Early Steps of SW Fl provides a variety of services for children from birth to three with developmental delays. As Occupational therapists we love to use the Junior Weighted Cool Vest to help some our children improve their ability to sit and focus on one interactive or exploratory play activity as well as engage in other daily routines like mealtime. We love that its mesh fabric breathes well as works even in our hot climate! (Professional Therapist) ????? \"Your new weighted vest is the answer to a therapists' dreams! We love the design and the option of having either a front or back closure. The wide strap allows for secure closure while allowing for significant size adjustment. The fabric contours to the child's body for a nice fit and it does not shift or bounce around when the child is engaged in activity. Having the option of either 1\/4 lb or 1\/2 lb weights is another great feature for customizing according to different students needs. The \"cool\" factor is very high with this vest both in it's appearance and in keeping the child comfortable during wear. We have put race car logos in the \"window\" pockets for our little guy and he thinks they're great.\" (Professional Therapist) Jr. Cool Vest™ (Child’s weighted vest) .5 to 12 lb. Weighted Vest (Supplied at 6 lbs. with 11- 1\/2lb weights) Jr. Cool Vest™ is IRONWEAR’s ™ new patented weighted vest designed exclusively for children. The Jr. Cool Vest™ was created to make wearing a weighted vest more fun, comfortable and effective. *The Jr. Cool Vest™ is shown with the belts in front and back on a 4 year old and his 10 year old brother who weighs 100lbs. The 10 year old can wear a regular cool, club, or speed vest also. Jr. Cool Vest™ is part of IRONWEAR’s ™ Cool Vest Line™, so in addition to the Jr. Cool Vest™ there are matching adult Cool Vests™. This makes it possible for both the child and the caregiver to wear the same style vest. By wearing matching vests the child may have an easier time accepting the weighted vest. A caregiver who wears a weighted vest also increases their understanding of the effects of wearing weights. As a side benefit the caregiver can use their weighted vest to improve their own physical condition. Jr. Cool Vest’s™ unique design contours to the shape of a child’s body, allows air to flow through it to keep the child comfortable, expands to support a wide range of sizes to grow with the child, is safer for the child and others, and is packed with features to make wearing the Jr. Cool Vest™ fun. Jr. Cool Vest™ contours to the shape of the child’s body and bends with their every move. The Jr. Cool Vest™ incorporates all the latest patented IRONWEAR™ form fitting features. The ultra thin Contour-fit™ design conforms to the curves of the back, front and sides. The patented soft Flex-metal™ weights bend easily to constantly match the movements of the body. Jr. Cool Vest™ allows air to flow through, to help keep the child comfortable. The Jr. Cool Vest™ is constructed of soft athletic mesh that is durable and easy to clean. The design helps to keep the child from overheating. Jr. Cool Vest™ expands easily to accommodate a wide range of sizes. The Jr. Cool Vest™ adjusts easily to fit most children between 2 and 9 years of age, weighing less than 100 pounds. The unique design allows the Jr. Cool Vest™ to fit the child’s growing body well for years, so you do not need to buy new vests as the child grows or to buy multiple vest sizes to fit different children. Jr. Cool Vest™ unique shoulder design keeps the vest in position comfortably. The Jr. Cool Vest™ has a zipper opening that allows the vest to slide over the child’s head and positions the vest properly on the child’s shoulders. The wide padded shoulder straps spread out the load to make carrying weight easier and less noticeable to the child. Jr. Cool Vest™ helps to support the child’s abdominal and back muscles. The Jr. Cool Vest™ incorporates IRONWEAR’s™ patented full waist support system. Two patented over-sized stretch belts snug the vest to the child’s body while not inhibiting their breathing or movements. Jr. Cool Vest™ Contour-fit™ design is ultra thin and snug so that the vest will not interfere with the movement of the child’s body. The padded shoulders provide maximum flexibility, support and comfort. The Contour-fit™system makes it possible for the child to raise their arms completely, which means the vest can be