GlideWear Shear Protection Underwear, featuring a dual layer low friction zone (manufactured by Tamarack Habilitation Technologies)

After recently introducing GlideWear Skin Protection Underwear for Men and GlideWear Skin Protection Shorts for Women, designed specifically for wheelchair users and individuals who are at-risk for skin breakdown from extended bed-stay, we went on the hunt for companies who specialize in the design, manufacture, and sale of adaptive clothing. We hope that, one day, our innovative skin protection garments will become a household name for  individuals seeking protection and relief from skin breakdown.
