Are there exoskeletons designed for women?
The answer in detail
Several brands offer versions designed for the female body, notably for support garments and for a back exoskeleton. That does not mean the other models are unusable: they adjust, but size, cut and support point vary from model to model.
The right reflex is to compare the manufacturer's size chart with your measurements, and to favor the dedicated version when one exists.
These products do not serve the same uses. Stoko and Imbrace are textile support garments with a low weight: the men's Stoko tights page states about 450 g. The Hapo CS is a passive spring exoskeleton, worn at work to relieve the lower back when bending. The garment is worn daily or for skiing, the back exoskeleton on a workstation.
What the catalog offers
| Model | Use | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Hapo CS | lumbar support, female fit, 0.850 kg | 2,158.80 euros |
| Stoko K1 Women (tights) and Women's short | knee, hip, lower-back support | 388 and 338 dollars |
| Imbrace Gen 2 Women | supportive ski leggings | 192 euros |
| Ski-Mojo | skiing, stated minimum height of 1.55 m | 699 euros |
Specifications come from the catalog pages. Stoko prices are in dollars, the original currency.
How to choose
- Note your measurements: height, thigh and waist circumference, depending on the model.
- Compare them with the manufacturer's chart, without rounding up.
- Prefer the women's version when it exists, notably for the back.
- Check the return or trial policy before ordering.
- Do a fitting test on delivery, for a few minutes, before real use, and send the product back promptly if the cut does not suit you.
Common mistakes
Choosing a size often comes down to a few centimeters.
- Choosing the size from an ordinary garment rather than from the chart.
- Ignoring the minimum height stated by the manufacturer, such as the 1.55 m for the Ski-Mojo.
- Believing the women's version is mandatory or, on the contrary, useless, without looking at the cut.
- Ordering without knowing the return conditions, especially for a garment whose cut is judged on fitting.
Key takeaways
Yes, the catalog includes references designed for women: Hapo CS for the back, Stoko K1 as tights and shorts, and Imbrace Gen 2 Women. The Ski-Mojo requires a height of at least 1.55 m. Always compare your measurements with the manufacturer's chart and check the return conditions. The Ski-Mojo, for its part, is set according to height and thigh: check the chart before confirming the order. To compare the ranges, read our buying guide and our question on exoskeleton size.
