WMSC is pleased to announce a new partnership with “supportive apparel” provider Stoko . Stoko is re-inventing knee support systems and they wish to partner with our athletes and membership. Stoko will provide both a discount to our membership and a contribution to WMSC with each transaction.

To quote their website; “Stoko calls its product supportive apparel and it is getting everyone back to doing what they love. Customizable and anatomically correct, you get all the support of a traditional knee brace within the comfort of a compression tight. Our products are engineered to help you come back from your knee injury sooner, protect a chronic knee injury from getting worse and minimize your chance of getting injured in the first place.” Visit their website for more product details, www.Stokodesign.com
