So far so good

I know this is directed towards people who are fit and work out - but I bought these as a gift for my housemate. He has a number of conditions that prevent him from working out or even standing for too long. He has a larger belly area and find the pants difficult to wear for a long period of time as a result. HOWEVER that being said, he does find that he doesn't have as much pain and can walk longer and stand longer with them on. Totally worth getting! Thank you!

K1 TRIAL

I HAVE TRIED THE K1 BRACE AND FOUND NO RELIEF FOR MY KNEE, WHICH IS VERY PAINFUL BECAUSE OF BONE ON BONE. I CAN SEE ANYONE WITH MINOR KNEE PROBLEMS,THE SUPPORT AROUND THE LOWER BODY AND LEGS IS SOLID. BUT MY SITUATION IS GRAVE, I AM HAVING A KNEE REPLACEMENT IN 3 MONTHS.
IF YOU HAVE A RETURN POLICY, I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR HELP IN THAT RESPECT.
TO HELP ME IN THE NEXT 3 MONTHS DO YOU HAVE A BRACE, THAT GOES FROM THE LOWER HAM STRING TO THE UPPER CALF, ONE THAT YOU JUST PULL IT OVER YOUR LEG. THANK YOU. BOB DEVINE

Love the support. Can’t seem to quite get them high enough on my hips but maybe they’re not broken in completely

Didn't think they were worth the price.

I was sceptical about ordering the K1, thinking I can always return them. I am nursing two bad knees from over use on the pickleball court, place 5 times a week. The first time I tried the K1, WOW!. Played 2hours straight. Pain was barely noticeable. Got to get a 2nd pair so I can use the spare one while the other one is in the wash & drying. These are worth money!

2nd version is better!

I tried the first version and didn't find it that amazing. This second version is fantastic! The under patella front of tibia stiffener feels incredibly supportive. Plus a way to pee!

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.
