Why Stoko K1s Cost What They Do
We’ve all been there, you find something you’re super excited about buying, you get all the way to the checkout without even glancing at the price, only to be surprised by the final amount. At Stoko, we’re doing everything we can to avoid “sticker shock” moments like this. For us, that means being transparent about our pricing from the jump and giving you insight into why our products cost what they do. So, here’s all the nitty gritty you’ll need to feel 100% about your purchase:
Think Tights, Only Supercharged
Our tights are a first-of-its-kind—the world's first Supportive Apparel that are registered as a class one medical device in both Canada and the US. What does this mean? It means that you’ll have all the support needed to push your limits, protect your body and perform your best—but without any of the bulk of a rigid knee brace, and for a lot less. Traditional knee braces can actually put you back anywhere between $1000 to $2000, per leg. It also means that your K1s may be eligible for reimbursement from your insurance carrier, which you can find more about, here.
We Did the Research & Called in Back Up
Over a span of four years, we worked with the brightest minds—think: physicians, physiotherapists, engineers and a diverse range of passionate athletes—to develop a never-before-seen, proprietary technology: the Stoko Support System. This system is powered by 90ft of high-strength, lightweight cables that mimic the natural muscles and ligaments of your body. Woven directly into the technically-knit fabric, these cables provide support, stability and targeted compression like you’ve never experienced. Some of the top athletes in the world—pro skiers, NFL players and Olympians—are wearing, testing and thriving in our product. And it’s all designed and tested right here in Vancouver, Canada to boot.
