Everything i could ever want and more. This is the coziest thing ever and i was able to wear it to work and it helps ease anxiety sooooo much!! I cannot recommend this jacket enough
I have depression and anxiety and was also recently diagnosed with autism at age 35. I've had an 18-lb weighted blanket for years and it's great, but obviously limited. I often tried to use it essentially as a Snuggie, so going for a weighted hoodie made sense. There aren't many options for hoodies that are actually weighted, but you don't really need to look any further than this, anyhow.
The weight is really, really nice and definitely chills me out. I appreciate that it doesn't have any obvious branding or anything else identifying it as a specialty product. I've been wearing it to work and no one has noticed. It IS a 10-lb hoodie, so keep that in mind if you intend to wear it out and about like I have been doing. It IS a bit of a work-out. Walking around in it and using your arms kind of feels like the first couple minutes getting out of a swimming pool. You'll especially feel it across your shoulders. I expect my traps and calves to benefit modestly in the background.
Quality is good. I particularly appreciate the chunky, high-quality zipper. Washing it was kind of a pain. I don't typically have patience for anything that can't go through the dryer. It didn't want to dry laid flat, it was too thick. I finally draped it over a chair in my back yard to dry in the sun and flipped it over after about an hour. I also haven't elected to hang it up and am not sure how it would do on a hanger - both for the integrity of the hanger and the chance that the hoodie might…
I can't believe how different I feel while wearing this. It's like noise cancelling headphones but for my nervous system.
i deal with pretty severe anxiety and panic attacks, for which i have gone on medical leave for multiple times throughout my life. weighted blankets help me so much, so i began wondering if there were any weighted hoodies/wearable items. found this via google! although a bit pricey it was definitely worth it. the hoodie is very soft inside and out, and seems durable. the weight is perfect for me, and the hood makes me feel extra safe/secure. it is a little bulky, but i mean, it's weighted, so that's probably tough to get around.
Excellent!
I got this hoodie for my smallish 11-year-old. She has been choosing to wear it, and using it as a tool. It looks cool enough that she is also wearing it to school. The material is very soft and luxurious. I appreciate that the price is a little bit lower for the kids size. This will definitely be a support that she can use throughout the years. She will be able to wear this for a few more years and then we will go up to adult sizes. The proprioceptive input it provides her really helps calm Her nervous system. I highly highly recommend.
