Promesse tenue, de très bonnes qualités et très bon support à mon genou pour le ski, raquette, curling et golf.
I wore them 1 day around the house and 1 day skiing. I love the extra support while skiing, my legs and hips felt stronger on the turns on the steeps. I am 68 and a bit overweight. I will be definitely using these again.
I use them a lot for hikes, simple walk with my childrens in carriers, as a sport therapist, i do work on big mans often also !
The only thing is i love sports leggings and i dont know if i compare too much! I need to get them up so often its becoming a toc !
Compared to some other marks, these are not molding anough in between my legs and cheeks even if im a man!
Im 5"11/165lbs ... they would be perfect molding like lululemon or so ! The support we get though is perfect over that molding issue !
Supports my knees and increases confidence. Allows me to skate ski , downhill ski etc with greater control and
with less discomfort
I wasn’t sure what to expect , after using rap braces on my knees for some time while skiing. But to my surprise and relief the stoko tights worked as advertised. While a bit tight to start as you wear them more there very comfortable and supportive. My only negative is the waist is tight and yet they still creep down your hips .

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-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.
