How it Works

HOW IT Works

The Technology
Behind The Support

It took four years of working with some of the brightest minds in engineering, apparel, and medicine to create our proprietary support system - The Embrace System™ - but how does it work?

invisible medical-grade support

A world's first. These are not your average tights.  This is not your grandpa's knee brace. This is Supportive Apparel, and it was built for freedom of movement.

High Strength Support Cables

90 feet of high strength cables are embedded into these bad boys. The cables mimic the body's muscles and ligaments, wrapping the lower body from hip to calf.

Fully adjustable Support

Two control dials allow you to adjust the level of support needed, individually for each limb,  and the system can be engaged or disengaged on the move. 

Improved Stability & Confidence

All of the elements that make up the Embrace System™ work together to offer greater stability during activity, giving you the confidence to keep doing what you love.

The Embrace System™

Each Stoko product delivers support that rivals traditional bracing. Integrated directly into the fabric of each garment, support cables, laminations, and control dials work together to provide support that reduces pain, protects the body, and gives you confidence. This system mimics the natural support structures of the body, the muscles and ligaments, to deliver free-moving, comfortable support.

How Stoko technology works

Support cables

90 feet of high-strength cables. 15x the strength of steel (weight for weight). Integrated directly into the fabric.

Laminations

Laminations guide the cables to where they are needed most for support while maintaining full range of motion.

Control Dials

Two dials in the waistband allow adjustment of the support in each leg independently.

Targeted Compression

Increased compression targeting the knee promotes stability, confidence, and faster exercise recovery.
