Inspiration
Paying Homage to Adaptive DIY Spirit
Before adaptive clothing was designed and produced commercially, the adaptive audience was modifying and building their own custom pieces. The sketch marks, used in the brand to highlight products and features, are meant to pay homage to the unique DIY culture.


Experience
Shopping Made Fun
Until a few years ago, adaptive clothing was designed and marketed solely based on function. Zappos Adaptive brings innovative products to market in an elevated, upbeat, fashion-editorial style, enhancing the browsing and shopping experience for those who previously relied on impersonal purchasing experiences or DIY items.


Colors
Accessibility is Key
The adaptive color palette has been selected specifically so that all small text and background color combinations pass WCAG 2.0 level AA requirements. Background colors can be paired with certain text colors in the palette to ensure legibility while accent elements can use a more flexible color palette.
