As disability advocate Nina Tame [1] laments, "Disabled design is usually grey and medical." But there's an Irish brand hoping to change that by giving mobility aids a fashionable makeover. Created by two sisters, Ailbhe and Izzy Keane, Izzy Wheels [2] has reimagined the modern wheelchair to be personal, fresh, and a means of expression with colourful wheelchair wheel covers. The beautiful and fun covers come in a wide range of vibrant designs and sizes for both children and adults.
"Izzy Wheels empower wheelchair users to make a statement about themselves, it makes a person's wheelchair into a friendly object rather than something purely functional," writes Izzy Keane on the company website. "Having stylish wheels on your chair that match your outfit or show off your interests immediately addresses the chair and opens conversation."
The fashionable covers can be sized to your chair and are lightweight, waterproof, and scratch-resistant — so wear them without worry! Secure them onto your wheelchair's spokes using velcro straps, and enjoy their upbeat designs from world-famous artists and cool collabs with brands like Hello Kitty and Barbie. If you're interested in decking out your wheelchair in cool art, scan through a handful of our favourite wheelchair wheel covers ahead.
