Adaptive Clothing
Adaptive clothing is for the elderly or disabled. Adaptive clothing refers to clothing designed for people with physical disabilities, the elderly, and the disabled who may experience difficulty dressing themselves due to an inability to manipulate closures, such as buttons and zippers, or due to a lack of a full range of motion required for self-dressing. Adaptive clothing typically offers rear-closure designs so that an indivdual can be dressed more easily by a caretaker. Rather than buttons and zippers, velcro is a more often used for garment closures.
