The Men’s Adaptive Back-Opening Long Sleeve Shirt – 7255 is designed to look like a conventional long-sleeved shirt from the front while providing easier access for assisted dressing at the back.
The shirt opens fully from the back and fastens at the neckline, allowing it to be placed around the wearer while they remain seated in a chair or wheelchair. This can reduce the need to lift the arms during dressing, making it particularly useful for people with restricted movement or those who find conventional dressing difficult.
The back of the shirt is longer than the front to provide additional coverage when seated. Its discreet adaptive design helps maintain the appearance of everyday clothing while supporting comfort, dignity and easier dressing.
