Description

As the global population ages, the demand for specialized clothing becomes more significant. This book from the Woodhead Publishing Series in Textiles addresses a widely neglected area of design by focusing on the specific needs of active older adults. It explores how modern advancements in fibers, finishes, and integrated technology can be applied to improve the daily quality of life for this growing demographic. The text is divided into two comprehensive sections. The first part examines the experiences and attitudes of the active aging population regarding their clothing. It also reviews the specific barriers that prevent the adoption of new wearable technologies among older users. The second part shifts focus toward the practical requirements of this group, investigating how recent developments in textile engineering and design can be deployed to create better solutions. This resource provides a deep look into how textile science can meet the functional and lifestyle demands of an aging society.
