Global Adaptive Clothing Market Definition

Adaptive clothing is clothing made for those with physical limitations, the aged, and patients recovering from surgery. As they have difficulties dressing and undressing, some persons prefer adaptable attire. Adaptive clothing covers items such as adaptive pants and tops, locking clothes, open-back clothing, and so on. Velcro or magnetic closures from zippers and buttons are commonly used to replace these garments.

Flat stitches are common in adaptive clothing to avoid friction, as well as modest alterations to appear as close to traditional fashion as feasible. These are the clothing with a stretchy waist for improved comfort and safety, as well as clothing tailored to accommodate incontinence devices or with a longer back length to support those sitting in wheelchairs.

And it gets biggerthat 60+ group is expected to jump from 1 billion in 2020 to 1.4 billion by 2050. That means, by 2050, we'll essentially have double the number of older people (2.1 billion!) globally. Even more striking, the number of people 80 and older is predicted to triple between 2020 and 2050, hitting 426 million.
