Adaptive Outdoor Collection
The Riverbend collection is an adaptive friendly Fall/Winter 2025 women’s outdoor lifestyle collection specifically designed for hiking and other outdoor activities. The colors, textures, and silhouettes are inspired by the wildlife of creeks and rivers in Pennsylvania. The collection nis colorful yet muted, mimicking colors found in animals, plants, and rocks that are part of river ecosystems. The collection incorporates adaptive features specifically for people with low mobility and ambulatory wheelchair users. The adaptive features focus on helping people dress themselves more easily through widening necklines and zippers or elastic closures. Additionally, increased access to forearms and calves is helpful for amputees or people who wear braces or other assistive devices, which is why it is a big priority in the design of these garments. The adaptive features are included in a functional yet subtle way as design features that serve to increase the wearability of these garments for all people.
