Be sure to leave your coat tips and tricks for mobility aid users. This is (nearly) my entire coat collection that has been developed over many years! I feel investing in a good coat is better thank buying into fast fashion. They last longer, so better on the environment, and tend to be better quality so keep you warm, and dry.
I have more coats and jackets than you - and I hardly go anywhere! 😋 You can get winter jackets tjat have a lower hem at the back than in the front. Also, you can get jackets with warming packs that work off a battery. Also, that sleeveless jacket is called "a bodywarmer" in my 'hood... 😉 And WHY did we not see you in the "spesh" rain poncho?!?!? 🤦
I have found coats designed for horse riders the best for me as they are available in standard and long length but by both hips there are zips that you can unzip so that the coat sides split into a front and back piece and doesn’t bundle around your stomach, they are perfect for any position wether standing, parariding or sitting.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention your wheelguards tbh, I don’t have them on my chair yet and I think that’s the biggest issue I have with jackets and long shirts, as they all get tangled up in my wheels!!
I always wear longer coats and snowboarding jackets as it helps stopping that freezing draft on your lower back, which can leave you bone cold (that type of cold just can’t get warm from). I also add an extra layer of water proofing spray on coats/jackets to reinforce it. The worse part about getting stuck in the rain is that all the rain pools in your lap so it can look like you’ve wet yourself 🤦🏼♀️ You timed this post perfectly with yet another storm about to hit the uk👌🏻Have you any tips for keeping your hands clean and warm🤗🥰🤗check out www.kinetic-balance.com their rain deck is 👌🏻🤗🥰🤗
I have Erythromelalgia, also called "Man on Fire", so coats are the last thing I want to wear. I wear sleeveless shirts and shorts year round, plus I am fat so that keeps me pretty warm too. I do have a lightweight vest that I wear when it is icy out. I suppose if I were 40 pounds lighter I might need a coat.
I've always called the "gilet" a vest. Never heard the word gilet before, that's interesting.
Ariel Francis I call it a body-warmer.
My nan always calls it a gilet. Reminded me of the word "ballet" when I was younger
:)
Body warmer too
Here in the Netherlands we call a sleeveless coat a “body warmer”. 😁
I think we do too..... Shaun was like.... "it's a sleevless coat!"
Here in the us we call it a vest
Same Uk
UK its a body warmer . Well that's what we call them with no hood. Dose the hood give it a different name ?
Ive heard it in many names where im from but a body warmer is one of them
I am so glad you do videos on wheelchair fashion that able bodied people can understand. I was actually delighted yesterday because my aunt sent me a package and inside was a pair of joggers that don't ride up or down when you are seated, and they are so warm and comfy. I was so thankful! People have no idea how hard it is to find something that fits well and doesn't snag on wheelchair parts.
Hi Gem, I have only been a wheelchair user since last July, following a left, above knee amputation. I love watching your videos! I have a Regatta coat - it is weatherproof, has a hood, and an up-and down zip. It keeps me lovely and warm. (Oh! and it was marked down in the sale!)
Try rubbing a candle over the zipper once it's closed, it helps it slide easier when closing/opening. That's what my grandma did to my coats when I was a kid.
In Alaska, it's more function over form and style kind of goes out the window when you're trying not to freeze to death! However, I'm a coat junkie and have a few favorites. My favorite company is probably Columbia. They have this lining they called Omni Heat that looks sort of like foil, but what it does is reflect your body heat and keep it inside. This allows these jackets to be very thin. I used that as a base layer. I have pants/trousers that are for skiing and they zip up the sides (which makes them easier to get on and off), also made by Columbia. They are amazingly warm and keep my legs nice and toasty. When it's really cold out, I have a heavy Alaskan parka, which does have a fur ruff because almost all coats up here have one to keep arctic winds out of your face and still stay warm. It gets -40C or colder so true Alaska parkas are a must. I recently became aware of a company that makes coats specifically for wheelchair users. They are shorter in the front, longer in the back, and have sleeve guards to keep your sleeves from getting dirty while you're wheeling. The company is Kinetic Balance, which is in the Netherlands, and I can't wait to get a few of their things. I'll be all ready to go come next winter!
