This sling, now that I've sewn a little thumb piece on it so it doesn't slip, is perfect. The water flows through it and it dries fast. Also, when the fancy heavy sling I got from the hospital just gets too darned hot and sweaty, this gives me a cool-off break.
Note: it DOES come with an inner strap to hold it in place. But I'm a large woman (the hospital gave me an XL sling,) so that doesn't work for a larger person. It would stay in place just fine for a regular or small person.
Also, they had enough sense to put the velcro strap adjustment on the front side of the sling. My fancy $200 hospital sling has the stupid adjustment on the back, so you have to keep taking it on and off to adjust the strap length.
If you had to wear this for a long period of time, the strap, which does not have padding, would probably start to dig into your opposite shoulder and neck. But it's perfect for me and a great price.

Washbrook: Husband used this to stabilise arm after having a CRTP fitted and he was not supposed to lift arm. This did the job well and the mesh prevents any overheating but the shoulder strap, despite the padded section, still digs into the shoulder a bit after a whole day. Could probably do with a wider shoulder support to spread the weight. Otherwise, it did the job.

Bazza: When I left the hospital, they gave me an arm sling similar in design to this one with one big difference. The other was heavy duty solid fabric and this one is mesh. It is still 90+ degrees where I live and am willing to trade long term durability for comfort. I am 5'9" male and this fits me perfectly when I slide my hand between the webbing and the mesh on the inside to keep my elbow locked in place. The shoulder pad is also a nice touch.

Phil L: Kind of flimsy but much easier to put on as compared to the bulky sling the hospital put on me. Let’s my arm get some airflow. You can shower with it and not have water dripping all over the bathroom floor.
Personally I take it off when showering now. I can move my right arm a little better now but now 100% better.

Alexa: Very pleased with this. In this hot weather, the mesh allows air circulation, though my daughter thought it was a style statement which is, I guess, bonus. There is a thumb slot that keeps it from slipping out of place.

CW: Daughter suffered a broken elbow which needed to be in fixed sling 24h a day. purchased two of these slings for wet activities. Perfect for going in the sea, pool and showering. Dry quickly ready for next use.

Nicola G: I ordered this as it was an Amazon's choice item. I am recovering from a broken humerus. This provides me with great support in the shower and also when out walking. I've just ordered a second so I have one for showering and the other for when I am out and about Adjustable length, would highly recommend.
