@phxratt1 Thanks for that. I asked my HSS doctor, and he said just look on Amazon and read the reviews. So I did, and Sparthos was one of the braces I picked out. Good to have a real person's opinion.

May I ask what condition gives you pain? We're all so different that I do wonder whether what's right for person A is right for person B.

@anewyorker I've had 2 microdiscectomies (L4-5, L5-S1) and a lumbar fusion at L4-5. I still have low back pain, probably caused by scar tissue that has formed after the surgeries. It's called Failed back surgery syndrome, I think. I also have a spinal cord stimulator to help deaden the pain. Good luck to you.
