Knix, Longevity Bra, Black, Large

Product Information

Speak to an appropriate professional first to clarify what you need, as most applications require the support of a qualified health or medical professional. Numerous chemicals are used in textile production and some of these chemicals can cause allergic reactions. If you use a wheelchair, you may find that some standard clothes are not practical or comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Wrap-around tops, cardigans and skirts may be easier, although you may need to be able to secure them at the waist. A small percentage of elastane or Lycra also makes fabric more stretchy, and can help it regain its shape after being stretched.

The company had secured its biggest space ever for the 2020 sale, but the world around Knix soon made it clear that it would not be possible to hold the event as planned.There are a range of dressing techniques that can be used depending on what difficulties you have with dressing. If you find dressing difficult, there are a number of things you can try to remain independent with dressing. There are also items of specialised equipment if you have particular requirements, such as keeping warm.

Front fastening clothes will make stoma care easier and clothes with room for movement and room for a slightly fuller stoma bag might be comfier. The sale helped Knix move inventory faster and more efficiently than its physical warehouse sale ever could have. Wearing a few lighter weight garments is likely to be warmer and more comfortable than a heavy coat for example. I bought the standard black and really pleased that the hook eye fastening is easy to use and does not compromise the style. Padded sticks are available if you have very delicate skin, which also helps with gripping the stick.

Latex clothing is cut smaller than the body for a snug, flattering fit, so the measurements in the chart below are not the same as the garments measured when flat. Natural fibres are often most comfortable, are breathable and are best at maintaining body temperature. If you are a wheelchair user, you may also need to consider wearing longer trousers, so that they do not expose the bag when you are seated. Bras can be difficult to fasten at the back, and hook and eye fastenings can be difficult to manage.
