The Story Behind Flare Fighters: How a Hoodie Evolved into the Ultimate Comfort Solution

When our daughter was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at the age of four, our lives changed. Between appointments, hospital visits/stays, and infusion days, we learned firsthand how something as simple as staying warm during treatment could make a world of difference. Cold rooms, itchy gowns, feeling exposed, and repeated IV access left her uncomfortable—and us feeling helpless.

That’s when Flare Fighters was born.

We designed our hoodies to be more than just clothing. They’re a tool of comfort and dignity. Each hoodie features discreet zippers for easy IV access, warm, high-quality soft fabric to keep patients cozy, and styles for both kids and adults. No more removing layers or dealing with chilly treatment rooms. Just warmth, functionality, and a little peace of mind.

Today, we’re proud to offer hoodies that help others like our daughter feel more at ease during care. Whether you’re a patient, a parent, or a caregiver—we see you, and we’re here for you. Thank you for joining us on this journey.