used for all activities and play. The Jr. Cool Vest’s™ thin design can also be worn easily over or under clothing. Jr. Cool Vest™ Double-lock™ belting system locks both the ends of the belts and the edges of the vest to prevent the vest from shifting during even the most rigorous play. The patented overlapping stretch belts hold the vest securely to almost any size child’s torso. The Jr. Cool Vest™ fits waist and chest sizes from 15 to over 30 inches. (Children with larger chest and waist sizes can wear the regular Cool Vest™.) Jr. Cool Vest™ is easy to clean. The Jr. Cool Vest™ can be hand washed with the weights inside or machine washed with the weights removed. The porous design also allows the vest to dry quickly. Jr. Cool Vest’s™ Stretch-fit™inner pockets hold the weights securely on all sides and keep them from shifting. The inner pocket design makes it impossible for the weights to come loose while you exercise. Because no hardware or Velcro is used to hold the weights in place, the vest is safer, longer lasting, thinner and more flexible. Jr. Cool Vest™ accepts IRONWEAR’s™ patented Flex-metal™ weights which are the safest, most comfortable and best fitting weights possible. The weights are thin and flexible and contour to the shape of the child. In case of a fall the interchangeable weights act as padding to protect the child and those around them. Jr. Cool Vest™ has 11 weight pockets to uniformly distribute the weight over the child’s torso. Each weight pocket will accept one or two ½ pound soft Flex-metal™ weights, or up to four ¼ pound soft Flex-metal™ weights. The vest is available as a shell or with ¼ or ½ pound weights. Vests supplied with weights have one weight per pocket. The vest shell itself weights approximately .5 pounds. The vest can be adjusted from .5 to 12 pounds by adding Flex-metal™ weights. Jr. Cool Vest™ is supplied at approximately 6 pounds with a single layer of ½ pound Flex-metal™ weights, but can be adjusted from .5 pound up to 12 pounds by removing or adding additional Flex-metal™ weights. Jr. Cool Vest™ can be worn with the belts secured in the front so the child can put the vest on or take it off. Also the vest can be worn with the belts secured in the back to restrict removal by the child. Jr. Cool Vest™ patented accessory system has many unique features. The vest includes intergrated loop fasteners on the front and back onto which many things can be attached. The vest is supplied with 5 window holders for personalizing the vest. You can put in the child’s name, their favorite color, logo of their favorite super hero, or their own artwork in the holders that can be positioned all over the vest. Jr. Cool Vest™ is set up to be fun with all kind of play accessories. You can make your own and Velcro them on or consider the different cape and hood accessories that we offer. These accessories pull off easily to help keep the child safe and excited about wearing their vest. \"I wanted to let you know that of the two waist\/ankle belt models you sent, the smallest one worked the best for Ben. Right now the vest is working so well, that we have not needed to use the ankle weights. But, I am happy to have them for an option when he wants a change. They are sooo much better than the ankle weights I can pick up locally! Have you received many orders from Colorado lately? I showed the vest to my son's therapists and teachers at school and they all loved it. I have seen a few kids at school and the OT office with new vests...

In my school-based practice I've used your small size with learners from our Early Childhood program all the way up to students in middle school. I've had success with children who have sensory issues and struggle with body awareness or grasp strength when working against resistance for functional manipulation such as zipping, grasping\/pushing on a pencil. After one recent trial, a student significantly affected by autism actually reached to retrieve the weights as they were being removed. He loves them! After adding the hand weights he has gone from letting any item placed in his hands just fall to the floor, to maintaining grasp while being pulled on a scooter board, carrying his own picture schedule notebook, and pulling a wagon full of books to the library. A kindergarten girl with hand tremors wears the weights gladly for table top tasks and is so proud of her improved writing, cutting, and coloring projects.

