KT Tape, Original Cotton, Elastic Kinesiology Athletic Tape, 20 Count, 10” Precut Strips

Good, flexible tape, allowing great range of motion. Downside: peals off at the edge in couple hours and leave sticky stuff on skin after removing.

I have tried several brands of kinesiology tape and this brand has always worked best for me. It allows for the perfect amount of tension and it does not peel off. It comes in a great assortment of colors. I have used it on myself and for my daughter who was born with torticolis. After a few months of PT and using KT Tape, her condition was corrected. I trust this brand.

When it comes to this stuff, the only thing better than regular KT Tape is KT Tape PRO! This product is wonderful. I have been using this tape on my entire family. From my daughters sprained ankle in basketball, to my hubbys golf shoulder, elbow, and thumb tendonitis and arthritis issues, to my own sad state of chronic knee condition, worn out shoulders (pre and post surgical to help me rehab), and in general on whichever body part is deciding to either fail or not cooperate on any given day for any number of activities, I would highly recommend this product. I also advocate using the prep cleaner and adhesive, and PRO versions if you tend to be a oilier skined or person or if your activities will cause you to get wet or sweat much, as this, along with how well you cleaned and dried your skin before using has a direct impact on how well it adhears and/or how long it stays that way. Also, if the area you are taping has you having to put clothing on and off frequently, (like knees endure when using the restroom, for example) this can sometimes cause ends to get pulled up (another reason why I recommend the prep and adhesive spray as well). Aside from how expensive it can be if you are needing to continue using for for your desired activities, I have found KT tape to be a godsend in it allows me to continue doing the activities and sports I love despite my own genetics determination to fall apart. The products ability to stretch with my skin prevents much of the discomfort that traditional athletic taping causes, and the adhesive is quite gentile on my skin (which is known to react poorly to nearly all adhesives from Band-Aids to paper tape), while still providing the nessesary support needed to stay active. In addition, it is available in a variety of fun colors or skin tones so you can go as bold or subtle as you wish. The online video tutorials are well made and easy to follow to assist you in getting just the right amount support for your area of need. I highly recomend to all and have bought this product many times and will continue to do so until science can fix my battered body. Till then I thank God I found the great product!

Does not stay on skin due to lack of adhesion

Great quality

I normally dont write reviews on items I bought online. But in this case, I have to let all the competitive recreational and semi-pro athletes know...if you suffer from any kind of acute or chronic muscular, tendon or other orthopedic injuries, you need to try this tape. Im a competitive triathlete, and about 9 months ago after an olympic distance triathlon, both of my achilles tendons and the retrocalcaneal bursa got badly inflamed. Since then, I tried everything to get rid off the inflammation...short-term rest, ice therapy, I lifted the heels with insoles, changed the shoes, elastic bandages, local and systemic NSAIDs, physical therapy, regular taping, and finally I ended up with sleeping in these bulky night splints (which was btw the worst experience I have ever made). But nothing worked. The pain after every workout and in the morning was excruciating, my heels were red and swollen all the time. Of course, the orthopedist to take off of exercising for 6-9 months, but he couldnt guarantee that it would be gone by then nor if it could come back. Well, I couldnt rest for 9 month, no way:-) SO I have almost given it up and just ignored the pain and the swelling, when a friend of mine gave me a product sample of the KT tape that she got at one of these races. And of course, as desperated as I was, I used the tape right after I watched on youtube how to apply the tape for achilles tendon problems. And the result was stunning. Right after the first few days, the swelling decreased, the pain was less severe and I could stop taking NSAIDs. This tape provided a supportive feeling at each workout. I was so impressed, I couldnt believe it after all these months of suffering. The tape sticks as described for 3-4 days even with tough workouts every day, when you handle it gently. It survives daily sweating and short hot showers. Even if it looks a little loose after the shower, it will stick tightly after it is dry. I also keep the tape on on my rest days, because it just supports the entire mechanics of my heels while walking around. Im using the KT tape now for 3 months, and my symptoms are almost gone. Only after very tough workouts, I can feel some pain. However they returned after I have forgotten to tape one time. So finally, I cannot live without the KT tape anymore :-)

I use this elastic athletic tape for my knee, which is not athletic at all. It’s great that it’s precut in standard sizes. Might be a bit longer than I need but felt like a better option to use precut for a novice like me. My physical therapist applied the other ones, so I knew what to do. Cutting to create the spider web pattern for the knee was easy and clean (no threads). The picture is 3 days in, with several showers and a bath so holding up really well. Definitely recommend.

I used this for tendonitis on the top of my foot. You have to apply it correctly for proper results. Watched a video on how to adhere the tape. I work out everyday and am on my feet all day at work. Within a few days, the pain and swelling went down. Highly recommend!

Husband said it took his foot pain away while working. Did the job for him

I twisted my knee, already with arthritis, and was screaming in pain after the twist for 3 days. Upon watching football last Sunday I saw a player get his shoulder injured and we thought he was OUT. A play or two later he comes out... makes some great runs, makes a key block and scores the game winning touchdown! They had put KT tape on his shoulder. So happens I already HAD some. Cant even remember why I bought it. Put 3 strips on my knee and INSTANTLY... yes instantly it started feeling better, then after still taking it easy for couple hours and icing it couple of times I could walk rather well. Still felt it a little but in no way hindered me with the awful pain. Still using it, showering with it and all, and getter better every day. LOVE THIS PRODUCT.
