Why does snug clothing help some autistic people settle?

Even pressure across the skin and joints is easier to process than the shifting, unpredictable feel of loose fabric. A garment that hugs gives the body one steady message instead of dozens of small ones.

Clothing texture intolerance is common, and so is the opposite pattern of actively seeking pressure. Both sit under sensory processing differences, and both surface at the times of day when getting dressed or sitting still is already hard enough.

We stock compression tops in long and short sleeve, compression socks and gloves, and full-body sensory socks in sizes fitting heights from 89cm to 191cm. There is also a weighted tank top, a weighted lap bear, leg sandbags and a compression bed sheet. Some of our customers put the lap bear on a child's knees for the length of a car trip.
