The NFL has released a special collection of adaptive and assisted apparel for all 32 of its teams, featuring hoodies and T-shirts designed so that every fan can have the opportunity to support their favorite franchise.

Adaptive and assisted clothing is designed specifically for people with disabilities that make it difficult to dress independently, or those with sensory issues who may be sensitive to certain textures or materials. Assisted gear often has features like buttons up the back, so that caregivers can easily fasten the item after the wearer puts it on, while adaptive gear is designed with features like wider neck openings, zipper seams and magnetic fasteners to make it easier for fans with disabilities to dress themselves.

The NFL’s collection — available from Fanatics — features adaptive and assisted short- and long-sleeve T-shirts, adaptive pullover hoodies and assisted short-sleeve T-shirts for every team in the league.

Long-sleeve shirts are available in sizes small to 2XL and feature magnetic snaps at the shoulders to easily pull tops overhead while still resembling traditional seams. They’re 100% cotton jerseys that are fully machine washable for easy care.

The short-sleeve style features similar shoulder magnets.

Other NFL adaptive gear includes adaptive bungees and extended adaptive zippers for fans with a limited range of motion. The NFL adaptive pullover hoodies have a zipper at the left side seam that expands the bottom hem when dressing.

All of these items are officially licensed, and feature the same high-quality construction, materials and graphics found on other NFL products.

Fans can find the full NFL adaptive and assisted collection on Fanatics.com.