Canadian winters can be rather harsh too. I loved my parka for the frigid windchill days. Do you have any tips for gloves (warm yet still able to grip the handrims)? Also, how do you keep your sleeves clean?
As a wheelchair user i also get cold very easily. Double ended zips are great! You have given me a few ideas for my channel. Thanks
I love the thing you call a gilet, I call it a vest and my favourite are the warm down ones as they're great in the chill without making pushing any harder or getting in the way of the wheels. Great video, thanks!!
Ah yes. the sleevless jacket. Yeah thats a down filled one. they are so handy. :) glad you enjoyed it
Yes! I love the chaotic energy in this video!!!
Yes! It's fun. Go Gem.
I think the biggest take-away here is to have wheelguards so the bottom of whatever you’re wearing doesn’t get stuck in the wheels.
Thank you🌷 I have a love of loooong coats but now that I’m in a wheelchair I need to rethink a lot of my fashion choices. I appreciate your fashion and beauty videos💞
Glad you enjoyed it. Yes the long coats are quite a pain, and time consuming to get on. x
I use an umbrella as my carer pushes me. I use a soft picnic blanket with one fleece and one waterproof side for my legs. Much cheaper than a wheelchair blanket.
Great vid as per usual!
Fun fact: TK Maxx is called that in the UK and elsewhere to avoid confusion with TJ Hughes. :)
Woodford the Service Golden I feel those 2 aren’t similar enough to cause confusion though! 😊 are you in the USA or UK?
Rhiannon Rogers I concur but it’s the reason that TJ Maxx/TK Maxx gives on their website for why they named them different from country to country :)
I wonder if having two side zippers installed in addition to the front zipper would tone down the wrestling time.
Are there wheelchair clothes designers?
Hmmm not sure. Good idea. :)
I know Kinetic Balance is a wheelchair user clothing brand but expensive, so I use horse riding coats as they have side zips and both way front zips. (See my reply to Gem on her pinned comment)
I have one like this (they discontinued it). It has poppers in the back www.doversaddlery.com/nbl-dynamic-perfomance-parka/p/X1-400589/
Other than the blazer not being comfortable , I think it looked great on you! Also, the sleeveless coat, in the U.S.A i call that a vest.
Here a vest is a men's and children's underwear garment
Kinetic balance make great coats for wheelchair users, they even thought about us quads- expensive but everything for us is!
Life hack 2, they make a foldable arm that attaches to your chair and quickly grips the umbrella. Just make sure to properly size the umbrella and remember to take it down prior to moving through doors. :)
I have the same problems with my coats, it's so hard when you put it in when in a wheelchair and you spend ages trying to wrestle it and get comfy!
I just wanted to say! I love you so much! Every time I watch your videos which quite often I rewatch and binge, I just love your personality! *hugs*
Ahh thats so lovley, thank you so much for your support it means a lot. :)
Defenetly look fore coats or sleevles coats fore horse back riders. They always have dobbel zippers because they are made to sittning in with good movebillity and made to keep you warm!
As an industrial designer this video was so interesting! If you could have any feature in a coat, regardless of whether it exists already or not, what kind of features would you wish onto your ideal coat? What kind of solutions did you wish existed for rainwear?
TJ Maxx was founded in 1976 in Framingham, Massachusetts, United States of America . But the first international store was opened in Bristol ,UK in 1994. The
Company modified the name to TK Maxx to avoid confusion with the established British retail chain T. J. Hughes ( which is not affiliated with TJX) ... I hope this helps clear up the confusion.🇺🇸👩🏼🦽❤️
The sherpa I bought from Wal-mart is pretty cozy, and covers part of my lap as well.
I have a great weatherproof coat from Joules. It's long, has a removable hood, a detachable inner gilet AND a two way zip! I also have a waterproof BundleBean wheelchair cosy to keep my legs and feet warm and dry.
