I like them

I like them. I have a medium pair and because they fit too tight, I decided to try a large. They are nicer fitting then the medium as the seams don't rip every time I pull them on. However, the crotch sags quite a bit. So, as many have said, Stoko needs intermediary sizing (ie, S, SmallMed, Med, MedLarge, Large, .... to accommodate more sizes...

I’m 60 years old had ACL reconstructive surgery 40 years ago afterfootball rugby

I’m 60 years old had ACL reconstructive surgery 40 years ago afterfootball rugby, was able to do 40 years of Ironman‘s until my back gave out started having problems with bulging disc and pinched nerve. This product has given me a new lease on life. I can’t believe it. I really can’t believe it.

They worked for me

I had to exchange to a medium from a small (i was on the borderline of the sizing chart). The delivery both times was relatively slow. However, the product is excellent. I went from running with pain to running without, and without soreness the following day. The tights are (necessarily?) thick, which is uncomfortablr in the summer heat, but frankly i prefer that to not running!

The sizes are not correct as per information that was provided.

Great support for my quads, hamstrings and knees

They have been excellent so far, only issue is one of the seams near the ankle is separating, can see where the wires are. Could, be a little more high waisted as it feels like they are slipping down my hips a little, but otherwise I have felt great wearing them. Been using them to play softball and golf.

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.  

The K1 provides support and stability to the body like traditional knee braces; however, the K1 achieves these outcomes through different means. The K1 relies on tension throughout the Embrace 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 make you compromise on comfort, aesthetic, or support.
