K1s is a 3D-printed jumper’s knee strap engineered to provide targeted patellar tendon support during running, jumping, and active sports.
A new generation of knee support engineered through biomechanics, mechanical programming, and flexible 3D-printed structures. K1s is designed to manage mechanical load around the patellar tendon, providing adaptive support, enhanced comfort, and natural freedom of movement.
Size & Fit
Each K1s comes with three interchangeable strap lengths, designed to fit lower knee circumferences from 28–48 cm (11–19 in), measured around the area just below the kneecap. Choose and install the strap length that provides your preferred fit and support.

Variable Mechanical Response
Different areas of the 3D-printed structure are engineered with specific mechanical properties to provide targeted support, controlled flexibility, and enhanced comfort.
Three-Point Interface Innovation
Creating stable interaction between K1s and knee area
Knee straps typically apply pressure through soft pads directly onto the patellar tendon area. Because both the strap and contact interface are flexible, movement may lead to shifting, rolling, and inconsistent pressure distribution.
K1s introduces a three-point mechanical interface consisting of a central patellar tendon support point and two symmetrical stabilization points positioned near the upper tibial structure.
When the strap is tensioned, these three contact points work together to create a stable force path. The lower stabilization points provide structural reference and act as povit points on tibial helping maintain focused contact and support at the patellar tendon support point while reducing unwanted movement.
Easy Cleaning
No need to choose size
Every K1s includes three strap sizes, providing a versatile fit for over 90% of users and making it easy to share with family and friends.
K1s Knee Strap
The K1s is designed for users who participate in activities involving running, jumping, squatting, or repeated
lower-body movement.
It is suitable for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, recreational runners, and active individuals.
No.
The K1s is designed as a sports and performance wearable. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition.
If you have an existing injury or medical condition, please consult a qualified healthcare professional before using the product.
3D printing allows us to create complex, flexible structures that are difficult to manufacture using conventional methods.
The geometry of the structure can be engineered to control flexibility, force distribution, and interaction with the body.
Yes.
The K1s uses a structured three-point support interface rather than relying only on a conventional elastic strap.
Because of its mechanical structure, the fit feels more supportive while maintaining the comfort of a traditional soft knee strap.
In general, gently clean the wearable components with mild soap and water and allow them to air-dry completely before use.
Do not use harsh chemicals, bleach, or high-temperature drying methods unless specifically instructed.
Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
