Why Clothing Matters

Tremors, rigidity, and limited dexterity make traditional clothing difficult.

What to Look For

• Velcro closures instead of buttons

• Stretch fabrics for easier movement

• Wide‑leg or side‑zip pants

• Slip‑on shoes

• Magnetic closures (if safe for the individual)

Caregiver Tips

• Avoid tight sleeves

• Choose lightweight layers to prevent overheating