You get a belt that separates easily into two ankle weights. No other system offers you the flexibility of the Jr. Iron Belt™. Jr. Iron Belt’s™ unique weighted belt design allows your child to carry additional weight without inhibiting the child’s movements. The Jr. Iron Belt™ puts the weight in a comfortable location on the child’s hips and does not apply any restrictions to the child’s upper body. The front and back are open to keep pressure off the child’s abdomen and spine. Jr. Iron Belt’s™ unique weighted belt design can also be put on or taken off easily. The design quickly adjusts to fit children between the ages of 2 and 10 years of age with waist sizes from 18 to 40 inches. Jr. Iron Belt’s™ design has two sections, each section has four patented stretch pockets and each pocket can accept two ½ lb. or four ¼ lb. Flex-Metal™ weights. Each section can be adjusted from ½ to 4 pounds by adding or removing weights. With the two sections connected together as a belt and all the weights inserted the belt weighs 8 lbs. Separated into two ankle weights, each ankle weight can be adjusted from ½ to 4 lbs. Jr. Iron Belt’s™ unique ankle weight design fit snugly around any child’s ankle. The Jr. Iron Belt™ when set up as ankle weights adds resistance the child’s leg movements. Jr. Iron Belt’s™ thin Flex-metal™ weights are the safest weights that exist for children. The soft Flex-metal™ weights flex with your child’s movements and contour to the shape of your child’s body. The soft weights stays in place without creating localized pressure points. Jr. Iron Belt’s™ Flex-metal™ weights do not move around. They will not fall apart, shake, sag, or spill out like sand and shot filled weights. The soft Flex-metal™ weights will not chafe or bruise like weights made with metal bars. Jr. Iron Belt’s™ Flex-metal™ weights are non-toxic. The patented weights are made with atomized iron, baby oil and a rubber which is often used to make nipples for baby bottles. In case of a fall the interchangeable soft weights act as padding to protect your child and those around them. Jr. Iron Belt’s™ outer surface is soft, durable and washable. The strong knitted nylon fabric is laminated to a neoprene rubber, is the same durable fabric used on scuba driver’s suits. The Jr. Iron Belt™ will expand to fit you child as your child grows and the durable materials should allow the Jr. Iron Belt™ to be used for years. Jr. Iron Belt’s™ Stretch-fit™inner pockets hold the weights securely on all sides and keep them from shifting. The inner pocket design makes it impossible for the weights to come loose while your child plays.

The New Jr. Speed Suit™ Complete is the ultimate training tool developed to help athletes run faster, jump higher, and play longer. The New Jr. Speed Suit™ Complete is the ultimate training tool developed to last for years of training and is able to continue to help athletes reach their next performance level. Each part of the Jr. Speed Suit™ Complete is fully weight adjustable so that the athlete can start with a low amount of weight and slowly move up as their strength, speed, and endurance increases. The size of the Jr. Speed Suit™ is fully adjustable and will continue to fit the athlete as they grow. The Jr. Speed Suit™ adjusts easily to fit athletes from just under 100 pounds to over 250 pounds. The Jr. Speed Suit™ is extremely thin and flexible and can be worn on top or under most clothing or sweats so it is good for training in all seasons. The mesh allows air to flow through the vest to help keep the athlete cooler so they can workout harder. The Jr. Speed Suit™ allows the desired weight to be evenly distributed over the athlete's body without interfering with their movements. The shells and weights themselves conform to the body and bend with the athlete as they move so the vest stays in place during rigorous exercise. Each individual stretch opening weight pocket on the Jr. Speed Suit™ is designed to hold one weight snuggly on all sides to prevent movement of the weights inside the shell. The stretch opening weight pockets are located on the inside to keep the weight secure without any extra hardware or stiff velcro. Soft mesh material can be used for the shells because all the Flex-metal® weights are soft and have fully rounded corners so they