He’s starting to walk and his confidence level went up very quickly once he started wearing this shirt. It’s not made of the greatest quality but I’m hoping it will last. I will purchase a second one to alternate for sure. Size chart is a little off. I first purchased the XS based on chest measurements but it was SO snug our skinny toddler complained and immediately wanted it off (he’s 16mo). I exchanged it for the size S, tried it on, he didn’t complain so I washed it (accidentally put it in the dryer (but at very low heat, luckily!) and it shrank a tiny bit but stretched back out - my bad - but it survived so yay!!) and he’s been wearing it since with no issues!! Our OT told us to start with 30min, 2X day. He’s a pretty calm dude overall but as with lots of toddlers, has his tantrum moments when he’s getting tired or hungry. We noticed that, as a bonus, he seemed calmer in high stress situations (bed time approaching/overtired, trip to the pediatrician) so it actually made me think of my dogs’ thundershirts! I wish I knew about this sooner, because it’s just a nice thing to have for inevitable stressful moments one will encounter at some point during toddlerhood. Review: Great alternative to a vest! - Was told by my toddlers ot to get a compression and/or weighted vest. I didn't think he needed the "weight". He is more of a "squeezes" kind of kid. He also doesn't like to wear clothes very often and I thought the bulk of a vest would make him not wear it. I found this and it is perfect for what I thought it would be! Think compression socks for diabetics or people with leg swelling/blood clots. Only in a tank top form. He LOVES it. Gives him "squeezes" just like he likes. It isn't too bulky and can be worn under his shirts. Was wondering during the summer in 90 degree weather and didn't make him hot or sweat so the material is breathable. Definitely measure your kiddo as the sizes start very small (thinking 1 year old?) And up. My small 2 year old fit the size I measured him for perfect. The neck fabric is a little bunchy, but probably to account for kiddos being shaped differently. It didn't bother him. His it is now recommending this product to kiddos in grade school that don't want to wear a vest in public. Do prepare for it being difficult to get on and off.... it's compression after all. But we encourage him that he'll get squeezes and he's gotten use to it! Great price for the quality and type of product. Beats buying a very expensive vest and running the risk of him not wearing it! More products like this need to be made. ## Features - HELP CHILDREN STAY FOCUSED & SECURE – Deep pressure input via 4-way stretch yarns helps to calm kids with autism, ADD, ADHD or other sensory processing differences who become overstimulated; feels like a soothing, gentle hug for sensory-seekers. - AVOID MELTDOWNS – Seamless, wrinkle-free, and free of tags and elastic bands to eliminate all points of irritation. High-tech fibers remove perspiration, keeping your child feeling cool and dry. - WEAR ANYWHERE – Lightweight, breathable, and looks like a regular sleeveless shirt with no bulky weights to limit mobility or balance. Wear at school to concentrate in the classroom, while traveling, at home or anywhere! - FIND THE RIGHT SIZE – This compression shirt is meant for babies. The best fit is found by measuring your child's chest circumference and following the size chart in the image carousel. Please note that compression shirts by design fit tighter than regular shirts; for a looser fit and less compression, choose a larger size. - QUALITY USA-MADE PRODUCT – SmartKnitKIDS Compresso-T is proudly made in the USA of the highest quality materials in our own manufacturing facility. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01NAWEBSA | | Age Range Description | Toddler | | Apparel Closure Type | Pull On | | Apparel Fabric Stretch | High Stretch | | Apparel Fabric Weight Class | Lightweight | | Apparel Occasion and Lifestyle | studious | | Back Style | T Back | | Best Sellers Rank | #80,404 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ( See Top 100 in Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry ) #6 in Girls' Undershirts, Tanks & Camisoles | | Brand Name | SmartKnitKIDS | | Care instructions | Machine Wash | | Closure type | Pull On | | Color | White | | Cuff Type | No Cuff | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 2,354 Reviews | | Embellishment Feature | Lightweight | | Fabric Stretchability | Stretchable | | Fabric Type | 97.3% Polyester, 2.7% Lycra | | Fabric type | 97.3% Polyester, 2.7% Lycra | | Fit Type | Classic Fit | | Fit to Size Sentiment | tight | | Garment Size Country | United States | | Hemline Form | Straight Hemline | | Import Designation | Made in the USA or Imported | | Item Length Description | Standard Length | | Manufacturer | SmartKnitKIDS | | Manufacturer Part Number | 51101 | | Material Type | Polyester | | Model Name | Tank | | Neck Style | Crew Neck | | Number of Items | 1 | | Occasion Type | school | | Origin | Made in the USA or Imported | | Pattern | Solid | | Product Care Instructions | Machine Wash | | Seasons | All | | Shirt Form Type | Tank Top | | Sleeve Length Description | Sleeveless | | Sleeve Type | Sleeveless | | Sport Type | Walking | | Style Name | Tank | | Style Number | SKKIDS-UNCT - 51101 | | UPC | 721734511012 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | character | sports | | collar-type | Collarless | | top-style | Camisole | ## Images ![Compresso-T Deep Pressure Sensory Compression Undershirt - Alternative to Vest - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71UOnAzPVWL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What size would i need for my 10 yr old?** A: My son is five years old and weights 45lbs He is tall for his age I had to buy a small So it’s depends how much We weights You want it to be a little tight!!!!! And here a little tip watch he don’t get over heated because then he will not want to wear it So like after school take it off and let him cool down take a shower or bath or go in a pool Good luck **Q: Has the fabric changed since 2019?** A: I don’t believe so. The fabric holds up very well, not seeming to lose its shape or get stretched out. **Q: Will this help hold in kid boobs on a boy. He’s a bit self conscious with gain of weight from covid** A: It does make the chest appear a bit smaller. It's more of a compression for kids who needs the feeling of a hug or tightness on their torso. **Q: When measuring an infant whose belly is larger than her chest, should I go by the circumference of the largest part of her belly the nipple line?** A: We would still recommend measuring the chest circumference and using the size that corresponds with that measurement. The shirts are made from stretchy material and should still fit. Also, they are meant to fit snuggly. However, if you find that the shirt size that you choose does not fit properly, please exchange it for a bigger size. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very expensive but it does seem to help. *by B***. on July 12, 2020* We have a preemie with mild hypotonia and our PT recommended this shirt to help our little dude develop proprioception.

The shoulders do stick up a bit as mentioned in other reviews. To me, that seems to be by design, and I don't think changing the sizing would still get the right amount of compression. The shirt is still fairly unnoticeable under polo shirts and other thicker shirts, although you might see a bit of the outline of the undershirt. The material is thicker than a t-shirt, but is OK for a short time outside without being too hot. My son wore this shirt daily for his first week of Kindergarten and felt like it gave him a calming hug all day long, so I bought a second one to rotate. Now, he is not chosing to wear it daily but chooses to wear it when he feels like it. ## Frequently Bought Together - SmartKnitKIDS Compresso-T Deep Pressure Sensory Compression Undershirt - Alternative to Vest - HOSUKKO Weighted Blanket - Weighted Blanket 5 lbs Blue Dinosaur Heavy Blanket - Breathable Blanket(36 * 48 inches, 5 lbs) - Special Supplies Sensory Brush Therapressure Therapy Brush for Occupational and Sensory Brushing, Stimulating, Calming Tools for Kids and Adults, Soft Flexible Bristles, Latex Free (Colored 6-Pack) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/48659765-compresso-t-deep-pressure-sensory-compression-undershirt-alternative-to-vest](https://www.desertcart.at/products/48659765-compresso-t-deep-pressure-sensory-compression-undershirt-alternative-to-vest) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-09-20*
