Description

The original Shoulder Shirt™

(PLEASE NOTE you will be transferred to our ShoulderShirts.com site when you click the “Buy Product” button and will be given many more choices in colors and fabrics on our direct site.)

We have been making shirts since 2008.  Shoulder Shirts™ were developed for my mother for her to have an easy way to dress independently after her shoulder surgery and she wanted something more fashionable than altered t-shirts that didn’t her fit well.  My mother found our hook and loop closures (velcro like) are the easiest way to be able to fasten your shirt with one hand. (Our custom made Shoulder Shirts™ are specifically designed so the hook and loop closures do not touch your skin and are not scratchy.)  She found snaps worked great in our designs where gravity held them in place on the sides of the shirts, but when on the shoulders, snaps were difficult to fasten with one hand.

This style of shirt has a round neckline and 3/4 sleeves that open at both shoulders and cuffs with hook and loop fasteners (Velcro like) for ease in dressing (or nursing). Each Shoulder Shirt comes with a ribbon designed to pull up the back shoulder into position for fastening the shirt. (See pictures for examples of how the shirts work.)

The shirts tend to run big to accommodate immobilizers and slings and I have included the approximate measurements. I do not recommend ordering the next size larger than your normally wear without checking our measurement/sizing chart first.

PLEASE SEE OUR SIZE CHART ABOVE. (Last picture here or light blue “See Size Chart” button next to SKU on main website.)

Perfect for recuperating in around the house or going to medical or physical therapy appointments. (PTs love our shirts with their easy access for treatment.) Breastfeeding moms also love the easy access for nursing.

About Shoulder Shirts

Shoulder Shirts™ help people with limited arm movement.

Shoulder Shirts™ got their beginning when my mother had rotator cuff surgery and I made her some shirts that released at the shoulders with hook and loop fasteners (velcro like). Her physical therapist was so impressed he requested that I make them to sell for his patients.

My mother taught me to sew and I have been sewing for over 30 years now. I received training from my friend and mentor, Josie, a professional seamstress from Malta. She taught me to visualize and to “think about it” when I was creating and sewing. These shirts are specifically designed and created with care and love.

All shirts are sewn individually by me or local seamstresses. (I have several local seamstresses that help me out and they have been a blessing as the need has increased for our shirts.)

We love creating something that will make your life better at a time when things seem overwhelming. We hope that your shirts will make things just a little bit easier in your life right now. Thank you and welcome to Shoulder Shirts™!!!