will not damage the fabric. (solid metal or shot weight would wear and eventually cause the fabric to fail.) The Jr. Speed Suit™ has IRONWEAR®'s padded proprietary oversized stretch strapping system and double lock belts. The system stretches to allow the athlete to breath and move properly while the double lock locks all the edges of the shells and holds all parts of the vest and lands from moving against the athlete's body. The Jr. Speed Suit™ is easy to maintain and can be hosed off, hand washed, or machine washed with the weights removed. After washing the Jr. Speed Suit™ should be air dried, the shells porous design allows them to dry very quickly. The Jr. Speed Suit™ includes IRONWEAR®'s Jr. Speed Vest™ adjustable from 1 to 9 pounds, the vest vest for all types of young athletes. The Jr. Speed Vest™ is designed for all types of intense training including running and jumping without interfering with upper body or arm movement. The unique thin padded shoulder strap allows for complete range of motion and are great for playing basketball or volleyball. The Jr. Speed Vest™ fits slimmer torsos than the standard Speed Vest™ but still adjusts over a wide range from 17 to 50 inches. The Jr. Speed Vest™ becomes one with an athletes torso and move with the athlete to provide resistance wanted wanted without unwanted shifting or interference. The Jr. Speed Suit™ Complete includes another IRONWEAR® creation. The Speed Pants™ are designed for use on the track or field for increasing leg strength, endurance, and foot speed. The Speed Pants™ are adjustable from 1 to 9 pounds with IRONWEAR®'s inner stretch opening pockets. The Speed Pants™ help to build explosive legs. The shell and the Flex-metal® weights conform to the shape of the athlete's thighs and waist without interfering with the athlete's motion. The Speed Pants™ are designed with an open center to help keep the athlete cool by allowing air to flow between the athlete's legs. The Speed Pants™ have multiple adjustments to adjust the position of the weights on the athlete's thighs and to adjust the tension on the thighs. Thigh pressure can be adjusted quickly without removing the Speed Pants™ or released completely to give your legs a rest. The double locking belts hold all the edges of the Speed Pants™ in place no matter how the athlete moves or kicks. The Speed Pant™'s large hole black mesh design does not show dirt, breathes, and is easy to clean. The Speed Pants™ fit a wide range of waist sizes from 22 inches to over 50 inches and can be easily worn over short or long pants. The thin design fits easily under most sweats and is an ideal tool for any athlete in any season. The Jr. Speed Suit™ Complete includes IRONWEAR®'s proprietary new Speed Shoe Irons™ developed over years of training olympic sprinters. The new Speed Shoe Irons™ includes both a removable\/replaceable sole strap system and an adjustable heel strap for extra security for sprinting. IRONWEAR® created the Speed Shoe Irons™ to go overtop the athlete's shoes to provide resistance without interfering with the athlete's motion. The New Speed Shoe Irons™ are designed to improve foot speed, increase step height, and leg strength. IRONWEAR®'s proprietary design positions the weights evenly over the top of the foot just above the ball of the athlete's foot. The system locks around the heel and under the arch to prevent any movement. Unlike ankle weights which move up and down on the ankle as you run, there is no sliding or jarring action with the New Speed Shoe Irons™. Because the weight is situated above the ball of the foot the weights and the foot impact the ground at the same time. The New Speed Shoe Irons™ have a bottom strap that is removable so that when it becomes worn it can easily be replaced. The multiple adjustments allow the new Speed Shoe Irons™ to fit a wide range of athletic shoe sizes and designs from a women's size 5 to a men's size 15.

The 10 year old can wear a regular cool, club, or speed vest also. Jr. Cool Vest™ is part of IRONWEAR’s ™ Cool Vest Line™, so in addition to the Jr. Cool Vest™ there are matching adult Cool Vests™. This makes it possible for both the child and the caregiver to wear the same style vest. By wearing matching vests the child may have an easier time accepting the weighted vest.

