Details

Get dressed without lifting, reaching overhead, or bending your arm. This adaptive long sleeve top opens fully along the shoulder and side seam, letting you slide your arm in and fasten up without any overhead movement at all.

Available in two closure styles:
- Velcro Opening: easy to fasten with one hand, quiet to open, and simple to adjust
- Zip Opening stays securely closed during wear, easy zip pull for those who prefer a firmer closure

It looks like a regular long sleeve top when worn closed. The relaxed fit sits comfortably over casts, dressings, or swollen limbs without pulling or binding.

Who it's designed for:
- Men recovering from shoulder, arm, or upper body surgery
- Anyone with a cast, sling, or post-operative dressing
- Men with arthritis, limited shoulder mobility, or reduced arm strength
- Stroke survivors or anyone dressing with one hand
- Carers assisting with upper body dressing

How the opening works:
- Velcro or zip runs along the shoulder and full length of the arm on both sides
- Open one or both sides fully to slide the arm in, no lifting required
- Fasten once the arm is in place
- Wear fully closed, partially open, or fully open depending on your needs

Material & Care

Fabric: 100% Cotton, soft, breathable, and skin-friendly.
Colour: Grey

Washing instructions:
- Machine wash: gentle cycle, cold or warm water
- Fasten ALL Velcro or close ALL zips before washing, this prevents snagging and protects closure quality over time
- Tumble dry low or air dry
- Do not bleach or iron directly over Velcro or zip

Size

Sizes available: M, L, XL/2L, XXL/3L

Size charts are shown in the product images. Measure your chest and refer to the chart for best fit.

This top has a relaxed, loose fit, if you are between sizes or need extra room for a cast or dressing, size up.

FAQs

Q: Can I put this on without any help?
A: Yes, the full-length arm openings mean you can dress independently by opening one side, sliding your arm in, and fastening up. Many people with limited shoulder mobility or one functioning arm manage this independently. For very limited mobility, carer assistance makes it even easier.

Q: Will it fit over a cast or dressing?
A: Yes, the full arm opening and relaxed fit are specifically designed to accommodate casts, bandages, and post-operative dressings without feeding the arm through a sleeve.

Q: What's the difference between Velcro and Zip?
A: Both open the same way - full shoulder and arm opening. Velcro is easier to fasten with one hand and quiet to open. Zip stays more
securely closed and some people find the zip pull easier to grip. If unsure, contact us for advice.

Q: Does it look like a medical garment?
A: No, with the closure fastened it looks like a regular long sleeve top. The Velcro or zip runs along the side seams and is not visible from the front.

Q: Can I wear it just for easier dressing, without an injury?
A: Absolutely. Many customers use this top every day simply because it's easier to put on, particularly for arthritis, stiff shoulders, or reduced arm strength, with no injury involved.

Q: Is there a women's / men's version?
A: Yes, we have both Men's and Women's cuts. The design is the same, only the sizing differs. If the women's size feels snug, you can size up into the men's range for a more comfortable fit.
