Every shift you work without back support costs you. Not just in pain during hour eight, but in the chiropractor visits, the ibuprofen habit, and the years it takes off the back end of your career.
A duty belt back support that fixes the root cause costs less than a single chiropractic adjustment.
- Redistributes 20+ pounds of gear weight across your lower back instead of through a narrow belt strip
- Matches smooth leather duty gear. Clean, traditional finish
- Invisible from the outside. No bulk, no profile change, no suspender straps under your shirt
- Two minutes to install. Thread your belt through the slots and go
Picture the difference between sitting on a nail and sitting in a chair. Same weight on your body. One destroys you over time; the other doesn't. Your holster, radio, cuffs, and every other piece of kit stays exactly where it was.
Thousands of officers across North America and four other countries wear a BackUpBrace on shift. The ones with leather belts wear this one. If your department mandates smooth leather and getting out of the cruiser at hour six makes you wince, this is the fix that doesn't require a uniform change or supervisor sign-off.
30-day money-back guarantee. One-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
Designed to match your Smooth Leather gear.
Includes two custom belt keepers and Velcro strip for additional security.

The Backupbrace definitely helps my lower back when driving in my sqaud and walking around. Would definitely recommend.
Thanks for sharing Edwin, and we are very pleased to hear about your excellent results using the BackUpBrace!
I bought the back brace about two weeks ago and it definitely helps reduce strain on my back with my duty belt i wear. It spreads out the weight and provides support to my lower back.
Bought the smooth leather.
Works great helps all day.
I had to have a shoemaker sew M/F velcro on both sides since my smooth leather duty belt has a inner velcro.
*Would suggest more options for velcro per unit and actual deminsion on sizes and belt mounting options and belt keeper holes should be bigger.

I had a back injury in November, I purchased the back up brace to wear on shift. It helps with pain thoughout the shift and minimizes how stiff my back is after work. I recommend if you have back problems or want to prevent back problems.
Sorry to hear about your injury Patrick, but we are very happy the BackUpBrace could help relieve your back pain after the fact.
