Cover up that cast or injury with these clever costume ideas


Halloween is a great time to be creative and dress-up, for kids of all ages.  But, while injured, the patient may not want to draw attention to their injury.  So, we cleared away the cobwebs and came up with a few clever costume ideas to hide various injuries:

Walking Boot:  the obvious is Frankenstein!
Sling:  Mummify your body!
Arm Cast:  Get a large box and cover it in wrapping paper.  Cut holes out for legs and one arm (gotta’ hold the treat bag!) and neck/head.  Tape a bow on your head.  Voila! You’re a present!
Casts:  The traditional favorite, a ghost, draping a sheet over the whole body covers a multitude of sins!
Staples, Cuts, and Stitches:  Frankenstein works here, again, as does dressing up to be an “accident victim.”

We’d love to hear from you! Please share your idea here (or email to cs@castcoverz.com) and enter to win a VISA $50.00 gift card!  Ghoul Luck!

Feel better fashion for hand and wrist braces

Carpal tunnel syndrome, tendon pain, repetitive motion syndrome or any number of wrist and hand conditions are typically prescribed to wear a black hand or wrist brace.  Black may be the color of choice for formal affairs, but wearing it everyday to support a wrist injury or hand ailment gets old fast.  Coming to the rescue, CastCoverz! introduces Handz!, a fun fashion statement for covering hand and wrist braces.

Following your doctor’s orders and wearing the all-too common black brace, often times 24/7, can snag your clothes, scratch your desk or tabletop, and is unattractive and dreary.  Add how difficult it is to pull some clothes over that splint and it is no surprise why our newly introduced Handz! is fast becoming one of our best sellers.   

Handz! are shorter and narrower than Armz!, our flagship product for casted arms.  Have some fun…pick out an animal print or dots or even a solid!   If you have pain or discomfort, be sure to check with a doctor.  Click here for more information about hand and wrist injuries and conditions:   American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons hand/wrist ailments
