Size guide

These are adapted EU sizes, not standard EU sizes. Please check the chart against your own measurements before ordering — and if anything is unclear, message us first. We reply within one business day.

Finding the right fit should be effortless. Our charts are built around body measurements, not garment sizes, so measure your waist, hips and thighs and match them to the tables below.

How to choose your size by body measurements

To find your ideal size you need three measurements.

Waist: measure around your natural waistline, usually the narrowest part of your torso.

Hips: measure around the fullest part of your hips, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.

Thighs: measure around the fullest part of one thigh.

A note on the waist: our trousers have an adjustable waist, so if the size fits your hips and thighs comfortably, the waist can differ by roughly 20% and still fit well.

Measuring while seated or lying down

Standing is not always possible, and you can measure just as accurately sitting in your chair or lying down.

Waist: if you are seated, lean slightly to one side to expose your natural waistline. Lying down, simply find your natural waist and measure around it.

Hips: pass the tape around the fullest part of your hips and bottom, keeping it as level as you can.

Thighs: measure around the fullest part of one thigh with the leg relaxed.

No measuring tape? Use a piece of string

A ribbon, rope or piece of string works just as well.

Wrap it comfortably around the area you are measuring while seated or lying down, mark the point where it overlaps, then lay it flat and measure the length with a ruler.

Compare with a garment you already own

For an even closer fit, measure a pair of trousers or a top that already fits you well.

Lay the item flat, measure the relevant dimensions such as inseam, waist width and hip width for trousers, or chest width and sleeve length for tops, then compare them with the garment measurements on the product page.

Our trousers have an adjustable waist, so if the hips and thighs fit, the waist can differ by around 20% and still fit well. Measuring while seated or lying down is fine — that is how most of our customers do it.

Description

Most trousers are designed for people who stand up. These are not.

The Vilber's Men's Wheelchair Softshell Trousers are built around the seated position from the ground up: the cut, the closures, the pocket placement, the waistband construction, and every seam decision reflects how a wheelchair user actually sits, moves, and lives. The result is a pair of trousers that fit correctly when seated, stay in place throughout the day, and look like a well-made pair of technical outdoor trousers.

Material

The fabric is a 3-ply softshell with a water resistance rating of 8,000 mm. The three layers - outer shell, membrane and inner fleece - are bonded together into a single unified material rather than sewn as separate layers, which gives the fabric its clean feel and structural stability. The outer surface repels water and is easy to wipe clean. The inner surface has a soft fleece texture that is comfortable directly against the skin and warm enough for cool outdoor conditions. The fabric contains 4% elastane, giving it enough stretch to move with the body without losing its shape. It is breathable and does not feel stiff or clinical. Composition: 96% polyester, 4% elastane.

Cut and fit

The trousers are cut in a 3D seated pattern, which means the proportions are calculated for a person who is sitting rather than standing. The back rises higher to keep the lower back covered at all times. The knee area is cut wider to accommodate the natural position of the legs when seated. The lower leg has additional volume to allow space for a leg-worn catheter bag holder, the kind that attaches around the leg with an elastic strap.

There is no central back seam. In standard trousers, sitting on a seam for extended periods causes discomfort and increases the risk of pressure sores. Removing it entirely is one of the most important things a wheelchair-specific garment can do, and it is a core part of how Vilber's trousers are constructed.

The waistband and the back panel are cut from a single continuous piece of fabric. This eliminates the weak point where a waistband typically separates from the trousers - a point that can fail under the lateral forces involved in assisted transfers. While this construction significantly reduces that risk, it should be noted that clothing should never be used as a transfer aid. Always use appropriate patient handling equipment when assisting with transfers.

Pocket

There is one inseam pocket on the right leg with a full internal pocket bag large enough for a phone, keys or other everyday items. It is positioned and sized for easy one-handed access while seated.

Closures and access

The trousers are designed to be put on and adjusted with limited hand and finger mobility. Every zip slider has a finger loop attached, so zips can be operated by hooking a finger rather than pinching, useful for anyone with reduced grip or dexterity. All closure points also have belt loop-style pulls positioned next to them, so the panels can be opened independently without needing to grip a small zip pull or button.

