With the allure of a great pair of jeans as its inspiration, the Game Changer Collection is the latest innovation from IZ Adaptive, the accessibility-centric brand launched by Toronto-based designer Izzy Camilleri over a decade ago. “It’s the most important work I’ve ever done,” Camilleri says of the designs, which feature a seamless, pocket-free back to prevent the onset of pressure sores that wheelchair users can develop from sitting on such detailing all day.
