Comfortable anxiety reducing children’s wear.
Anxiety reducing clothing for sensitive children and teenagers with developmental disorders.
Special designed clothes for children who are so sensitive that clothing itself can be perceived as problematic. The perception of body boundary in connection to the surroundings, can be very difficult for these children, and on top of that details in the clothing can seem bothersome.
The result is a comfortable set of clothing and a weight vest that seems calming, adapted to children who suffers from anxiety.
The outfit is designed without any noticeable inner seams and labels, and can be worn separately or under regular clothing. The material is viscose jersey which is soft, light and breathable.
The weight vest is made from two layers of neoprene, with weights between the layers. The material is smooth and without any bothersome outer and inner seams. The short fit makes it easy for the child to move around freely while enjoying the calming and anxiety reducing effects of the vest.
