KIT
POCKET HITS
Tracey Michelle, who has a degree in fashion and textiles, has created
a range of pump holders under the banner Pouch for All, after a friend
asked her to design something practical and comfortable for her daughter
to wearing and insulin pump. These are handcrafted pouches and cases
designed to brighten up the job of wearing diabetic tools, such as insulin
pumps, CGM readers, blood test kits and insulin pens. The pouches
are contemporary, bright, fashionable, practical and comfortable. The
pouches are designed to be 'stepped into'. In the range there are bra/
trouser belts and thigh pouches as well as the waist pouches. Coming
soon are pouches with a see-through window to enable viewing insulin
pumps and CGM screens so they can be read without needing to take it
out of the pouch.
