Product Description
The R238 Children's Back Fastening Fleece is designed to provide warmth, comfort, and practicality for children with additional needs. Traditional fleeces can be difficult to put on and take off, especially for those who use wheelchairs with multiple straps or have limited mobility. This adaptive fleece solves that challenge, offering an easy-wear solution without compromising on style or warmth.
Unlike standard fleeces, this innovative design opens fully at the back, making dressing and undressing far easier for both the child and their carer. The lower back section is removed to prevent uncomfortable bunching when seated, ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit. This thoughtful design helps the fleece sit neatly around the neck and reduces excess bulk—perfect for children using thoracic chair supports or harnesses.
Made from high-quality 330gm polar fleece with an anti-pill finish, this jacket is both durable and soft, offering reliable warmth without the bulk of a coat. The elasticated cuffs help to keep heat in, while the two side pockets provide practicality and a classic look.
This everyday essential is easy to wash, quick to dry, and built to last, making it a must-have for changing weather conditions.
