How do SmartKnit + SmartKnitKIDS products help autism?
Hypersensitivity
Hypersensitive people often feel irritated by rough clothing or tags and seams, and will seek out soft textures and fabrics. SmartKnit and SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Products are designed to address these sensitivities. Made with super soft and stretchy yarns and a completely seamless design, these products are the ultimate in comfort for sensitive adults and children.
Hyposensitivity
Hyposensitive people need additional sensory input. Weighted vests and lap pads help them to regulate their senses, but they are heavy, bulky, and hot. SmartKnitKIDS Seamless Compresso-T provides deep pressure input in a lightweight and comfortable compression shirt.
