This is the Vantelin Kowa Supporter for the lower back, made by Kowa Co., Ltd., designed to support lower back pain with a firm compression type. The cross taping structure firmly supports the lower back from the lumbar spine to the pelvis while restricting twisting of the waist. It provides a sense of security. The specially shaped hard back panel that fits the curve of the lower back efficiently supports the lower back. The V-shaped fitting shape and adjustable auxiliary belt lift the lower abdomen, allowing for easy adjustment of the fixing force. It uses highly breathable, thin fabric, making it less prone to stuffiness and comfortable to wear. I don't remember using it, and there are no pills. - Brand: VANTELIN - Color: Black - Type: Lower Back Support Belt Thank you for viewing. Please contact me if you have any questions!