IRONWEAR® was the first company to create weighted vests for children and IRONWEAR® has continued improving weighted vests for children for the past 20 years. The Jr. Harvard Vest™ is the latest IRONWEAR® design and is available in a number of variations to address different special needs. (If you do not see the features you need in an IRONWEAR® product please let us know, our website only shows a fraction of the products we make). The Jr. Harvard Vest™ is designed to make wearing a weighted conditioning vest as safe, comfortable, and simple as possible. Every aspect of the Jr. Harvard Vest™ makes it the safest and most comfortable weighted conditioning vest for children. First are the Flex-metal® weights which are the softest and most flexible weights made. The weights act as padding and will protect the child and things and others around them. Second is the vest construction which is ultra thin, breathable, and soft. Because the pockets which hold the 1\/4 and 1\/2 lb. weights are spread uniformly over the whole vest, the load can be uniformly distributed with minimal thickness. Two thicknesses of weights are available with 1\/2 pound soft Flex-metal® weights the thickness is 1\/2 inch and with 1\/4 pound weights the thickness of the vest is only 1\/4 inch. Not only are these weights thin but they are so very soft and flexible so they can go unnoticed by the child wearing them. To help keep the child cool the whole surface of the vest is constructed of soft knitted large open cell athletic mesh. The mesh allows air to flow easily through the vest, between the weights, and between the vest and the child's body. This makes the vest usable in all seasons, indoors or outdoors. the breathability of the vest and its thin sheer design makes it easy to wear under or overtop most clothing. The vest is extremely soft everywhere, besides the soft Flex-metal® weights the shoulders are padded with a soft foam laminate, the bests are padded and even the edges of the vest are padded with a soft stretch binding. Third the design and tailoring of the vest make it very simple to fit perfectly and adjust the weight amount easily, and put it on and off quickly. When fitting the vest the first time, just unzip it and put it on the child, then with it unzipped release the overlapping torso belts in the back (make sure to release both the end of the belt velcro and the velcro on the edge of the front of the vest, the belts should then be hanging loose on either side.)

(If needed the torso belts can be adjusted at any time to change the fit or for a different child). Once the back torso belts are adjusted only the front zipper is needed to put on or take off the vest. The vest can be adjusted with the torso belts to comfortably fit children from approximately 30 to 70 pounds with chest sizes from 18 to 32 inches. The vest is 14.5 inches long from the top of the shoulder to the bottom near the child's waist. The Jr. Harvard Vest™ weight pockets are located on the inside of the vest so that the weights cannot come out accidentally while the vest is being worn. There are 6 weight pockets on the front of the vest and 8 weight pockets on the back of the vest. Each pocket has a stretch open slot invented by IRONWEAR® through which the Flex-metal® weights can be inserted or removed. Each weight pocket can accept one 1\/2 pound Flex-metal® weight or up to two 1\/4 pound Flex-metal® weights. With the vest's 14 pockets the vest can be loaded with up to 7 pounds.

The Jr. Harvard Vest™ is designed to make wearing a weighted conditioning vest as safe, comfortable, and simple as possible. Every aspect of the Jr. Harvard Vest™ makes it the safest and most comfortable weighted conditioning vest for children. First are the Flex-metal® weights which are the softest and most flexible weights made. The weights act as padding and will protect the child and things and others around them. Second is the vest construction which is ultra thin, breathable, and soft. Because the pockets which hold the 1\/4 and 1\/2 lb. weights are spread uniformly over the whole vest, the load can be uniformly distributed with minimal thickness. Two thicknesses of weights are available with 1\/2 pound soft Flex-metal® weights the thickness is 1\/2 inch and with 1\/4 pound weights the thickness of the vest is only 1\/4 inch. Not only are these weights thin but they are so very soft and flexible so they can go unnoticed by the child wearing them. To help keep the child cool the whole surface of the vest is constructed of soft knitted large open cell athletic mesh. The mesh allows air to flow easily through the vest, between the weights, and between the vest and the child's body. This makes the vest usable in all seasons, indoors or outdoors. the breathability of the vest and its thin sheer design makes it easy to wear under or overtop most clothing. The vest is extremely soft everywhere, besides the soft Flex-metal® weights the shoulders are padded with a soft foam laminate, the bests are padded and even the edges of the vest are padded with a soft stretch binding. Third the design and tailoring of the vest make it very simple to fit perfectly and adjust the weight amount easily, and put it on and off quickly. When fitting the vest the first time, just unzip it and put it on the child, then with it unzipped release the overlapping torso belts in the back (make sure to release both the end of the belt velcro and the velcro on the edge of the front of the vest, the belts should then be hanging loose on either side.)

