These are best described as a predictable weighted 'hug'.  Might look a little 'strange' in photos but we promise the support they provide is, for most, a game changer.  Gentle pressure though the shoulders and both back and front is incredibly 'comforting' to most.   Can be layered in multiples, to increase the weighted input.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the evolved version of othe original Chainmail Sensory Vest. Still hand-crafted. Still open, breathable, and flexible. Now longer, heavier, and significantly more versatile, based directly on community feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaking 4 days to craft, using high-grade stainless steel links, this piece is designed to drape rather than restrict. The open weave allows airflow and movement, keeping the body cool and regulated — unlike traditional weighted products that trap heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough it is called a vest, this is not a fixed garment. It is a modular weighted sensory support that can be worn, rotated, folded, or draped depending on the body and the moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany people describe the sensation as a predictable, gentle hug — not because it squeezes, but because it provides 360 sensory feedback without any surprises like human hugs can be!  For many hugs can be challenging as you don't know how hard the hug will be, how close the person will come into the hug and what other sensory challenges might also accompany the hug.   This chain maille vest provides a 'gentle hug' that is consistent and, for most incredibly comforting.  It provides gentle pressure \u0026amp; if worn on the skin, a cooling sensation.  We have even had people burst into tears when putting them on in response to the comfort it provides them.  Some do use them for D \u0026amp; D, cos play and other similar events.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gentle 'tinkling' sound, the scrunchy texture \u0026amp; cool to touch of the stainless steel make for an awesome fidget and sensory tool.   Drape over the shoulders, in the lap or lay it flat on a surface and using your fingers,  move in a range of directions to form mesmerising patterns \u0026amp; movement.  Great for wearing while at the computer or sitting watching TV.  Many use as an outer garment.   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView our entire range of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.brainspice.com.au\/collections\/vendors?q=KAIKO%20Fidgets\"\u003eKAIKO Fidgets\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"KAIKO Fidgets","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47357308207357,"sku":"KK-KAI-CMVE-0979","price":250.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/5549\/1146\/files\/ChainMailleSensoryVest01.jpg?v=1776005809","url":"https:\/\/www.brainspice.com.au\/products\/chain-maille-sensory-vest","provider":"Brain Spice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
