Features of the ActivePosture® Shirt
ActivePosture® shirt is CE-registered as medical device
The ActivePosture® Posture Shirt™ 2.0 is registered as a medical device. The CE certification is a documentation that the product meets the requirements for quality and safety that have been set for medical equipment. The ActivePosture® shirt is the only one of its kind with such certification. It is always good to keep a healthy suspicion when looking for a posture shirt with many poorly made counterfeit products on the market. These counterfeit products are almost always shipped from countries abroad (if shipped at all).
Moisture wicking and breathable material
The ActivePosture® shirt is produced in a material with a unique composition of spandex, nylon and polyester. This means that the material is extremely mobile and ensures breathability. The material is also antimicrobially treated, which makes it transport the sweat away from the body and limits body odeur. This makes the t-shirt ideal to use when you are physically active.
Developed with unique and patented support straps
ActivePosture® has the European patent on the technology used to produce the unique support bands integrated in the Posture Shirt™. The support bands are called NeuroBands™, and the technology behind these bands are based on research on human physiology. They are designed to reflect the contractile and resilient abilities of the muscles around the back and shoulders. Thus, they provide support to the muscles and allow full movement without overtaking the muscles' functionality.

Customer reviews of ActivePosture® Shirt
customer 1
I bought a few of these for my partner who has difficulty keeping his back straight (something to do with a muscle disorder?!) Instantly there was a difference when he put on the shirt. He has tried so many things and had difficulty keeping up his use...not with these! He now as 3 and I have one for myself. He tends to wear his under his clothing and notices a difference if he doesn't wear one for a day or two. Highly recommend
customer 2
Worth every penny. Was so sceptic about purchasing one but thought if it helps my spinal problem and posture then it has to be worth a go. First wear was strange as I made the mistake of wearing it for 4 hours, when it should have been no longer than an hour. Gave myself a rest for a few days, then worked up to gradually wearing it occasionally when physical. Best money I’ve ever spent on my health. Highly recommend these t-shirts. I used to have my shoulders taped up by an osteopath, and the cost of 2 sessions certainly pays for one of these tops, and does exactly the same thing. Brilliant design. ❤️
Pain relief with the ActivePosture® shirt
The ActivePosture® shirt is the only posture correcting t-shirt on the market with a documented effect on relieving pain and tension. This documentation comes from scientific studies. Furthermore, the results from a customer survey also show that the posture clothing works. In the survey, more than 1000 ActivePosture® customers participated. These customers were primarily using the ActivePosture® shirt.
It was concluded that posture clothing has a positive effect on improving posture and relieving pain and muscle tension. At the same time, it was concluded that there is a positive correlation between improved posture and reduced pain. This means that an improved posture can help relieve pain in the back, shoulders and neck. This is because the muscles are supported and relieved when the body is in its optimal position.

Review from the physiotherapist
In my treatment, I recommend Posture Shirt 2.0 for several different issues. The typical ones are pain in the neck, shoulders and back. I think the shirt does really well by correcting the posture. But also by increasing posture awareness on the postural muscles as well as the muscles around the shoulder blade, which affect the functionality of the shoulder. Several of the shoulder blade muscles are also connected to the neck and can contribute to headaches.
When can you wear the ActivePosture® Shirt?
If you work by a computer
Working in a standing or physically hard job
Do you have a physically demanding job, for example as a craftsman, where asymetrical working positions are part of your working day? Or maybe you have a predominantly standing job, for example as a hairdresser, where you find yourself in the same static positions over and over again? Regardless of profession, the ActivePosture® shirt will help you find and maintain the most optimal posture throughout the working day, thus preventing unnecessary tension, wear and tear and muscle pain as a result of a poor working position.
Wear ActivePosture® shirt when doing sports
The ActivePosture® shirt is useful for sports and training, as it is made of a breathable, sweat-transporting and movable material. It ensures that the muscles of the back and shoulders are activated. Further, it ensures that the body is in its optimal position when a given activity is performed. The posture shirt can be used for cycling, horseback riding, strength training, running and hiking. It can also be used as a base layer when playing e.g. football, rugby or basketball. In the UK it is popular amongst people playing tennis and golf. These are asymmetrical sports where posture is key to perform at the best of one’s ability. For training purposes, the ActivePosture® shirt can help prevent injuries. This is because it provides an improved starting point for remembering to tighten up the muscles. And this can ultimately help prevent injuries.
Performing household chores
As in the other everyday situations, an ActivePosture® shirt can help your body adopt the most optimal posture when performing household chores. It is not restricting movement and can therefore be used whether you clean, cook, mown the lawn, or arrange the laundry. By performing the tasks with the body in an optimal posture, pain and tension are prevented and relieved.
Wear the ActivePosture® shirt when relaxing
It is ideal to wear the ActivePosture® shirt when watching TV, reading a book or just relaxing. By using your posture-correcting t-shirt for both activity and relaxation, the body gets used to the optimised posture more easily. In the long run, it will make the muscles “remember” the good posture, even when you are not wearing the t-shirt.
