CareZips Trousers/Pants Granite, Medium

We bought a couple pairs of these for my mother in law who with Alzheimer's suffered incontinence and the caregivers raved about how they made changing the adult brief so much easier. We also appreciated the dignity of the process afforded by CareZips. These pants are truly a godsend for the elderly and the caregivers.

This is my second order of these pants for my father, so obviously I like them. I had them gift wrapped for him, but the card on the outside of the box was in such tiny type that he could not read it. It was a waste of print. Fortunately, I had another card, but if you are going to use micro type on the card, say so. If I was not there when he opened it, he would have no idea who sent it.

ProsFabric: The fabric was very light, which would be good for warmer weather and I expect would also be efficient for drying quickly.Design: The access for easier changing due to side zippers is definitely a plus.ConsDesign: Velcro would be better than snaps for folks who have less strength or dexterity.Sizing: The sizing is not even close to matching the website. I ordered a small;, which should fit ladies 8-10 or men 34-36" waist. These were much smaller than that at the waist. Based on what was sent - I suspect a large might fit this range, but I did not feel like experimenting.The concept is great - I just wish the sizing made sense.

These pants make a huge difference in being able to more effectively change an adult brief - whether one is sitting or laying down.
