Boston Soft Body Jacket Customised

The BSBJ remains flexible while providing support with strategically placed co-polymer Stays (reinforcements) which increase diaphragm expansion to improve respiration. Choose from Removable or Permanent Stays. Alternatively, the product can be manufactured with either an internal or external polypropylene frame, where slightly more rigidity is required.
