HOW TO WEAR THEM
- Prior to using the device, read the following instructions completely.
- We’re stoked you’re stoked to get into your new STOKO SUPPORTIVE TIGHTS. Trust us, they’re like nothing you’ve worn before! Here’s a couple tips and tricks to make your first experience a little easier.
- THEY ARE HARD TO GET ON THE FIRST TIME
- Sit down and inch them up like a wetsuit – they will get stuck if you try to pull them on like normal pants. It could take 5 minutes or more to put them on for the first time, so follow the instructions on the next page which walk you through the essential steps to ensure a flawless fit.
- THEY NEED TO BREAK IN
- They might feel small at first! Stretch the waistband outward and pull on the cables to distribute support down your legs. As you move they will mold perfectly to your body, so the more you move, the more the cables will work their magic.
- SUPPORTIVE APPAREL FEELS DIFFERENT
- Unlike a traditional brace, your Supportive Apparel will not feel rigid or bulky. The Stoko Support System is designed to mimic your muscles and ligaments, reinforcing your body and engaging when you need it.
PUTTING ON
-
Pull the dials out to disengage the support system.
-
Stretch the waistband and legs out to relax the cables.
-
Sitting down, pull the tights over each foot. Work the tights up your calf, positioning the crisscrossed cables at your mid-shin.
-
Continue working the tights up to your knees and align the knee band right below your knee cap.
-
Stand up and pull the waistband over your hips. If the waistband does not feel high enough, pull up on the thigh cables to give yourself some more space. This will be difficult if the knee band and criss crossed cables are positioned too low.
ADJUSTING -
Push the dials in and twist to engage support – you will feel them tighten at your waist first.
-
To distribute the support to your legs, pull the waistband outward and move (squat, jog, etc.).
-
STOKO SUPPORTIVE TIGHTS are adjustable and provide more support the more you tighten. Your support is personal, adjust according to comfort or medical recommendation.
-
You will know your tights are working as you feel them tighten across your waist, thighs, and calves.
REMOVAL -
Pull the dials out to disengage the support system.
-
Pull the waistband outwards to release the cables and work the tights down your legs and off.
