WHAT IS ADAPTIVE CLOTHING?
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In which I unbox an awesome haul of Tommy Adaptive for my upcoming Instagram campaign! Browse the Tommy Adaptive catalog: usa.tommy.com/en/tommy-adapti...
I applaud Tommy Hilgfiger's leadership in being the first mainstream clothing brand to enter this market. And even though these clothes cost way more to make because of the adaptive additions and because the scale is so small, the adaptive pieces are priced the same as their non-adaptive counterparts. Which is to say, I'm sure Tommy is losing money on this. But they're doing it, as far as I can tell, because it's the right thing to do. It's a statement about Tommy's values.
And hopefully, in the long run, as more people learn about and purchase adaptive clothing, and as more brands at all price points enter the market, everyone can win: People will be able to buy adaptive clothing at all price points from luxury to economy, and the scale will mean that it makes good business sense for brands, too.
We aren't there yet, obviously. Which is why I like to be able to spread the word about awesome stuff like this as a Tommy Partner.

@@JoshSundquist I’m asking because it looks like we have the same build ! I saw a nice adaptive shirt that I want to purchase but it looks wide but I prefer a more snug slim fit kind!
"Sorry, I can't get into work today... I'm stuck to the fridge"
Not gonna lie, that watch should be the normal model. It just looks easier to put it in. And it also looks really good
What an awesome clothing line! As someone who worked in a theatre costume shop I have modified a lot of clothes to look like they still had buttons but actually closed with velcro or snaps to help with quick changes - just goes to show that there are multiple markets for these types of products and more companies should definitely follow Tommy Hilfiger.
I LOVE all of the items I have from the adoptive line! I just wish there were more choices, Especially fit-wise because I am really skinny and I don't like swimming in the fabric.

Yeah same I’m very skinny. Most everything I wear from any brand other than euro-fit type brands I actually take to a tailor and have it brought in (and also get the pant leg taken off) 🤷♂️
Love these adaptive clothes! Also wish they were more size inclusive. While clothes can be taken in, for larger sized people this is unfortunately still not accessible. Are they more expensive than their non-adaptive counterparts? Any chance of seeing a time of selling individual right or left shoes?
I'm so impressed by the magnet closures. That's awesome! You look good in all the clothes.
Thanks. The sweatshirt was of particular interest to me. Way back when I had a pinched nerve in my neck which meant that I did not have full control of my left arm. And I was getting stuck in my sweatshirt because I couldn't push with that arm. It was quite a claustrophobia-inducing moment. I doubt that problem, although temporary for me, was unique for me. How wonderful to have clothing that is easier to get in and out of for people without full control of their limbs.
I freakin LOVE your sense of humor, clothes on your refrigerator door. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Btw you made the perfect model for the clothes. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I'm curious how it works to wash the items with magnets. Do they stick to the sides of the washing machine and dryer?

I have a pair of convertible fleece gloves/mittens that have a magnet on the back, and they stick to the sides of the dryer but not the washing machine, and get clean and dry just fine!
What an awesome idea!! Some companies have been starting to use real life models of any shape and size which is already awesome, but this adaptive line takes including everyone no matter who they are or what theyre able to do to a whole new level! A++ to Hilfiger!
I had no idea they made adaptive clothing… but yay!
Looks and sounds like a great thing! One concern I have tho is if things have magnets, how does it affect the feel/weight of the clothing? I feel like I could definitely benefit from some of these but I also have sensory processing disorder and am very particular with clothing.

@@laurarogers7560 I feel like velcro and magnets would wash ok. Buttons and zippers are metal and wash. As long as the washing machine isn't magnetic I think it would be okay? I can't really check the website since the clothing is not available in my country and information was a bit hard to find outside of the video.
I hole more brands and companies can start adaptive clothing lines too, especially lines that look the same as their other lines. It would also be nice to see clothing lines that help people easily access feeding tubes, central lines and things like that as well. Thanks for sharing some good in this world.😊
I know Modibodi have continence undies that also have the Velcro and loop setup. A lot of disabled people have continence issues, it only makes sense to make washable underwear that is also adaptive. They also work as regular period undies too.
Oh, my gosh! I lost my spit when I saw the clothes stuck to the fridge!
This is amazing! Love it!
I'm pretty sure that watch band is just an Apple Watch Milanese Loop, they've had that design for years now. But I love all the magnet stuff. I don't even need them, but I want them.
Lost my leg 30yrs ago to a sarcoma. I don’t wear a prosthetic, I just flip the pant leg and tuck it behind my waist. I love the magnetic buttons!
Very cool. I've always heard about Tommy Hilfiger adaptive clothing, but have never seen it. Thanks for making this video.

OMG the clip at the end! I'm dead. XD So clever!!!
What sort of washing instructions come with the clothing pieces with magnets? Are they still really durable? I imagine with a handful of pieces with magnets they will all start to magnetize to each other or the side of the drums.
I wonder if there are any adaptive dresses with those buttons. I love the look of buttons on dresses but I hardly ever buy them or wrap dresses because they’re not practical for my hands! It would take a million years for me to get dressed! It’s so frustrating! When I was little I had such trouble with zippers and pants buttons. It’s so nice to see something like this! Do they have kids’ sizes?

*YES* there are! Ashley has one actually. Hit the link in the description box!
I need these to be the cool kid in the class
Question about all the magnet closures: Does it make that area of the garment heavier (i.e. a full "button" up shirt) or like are they lightweight enough that you completely forget the magnets are there to begin with??

It is a weight increase of course but not noticeably so. You only notice if you brush against like a metal table and a cuff magnet might try to attach to it hah
Nobody Josh: mAgNeTs!!!!
Can the elder get these clothes ?!?!?! This is genius
I am curious how is it living with only one foot ??
These are great Josh! ... Could you Model them? I think you'd be a great Model! No Homo
Added bonus, super fun striptease outfits haha ⚡️ 🧲 ⚡️ 🧲 ⚡️ 🧲 ⚡️ But really, I had no idea these types of options existed.. maybe link to any female youtubers also showing off their hauls??
Seeing Josh in underwear was funny for some reason
I have to laugh at you doing up your "button down" crooked.
