Chestnut Street offers a new avenue to stylish, innovative clothing and products for seniors and friends

Seniors no longer settle for bingo and sweatpants. A new sensibility and the power of numbers are demanding more options. Thus, ChestnutStreet.com, based in Waltham, MA launched a new online source for unique, stylish clothing and innovative products to delight that discerning audience. Think Sharper Image meets AARP.

Consider some of the initial gems.
The men’s Magnaready dress shirt features hidden magnetic closures which ease dressing for those with limited mobility or dexterity.

The adaptable cape is one piece of 52" Diameter Polartec Classic 200 series. It is easy care, washer and dryer safe. No buttons, zippers, or snaps. Can be worn many different ways, whether seated or standing.

Nubrella is a hands-free, non-invertible umbrella, conveniently worn backpack-style. Open front for perfect vision and non-interfered communication. The new generation umbrella also features extended frontal coverage protecting you and smart devices.

The company was born out of necessity and frustration about products for her aging parent. Karen Osborn, a serial entrepreneur created the concept and resourced the novel range of products for attire, the kitchen, the bedroom, the home office, bathroom and dining room. Her colleague Kim McLeod, personal trainer who also spent time as a retail store owner, helped resource unique, yet practical items.

“We didn’t want our parents’ home, or our homes, to look like a hospital unit and a warehouse for unattractive necessities,” noted Obsorn. “We searched wide and far to find cool, colorful and creative clothing and products that gave our aging parents grace, fashion and fun. We offer a whole new dimension for seniors and their families that goes another level beyond the institutional choices of yesteryear.”