The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ is a small version of the super durable short Uni-Vest™ Professional Vest used by police, military, and sports teams for strength and endurance development. The shoulder spacing is narrower but it uses the same wide padding for weight distribution and comfort. The front is also narrower than the standard short Uni-Vest™, the New Jr. Uni-Vest™ has 8 front double weight pockets while the standard short Uni-Vest™ has 10 double weight pockets. The back is also narrower than the standard version, the Jr. Uni-Vest™ has 12 double weight pockets in the back while the standard short Uni-Vest™ has 14. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ (Youth Large) weighted athletic vest is adjustable from 1 to 21 pounds. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ has 20 double size pockets which can hold one or two 1\/2-pound IRONWEAR® Flex-Metal® weights each. The Jr. Uni-Vest™ is supplied at 9 pounds, which consists of the 1 pound shell and 16 weights (8 1\/2-pound weights in the front pockets and 8 1\/2-pound weights in the back pockets). The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ can be loaded from 1 to 21 pounds. The shell by itself weighs 1 pound and by adding weights the Jr. Uni-Vest™ can be adjusted in 1\/2 pound increments up to 21 pounds. 40 1\/2-pound Flex-Metal® weights are required to load the vest to 21 pounds. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ is IRONWEAR®'s newest patented weighted vest, designed exclusively for the young athlete's body shape. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ was developed to make wearing weights safer and more comfortable. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ has a unique design that contours to the shape of the young athlete's body, and bends with the athlete's every movement. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ includes all the latest unique patented features. The ultra thin Contour-Fit™ design conforms to the shape of the young athlete's back, front, and sides, while the soft Flex-Metal® weights bend easily as the athlete moves. By conforming to the shape of the athlete's body the weight does not shift while the athlete moves. Also the thin weights are held against the athlete's body, so they do not affect the athlete's balance because the weight is kept close to the athlete's core. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ is an extremely safe way for young athletes to wear additional weight. The whole Jr. Uni-Vest™ design revolves around comfort and safety for the young athlete and those around them. There are multiple layers of safety. The inside of the vest is a 2mm layer of padding between the young athlete and the weights. Also, the soft Flex-Metal® are the same basic consistency as the young athlete's skin. On the outside, there is another 10mm layer of padding. All of these soft padding layers help to protect the young athlete from injury if they fall or bump into sorting, and the system helps to protect anyone that the young athlete may bump into while exercising. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ is built like a tank for military combat training and will last for years of a young athlete's abuse. The outer surface is ballistic nylon laminated to foam padding for comfort, strength, and easy cleaning. The outer surface cane wiped clean easily and dries quickly. The whole vest can also be machine washed with the weights removed. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ is super easy to load to the desired amount of weight. IRONWEAR®'s Stretch-fit™ inner pockets have a simple slot that you easily slide one or two Flex-Metal® weights into. The pockets stretch to hold the weight(s) securely on all sides and keep them from shifting. The inner pocket design makes it impossible for the weights to come loose or get lost while the young athlete exercises. Because no hardware or velcro is used to hold the weights in place the vest is safer, longer lasting, and more comfortable. The Jr. Uni-Vest™ will last a young athlete for years. The unique IRONWEAR® patented Double-lock™ belting system allows the vest to fit a wide variety of shapes and sizes. The oversized stretch belts lock on top and inside to keep the Jr. Uni-Vest™ from shifting during rigorous exercise while still expanding and contracting to allow the young athlete to breath properly. It is designed for young athletes