The front panel opens fully and wide via zips, giving complete access for dressing or personal care. The side closures are Velcro, holding the front panel in place on each side. The central waist closure uses a metal trouser hook with a neoprene bumper behind it, so no metal comes into contact with the skin.

Both side zips are two-way, meaning they can be opened from the bottom as well as the top. This allows catheter tubing to be routed out through the lower side opening if needed, in addition to the dedicated zip access at the inner lower leg seam. The inner lower leg zip provides direct access to the area where a leg-worn catheter bag sits, without needing to remove or fully open the trousers.

Design

Every functional detail in these trousers has been considered from an engineering standpoint, but the visual result is intentional: these look like a pair of well-designed technical outdoor trousers. The adaptive features are integrated rather than visible. There are no obvious medical references in the appearance. Wheelchair users deserve clothing that reflects their style, not their diagnosis.

Sizes

Available in XXS to 7XL.

Care

Machine wash at 30°C inside out. Do not use fabric softener — it damages the membrane and reduces water resistance over time. Do not tumble dry. Do not iron.

The trousers are shown on our articulated wooden display mannequin, which is 180 cm tall with size M proportions and fully poseable at all joints. This allows us to demonstrate the seated fit and functional details as accurately as possible.

Where we ship
All of Europe, including non-EU countries such as Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Serbia and Montenegro. Outside Europe we ship to the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Israel and South Africa.

We currently do not ship to Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, the rest of Asia, the rest of Africa or South America.

Duties and taxes
For the whole EU, Norway, the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand we pay the duties and taxes ourselves — your parcel arrives at your door with nothing extra to pay.

For all other destinations, customs duties and local taxes are payable by the buyer on arrival. For the United Kingdom, adaptive clothing is in principle VAT exempt, but there is no dedicated customs code for these products, so in practice the charge is usually collected at the border and has to be reclaimed from HMRC afterwards.

Dispatch and delivery
Orders are dispatched within 5 working days unless the product page states otherwise. Delivery time then depends on the destination country, the carrier and the delivery method you choose. In exceptional cases, such as pre-sale items, we reserve the right to dispatch within up to 45 calendar days, and we will always tell you beforehand.

We deliver with parcel lockers or courier services. Shipping costs are calculated at checkout, before you confirm the order.

Returns and exchanges
We do not provide return labels, and return shipping is paid by the buyer. If you would like a different size, we offer one free exchange per order. If you are unsure about sizing, fit or any detail of the product, contact us before ordering — we will help you choose the right option.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to receive my order?

Many of our products are in stock, others are made to order. In most cases we ship within 1 to 5 days. If demand is unusually high, which tends to happen after exhibitions, we let you know about any delay. The same applies to orders that include a length adjustment.

What are the shipping costs?

Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on your delivery address and selected shipping method. Orders can be delivered by courier or to an available parcel locker or collection point.

Can I return an item, and can you send me a return label?

You have two months from delivery to return an item. We set that period deliberately long, knowing how unpredictable daily life can be.

As a small workshop we cannot provide prepaid return labels, so returns are sent at your own cost. Once we receive and inspect the item we refund you within 3 business days. If you want to exchange for a different size, we cover sending the replacement once. Items made to your own measurements cannot be returned.

Is your clothing easy to wash and care for?

Yes, and we design for it deliberately. Even our multi-layer insulated pieces go through a regular washing machine cycle. Adaptive clothing should fit into your routine, not add another complicated step to it.

How does the front access panel work?

On garments with this feature the front panel drops down to give direct access for catheterisation without removing your trousers. From the outside it looks like an ordinary pocket, so the function stays private unless you choose to use it.

Customer reviews

Very well made items

Very well made items, thank you for the assistance with choosing a size based on measurements. The items all fit as we hoped and will be perfect for the cold weather we are moving to in Canada. Many thanks for providing such an accessible product!

Fantastic pants for wheelchair users - thank you

Fantastic pants for wheelchair users - thank you for the design & different options one can choose in these long pants!

A MUST-HAVE

I love them. They fit perfectly! The thigh or side pocket zipper should slide the opposite way so that when that pocket is closed, the loop is resting on the side and not on the top of the thigh which can result of a small pressure point if you have to carry or having something on your thigh for a long period. Otherwise they are great.
The customer services is absolutely perfect!!!
