What Not to Wear

Clinton and Stacey would shoot me for what I am about to say.  However, they have also never had to put an apparatus the size of a Buick through a sleeve. 

Let's talk about how to get dressed and what is easy to wear.  

1.  Wear short sleeves and big sleeves.  I have been living in baseball jerseys lately because I can get my arm through very easily.  They are also really easy to take off.  Big T-shirts are pretty good too, but can sometimes be tough to take off.  Be careful with sweatshirt style things as they are tough to get your arms through and the Velcro from your brace will tend to stick to the inside of the sweatshirt.  

2. Try to wear sandals.  Socks are ridiculously tough to get on your feet.  If you have to wear socks, you can get them on by sticking your hand inside the sock and splaying your fingers out. Once the sock is opened, you can usually wedge your foot inside.  It's tough though so try for sandals.  

3.  Avoid belts.  These are tough as well. Looping the belt through your loops can be difficult as can buckling the belt.  Remember you will have to buckle it several times a day so plan accordingly.
