The tights protect my sore knees

I have arthritis in both knees and have had to wear braces. Purchased the K1 pants as an alternative to the braces for hockey as I play goal. They have been great thus far after three games. Knees are still sore, but feel protected. The pants are tight when adjusted, but get more used to them after each wearing. A seam on the inner thigh has now started to fray and a hole has developed. Attempting to submit warranty claim. The only complaint I have had with customer service is that all communication is by email. Cannot call anyone. Great product. Looking forward to trying them on slopes.

Supportive Tights second generation XL

Definitely better quality than the 1st generation. I purchased the Merino supportive tights as but this time in L size not XL. I want to compare with my XL first pair of tights as I think that they are too long for me. But even I completely paid the Merinos on November 5th , I still have to wait probably 10 more days until have them in my hands. Hopefully I will get them and come back here for feedback

Amazing product. Bring back colors.

This product is amazing ! Serves as support during activities, and speeds up recovery big time.

Hard to put on at first, but once you develop tricks and you get the hang of it, it’s easy.

Y’all need to bring back limited edition colors. If the white color was available for Supportive tights V2, I would have bough it already. I’m just waiting for it to drop.

Generally good support

As a rigid knee brace user, i found the support for my knee to be good but definitely not as strong as the brace. I use the brace to offload the pressure on one side of the knee to alleviate pain from a meniscus tear. The Stoko tights felt as they were supportive over the whole leg, but i felt stronger support at the knee would be more beneficial. Preferably with adjustment capabilities right at the knee area, instead of only tightening at the waist.
For my other knee which bothers me but not quite as much, it felt great & definitely helped during aggressive court play.
After a couple of wearings, i was about to send them back as they didn't feel enough of a replacement for my brace. But after another couple of intensive court sessions, i think they support my other knee well, and i will use them in conjunction with the brace.
Overall, I'd recommend these, especially if your extended health insurance helps cover the cost. (they are classified as a medical device).

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.
