Tikkun Olam Makers has recently collaborated with UA’s Adapted Athletics Department to develop solutions for a UA student with a disability.
Michael Auprince had previous issues when wearing pants with his prosthetic leg, as the size discrepancy often led to awkward flapping in the wind and excess fabric getting caught and ruining the pants. To combat this issue, Jesse Park worked with Michael to design a shell with an inner portion that outlines the prosthetic leg and an outer portion that imitates the size and shape of his other leg.
