Shoulder - labrum tear, dislocations

My son is a wrestler and was a state qualifier last year. In the spring, he suffered a tear of the labrum and already had shoulders that were quite elastic and could on command pop out either shoulder. He had surgery in June and is trying to make a come back, but
needs a brace to keep his shoulder from going "too far". I've seen the McDavid and the Pro line. It looks to me like the Pro Line might be better for him.

Unique design guides and centers the glenohumeral joint promoting mobility but inhibiting rotation. Aids in preventing the subluxing shoulder.
