Wash Instructions

Turn your sweater inside out before washing. Machine wash with cold water. Hang to dry. Do not put sweater in dryer.

When wrinkled, it is okay to use a steamer. Do not use an iron on or near the braille beadwork. Like most sweaters, this fabric is likely to attract lint and hair. It is best practice to use a lint roller.

Design Process

The intricate braille beadwork is applied by hand with great care and precision. Our garments are created in a process called co-design where we work alongside a diverse team of sighted and non-sighted individuals consisting of braille readers, fashion stylists, and disability advocates. Each item is made in North America and is designed to initiate conversation about disability inclusion.

Accessible Packaging

Accessible packaging includes a large print or braille card describing visually elements of the product and how to wash it. We use a braille slate and stylus to add all of the braille by hand. An embossed version of the Aille Design logo is also on the card.

Sustainability

Products: Our high quality products are designed to endure a long lifespan and become a key part of your wardrobe. We also produce limited product quantities to help reduce waste.

Packaging: Our simulated braille tissue paper and branded stickers are eco-friendly and can be composted or recycled after use.

Hugged by a Cloud

This baggy styled sweater is everything I could have asked for and more. I normally wear a medium but the small was the perfect amount of baggy but still fit my arm length and the bottom landed exactly on my waist line. The interior is so soft i frankly never want to take it off. I love the contrast of the cream and the black beads. It's especially eye catching in a monochrome outfit.

Love it!

I am absolutely in love with my sweater! I got a cream cropped sweater with white beads, so the braille is subtle but still visible since the beads have just a bit of shine. The sweater itself is cozy and the perfect slightly oversized fit. Very happy with my purchase!
