would never get tight. I even tried angling it upward, but that left gaps and bulges in the brace.2. The leg portion does not seem to do anything. It actually seemed to hinder walking.3. The waist band is not wide enough to hit the affected area. It rides above the area. If I move it down to cover the affected area, then the leg portion is too low. Therefore, it does not work for piriformous muscle tears of piriformous syndrome. If you look at the model wearing it, you will see she has it almost at the waist. If you need support for the hip, this does not go that low without dropping the leg part or causing gaps in the material.4. This can be put on fairly easily by one person, but you have to make sure to have all the velcro undone and begin with the waist band held open. Once the waist is on, you either have to bend to reach the leg straps of lift your leg up onto a bench so you don't have to bend. If you have sciatica, piriformous issues, or recent hip surgery then both the bending at the waist and lifting of the leg is very painful and you will definitely feel uncomfortable putting it on.

I bought 2, one right and one left. The product itself is of good quality, but I couldn't get it tightened enough to help. I'm also short and this was made for someone considerably taller than me. So I returned them within one day because they didn't fit properly. I received a refund for one the next day but haven't seen the refund for the second one. The refund status states that I already received it but I haven't. BE AWARE IF YOU PURCHASE MORE THAN ONE AND NEED TO RETURN THEM THAT YOU MAY NOT RECEIVE A FULL REFUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Surprisingly, just a little extra support can relieve hip pain, particularly if it is only one hip. Using this for sciatica (sp?) also worked for me. Awkward to strap on, but it fits over or under pants - quite slim. I recommend it.

Easy to use. Velcro works great. Comfort. Strap lengths work great. Great fit. Perfect thickness. Great price!

This thing provides little to no support. It’s supposed to be for larger people and it does fit but it’s so thin that it does nothing for me. It also rolls down which is very irritating. Do yourself a favor and pass on this “brace”. If I could give it zero stars I would.

My daughter is a Grad student. She teaches in one building and does her research in a building about 20 minutes away. She almost always walks to and from campus, so she tends to push it and walk faster than necessary. Mainly because she didn't get up on time. So far, she says this brace helps to support her hip and seems to keep her from overstriding so much. Time will tell about any durability issues.

This brace barely worked out due to it being sized a bit larger. There wasn’t a right sized one available at the time. It worked alright because I made it work. The design is real good. It isn’t a design issue. It was just a figment issue. It would be perfect for larger people, but because I am not it had to be made do. I really like the design of this and if it had been closer to my size, would have been perfect. It is comfortable enough. It supports well. The design and build quality are better than others I’ve tried. It’s easy to put on. The Velcro on this is better laid out than others I have tried. Measure yourself and find this in your size as I think this is the best made brace for this purpose.

This was offered in larger sizes than most other brands, and for a reasonable price. I bought it after a bad hip flexor attain. It provided some support but I felt more compression at the thigh than around my hips, which is what I needed.
