At Joe & Bella, we recognize that daily routines can become particularly challenging for ALS patients, which is why we designed adaptive shirts for ALS to make dressing easier and more comfortable.
With features like side openings, magnetic closures, and tagless finishes, these adaptive tops shirts offer maximum comfort while allowing the wearer to maintain their dignity and independence.
Browse our selection of adaptive shirts for men and women, designed to meet the unique needs of individuals with ALS and their caregivers.
Why ALS Shirts Are A Must-Have For Patients
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. It causes muscle weakness, affecting movement, speech, and daily activities such as dressing.
According to the ALS Association, there is currently no known cure; however, support and adaptive tools can help improve daily life.
Here are the reasons why ALS shirts are more than just clothing—they're essential for daily living.
Reduce Dressing Strain & Fatigue
Side openings make dressing easier. They remove the need to lift arms or twist the body. This is particularly essential for individuals with limited mobility, such as older adults and those with ALS.
Options like relaxed-fit button-down shirts and open-shirt styles are made for comfort and simplicity. Pair these with a magnetic zipper jacket or explore more from our seniors' comfort clothing line.
Flat Seams & Tagless Cuts Prevent Skin Discomfort
ALS can make even soft clothing feel harsh. That is why Joe & Bella prioritize comfort with tag-free finishes, smooth interiors, and magnetic button closures that eliminate pressure points.
These adaptive pieces are gentle enough for sensitive skin and practical enough for everyday or hospital wear.
- Everyday Magnetic-Button Down – This shirt offers extra room and soft fabric. It is one of our top button-down shirts for those needing an easier way to dress.
- Everyday Magnetic Flannel – A brushed shirt from our easy button shirts for seniors collection that adds warmth without the itch.
- Signature Magnetic Zip-Up – A go-to piece from our adaptive jacket line, ideal for layering and limiting skin contact.
- Everyday Polo – This men's style is lightweight and part of our buttonless polo options for tag-free comfort.
- Buttonless Dress Shirt – A clean and irritation-free alternative for women who want a smooth, structured look without seams or tags. Explore it in our buttonless dress shirt selection.
Magnetic Closures = Quicker, Simpler Dressing
Magnetic closures in our ALS shirts offer a smarter way to get ready with less effort. They eliminate the need to grip tiny buttons, making life easier for both wearers and caregivers.
Here’s how magnetic closures make dressing easier.
- Shirts like our open-button shirt close with a gentle press, reducing the time and effort spent dressing.
- Styles such as no-tuck dress shirts help relieve hand fatigue for those with limited grip.
- With long-sleeve button-up shirts, users can dress more independently, even with limited hand strength.
- Open-front shirts and open-back shirts provide smoother options for caregivers.
- Classic button-down shirts feature magnetic fasteners, allowing users to stay stylish and comfortable without hassle.
Key Features of Joe & Bella’s ALS Shirts
When it comes to dressing, every detail counts. Joe & Bella’s shirts are specially crafted to meet the unique needs of individuals with ALS.
Magnetic Closures for Easy Dressing
Struggling with buttons is the last thing anyone with ALS needs. That is why our ALS shirts come with sewn-in magnetic closures that snap shut with a gentle press.
No pinching, pulling, or fiddling required.
They look just like traditional shirts but make dressing much easier, whether you're getting ready alone or with help.
They are one less thing to worry about and a smart way to restore comfort and confidence to daily routines.
Strategic Snap Features for Flexibility
For individuals with ALS, lifting arms or twisting the torso can become exhausting tasks. Shirts with snap openings at the shoulder, side, or back help remove those barriers.
This setup is ideal for dressing while seated or lying down, whether independently or with the assistance of a caregiver.
Here are a few styles that bring that flexibility to life.
- Try our snap-front blouses for easy-access dressing that still looks stylish.
- Our snap flannel shirts keep things cozy and simple on cooler days.
- Opt for snap-button shirts for women and men, offering functional options that seamlessly blend everyday style.
Soft, Sensitive-Skin Approved Fabrics
Our tops are crafted from breathable cotton blends. They are designed to feel soft against delicate skin and accommodate changes in muscle tone. These fabrics prevent irritation or overheating.
We offer similar comfort in our cerebral palsy shirts, MS shirts, and epilepsy shirt collections.
Tagless and Seam-Sensitive Construction
All our ALS shirts are tagless and designed with flat seams that lie smoothly against the skin.
This helps prevent chafing, pressure marks, and irritation, especially for individuals seated in wheelchairs or those who spend long hours resting in bed.
It is one less thing to worry about during an already challenging day.
Who Benefits from ALS Shirts?
ALS shirts are designed with real-life challenges in mind. Whether someone is dressing independently or with a caregiver, the right shirt can make a significant difference.
- Individuals with ALS in progressive weakness stages find great relief. As muscle weakness progresses, simple tasks become surprisingly difficult. These shirts are designed to work with you, not against you.
- Caregivers looking for gentle and efficient dressing solutions benefit immensely. Dressing someone else can be physically demanding and time-consuming. Our shirts make the process smoother, quicker, and much less strenuous for both the person being dressed and the caregiver.
- Anyone who values dignity, comfort, and minimal effort in their clothing choices. You do not need to have ALS to appreciate clothing that makes life simpler.
How to Choose the Right ALS Shirt
Picking out the perfect shirt might seem simple, but when you are dealing with ALS, every detail matters. The goal here is to maximize comfort and make getting dressed as easy as possible.
- Opening type – Choose the opening type that works best for your situation. Side openings are ideal for individuals who dress while seated, while back openings are beneficial when a caregiver assists with dressing.
- Closure type – Choose magnetic closures for minimal effort or Velcro for quick fastening, depending on dexterity.
- Fabric breathability – Select fabrics that keep you cool and comfortable. This is especially important for individuals with sensitive skin and those who experience varying temperatures.
- Size and fit – Choose a size and fit that allows for comfortable movement. Consider whether the shirt will be worn in a wheelchair or hospital bed to avoid bunching or pressure points.
