At OT Warehouse we only engage with suppliers who provide quality sensory clothing that is made to last. Our sensory clothing range is designed to assist both men, women, boys and girls with sensory issues. Occupational therapists recommend the use of our clothing for many individuals with sensory processing disorder – input from the fabric and gentle pressure that the clothing gives can have a calming and soothing effect on one’s sensory system.
When boys and girls are calm and not feeling anxious, they are able to function at their best. Wearing our sensory clothing as clothing or undergarments can provide a solution for many people and allow them to overcome the challenges that certain clothing can give. External stitching in the clothing has wearers thinking there are no seams and stamped labels mean that there is no defensiveness toward tags or labels.

1. Sensory singlets

Sensory clothing for children at school with autism, adhd and sensory processing disorder
For many individuals with these disabilities, the feel of ordinary clothing on their skin can be overwhelming, resulting in melt downs or other undesirable behaviours. Problems can be exacerbated in various settings such as at school where a student may be asked to wear traditional uniforms that they really dislike. Sometimes it can be something simple like the feel of the inside of the logo of their school shirt that touches their skin, or the “feel” of the material that they don’t like. This can cause stress, break their concentration from everyday learning and result in them becoming more focussed on their clothing and rearranging it rather than the specific tasks on hand.
Our online clothing range features underwear, socks, pants, vests, leggings and shirts along with styles and items that include both sleeve and sleeveless features. The fabric gives sensory based compression and provides relief to individuals with sensitivities who may not like to touch the material found in everyday apparel.
Research diagnosis has found that when a person’s sensory needs are met it can reduce anxiety and assist them to focus and maintain attention. The treatments of Sensory compression clothing includes products that can reduce stress and help their learning at school.
Parents can also send their child to school knowing that our clothes will easily conceal under school uniforms and provide comfort by way of compression.
With sensory compression clothing you will not feel tags or seams, just a gentle pressure to the skin, similar to a hug, that will help your mind more to relax, focus for longer and improve daily function. Wearers will enjoy the input to the senses from the fabrics used which are high quality, breathable, moisture wicking and durable which keep the user cool and dry.
Proudly 100% Australian made and recommended by therapists for many individuals who crave sensory input.