around 50 pounds to adult athletes over 120 pounds. The Jr. Uni-Vest™ will fit many athletes over 120 pounds as well, but for some the neck opening and shoulder positioning may be too narrow. The Double-lock™ belting system adjusts from waist sizes of slightly less than 20 inches to over 40 inches. Because the vest adjusts from 1 to 21 pounds in 1\/2-pound increments, it is capable of being loaded appropriately for use from early stage youth to the loads professional athletes use for olympic training. Even if the young athlete changes their sport they make always find an application for the Jr. Uni-Vest™ in their new endeavor. The applications for the new Jr. Uni-Vest™ are endless for adding weight or resistance training for young athlete development. The New Jr. Uni-Vest™ is a great way of adding weight for mental comfort, physical therapy, balance training, or for hipline riding where riders do not weigh enough. Please remember that wearing weights is a form of weight lifting and should be treated as such with the same basic rules. Please make sure you or your athlete are checked out by your doctor before starting any exercise program. Please use the weights under the supervision of a professional. Always start with a small amount of weight and increase slowly. When loading a vest try to balance the weight on the front and back of the body. Start in the center bottommost row and fill outward. Once the bottom row is filled move upward to the next row. For resistance training for any activity in which young athletes need to jump higher, run faster, and perform longer, the Jr. Uni-Vest™ can help. Young basketball, volleyball, lacrosse, soccer, baseball, track and gymnastics athletes can all benefit from training with the Jr. Uni-Vest™, now and for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ironwear Fitness","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47728194977949,"sku":null,"price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0513\/6986\/9469\/files\/new-jr-uni-vest-youth-large-athlete-s-weighted-vest-adjustable-from-1-to-21-pounds-supplied-at-9-lbs-iv090-39.jpg?v=1773596337"},{"product_id":"silver-jr-cool-vest-shell-only","title":"Silver Jr. Cool Vest™ (Childs weighted vest) Shell Only","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Your new weighted vest is the answer to a therapists' dreams!

We have put race car logos in the \"window\" pockets for our little guy and he thinks they're great.\" (Professional Therapist) Jr. Cool Vest™ (Child’s weighted vest) .5 to 12 lb. Weighted Vest (Supplied at 3.25 lbs. with 11- 1\/4lb weights) Jr. Cool Vest™ is IRONWEAR’s ™ new patented weighted vest designed exclusively for children. The Jr. Cool Vest™ was created to make wearing a weighted vest more fun, comfortable and effective. *The Jr. Cool Vest™ is shown with the belts in front and back on a 4 year old and his 10 year old brother who weighs 100lbs. The 10 year old can wear a regular cool, club, or speed vest also. Jr. Cool Vest™ is part of IRONWEAR’s ™ Cool Vest Line™, so in addition to the Jr. Cool Vest™ there are matching adult Cool Vests™. This makes it possible for both the child and the caregiver to wear the same style vest. By wearing matching vests the child may have an easier time accepting the weighted vest. A caregiver who wears a weighted vest also increases their understanding of the effects of wearing weights. As a side benefit the caregiver can use their weighted vest to improve their own physical condition. Jr. Cool Vest’s™ unique design contours to the shape of a child’s body, allows air to flow through it to keep the child comfortable, expands to support a wide range of sizes to grow with the child, is safer for the child and others, and is packed with features to make wearing the Jr. Cool Vest™ fun. Jr. Cool Vest™ contours to the shape of the child’s body and bends with their every move. The Jr. Cool Vest™ incorporates all the latest patented IRONWEAR™ form fitting features. The ultra thin Contour-fit™ design conforms to the curves of the back, front and sides. The patented soft Flex-metal™ weights bend easily to constantly match the movements of the body. Jr. Cool Vest™ allows air to flow through, to help keep the child comfortable. The Jr. Cool Vest™ is constructed of soft athletic mesh that is durable and easy to clean. The design helps to keep the child from overheating. Jr. Cool Vest™ expands easily to accommodate a wide range of sizes. The Jr. Cool