Advice:
Clothes to wear over cast / brace?
Watch this 
View More Posts Ignore
I have a full leg brace and it kills to try to get clothes (underwear, shorts, pants) over it each day. Is there anything simple and easy out there? I just found this product on ebay and it should arrive in a couple of days, but I'm wondering if there are other products out there.

Does anyone else deal with this painful problem each day? Thanks!

" I have worn a Donjoy leg brace for the last 2 years. i know exactly what you mean about the agony of finding clothes. I wear shorts until it is too cold and then I have exactly 1 pair of jeans that fit over my brace. These jeans however really are to big foe me, but if I don't wear them then it is skirts or sweatpants. I don't really know of any place to get specialty clothes. i am sorry, but I just wanted to let you know that I feel your frustration. "

" I know exactly how frustrating it is just find the right pair of jeans or shorts to wear over a brace. I had to wear a cam boot for almost a year total (two surgeries for both feet) and both surgeries were in December. I never had the right pair of jeans to wear during the winter, so I had to wear athletic shorts for almost four or five months at a time.

I don't know how you deal with full leg brace but I certainly feel for you! "
