The BlindAid Jacket 
charity collaboration

The unique design approach of wecanfly sees us partner with charities, the first being BlindAid UK. We ran a focus group to learn about their experiences with clothing to discover what functions would create an inclusive garment to fit their needs. The findings gave the problems which we looked to solve in the design. The outcome was the world’s first fully magnetic jacket/trouser set accessible to those with visual impairments.

Key components of the designs were. Dual fastenings/openings, Instructions through touch and added safety features with card transaction-blocking fabric lining the pockets.
