I am so happy I purchased this vest for myself. While weighted it's not suffocating and provides comfort and security. I love the stickers and the little bag it comes in. It's beautiful and I get compliments when I wear this vest. I highly recommend buying this if you are on the fence. The sides are stretchy so sizing is gonna be comfy. Read more
I bought this vest to help calm my nervous system to prevent sensory or autistic overwhelm. I love it so much. I got a medium, which is a little snug over my belly (I'm 5'2" and 160 pounds) but zips up easily with the perfect amount of pressure against my body. I wish I had spent the extra money for the more neutral black color, but didn't want to risk more cash on an untested (by me) item. I'll also note that when I purchased this on Amazon, it was listed for ab out 40% less cost than the manufacturer's website for the exact same product. It's $20 less than MY price now at $119 for this raspberry color. The vest is effective-- at this weight, I notice an instant sense of relief as I put it on and then forget that I'm wearing it. This was a problem on my first full day with it, though. Like many folks with sensory processing differences, I also experience chronic pain and didn't think about the consequences of wearing several pounds around the house and then out trick-or-treating my daughter. After 4 hours of wear, my neck and shoulders suddenly seized on me 1/2 block away from my house at the end of our walk. Now, I try not to wear it for more than an hour at a time and pay attention to how sensitive my body is to exertion at that time. I've had no problems since then. It's very well made. The zippers are smooth, stitches are precise and the proportions are perfect. I definitely recommend this for folks who experience sensory issues or high anxiety. Read more
My daughter really likes it, but she has sensory issues and the collar interacts a little much, as well as the pockets material isn't sensory friendly. My wife is a seamstress and can alter it to work though. Read more
So comfortable. It fits great and the weight is evenly distributed. The color is even nicer in person. I wanted the black one but it was a little more. If you're looking to strengthen your bones and getting a little extra workout while doing chores this is it. I will also be wearing it at work like any other vest. Love it. Read more
