Don't you hate trying to find a shirt with the proper fit to wear with your brace? Search no more. You found us.
To get the best fit, we need some measurements. It may seem inconvenient at first but understand, we do not mass produce anything! Here at Brace Buddies, every item is made to order just for you!
Here are the measurements you'll need. "C" Size - The Circumference of the largest measurement around your torso. Just the body without the brace. Let us know the wiast as well. "TH" Size - The Torso Height is the measurement from the bend of your hip or bottom of the brace to the top of your shoulder. "SA" Size - The shoulder to armpit is the measurement from the top of the shoulder to under the armpit and back to the top of the shoulder again. "B" Size - The bicep size is the measurement of the largest part of the upper arm. OR if you want to choose the exact shirt length and size you want, enter those details in the comments section.
Complete all fields and "Add to Cart". Prices change according to the "C" Size. Reach out to us with questions or add comments to the measurements section.
***IF YOU HAVE ORDERED BEFORE AND YOU KNOW THE EXACT LENGTH AND WIDTH YOU WANT, ADD THESE DETAILS TO THE COMMENTS.***
SOME OF THE PRODUCT IMAGES ARE OF THE BRACE BUDDIES BODY SOCK ON A MANNEQUIN. The images are intended to show fabric colour only and do not show what the finished shirt will look like.
TINY TODDLER - For tiny toddlers in back braces. The Tiny Toddler shirts are not made for circumference measurements larger than 23" and Torso Height longer than 14" in length. If measurements are beyond these, you must order the regular size. Provide all accurate measurements in the order so we are sure to make the correct size for your precious little one! Keep reading for more details. Message us with any questions.
NOTES FOR SIZING!! – The shirts are made according to the measurements provided so take care to measure each of the following.
“C” Size is the shirt Width
You MUST select the correct Circumference “C” size. If you order a size too small the shirt will NOT fit over the brace! To get the correct size, measure the chest and waist to get the largest circumference of the torso, then use that largest number to select your “C” Size.
Adding the measurements helps us ensure the correct size was ordered.
If you have any concerns or would like to add a special request, please add notes to the comments section.
“TH” Size is the shirt Length
Measure from the bend in your hip to the top of your shoulder to get your “TH” Size (Torso Height). Then select that shirt length. We will make the shirt according to the measurements provided.
“SA” Size is the Shoulder size
Measure from the top of the shoulder around the underarm and back up to the top of the shoulder again.
This measurement helps to ensure there is not too little or too much fabric in the armpit.
“B” Size is the Bicep size
Measure around the widest part of the bicep.
This measurement helps to ensure the shirt is not too tight or too loose.
SLTS – Single Layer T-Shirt
The T-Shirt is gender neutral.
The T-Shirt is made with a single layer of fabric.
They are special form fitting, extra long, custom made T-Shirts to fit your body.
These shirts are designed to be long enough to fold up over the bottom of the brace.
We take all the measurements to make sure the shirt is sized exactly right for you.
We have taken great care in the details of our manufacturing to make sure the side seams do not feel bulky.
The finishes around the sleeves and neck are simple and flat so they also are not bulky.
Most t-shirts are everyday T-shirts that feel heavy and bulky. So, we carefully designed this shirt to look and feel like a true undershirt for under your brace.
It is sleek, slim and fit to your body.
This shirt is manufactured to be reversable from front to back.
The T-shirt can also be worn right-side out or right-side in.
As all shirts are custom made, you request a smaller or larger neck size opening.

All Brace Buddies fabrics can be washed in cold water by machine or hand washing. They can be tumbled dry on low, hung or dried flat. They should be changed at least once a day to ensure optimal comfort and durability. Do not bleach.
Fabric - All fabrics we use are machine washable and can go in the dryer. We recommend washing in cold water with like colours and use low heat or hang to dry. Do not use hot wash or hot dryer and do not use harsh chemicals such as bleach.
The fabric options are made from,
90% Bamboo Rayon/10% Lycra
Specially selected fabric blend and weight of 260 gsm.
It is ordered and manufactured locally here in Ontario, Canada.
We carefully considered the best fabric combination to ensure durability while still being lightweight and not too heavy or thick.
The fabric blend allows the shirt to fit slim to the body while still being sturdy enough to handle the stretching required to fit over the brace.
Bamboo Rayon is considered to have naturally occurring antimicrobial, antibacterial and moisture wicking properties. This means, the shirt does not hold bacteria as well as other fabrics so it won’t smell as bad as some can after a day of brace wearing!
This fabric is cool to the touch, so it doesn’t feel as hot as some other fabrics.
The shirts are manufactured with a stich that will allow the stitched area to stretch as much as the fabric does.
88% Micro Modal / 12% Lycra – Our favourite!!
Specially selected fabric blend and weight of 260 gsm.
It is ordered and manufactured locally here in Ontario, Canada.
Micro Modal has high moisture wicking properties and fantastic breathability.
We carefully considered the best fabric combination to ensure durability while still being lightweight and not too heavy or thick.
The Micro Modal is exceptionally soft and has a luxurious silky feel.
This fabric is resistant to shrinkage.
This fabric does not retain heat.
This fabric is not prone to pilling.
Micro Modal is becoming more popular for high quality undergarments and baby wear.
The Micro Modal is well known for having the ability to maintain its shape and colour.
The Micro Modal is less prone to wrinkles.
The Micro Modal is incredibly sturdy and strong. For this reason, we were able to add even more stretch to this fabric blend without sacrificing the durability.
The fabric blend allows the shirt to fit slim to the body while still being sturdy enough to handle the stretching required to fit over the brace.
This fabric is cool to the touch, so it does not feel as hot as some other fabrics.
The shirts are manufactured with a stich that will allow the stitched area to stretch as much as the fabric does.
92% Cotton / 8% Spandex –
The Combed Cotton is the Fabric that Brace Buddies started with.
We get our Combed Cotton supplied by a local importer.
The Combed Cotton is a step above the average cotton. There is a process in the manufacturing that removes the small prickly bits and impurities out of the cotton. This means the fabric will not be as prickly under the hot and sweaty brace as other regular cotton fabrics would be.
This fabric is incredibly durable and can withstand a great deal of stretch. When cared for properly, this shirt is expected to last for a minimum of two years, if it still fits that long.
The shirts are manufactured with a stich that will allow the stitched area to stretch as much as the fabric does.
Seams
There are two flat side seams in this shirt.
They are manufactured with care to prevent thick, heavy, and itchy stitching on the sides.
The seams are sewn to allow as much stretching as the fabric can stretch.
Tip 1. Get the colours you prefer to see in your wardrobe.
Tip 2. If you need something special, such as, g-tube access, please message us in the comments on the order page or in the Notes section of the Cart.
Tip 3. How to measure: Using a fabric measuring tape, measure around the body at the widest part of the chest, the smallest part of the waist and the widest part of the hip. If you do not have a fabric measuring tape, use a string to wrap around the body marking the length and measure the mark on the string with a measuring tape afterward.
You'll receive your shipping notification within about a week of your order.
