I recently attended a local Multiple Sclerosis Society function that included vendors promoting adaptive equipment, support organizations, and self-help books. My husband and I lingered at one particular table where a representative was demonstrating adaptive clothing. We watched as he showed onlookers the versatility of his Velcro shirts and pants. “Quick Change Clothing”, he said, “makes it easy for someone with MS or their caretaker to put on and take off clothing.”
This rep went on to explain to us that the company originally tried to market the clothing— which uses Velcro closures on the seams for easy on and off— to professional athletes, but since major athletic outfitters were their major competitors, the company decided to fill the need for people with physical impairments who could benefit from the clothing.