I love your dogs reactions.
I call it a bodywarmer xx
See, I love leather jackets. My problem is that the inner forearms rub against my armrests and hand rims, and so start to slowly shred over time. I once had a friend take my leather jacket home by mistake and, still not realizing it wasn’t his, saw that the sleeves were “all of a sudden worn out” and threw it away!
People around me call the gilet a hooded puffer vest. Gilet is so much more fun to say and shorter too.
I like the duel zip and the side press studs which the popular quilted coats have now.
I tend to buy a size bigger for comfort and for thin layers underneath.
Thank you for this video. It is summertime as I type this and I am awaiting delivery of my first wheelchair. I am fortunate enough to be able to stand for short periods but I had never considered many of the other concerns you touched on. I really never though about my leather jacket being restrictive. Yikes! Although it is a swing coat so it comes down to my upper thighs it is very heavy and stiff. Since I make many of my clothes I will be learning to adapt the fit as well. Please let me know if there is anything I should look out for in that regard. Thank you.
I was going to comment in your community tab where you recently asked about using the subtitles, that they're quite often wrong and mistake some words but no need anymore, the ones in this video are perfect! Thank you so much! 🥰
Hi I am a fan
Thank you :)
The biggest one
Gem I have just bought my wheelchair rim grips which I seen on your Vlogs, looking forward to them coming at the end of the month Rich 👨🏻🦽
If you would still like a biker type jacket/coat try something like a Gortex jacket. They are warm, wind and water proof, if it has armour in it (for when Shawn is riding the Harley and you're his pillion) which is removable. Also if you could do something on what to use to cover your legs with in bad weather that would be great. Like you say we all have our own specific needs, you being a paraplegic is different to my one goodish leg and an above knee amputation stump.
Keep well, stay safe, and my brother in law is a maintenance man in Hove. He has very reasonable prices, he also does a concierge service if required.
I have heated seats in my car that I use like a heating pad. It also heats quicker than the car. It works better the closer to my skin. I take my coat off and use it like a blanket for my legs and let the seat heat my back.
Also, and more importantly you need some fashion videos for everyone not just wheelchair users. This is an awesome video!!
Also I’m ex law enforcement and so was my husband and the warmest most functional
Coats are made for law enforcement. Lots of pockets and flexibility plus collars that flip up and protect your face
Thank you for your useful advise. I am looking for my disabled son.
Hey, if your zipper has a hole in it you can put a keyring through the hole that gives you something to put your finger through ...make it just a little easier.
You rock, girl! Great content. I can imagine you shooting this video alone in the house and being all hyper.
Right now I have O'Neill PW Wavelite Perform jacket. It's great - light to wear, but warm, windproof and waterproof. It's for snowboarding and skiing.
I like gilets and sleeveless coats, I hate anything that restricts my arms or is tight around my upper arms, I need a weatherproof jacket for when I use my crutches because of the inability to carry an umbrella issue. Do you ever use waterproof trousers if the weather is really bad?
Very helpful. Thank you.
I have got a really long waxed green coat with the Fryer Tuck cape on the shoulders. Country and shooting style.? Double ended and comes down to where my boots stop. Got it huge so I could have room etc. It even has a pleat in the back so the velcro can be opened for further room. Draw back with it being long best to get on before transfer or you will have a lot of jiggling the coat down. The sleeveless thing is a Geeeeeeelaaaaay in my part of England not a Gillet. But then ‘sachet’ most of my family, except for me say SaChet???? Love your vlogs. Our pickapacs are still going strong after 2 year.
The belt in the ski jacket is to hold the snow ❄ out if you fall when you are skiing 🎿 or snowboarding. And the arm thing is also so you don't get snow ❄ in. I love ❤ your videos. I think it's interesting to see what it's like to be in a wheelchair. Because I am not in a wheelchair. But I have scoliosis and dyslexia. So I know what I struggle with like I'm from Norway so it is difficult to right and speak in English. Ps. Sow if any of my sentences is wrong it's because of that.
