4. Transitional Adaptive Layering
Spring weather is volatile—freezing mornings often turn into humid afternoons. This fluctuation can be difficult for seniors, as aging bodies have a harder time regulating temperature. Target’s apparel brands like Goodfellow & Co (men) and A New Day (women) excel at affordable basics perfect for layering.
Instead of one heavy coat, stock up on:
- Zip-Up Cardigans & Fleece Vests: Zippers are easier to manage than small buttons for those with arthritis.
- Moisture-Wicking Base Layers: Often sold in the activewear section (All in Motion), these are excellent for keeping you dry and warm without overheating.
- Slip-On Walking Shoes: Look for Skechers or Target’s own brand slip-ons that require no bending to tie laces—a huge safety and comfort plus.
