Arthritis Clothing
Arthritis is one of the most prevalent chronic health problems. It affects nearly 1 in every 3 adults in the USA. At Buck and Buck, we strive to provide solutions for the limitations related to independence that can occur as a result of disabilities caused by arthritis. We have several arthritis clothing designs that foster independent dressing such as hook and loop closures or zippers rather than buttons, generous elastic waistbands that make the garment easy to pull on, and necklines in some dresses and tops that allow for easy, over the head dressing. We can also put grab loops into our slacks, culottes and pants that will help the senior with arthritis to pull on the clothing without the assistance of a caregiver.
Women's Arthritis Clothing Styles
Choose from our arthritis clothing for women based upon the person’s ability to dress herself. The person dresses independently (self dresser) or needs help to dress (assisted dressing).
Women’s Arthritis Clothing – Dresses Independently/Self Dresser
Our zip-front knit dresses are easy wear dresses for the woman with arthritis. The easy grasp zipper pull makes independent dressing easier. We have many other dresses, dusters and muu muus that zip up the front or pull on over the head for you to look at for the woman with arthritis.
Our culottes and slacks have a generous elastic waistband that makes dressing for the woman with arthritis a little easier. If arthritic fingers cause difficulty in pulling up the pants, we will sew in grab loops. The hands are slipped into the loops to help her to pull up the slacks without having to close the fingers. This technique works well for the person with arthritis. Just let us know if you want this done when you place your order. You can make the outfit complete with coordinating blouses, T-shirts and sweaters.
