Tough to put on

I have a waist of 36 and I ordered a XL as the chart recommended but ouf not easy to put on. Good knees support but it could be cool to have more volume on calves to make it easier to put on!

Very Impressed

I'm an avid snowboarder with ACL injuries. I thought I would give these a try. I was very impressed with the quality. I wasn't sure what to think when I first tried them, like the instructions say "they do feel different" and that is very much the case. I have done 2 full split board sessions with them so far with minimal to zero knee pain and my knee felt really good and supported during all aspects of the day, from hiking up to laying down turns, this usually isn't the case for me early season. These are looking like a total game changer for me and cant wait to see what they offer me for the rest of the season. I'm super stoked on them!

Gen 2 "magic pants" even better than the first

Have worn my new Gen. 2 for 6 skates now. I have to say, I am more than happy with them.
I wouldn't even consider playing without my Stokos previously as an almost 50 year old goalie. I have worn the Gen. 1 for two plus seasons. No need to bring out the old neoprene knee brace, no hammy issues. Both of which were issues that led me to Stoko.
The new Gen. 2 are more comfortable, breath better, and squish a certain area a lot less! All this with the same feel of support in the right places, and ease of mobility!
Keep up the great work!
Just looking forward to a Gen 2 flux being available soon for the summer activities.

Very positive results

I have only been able to walk 2 miles per day for 2 days before my knees start aching. I would have to rest them on the third day. With the Stoko assistance I walked 2 miles the the first day and my knees did not ache. On the second day I walked 4 miles and my kneee were fine. I was able to continue my exercise routine all week with out any knee problems.I am very pleased with the results of using the Stoko product and would recommend it to anyone that needs great knee support.

Still have Questions?

Stoko accepts returns & exchanges within 60 days of the purchase date. 

We encourage you to put your Supportive Apparel to the test before deciding to return. Move in them, get sweaty, and give them all you got. There is a short break-in period with your Supportive Tights. This means it will take a bit of time before your tights begin to regulate and feel comfortable on your body. They can be a total pain at first and challenging to get used to, Supportive Apparel is very different than any other tights or braces you’ve tried.

All Stoko products provide the same medical-grade bracing support, leveraging our Stoko Support System technology. It is really up to your personal preference what style would suit you the best!


All-Purpose: Both the Supportive Tight and K1 Flux are engineered to deliver support in a variety of activities and is our most recommended product for all-around use. From everyday activity to court sports to golf, the K1 Flux and Supportive Tight can do it all while also keeping you cool with knitted ventilation.

Ski & Snow: K1 Summit is engineered to deliver support and warmth. It was designed for snow sports, such as skiing, snowboarding, and cross-country skiing.

Run & Hike: K1 Tempo is engineered to deliver support and keep you cool in warm environments, such as: running, hiking, and training.  

Similar to other traditional/medical grade knee braces, the Supportive Tight provides support and stability to the body in compromised knee positions; however, the Supportive Tight achieves these outcomes through different means. The Supportive Tight relies on tension throughout the Stoko Support System to generate support, which is made up of cables that are integrated into the tights. The result is support that moves with your body and doesn’t compromise on comfort, aesthetics, or support.
