Dear Mohit, I completely agree with the fact that the sense of touch for a vision impaired person has to be remarkable. In selecting clothes, I and my sister sometimes choose Salvar Kamizes of the same texture but of different colours. I still accurately identify mine by remembering for instance,

Mohit, it depends on your touch sences. I remember the texture of lets say, red colored shirt, or any shirtif it is told by anybuddy. There is no special rocket science in it. In my school days, my friends used to mix and match my school bag with other buddies. And some times with girls as well.
