Percko is a posture-correcting undershirt that gives wearers a gentle nudge when they are slouching or leaning.
On average, today's desk worker sits for 9 hours a day, 365 days a year. This is having horrible health consequences on spines. Today, back pain is the second most common reason for doctors' appointments. Percko is a posture-correcting garment that helps correct this issue.
Whenever the wearer strays from their correct alignment, therefore inadvertently putting stress on their spine, tensors in the Percko posture-correcting shirt tense up and give them a slight nudge back toward proper sitting position. At the same time, the Percko tensors support the wearer's back, with added lumbar support, creating an all-around strengthening system.
The Percko posture-correcting undershirt can be completely concealed under any everyday shirt, offering subtle back support and posture coaching.
