Company Overview

Sandra Maniago started Loko Sport in 2006 as a way of realizing a childhood dream of designing her own fashion collection. After graduating from Ryerson University’s Fashion Design Program in 1990, Maniago worked as a Pattern Grader on Toronto’s Spadina Avenue and had the lovely experience of being a Seamstress in the costume department of The National Ballet. 

After working as a Design Room Assistant at a small activewear company, Maniago began her journey as an entrepreneur by producing cheerleading and competitive dance costumes for teams across Canada. Forever a fan of fitness, yoga, gymnastics and dance, Maniago felt compelled to share her own activewear designs with Canadian women by way of local boutique stores.

The company has grown and evolved over the years, and we are happy and honoured to have met and clothed so many wonderful women. We are a company that values social responsibility and inclusion:

Loko Sport is 100% designed and manufactured in Canada. We value a positive work environment that treats workers with respect and provides employment to our neighbours. Our makers follow Canadian employment and environmental laws while providing quality construction. There is no need to coat our clothes with formaldehyde since they are not being imported and are made right here at home.

Loko Sport is Inclusive.

The collection is designed to fit and flatter every woman who enjoys an active lifestyle and comfortable, stylish clothes. We offer 8 sizes from XS-20.

Loko Sport is Eco-conscious. 

We love bamboo! It is a biodegradable plant and regenerates in 55 days. It requires no pesticides and is naturally wickable and breathable. AEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified.

Chitosante is used in our technical tops. It is EPA certified and achieves its anti-bacterial properties by using the shells of crab or shrimp. It is breathable, wickable and quick-drying.
