HOUSTON, Sept. 9, 2026
Launched during September's NICU Awareness Month, the integrated feature gives caregivers discreet access while preserving the softness, comfort, and timeless style associated with Paty clothing.
HOUSTON, Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- In recognition of NICU Awareness Month, Paty, Inc., a Houston-based maker of premium infant and children's apparel, announced today that PatyPort™, its integrated gastrostomy tube (G-tube) access feature, is now available in selected garments.
PatyPort™ is built directly into the garment rather than added as a separate accessory. Its discreet, pleated opening is designed to give caregivers convenient access to a child's G-tube while maintaining the familiar look and feel of Paty apparel.
Observed each September, NICU Awareness Month honors NICU babies and families as well as the healthcare professionals who care for them. Paty is introducing PatyPort™ during the observance to recognize these families and help bring attention to practical needs that can continue beyond a child's hospital stay.
"PatyPort™ began with a request from a mom caring for a baby with a G-tube who was looking for an easier way to access her baby's feeding tube," said Caren Veillon, President and Creative Director of Paty. "Her request inspired us to create a thoughtful solution that provides discreet G-tube access while preserving the softness, comfort, and timeless style families expect from Paty."
For families who manage tube feeding, clothing can present an additional daily consideration. PatyPort™ offers a more seamless option by incorporating access into a thoughtfully designed garment that children can comfortably wear throughout the day.
The feature reflects Paty's commitment to listening to families and adapting its signature designs to serve their real-world needs. PatyPort™ garments retain the quality construction and classic styling for which the brand is known, allowing the functional detail to remain subtle.
Selected garments featuring PatyPort™ are available now at patyinc.com
