<p>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&#x2019;t compromise on comfort, aesthetics, or support.</p><p>Learn more about how Supportive Apparel works, <a href="https://ca.stoko.com/pages/technology" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>.</p><div style="box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; color: rgb(27, 28, 29); font-family: Inter, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: pre-wrap; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;"><p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></p><div data-offset-key="4kce-0-0" style="box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; position: relative; white-space: pre-wrap; direction: ltr; text-align: left;"><span data-offset-key="4kce-0-0" style="box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;"><span data-text="true" style="box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; font-size: 16px;"><br></span></span></div><p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></p></div><p><br></p>
