Adaptive clothing and travel gear

Last updated: 5 October 2026 · Total: 5 products

Standard clothes are cut for standing bodies and nimble fingers. Adaptive clothing changes that with magnetic or hook-and-loop closures, side or back openings and seated cuts, as in the Tommy Adaptive collection and the IZ Adaptive range, where trousers are higher at the back and free of bulky rear seams. Adaptive underwear such as Slick Chicks fastens at the sides so it can be changed while sitting or lying. Adaptive footwear like BILLY zip-around shoes opens fully to take a foot or an orthosis. Travel gear covers items that make journeys with a disability easier.

How to choose

  • For trousers, take measurements sitting down, as waist and leg length change in a seated position.
  • Choose closures to suit hand function: magnets need little grip, hook-and-loop tolerates imprecise aim.
  • Avoid thick seams, rivets and back pockets where you sit, since they press on the skin.
  • For shoes worn over an orthosis, check opening width and whether the insole can be removed.

Common questions

What is adaptive clothing?

It is clothing designed for people with disabilities, with features such as easy closures, openings placed for dressing while seated or lying, room for medical devices, and cuts that fit a seated posture.

What trousers are best for wheelchair users?

Seated-cut trousers have a higher back rise, a lower front, longer legs and flat rear seams without pockets. They stay in place when sitting and reduce pressure points under the body.
