The wheelchair backrest already keeps your back protected and warm. This ease of taking it on and off without needing to change position or physically move makes it faster to get ready to go and also makes it comfortable to even ask a stranger if necessary, such as a waitress at a restaurant, to help pull it off.   Who Designed for any disabled or handicapped wheelchair user, it is perfect for individuals with reduced leg circulation. Independance for someone with limited arm strength or limited dexterity, unable to put on or take off a conventional heavy winter coat or struggles with sleeves and zippers.

Quality is in the details - designed by the disabled for the disabled with the detailed, loving touch only a mother can add!   CLEARANCE ITEM - Our customers who have purchased these over the years absolutely love them! Unfortunately our customers don't usually think of us for clothing. And these are expensive relative to a jacket you might buy that was produced at much lower cost such as Vietnam commonly. The two layers are more than four yards of the highest quality Polartech microfiber fleece, just in the materials is expensive. They were produced by professional seamstress here in the United States. So these are a premium product and we just haven't sold enough volume to justify the inventory carrying costs. We can always produce more, or more likely a batch of 10 to 20 for any dealer or organization or anyone who would want to market these who's better at marketing clothing and fashion.  These last more than 10 years - there's never been a technical or quality issue. As a clearance item these are discounted and available only for exchange. If you find you would prefer the larger or smaller size or different color we would be happy to exchange from what's available.
