7 Great Adaptive Clothing Brands Leading The Way in Functional Wear

If you’re like me you are all in on watching the Olympics! Although the regular Olympic games are now over, lucky for us, the games are not over!

Today is the official start of the Paralympic Games in Paris which are just as, if not even more exciting! I always found it incredibly inspirational to watch the athlete’s who have lived a different life than many, excel in so many different events despite the cards they’ve been given.

Right here in the United States, out of our roughly 334 million people, around 42.5 million people (roughly 13% of the population live with a disability. This is a huge part of our community, yet why do so many brands ignore this fact?

Thankfully, adaptive fashion has slowly started entering the fashion industry, with many more large brands creating incredible clothing for those living with disabilities. Just a few years ago you may have needed to go hunting deep online to find niche adaptive clothing brands, many of which offering limited options due to lack of budget. 

Check out these 7 major fashion brands who have made functional fashion a core part of their brand, encouraging others to follow suit in the goal of making the fashion industry inclusive for all women.
