The Original Weighted Compression Vest in Black

This vest was the first Fun and Function product. 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. With stretchy neoprene for a snug, comfy fit and the subtle black design, older kids even ask to wear it.
