How Durable is the Shock Doctor Shoulder Support? Does the fabric pill and make the velcro fasteners loosen up?

I'm not sure. I never wore it because it was so ill fitting it did nothing for my shoulder. It was a complete waste of money.

It has been holding up well. The fabric is not pilling or coming loose. It has been great for me.

Mine has been holding on quite well. However, my backup plan was going to be to use Velcro if it didn't hold. Maybe that will work for you.

No it only has a a strap that keeps it ib place with pressure. The strap goes in and with the pressure of the pulling force it stays in place for a little while. This isnt the one you want if you plan on long treks or long firefights. The strap comes undone and the plastic holding breaks. Look at JT brands for either velcro or elastic. Empire brands work too

Stays warm for quite awhile. I use the cold method and when it warms up, heat it and put back on. Has really helped me. I tore the tendons in my rotator cuff and have found this item the best of all I have tried. Best is that it stays put with the Velcro straps. Hope it helps you.

I really have not had any problems with the velcro on mine. I would suggest that you Google the company to help with a contact number...

I have the same problem and would recommend the Muco SR-4 which is a much lower profile shoulder rest. I have them both and the Muco is the one that works for me.

I have had mine 5-6 years and the velcro still works just as well today as it did when I bought it. I agree with another answer that said the strap would be quite simple to replace if you use it enough to wear it out.

Yes. I work the night shift and use mine daily. I have had no problems with it what so ever. The snap still works great as does the belt loop. Much better then some of the velcro ones I have used because the velcro seems to always wear out.

I use it on a recliner to support my neck. I never needed to or tried to make it stay in place with a fastener. You could see if the material sticks to the side of Velcro with the tiny hooks. if so, then that may work.

The Velcro is not a big deal at all!! I don't understand why some people hate it so much. I actually love it because it makes it so easy and possible to adjust to the most comfortable position possible.

This was purchased for my husband who is approximately 185 lbs. He has no problem with the fit. He usesit daily. The velco in the cuff holds it in place and does not pop open during the monitoring process.

I use the velcro as it is the strongest for holding the receiver on, but it does make it a little bulky.

Yes it would adjust however I would certainly look at some other brands with diffrent designe such as flex force. The problem that I have with mine is , since it is 60 lbs vest the Velcro on shoulder adjustment come apart every time . I would look at it other brands before you purchase this vest.

I have been using it for at least 2 months. No problem with all 3 Velcro straps.

I've owned mine more than 2 months. .about 4 months and use it everyday..and there's NO sign of the velcro even trying to come off. If youve owned yours for that short amount of time and have that issue. .I'd ask for an exchange.
