[blparent] Braill Clothes for Blind Children and adults

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

Nice thought, I suppose.  But I'm not sure why it's important for blind 
children and adults to be singled out and have clothing made lovingly for 
them so they can have a sense of pride.  I don't get that.  We have a sense 
of pride in who we are because we are who we are, and that's it.  We can 
wear anything from polo shirts to couteur and still have that sense of 
pride.

I got this from the crew at Blind Bargains.

Braille Code Inc. is a company which has created a line of clothing
especially for blind and visually impaired people. Created by a mother
of a legally blind child, their lineup includes shirts and accessories
which feature a braille patch which aids in proper dressing and
matching of clothes. For instance, on polo shirts, the patch is on the
inside of the bottom of the back of the shirt. You can browse their
products from their website.
Here's some more information from the company's website. "Braille
Code is not just a clothing line; it’s a brand that represents
independence, self-confidence and pride. I want  the kids to wear the
brand and claim it because it was made lovingly for them. My wish is
for them to step out and let the world know that they now have a
clothing name especially made for them. My goal is to help and give
parents like me a way to give our children a sense of pride,
independence and acceptance of who they are with Style!"
