This fall I introduced vests to Paige. She loves them! I do not love zipping them up over and over and over because she wears one for a while, then picks another or whatever.
MagnaMini has come to the rescue with their line of jackets and puffy vests with no zippers, buttons or snaps. These jackets and vest have hidden magnets sewn into them. Fashion meets function and saves my sanity!
Created by Maura Horton after her husband was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in his 40’s and lost the mobility in his hands and fingers. This then turned into designing items for kids.
Not only do I love the vest, it’s become Paige’s favorite item to wear. We chose the Hadley Vest in Libby Lou Stripe. It has chevron quilting and is great quality. Made of water resistant, durable 210T nylon with 100% polyester fill, it dries quickly. It’s not overly puffy, so it’s comfortable to wear all day long.
Funny story, the first time Paige wore her vest to school she said the principal was putting silverware on her tray when the spoon stuck to Paige’s vest. They both got a good laugh out of it!
Magnamini offers styles for both boys and girls, vests and barn coats in sizes 2T – 6/7. Barn coats retail for $79.99 and vests sell for $59.99, and while that is on the pricey side, the quality is absolutely top-notch and the independence that my kiddo receives from being able to close the vest without asking for help is worth it!

I love, love that vest on her! How smart to use magnets for closure 🙂
