Individuals Who Benefit Most
These are people who experience greater comfort, independence, and confidence thanks to our easy-to-use, one-handed, and sensory-friendly fasteners.
People with Arthritis
Pain, stiffness, and reduced grip from osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis make buttons and zippers difficult.
Stroke Survivors
Hemiparesis or hemiplegia often limits one side of the body—making true one-handed clothing solutions critical.
Parkinson's Disease Patients
Tremors and slow movement (bradykinesia) can make small fasteners frustrating or inaccessible.
Amputees / Limb Difference
Users with upper limb difference or limited dexterity need clothing that doesn't require bilateral input.
Cerebral Palsy & Muscular Dystrophy
Spasticity, weakness, or coordination issues limit hand use—requiring adaptive fastening systems.
Spinal Cord Injury Survivors
Limited fine motor control or hand dexterity due to SCI - individuals benefit from simplified, independent dressing tools.
People with Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
Fluctuating grip strength and dexterity require flexible clothing solutions that accommodate good and bad days.
Older Adults / Seniors
Age-related changes in strength, joint flexibility, and vision increase the need for intuitive dressing solutions.
Other Disability Communities
Autism / Sensory Sensitivities
Soft fabrics, tagless designs, and smooth fasteners reduce sensory overload during dressing.
Visual Impairment
Tactile cues and fasteners that align without sight (e.g., magnetic or guided) to support independence.
Essential Tremor
Unsteady hands benefit from larger or simplified fasteners instead of zippers or small buttons.
Acute and Alternate Users
Injury Recovery
People healing from fractures or sprains often can’t use one hand—one-handed dressing becomes essential.
Post-Surgical Patients
Shoulder or hand surgeries can temporarily prevent normal dressing—adaptive clothing aids recovery.
Women who are Pregnant/Postpartum
Reduced range of motion or C-section limitations call for easier, more comfortable clothing options.
Occupational Needs
