The Able Label clothes provide style, comfort and quality with adapted designs and hidden extras that make dressing easier for those with dressing difficulties
The Able Label range has been designed to help with a variety of physical and cognitive needs and also aims to encourage self-confidence and independence. The quality fabrics, discreet adaptive designs, innovative fastenings and hidden extras make dressing easier for those who may suffer from restricted movement or lack of finger dexterity. The design of the garments has also taken carers' requirements into account so assisted dressing is quicker, easier and safer. Yet when they're being worn, no one would know they were adapted... it's their secret!
What do they offer?
They appreciate that it's often the little things in life that can make the biggest difference so attention to detail is always at the heart of everything they do. Here are some of the clever little design features:
- Fiddly fastenings are replaced with quality hook and loop closures that will last as long as the garment when washed correctly - far easier to use than traditional fastenings.
- Colour co-ordinated tape and hook loop fasteners inside help those with cognitive difficulties to get dressed - 'red for right' and 'lime for left'.
- Wrap styles make dressing quicker, easier and safer for the wearer - and possibly also for caregivers assisting with dressing.
- Shirts fasten with discreet hook and loop patches and have colour co-ordinated armholes making them easier to find.
- There are no fastenings on trousers so they're easier to get on and off.
- All material used is natural, soft and breathable with added stretch for extra comfort and more 'give' when dressing and undressing.
- No items are dressed over the head.
- Putting an outfit together is easy with our range of beautiful, co-ordinating colours.
- The easy-care fabric needs little maintenance and wash at 40 degrees.
- Sizes range from 8 - 22.
