Bowtie Vice

Bowtie Vice

Shoulder pain, stiffness and tightness is an epidemic amongst athletes and everyday people. This is the result of athletes constantly performing with their shoulders flexing forward and nearly every other day-to-day activity, including driving, eating, texting and working, all contributing to that same uncomfortable and unhealthy ‘hunched’ forward position. The solution; properly applied compression! Created by former professional athlete Donnie Thompson and manufactured  by Spud Inc, the original Thompson Bowtie has helped thousands of shoulders feel better and performance better. How? The Bowtie was designed to provide evenly distributed compression around the shoulders (glenoids) helping to guide them back into their proper position (central socket). Worn during activity or at rest, the Bowtie helps reduce tightness in the shoulders, helps open up the chest and upper body (relieving pressure on the brachial plexus) while also reducing stress on surrounding tissues including the bicep tendon. Immediately upon its release, the original Bowtie set a new standard for wearable compression. Now the all new Bowtie Vice goes even further. Developed over the last three years, the Bowtie Vice features stronger material for nearly twice the compression, longer straps for easy adjustment and is even more comfortable than the original so it can be worn for several hours at a time with zero numbness, discomfort or pinching.
