Keeps your arms below your head while you sleep.
A sleep shirt with a zipper down each side. Zipped, you can still roll over and get comfortable — your arms just can't go up over your shoulders. Unzipped, it's a normal shirt.
This is for you if raising your arm hurts.
That's the whole test. We don't need to know what your doctor called it, or whether you've been. If your arm going up is the part that hurts, then it going up for hours while you're asleep is worth doing something about.
Six hours is not six seconds.
Put your arm over your head right now. Nothing happens — you’re fine. You’re awake, and in thirty seconds you’d put it down without thinking.
Asleep, that system is off. You get into the position and you hold it. For half an hour. An hour. Night after night, for years.
It isn’t that the position is dangerous. It’s that you’re holding it far longer than you ever would on purpose.
One mechanical thing.
Shop the shirt-
THE ZIPPER
A 14-inch zipper runs from the armpit down the underside of each sleeve. Zipped, the sleeve is joined to the body — your arm moves, but it can't rise above your shoulder. Patent pending.
-
YOU SET THE RANGE
Slide it to wherever you want and it locks there. A little hold or a lot. One arm or both.
-
IT'S JUST A SHIRT
95% cotton, 5% spandex. Thumbholes so the sleeves stay put. Nothing to strap on. Unzipped, it's a long-sleeve tee.
Bed only. Unzip before you get up — every time.
Zipped, your arm can’t go above your shoulder. That also means it can’t catch you if you trip. Unzip both sleeves before you stand, and don’t wear it zipped while walking, on stairs, or anywhere you could fall.
If you get up in the night, unzip first — it takes two seconds. It’s a sleep shirt. Treat it like one.

Before you ask
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it hold my arm down?
Does it hold my arm down?
No. It stops your arm going above your shoulder — that’s all. Everything else moves: rolling over, arm across your chest, hand under the pillow at chest height. It’s a normal shirt with one thing it won’t let you do.
Can I wear it zipped around the house?
Can I wear it zipped around the house?
No. Bed only. Zipped, your arm can’t go above your shoulder — which also means it can’t catch you if you trip. Unzip both sleeves before you get out of bed, every time, including in the night. Unzipped, wear it anywhere.
If your hand or arm goes numb or tingles while you’re wearing it, unzip and stop for the night. If it keeps happening, or happens without the shirt, that’s a question for your doctor, not for us.
How does it work?
How does it work?
The zipper joins each sleeve to the body of the shirt. You can still roll over, shift, get comfortable — your arm just can't rise above your shoulder. That keeps it in a more natural position for the hours you're not paying attention.
Can I choose how much it holds?
Can I choose how much it holds?
Yes. Slide the zipper to any point and it locks there. Fully open, nothing's holding. Fully closed, the most. One arm or both. Unzip before you walk around.
Is it comfortable?
Is it comfortable?
It's a cotton tee. The first few nights you'll notice the hold when you reach up — that's it working.

Who shouldn't use this?
Who shouldn't use this?
If you're recovering from a stroke or a spinal cord injury, or you can't easily move your own arm, please don't — talk to your physio. If you're post-surgery and your surgeon has you in a sling, that sling is doing a job this shirt isn't designed for. Ask them first.
