The same as if I was Getty my leg into under pants. First thing I do is stretch the pull up. Then I dangle it down with my right hand and with my left hand move my left foot through the leg hole. Swap hands and do the same. It's not easy and if help is on hand so much the better but I can do it myself.

Well maybe I do. Look nothing is easy in our life but if you want to be independent you just find a way. Socks are worse for me but if I keep trying I get them on. Me and my friend who is also paraplegic go to a disabled swim group twice a week. They have a hoist to get us in and out. We are the most disabled two people in the group but we are the only two who go without a helper or care workers. We sort ourselves out shower and stuff and get ourselves fully dressed. It's not easy but we find a way. I am permanently catheterised my friend self caths. I go in the pool leg bag and all. What's that saying " where there's a will there's a way ". Give it a try with the pull ups vintage you might surprise yourself.
