Kinesio Taping - Elastic Therapeutic Athletic Tape Tex Gold FP - Beige – 2 in. x 16.4 ft

I've been tempted by some of the knock offs being sold for half the price since I don't always use this as kinesio and so could go with a cheapie brand, but continue to buy this one. It works as it should, long lasting yet isn't too harsh when removing. I use it to cover bruises on my arms from soccer while they are healing -- looks better than showing a bruise and you can cut it to shape. I also wrap my toes to prevent blistering in my cleats. Also, I tape this into a variety of shoes to prevent squeaking and slipping [such as on the inside of soccer cleats at the heel/ankle cup and even on dress shoes at the heels and toes] and it lasts at least a season. I also use it with some cotton to make a versatile band aid to wrap on areas that a traditional band aid won't cover. Yesterday, I taped a strip just under each knee cap and it gave reassuring support for knees worn out from decades of running. This tape has so many uses. UPDATE: I have bought their standard black [they have an extra strong black also, but not sure it is any different than the regular black] and it sticks so well that is seems to be a cut above this one as far as performance. The black can last up to a week and even when I am doing hot yoga -- that is very impressive. I continue to buy this beige when I have a need for cover ups, and the black for more serious applications. Was using the black for LCL taping method where one of the tapes scoops around the knee. You can feel the blood flow to the area, plus give support. Was easy to remove also. Great product.

This stuff is great. Does not leave sticky residue when you pull it off. Lasts for several days (if you must), even after you shower.

Had surgey and a toe is slightly elevated, tape works great to bring this toe into balance with the others !

I wear kinesiology tape almost always in my knee after a bad surgical outcome. I use it for stability but it has been life changing to address the problems I've had from nerve damage caused by the surgery. Somehow k tape significantly decreases the erroneous nerve sensations I experience and helps with proprioception. Since I wear it constantly I have tried many different brands. I really like the way my knee feels with this brand and have been chosing it over other options for many months. The main downside is that it leaves a lot of adhesive on your skin and starts to fray within hours of applying it so...it doesn't look pretty. I have even purchased a specialized adhesive remover for skin to make removing all the leftover adhesive easier.

Excellent elastic therapeutic tape. Great support for my arm muscles, as I was having soreness from golfing multiple times a week. A friend suggest this brand of therapeutic tape, and it helped a lot. It says it is the original Kinesio tape. It never hurt my skin, or caused any rashes, for me. And it stayed on almost two days. Very pleased and highly recommend.

This stuff is literally saving my husbands arm. He is a general contractor and is using his arms all day. He has what is suspected as a torn tendon (working with a dr) and without this tape on his arm he can barely use it. This is working out so far to be really good interim support so that he can continue working. If you are experiencing a sprain, tendinitis or other pains that could benefit from support, I highly recommend trying this tape. The only downside we have with it is that because it’s so sticky it pulls hair out and sometimes leaves a little bit of raw skin when removing it.

Osteoarthritis - this is perfect tape for joint restraint/immobilization on hands and wrists. My therapist uses it and said it was available on Amazon. It's all good. Thank you

I previously wrote a very positive review for this tape. I began using it about 5 yrs ago to ease the pain from my Achilles Tendonitis. More recently it has greatly helped ease my chronic left knee pain by applying 3" strips along side my knee and one more behind the knee. What I especially appreciated was that the tape held in place for weeks at a time, through many showers. However, the last box I recieved has necessitated in me replacing a strip at least once a week. Also, the edges are fraying within the same time frame. I don't know if the adhesive is different but I am not pleased with how often I have to change the applications.

Muy adecuado para parálisis facial

La cinta no tiene suficiente pegamento al momento de ponerla se empieza a despegar por lo que no volvere a comprarla

Great product, very helpful for my knee pain

This is GOOD stuff!! I bought it on recommendation from my Sports Therapist and (with appropriate direction on where to stick it!) it got me n my dodgy hamstring through Tough Mudder - and was still attached at the end (which, considering how wet/muddy I was at the finish, was pretty impressive)! I went for the Gold cos I was told it was the best and this was the cheapest I'd manage to find it. It also arrived very quickly!

Read a review from another runner suggesting to use KT Tape versus blister pads on feet to reduce chaffing on typical hotspots. This tape proved very effective for helping me heal some bad early season blisters. It is easy to apply, stretches well to conform to balls of feet and heels, and stays in place even for long distance runs. I now use it as a preventive measure for every long run.
