Product Description

The Original Stretchy, Comfy Neoprene Vest Provides Weight and Compression

Our founder and occupational therapist Aviva couldn’t find a weighted compression vest for kids, so she designed her own. This vest was our first Fun and Function product and it’s still one of our top sellers. It’s like a reassuring hug, perfect for helping to calm down, focus or cope with sensory overload. The steady proprioceptive input and compression around the trunk are especially soothing for those with sensory challenges. Mesh sides for breathability and comfort. With stretchy neoprene for a snug, comfy fit, kids even ask to wear it.

  • Proprioceptive feedback helps to calm down, focus or cope with sensory overload
  • Hug-like compression encourages calm and feeling of security
  • Adjust compression on sides and shoulders with hook-and-loop closures
  • Supports kids and adults with ADHD, sensory integration disorder or autism
  • Made by Fun and Function
  • Ages 18 months - Adult
