Adaptive Friendly

Struggle to get in and out of your activewear? ILU Fitwear creates women’s activewear that ticks all the feminine, functional AND flattering boxes. We present our Adaptive Friendly pieces alongisde our Original designs, our pledge to create pieces that are by design or with modifications, easier to get on/off, in the hopes that women experiencing mobility/dexterity or other limitations will feel represented and designed for. After all, when facing physical disabilities, in most cases, more movement is always better than less, so having beautiful activewear that functions is our non-negotiable. We listen, we learn, we adapt, it’s about time activewear included the Adaptive community, and we are proud to be leading the way.

Care-fully made

ILU Fitwear is committed to testing, designing, and producing to the highest ethical standards, which makes this proudly Slow Fashion brand stand out amongst the noisy activewear market. Often using repurposed fabrics, creating small runs that generate buzz and wonderful customer feedback, ILU designs for women that care about the ‘why’, the ‘how’, and crucially, ‘who’ each piece is made for. 

The promise

ILU Fitwear’s pledge to become Inclusively Adaptive sees this set as the start of something pretty special, offering those with mobility/dexterity or disabilities activewear that functions AND flatters. By offering designs that are easier to get on/off, we encourages the buyer to embrace their feminine side without the wrestle that standard activewear and athleisure often carries.

The products

We adapted our best-selling Dream Spin Leggings to make a more accessible, easier- to-wear version. But we didn't stop at leggings, Adaptive styles are now available in SHORT form too!

ILU now offers an adaptive solution for women undergoing intensive treatment, The Starlight Sweat. In ILU’s signature feminine style, with handy adaptations to make your treatment process more cosy, beautiful, AND practical. Need constant arm/port access? This sweat has hidden features to prevent you needing the constant on/off wrestle of layers, including a double zip for full-length arm access, a wide open neck that both cocoons and opens up for ease of access.  

You can stay warm and cosy, in a fashion piece, not a medical gown. You stay yourself and feel yourself.  Keep shining bright, don’t let treatment dim your light. Shop The Starlight Sweat.