Vest™ adjusts easily to fit most children between 2 and 9 years of age, weighing less than 100 pounds. The unique design allows the Jr. Cool Vest™ to fit the child’s growing body well for years, so you do not need to buy new vests as the child grows or to buy multiple vest sizes to fit different children. Jr. Cool Vest™ unique shoulder design keeps the vest in position comfortably. The Jr. Cool Vest™ has a zipper opening that allows the vest to slide over the child’s head and positions the vest properly on the child’s shoulders. The wide padded shoulder straps spread out the load to make carrying weight easier and less noticeable to the child. Jr. Cool Vest™ helps to support the child’s abdominal and back muscles. The Jr. Cool Vest™ incorporates IRONWEAR’s™ patented full waist support system. Two patented over-sized stretch belts snug the vest to the child’s body while not inhibiting their breathing or movements. Jr. Cool Vest™ Contour-fit™ design is ultra thin and snug so that the vest will not interfere with the movement of the child’s body. The padded shoulders provide maximum flexibility, support and comfort. The Contour-fit™system makes it possible for the child to raise their arms completely, which means the vest can be used for all activities and play. The Jr. Cool Vest’s™ thin design can also be worn easily over or under clothing. Jr. Cool Vest™ Double-lock™ belting system locks both the ends of the belts and the edges of the vest to prevent the vest from shifting during even the most rigorous play. The patented overlapping stretch belts hold the vest securely to almost any size child’s torso. The Jr. Cool Vest™ fits waist and chest sizes from 15 to over 30 inches. (Children with larger chest and waist sizes can wear the regular Cool Vest™.) Jr. Cool Vest™ is easy to clean. The Jr. Cool Vest™ can be hand washed with the weights inside or machine washed with the weights removed. The porous design also allows the vest to dry quickly. Jr. Cool Vest’s™ Stretch-fit™inner pockets hold the weights securely on all sides and keep them from shifting. The inner pocket design makes it impossible for the weights to come loose while you exercise. Because no hardware or Velcro is used to hold the weights in place, the vest is safer, longer lasting, thinner and more flexible. Jr. Cool Vest™ accepts IRONWEAR’s™ patented Flex-metal™ weights which are the safest, most comfortable and best fitting weights possible. The weights are thin and flexible and contour to the shape of the child. In case of a fall the interchangeable weights act as padding to protect the child and those around them. Jr. Cool Vest™ has 11 weight pockets to uniformly distribute the weight over the child’s torso. Each weight pocket will accept one or two ½ pound soft Flex-metal™ weights, or up to four ¼ pound soft Flex-metal™ weights. The vest is available as a shell or with ¼ or ½ pound weights. Vests supplied with weights have one weight per pocket. The vest shell itself weights approximately .5 pounds. The vest can be adjusted from .5 to 12 pounds by adding Flex-metal™ weights. Jr. Cool Vest™ is supplied at approximately 3.25 pounds with a single layer of ¼ pound Flex-metal™ weights, but can be adjusted from 1 pound up to 12 pounds. The ¼ pound are very softer and more flexible than the ½ pound weights. The thinner ¼ pound weights allow the vest to be set up with a very thin layer of weights for the most uniform distribution and adjustability. Jr. Cool Vest™ can be worn with the belts secured in the front so the child can put the vest on or take it off. Also the vest can be worn with the belts secured in the back to restrict removal by the child. Jr. Cool Vest™ patented accessory system has many unique features. The vest includes integrated loop fasteners on the front and back onto which many things can be attached. The vest is supplied with 5 window holders for personalizing the vest. You can put in the child’s name, their favorite color, logo of their favorite super hero, or their own artwork in the holders that can be positioned all over the vest. Jr. Cool Vest™ is set up to be fun with all kind of play accessories. You can make your own and Velcro them on or consider the different cape and hood accessories that we offer. These accessories pull off easily to help keep the child safe and excited about wearing their vest. \"I wanted to let you know that of the two waist\/ankle belt models you sent, the smallest one worked the best for Ben.