Thanks for sharing all the great tips in your usual funny and lighthearted style. Very useful. As a new chair user, getting into a heavy winter coat involves moves that would confound a contortionist (it snows a LOT where I live.) You have a Barbour coat! Royal Warrant! Wheeew! Livin’ it up there M’Lady! (Seriously- really nice but super pricey here in US.)
BTW....if you want the world’s best, truly foul-weather raincoat, check out the coats by American manufacturer Simms. Nothing is getting through a Simms. Like Barbour, very pricey but worth it. One will last a lifetime. Cheers and keep your great vids coming please.
I LOVE the Australian accent x
I have ruined many, many coats as I don’t have enough eyesight to drive, so I have to push myself in my wheelchair to get anywhere.
I’m 5’ 2” so the coat sleeves are always to long, and they get destroyed from going too fast downhill while I’m self propelling.
My favourite coat just now is by ‘Jack Wolf skin’, it’s waterproof, and has the double zip, a great adjustable hood that cradles your head, and down insulation in the body part (which is the best thing for keeping toasty warm, but is useless when wet because it losers all it’s little air pockets). The insulation in the sleeves is synthetic and keeps on working to keep you warm if your sleeves get wet, as it doesn’t soak up the water the same, and so still has air pockets to keep you warm. (...and if you self propel on a wet floor or in the rain you’re going to get rising damp up your sleeves!). It waterproof, and covers your bum too! The sleeves have the double ‘powder snow’ cuffs and Velcro to fasten them around your wrists.
(Not sponsored, but I really love this coat, I’ve been through so many rubbish -and expensive- coats!)
... and to keep my legs warm,
... I use one of those cosy-toes, waterproof, fleece lined, half sleeping bag things. They look awful but are so warm and dry I don’t care anymore! (and instead of shoes you can put two pairs of your warmest, comfiest, fluffiest, bed socks on!)
I love your videos Gem, can you do some vlog-y ordinary day-in-the-life type ones?
You can get umbrella holders for wheelchairs as well.
I live in California and am so glad because I’m happy wearing only a fleece jacket or sweatshirt. The rare occasion when it rains I wear a light coat with a hood and I feel really confined and gross. Short waisted coats work best for me.
Thank you for this video. Most of your coats look great and comfy.
I love parkas style winter coats, or skiing coats or coats with wind stopper things in sleeves in general as it makes it easier to keep the coat sleeves out of the wheels when pushing. For me a coat has to have good sleeves that can be kept out of the wheels as much as possible, and the coat needs to allow me to move my arms freely and not be tight around the chest area. Coats are so difficult at times because I’m tall, have a wide bone structure and wide shoulders, so it’s all too common for me to find a coat that fits around me, but then has my arms feel like they’re in casts because of my broad shoulders. I can sometimes have a bit more luck with men’s coats as long as they look unisex.
Those first two jackets looked stunning on you 😍 Hearing the things you look for in coats makes me think that maybe horse riding coats would be worth looking into (not the fancy blazers but proper coats that you wear in the rain and stuff). I don't have a disability, but I do, do horse riding and I also get very cold very quick and I struggle to get warm afterwards. They can sometimes be pricy, and they aren't the most flattering shape wise, but a good horse riding coat is normalky hot, water proof, has a hood and a double zip, as well as some pretty decent pockets 😉 And arm movement isn't normally restricted because they're built for sport or mucking out.
Love your channel, im not disabled, but im just here to learn, i wanna be as respectful as i can as many people are in wheelchairs ♿
if you have any tips on how I can be more respectful please share ♡
I love hoodies and denim jackets (I'll layer them too) i struggle finding waterproof coats as most of them are no good with my sensory issues or wag too thick 😢
Thank you so much for this video. I’m definitely going to shop for the top and bottom zipper coats. I loved the bag coat.
The blazer looks like a riding blazer
Love this. Coats are just a nightmare.
