Slick Chicks is a patented[1] adaptive underwear that is designed to empower people with a disability or physical challenge. They feature hook-and-eye fasteners at the waistband, so anyone can seamlessly transition in and out of their clothing, regardless of their physical situation.[2]

History

In 2012, Mohammadian applied for a patent on 'Underwear with refastenable side attachments', the fastening technology used in Slick Chicks products.[3] The patent was granted on April 9, 2019.[1]

After two years of research, design, and testing, Slick Chicks came to market in 2014.[4]

By 2015, Slick Chicks launched an e-commerce site, selling their three styles: bikini brief, thong and boy short.[5] In August of that same year, Slick Chicks filed for a trademark. This trademark was granted in August 2017 for use in commerce, specifically lingerie.[6]

In June 2016, Slick Chicks launched on Kickstarter, seeking $15,000. The project was successfully funded and raised a total of $17,672.[7]

In June 2017, Mohammadian appeared on Steve Harvey's FUNDERDOME to pitch Slick Chicks to the studio audience. She won over the audience and the prize of $6,500.[8]

In April 2019, Slick Chicks founder Mohammadian was granted a patent for the undergarments.[1]
