Kinesiology Tape Bulk Roll - Sports Therapeutic Kinetic Athletic Recovery - Breathable Water Resistant Strong Adhesive Pain Relief Therapy

I love the products

This is absolutely the best value you can get for kinesiology tape. I am an elite runner, former pro soccer player, and overall sports and fitness enthusiast - which means I use a lot of kinesiology tape. I use tape mostly on my lateral right knee due to an extremely stubborn case of ileo-tibial syndrome (runner's knee). I require a first strip running along lateral aspect of my leg (IT band), with no stretch, and two 45 degree strips at full stretch about 2 inches from the tibial condyle. That said, this is why I think this is the best value in kinesiology tape:(1) It is tougher than the expensive brands. After running about 9 to 12 miles, the 45 degree strips, at full stretch, are still intact. The glue is firm and there is no crack in the tape. Actually, I have used the same tape for more than 108 miles and it was still intact and performing at 100%. I remove them after several days to maintain good hygiene, not because they are compromised. So how does it compare with the expensive brands? The most I have gotten from the expensive brands, without cracking or peeling, is 12 miles.(2) It adheres extremely well. I had to use pre-tape adhesive spray when I used the expensive brands, but that is not necessary now that I am using this tape. I don't like pre-tape adhesive because it makes my body sticky. I also don't like it because it is an additional expense that adds up fast. Just make sure you complete your taping at least about half an hour prior to your activity and this tape will hold and last for more than a week (if you would want to go that long without washing the skin under it). If you have been using the expensive brands you will notice immediately that this tape adheres better.(3) Price. I hope the vendor doesn't increase that price now that I'm mentioning that you get a LOT OF TAPE for relatively less money. Take a few minutes to compare the amount of tape you are getting for a dollar, versus the other vendors, and you will agree with me that this is the best value in kinesiology tape by a vast margin. I hope they don't increase the price now.

If you apply K Tape before skiing or workouts and remove it once you are done, this stuff works great. You can set the tape just as you would the KR brand tape. This is like their cotton version in performance. The roll is cut pretty good but not perfect so you have to snap it off the roll quickly. It does leave some residue if you leave it on more than half a day and the edges sometimes pull up inside your boot with a good wool ski sock on. Never had a loss of support this season on the mountain. I would give it 5 stars if the cut on the roll was just a little bit better. I just yank it while holding the piece left on the roll to prevent pulling the tape off the paper. It cuts easy for special applications and didn't leave any marks or cause irritation while skiing very hard all day on several occasions. I am using it now for trail hiking and knee support. This is a good economical option if you use a ton of tape Like I do.

I purchased this product based on price and bulk. I had used another brand and wanted more for a better price. Which I acheived when I bought this item. I have now used this product a few times. It doesn't seem to stick as well as the other product I had previously used. The corners peel up easily. I have even cut the corners rounded in an attempt to help with this issue. But just seems less adhesive than other product. The other product stayed on for a full seven days with no sign of peeling. The few times I have used this product it starts to peel the day of application and only lasts three days.So in comparison I don't feel this product to be as good. But good price for volume. Which this item is approximately four to one in price of the product I had previously used. So ultimately can get twice the use out of this bulk pack for same money.Will purchase this product again.

I got this tape (2 rolls) in record time. I used to purchase the standard KT tape sold in stores that are pre-cut (10 Inches) strips. I have posterior tibialis tendonitis and plantar fasciitis so I need a lot of tape. I paid between $10 and $15 per box in drug stores or Walmart. This tape is very good and quite sticky. It lasts at least several days per use. The value of this tape is the fact that it appears to equal the quality of the pre-cut sections but costs far less when you run the numbers. This roll is 114.8 feet whereas it would take 7 boxes of the other pre-cut tape (10 in. pre-cut strip X 20 strips = 16.6 feet). 7 boxes at 16.6 ft. = 116.2 feet. This tape is the most economical at 114.8 ft. at $45 versus 116.2 ft. at $70 to $105 for 7 boxes. Also, I like to cut the length of my tape with less waste that I had with the pre-cut strips.

I have used rock tape for years, when money is tight though I have bought some knock-off brands.After reading all the positive reviews here on amazon and in dire need of a bigger role I thought I would risk it.The Pro's or shall I say pro-The glue sticks much better than rock tape or kinesio tape.The ConsThe fabric is so poor it loses it's hold after 24 hours max. I am currently taping for hip bursitis and my psoas.Rock tape will last 4 days if I baby the tape spots since the glue doesn't hold as well.This holds for 24 hours and then I can feel the pain coming back because the tape is no longer holding as it should, but removal is a beast because the adhesive is honestly really great. You can even tell its weak tape because it wrinkles up. Rocktape is smooth and holding tight up to 4 days. it's just the tape is peeling on edges because of adhesive.If you have a mild injury this may work for you, but if you only need it for a day or so getting it off will be very painful.I will finish the roll, but will not be re-purchasing. Its to painful to be re-taping every day because the tape is inferior.