I've my bestie coat. I get sad when spring comes along and I have wait for autumn to return. It has soft lush material on out side. Body part is thermal ribbed inside with soft fluffy material leading to arms. The arms are lined with the fluffy stuff. So is hood. And the added fluffy hood. Faux fur around hood.
Same cuff type you showed in one of your Coates. Cuff under the sleave. Brilliant.
Bonus. You zip it up. Get comfy. Both sides have 6inch zips. So you can pull coat down. For me its mid thigh. Get comfy with coat under mum. Then pull side zips down to fit neatly. No lower front zip though. I also have water/ proof fold away pink coat for rest of year.... Plus beloved fleece.
How do you cope with wheels leaving marks on sleeves?
I love this video. Really good tips in a really fun video.
I like gilets (I sound them out like you) in fact I have 3.
If I have a coat I like it to be non restrictive and generally I get them a size too big otherwise I can’t push myself, I get really hot and don’t zip them up so then the front pieces get caught up in my wheels and it’s all a big situation!. I really struggle to find one I like so I wear layers with a hoody and gilet on top.
Life hack, on the cheap side put a key ring holder on the zipper to make it easier to pull the zipper up.
Hi I've been looking for a suitable coat and still can't find anything to suit so I hope all the tips from your video will help make that desion. I'm minus spoons today so catching up with u tube. I love your energy you good fun and cheer people up on a odd day
I live in a cold climate and I generally hate wearing coats. I'm an occasional wheelchair user, and whether I'm in my chair or not, I prefer wearing a fleece pullover or something similar ...and then I just avoid spending too much time outside.😂
I'm from North American, so I call #3 a vest.
I have PU leather flight jackets. Not too long, not too short and it being PU (or fake leather) means it's much lighter, more subtle and more waterproof, the one I have is also quite warm so if you want a leather style jacket but not the weight and stiffness look into the PU style (*cough aliexpress cough*)
I further have a WWII style tanker jacket, which again not too long, not too short, has a wool liner but isn't waterproof, but a simple rain jacket for a couple of bucks solves that problem (living in the Netherlands a rain jacket is a standard item in the backpack)
For real winter I have a parka that has a detachable fleece jacket (I LOVE multipurpose items)
Over the legs I have a raincover from Reha design (look them up) but if it's really cold, rainy and/or windy (as the past weeks have been) I wear either a thermal or jogging trousers under snow trousers, add the parka, toque and gloves (someone really has to invent gloves that are warm, waterproof AND give grip) and am set
Bonus tip that I learned the hard way: wear a ball cap when it rains, it keeps the rain out of your eyes
Was helpful
I avoid wearing coats as much as I can because they’re just too big and bulky. I’m at home the majority of the time anyway. Unfortunately I am unable to transfer in and out of a car independently so again I choose not to wear them because it’s just more work for whoever is assisting me with transferring. It’s a shame because I have a really nice parka coat with toggle type fastenings lol.
Do you think a gilet would be a good option?
Wheelsnoheels - Gem Hubbard personally I don’t like them because my arms are always cold
@@stephaniemcquillan6167 I know what you mean. :)
Weight management is my problem. Which is why I ask disability RUclipsrs to create diet sheets.
1) What To Buy
2) What Not To Buy
People are weak and need instruction.
(UK)
Gilet’s a french word and you got the pronunciation right, pretty much
In America we call the sleeveless coat a puffer vest
This was SUCH a joy and delight to watch! SO much fun! I really enjoyed it. How do you feel about woolen coats, like the long woolen coats one might wear when one goes to church or dresses up (the ones below the knee)? Do those have enough mobility for you to move and little enough bulk not to get in the way?
Did you ever figure this out, I'm looking for something more feminine than anything shown here and more dressy, church included.
Do you know anyone who can give these tips for large ladies at all please ? I hate the plastic rain ponchos but it seems to be about all I can get that is waterproof
Hey Gem do you have the plans on how to make that rap and roll would really luv one thanks keep up the great work
Damn, your turnaround must be fast. Ciara and Dennis have barely passed.
