We believe in a world where mental health is prioritized and the hoodie is seen as a tool for comfort and healing. With our sensory hoodies, we will change the conversation around neurodivergence, mental health, healing, and wellness — and we need your support to do it. Our Story When our family dealt with the emotional, physical, and mental toll of the COVID pandemic and racialized injustice, while actively participating in local activism, community organizing, and protest movements, we grappled with the profound connection between the hoodie's history and the stereotypes that contributed to a broader systemic problem: the often-overlooked mental health challenges faced by marginalized communities. It was during this realization that our mission at Hood Sensory became clear. Hood Sensory is our endeavor to transform the hoodie into a source of solace through self-care, mindfulness, and comfort, particularly for the neurodivergent and those sensitive to sensory stimuli. Our uniquely designed hoodies provide sensory input, offering support to individuals dealing with anxiety and various mental health issues, enabling them to better manage stress and find comfort. Hood Sensory is a groundbreaking hoodie with four key sensory features: compression, fidget functionality, built-in ventilation, and weightedness. Compression: Our hoodie offers gentle and reassuring compression, cocooning individuals with sensory sensitivities in snug yet breathable fabric. What sets it apart is the real-time customization option, allowing wearers to control the level of comfort and pressure they desire. Fidget Functionality: Discreetly incorporated fidget elements provide a subtle tactile outlet, aiding in focus maintenance and stress alleviation. Just like the other features, the fidget functionality can be tailored to the wearer's preferences with various options available. Ventilation: Strategically placed ventilation zones ensure optimal breathability, preventing discomfort from overheating. This addition is invaluable for individuals sensitive to temperature fluctuations or who appreciate well-ventilated apparel. Weightedness: Seamlessly integrated weighted components strategically distribute deep pressure stimulation, promoting relaxation, anxiety reduction, and enhanced proprioception for improved body awareness and coordination. Different-sized weights can be added or removed effortlessly, offering personalized customization. Why We Need Your Help Your support will help us with production costs, and with your contribution, you can rest easy knowing that with each sale, we will contribute to organizations dedicated to promoting mental health and wellbeing in the Black and other underserved communities. Join us in rewriting the hoodie's narrative and making mental health a priority. With your help, we can start a fashion revolution that promotes healing, reduces stigma, and empowers our communities. Let's change the game, one hoodie at a time.
