Lorena Miguel - Hook it up

Hook it up

Getting dressed is something we do every day. We get dressed at the start of the day, we get undressed at the end of it and we do up the buttons on our trousers more than five times a day.

An operation, injury, illness or being less able due to age may make everyday actions that were so simple up to now require great effort or become an impediment.

Hook it up provides technical assistance in doing up buttons for people with reduced mobility in their arms.

It forms part of their social life and gives them independence and dignity when doing up their jeans, jacket or shirt.

It is an accessory, we carry it on us. It fastens to and becomes part of your clothing: pocket, collar, jacket, belt...

The polyurethane rubber inside means it will not slip and the resin gives it solidity. It comes in different colours, shapes and textures, in line with the taste, size and limitations of each individual, thereby becoming a unique piece.

Full text Hook it up means, “making it possible and getting connected.”