Takeaways from this video... Get all the coats from family. Boobies. Don't restrict them. (Couldn't agree more). Hair hair hair. And in Canada our regular "snowboard" jackets are quite the novelty in England! You're so cute talking about how cold England is. -40 here. Celcius. Great video. Thanks Gem.
Glasgow, Scotland here and we're well known for wet weather, summer or winter. How do you keep your legs dry?
I also want to know this! Been looking for super long raincoats!
Hi, sorry if I'm being stupid but I know that a lot of Barbour jackets can have a good attached to them, you have to buy them separately, don't know if your one has the studs on the back of the collar to attach one,if it has studs you're laughing.
The gilet I have always called a body warmer lol
If you can, loop your top round your thumbs when you pop your arm in the sleeves so it doesnt get all squashed up inside. If you cant, you can use a paperclip attached to the top with an elastic band wrapped through the paperclip and round your thumb.
Also kintsugiclothing.com have a great gillet cape thing designed with wheelchair users in mind
You appeared to have a blast recording this video until... 1:22. What happened there?
13:49 Nice timing with the break in the music.
We always have any jacket for me shortened, because it's always too long for our taste.
Take A look on the site from Kinetec Balance the have great stuff
I say body warmer.
Oh dear the sound of that rain is so depressing
In America, we call sleeveless coats vest.
Black Leather Jacket!
It used to just be called a body warmer when I was a kid. I don’t know where the fancy names came from lol
I usually love to wear a wintersport/ski coat, as they are wind and water proof and nice and warm. Also if you have a little spare money, take a look at kinetic balance (it’s a dutch brand designed by and for wheelchair users, but they ship worldwide): www.kinetic-balance.com/ they have coats (but also pants, pullovers and more) specially designed for wheelchair users.. I love my leg warmer and rain deck from them and saving money for a coat and pants from them. It’s so much nicer (the coats have extra strength at the sleeves, as that part always gets dirty from the wheels and is breaking/tearing faster because of my wheels) and the pockets are at a really nice place even when guy are sitting all the time 😊
Because it is designed specially for wheelchair users, you don’t have the backing up/ruche at the front, but the back is longer so you won’t have a cold back.
We call a sleeveless coat a vest in the USA
THE SCHOOL 😂😂😂😂
Do you have any solutions to your sleeves getting dirty from the wheels
The word boobies makes me laugh for some reason.
I have a shorter pink fluffy coat as I can use umbrella (powerchair perks lol). I also have a wheelchair rain coat one for my legs which I wear and like a poncho which I rarely wear as it looks weird. lol I also have a shorter thin waterproof. I don't have energy for long coats too much effort. lol The thin waterproof folds up and i hang it off my chair with my umbrella. 👏🏻
Desperately need a new coat! Mine is impossible to wear done up sitting down!
Just need black Mac raincoat
We call them sleeveless coats body warmers 🤷♀️.
I hate being cold or wet so whether I’m in my chair or not I like to use my trespass or regatta costs which have removable fleece lining and heavy waterproof Rating with taped seams and wind proof if it’s really wet I have both ski trousers which keeps me warm and waterproof trousers hate hoods so I use a cap what I’m really struggling with is keeping my sleeves clean if I am self propelling any tips
Basically like your ski jacket
The dog is like all these coats and we aren’t going anywhere 😂
1st mistake the blazer. Well it’s not really a coat it’s a suit jacket.
I call mine a vest.
Hi whst brand is your ski coat?
All my coats were long. It's been 3 years and I still can't find a coat that doesn't ride up above my boobs when I push :( I find button ups help with the bulge around the middle as I can undo the bottom buttons but then I move and they instantly ride up. I also have broad shoulders so coats are always restrictive. I just have to wear a jumper and thermal long sleeve shirt and deal with the cold. Luckily it only gets to about -3°C here.
Just don’t go near Canada goose coats and jackets, such a cruel brand.
Try the site from kinetec balance the have great stuff
