Waterproof Kinesiology Tape - [3 Rolls] - Kinetic Tape - Joints Support & Muscle Pain Relief - 16.4 ft Uncut Knee Tape + 50 Videos - Muscle Tape - Easy to Apply Shoulder Tape

This athletic tape works nicely. Personally, I still struggle to get it on (ankle) without some wrinkles here and there that are hard to smooth out. But that's likely user error and the fact that wrapping from one side of the foot underneath and around to the other is a challenge - especially with varying degrees of targeted stretch. Happily, the tendon in need of support appears to be coming around to be less painful, so I will likely have plenty of leftover in this generous 3-pack for future use - hopefully not needed! Another reason there'll be leftovers is that once it's applied, it really does remain in place for days on end. I was doubtful about this but, as advertised, it really does seem to last once applied - even with my creases here and there. If I got really good at applying it without any wrinkles, that would suggest I've been in need for way too long ... so my amateur skills are a sign of quick healing. ;-)

Tweaked my arm pretty bad a month or so ago and apparently developed shoulder impingement syndrome. Discovered the miracle of KT-Tape upon doing an internet search of the pain symptoms I was experiencing 2-3 weeks ago. Had been using KT-Tape because it worked great for isolating the particular tendon, but despite how strong it went on it quickly started coming off in the shower or when any wet liquid was applied (sweat included). I even shaved my arm and wiped it down with alcohol before each application... it just wouldn't stick. Not seeing any other good option in my local stores I went online to Amazon and quickly found this tape. I do not often write reviews for my numerous of purchases on Amazon, but I just had to with this product. It holds. The edges have stayed adhered to the skin on my arm for 2 days now. No fraying of the edges as I use my arm to reach for things in my pocket or if I perform any activity where my arm might brush against something. No waking up in the morning to find half the tape on my arm already peeled off. It is softer feeling (like satin or silk) than KT-Tape and adheres very nicely for me at least, still performing the same preparation of my arm as I did with the KT-Tape. The only con would be that if you need to really get a good stretch on this tape it will do it BUT the sides of the tape can curl up a little bit... However, despite this the tape maintains the hold and the edges have not progressed passed the initial curl that occurred when I applied the tape initially. I am impressed and would recommend anyone to try this tape if they are having issues with KT-Tape brand.

This tape is amazing, helps with my knee pain so I can do activities with my grands again.

I have tried several brands of kinesiology tape over the years, and this is by far my favorite. I ordered it because of the price point - I needed a LOT of tape to cope with a recent fall. I have found this tape to be perfectly sticky - it adheres to the skin under my clothes and through multiple showers, but easily removes when I need to change the shape of the treatment. I have had other tapes take off skin with removal, or burn my skin, leaving a print of the adhesive for days after removal. My sensitive skin has had no reaction to this tape, even after leaving it on for several days. When I first opened the tape and saw the material was a silky nylon-type fabric, I wondered if it would be breathable or durable enough. I love that feature now. This fabric hasn't frayed yet, unlike all the big name cotton tapes, which I usually have to trim daily as the tails wear off and unravel. It dries quickly after a shower, and my skin hasn't complained about being stifled in any way (no rash, itching, burning). I have tried this tape on many body parts already (It was a pretty good fall). I was shocked to see the bruising on my arm completely dissipated under the tape, while the areas between the thin "drainage tails" were still purple and yellow. The tape is supportive, too, seeming to help my mobility in the injured shoulder and lessen the ache during the day. I even taped my husband's shoulder to neck, thinking it wouldn't last long as the top anchor is at the edge of his hairline. It's still there two days later. I'm impressed. The only problem I've had with this tape is that I tried to do a rib wrap on the injured side, and one of the vertical support sections was anchored on the edge of one end to the soft fluffy tissue on the front of my chest (I am female). I developed a rash in that spot. I can't really blame that on the tape, however, but on my clumsy instruction to my taping assistant on that day. That type of flesh just isn't anchor material. I am very pleased with this purchase over all. I have started my second roll of the three in the box, and I will have tape left over for whatever little sore spot shows up next. This tape is going to be a staple in my self-care kit from now on.

This is the worst k-tape style product I have ever used. It does not allow you to control the stretch the way a traditional woven K tape does, and it barely sticks. The corners start to roll immediately, and it barely hangs on for a full day, and not that long if you're sweating at all. I have used plenty of different brands and am very good about never touching the sticky side, using sharp scissors to creat clean, smooth corners (I have a special pair of scissors just for this purpose), etc. so it’s not user error. I only tried this on the promise it was waterproof because I wanted something I didn’t have to replace every time I surfed, but honestly Rock Tape is so much better, and doesn’t even call itself waterproof. I can only say I’m glad I got the three pack as I will probably have to use all of it rehabing one injury, and I will be sticking to what I know works in the future. I recommend you do the same.

This tape removed part of my skin, I took photos to prove that this horrible tape left marks on both of my legs.
