I got this because I've been having knee issues due to an effusion. I did not think some fabric tape would do anything, so I went for OK Tape because it was a lot less than the more popular KT Tape. My knee honestly feels much better and more stable when I'm wearing kinesiology tape! I've since tried KT and this brand is actually better. It lasts longer, is way less expensive, and does the exact same thing! This brand frays a little bit around the edges and does leave some residue when removing, but it's not a huge issue for me. OK is pretty strong and gave me little bit of bruising when I removed it too early (like within the first day). Removal is a lot gentler after wearing it for 2-3 days and showers! I've accidentally placed the tape wrong and gotten it stuck to itself, and it still lasted for days after moving the tape. I was a little bit worried I would get a bad reaction because the description says it uses " acrylic glue based medical grade adhesive" and I suspect I may have an acrylate allergy from gel nails, but my skin has not gotten itchy, blisters, etc. Read more
Works great and nice color, if you cut the corners to make them round then it lasts multiple hours, i use it for sports (wrestling) and never had any problems. A little hard to get off but that means it’s more durable 😁. Also easy to put on and very stretchy. Read more
Of off all the kinesiology tapes I've tried, I feel that this is a good value for the price if you're looking for lighter support. It has a fairly decent stick. It will stay on for 2-3 days if you use best application practices (watch some PT videos to see demonstrations of good tape handling and application techniques). Ideally apply it to clean skin, don't touch the sticky side, but the paper backing. Once it's on, keep it from rubbing against fabric and other stuff too much. It's not so sticky that it takes off a ton skin removing it, so it's practical if you're looking to take it off and reapply every couple or few days. If your skin is sensitive or thinner, you can notice some irritation, so take it off carefully and give your skin time to regrow before needing to remove more. You might try some oil or lotion and slowly work the edges (like using peanut butter to get gum out of hair), but you'll want to wash that well off before applying more tape. It's a thinner fabric, so offers less support than a thicker fabric tape, but I notice some helpful support. I've found this to be good when I'm past the worst of an injury, but I want light support getting back into full activities. I would use a different, thicker and more supportive tape for a fresh injury or greater support. You can double it up, or stagger overlay to increase support. That isn't as ideal as one well placed strip because the tape sticks better to clean dry, skin than to itself. It has 2" marking block guides on the back for easily determining cut length. Read more
The KT tape works great. Easy to use and put on, very strong hold. I do suggest using wamr water like is says to take it off because it was ki da painful to take off. It helped relieve so of my pain but I was using it for support for a broken collarbone. Read more

Ok tape is about right. Didn’t stay on well and caused a dermatitis reaction. It did do the job though. Read more
