Fashion: inclusive and without barriers

Dear Sir or Madam,

Whether wheelchair users, prosthesis wearers or people without disabilities – fashion should meet as many different requirements and needs as possible. The designs of MOB Industries are intended to precisely do this. How do they want to achieve this? We asked founder Josefine Thom.

Have a nice week!
