This very popular back brace from Mueller Sports Medicine is consistently the best selling lumbar support on the internet. It currently enjoys a 4 1/2 star rating and over 2500 reviews on Amazon. This product retails at around the $16usd mark and as such, represents very good value for money. Some of the key features are:
- eight supportive steel springs conform to your back and provide firm lumbar support.
- tapered cut provides a comfortable fit for men and women.
- the main elastic band is 9″ (20cm) high and creates broad support. The second, outer elastic straps, are 4″ (10cm) high and allow for adjustable tension.
The sizing is meant to fit everyone, although there will always be acceptions at either end of the range. The manufacturer states that it (stretched length) – fits waist sizes 28 – 50″ (71 – 127 cm). A careful look at the online reviews shows that this is probably accurate.

What do you recommend for a waist size smaller than the 28″ minimum here? A petite 18 yo with a 24″ waist.
Hi there
It does seem that you are at the smaller end of the size scale. This product does rely on some “stretch” to achieve the supportive feeling so may not be a good choice for you. If you do decide to purchase one please let us know whether it fits! If you are willing to share what your reason for considering this product is, we may be able to suggest an alternative.
Regards Dave
