XP w MF: Adaptive clothing for leg injuries

Does anyone have a good resource/link for adaptive clothing for a Soldier with leg injuries?  I came across Sew Much Comfort, which is a great start.  Considering the recovery, though, 2 pairs of underwear probably aren't enough, and everything else I've come across is for elderly patients.

 Thanks!

  • Have you gotten in contact with the Wounded Warrior Project? Or a Warrior Transition Unit?  They might have some resources to refer you to. Please check back in!

  • When my husband was hurt, he was given several shirts from Soldier's Angels and from Wounded Warrior Project.  Also, if you know anyone who sews, you can easily rip down the side seam of pants and sew on velcro or snaps, if that would help him.

  • Thank you, both, for the ideas!  I had [obviously] thought of none of them.

  • Try contacting Wounded Wear - their entire program is designed to provide adaptive clothing for wounded service members.  Sorry, I don't know how to make a clicky, but http://woundedwear.org/Wounded_Wear_New/Wounded_Wear_Home.html.
