I have been using Kinesiology tape for years and love it. It has helped me with leg and Achilles pain, shoulders, arms and neck pain too. I am pretty picky about Kinesiology tape and have found my favorite brand to be Hampton brand which comes in a big roll (2 inches wide by 135 feet long). It is $45. Comparing to this product, the cost of this product is $38 for four 3 inch wide by 15 inches for a total of 60 inches (5 feet long total). So you can see this is quite a bit more expensive than buying a bulk roll of tape. The unique thing about this product is that it is much wider than most kinesiology tape (3 inches vs. 2 inches), plus it is precut especially for the hip with 5 inches split down the middle. The corners are cut really nicely rounded. With a bulk roll you would have to cut specially for the split and round corners. The other thing is this is made specifically to target the hip with clear instructions on the back of the tape (step 1,2,3) with instruction on where and how to apply it. There is also an online video on this product page so you can learn how to do it properly with visual instruction. I love that! I have spent hours looking at kinesiology instructions online for various ailments, so this product really is a time saver. The quality of the product is superb too. It stays in place and has the elasticity I would expect from a professional quality kinesiology tape. It doesn’t leave a sticky residue after removing either. I am giving this a 5-star rating because it is good quality, functions well, easy to use, superior instructions, precut, etc. It is expensive, but I think very much worth it if you are looking to use Kinesiology tape on your hip. It is for someone who has never applied K-tape before. I would however recommend having someone like a friend or partner apply it. You can apply it yourself, but it will turn out better if you have someone do it for you - especially with the price, you don’t want to blow it on the application! Read more
This is Well-made product. The tape is very strong and has excellent holding ability. I’m using it on hip for pain and it is effective and providing stability. The application instructions are very good and insure proper adhesion. The only issue I had was once in place, it felt odd With certain movements and with seating. However, that is offset by the relief that it provides. This package includes four applications. It is pricey, but the instructions and the way it is constructed is more likely to ensure proper application than buying strips that you apply arbitrarily. What concerned me when I first got the package is that the end of the box was not properly secured. One of the inserts was sliding out of the opening. In other words, this was not a box packed inside of an Amazon box. It was the product box, that was also used as the shipping box. I immediately checked to make sure that nothing had slipped out from the end. This is a shortcoming in packaging because if it’s not put inside of another box, you could lose something. Read more
For what it does and the cost for what you get, I don't think these are really worth it. They do exactly what you'd expect but are very pricy for the 4 strips you get. I'd probably just go buy some uncut tape and tailor it to your individual needs rather than buy this precut. Read more
Works great! Comes with very simple instructions and is easy to apply by yourself. It also sticks really well so just like when you're unrolling some duct tape. It continued to stick to me for the entire day, even on my hairy legs. Read more
Didn't work as well as I thought. Read more
Simple to apply and works well Read more
My daughter is a dedicated cross-country runner and recently experienced hip pain after her meets. We decided to try kinesiology precut tapes specifically designed for the hips, and they have been a game-changer! These tapes are wider than other options, making them easy to apply. The tape's stretch allows for complete mobility while sticking exceptionally well even in the heat. My daughter finds them incredibly comfortable during her races, and they have significantly reduced her post-race pain. We couldn't be happier with this product's performance and the relief they provide! Read more
I didn't realize that this pre-cut Kinesiology tapes were for hips only and that it only has 4 pre-cut tapes but still can't believe the price, which I think it way too high. The pre-cut tape appears to be very high quality though and large in size but I think I still prefer the Kinesiology tape rolls that I can cut and apply in different body parts, without limited to just hips like this one. ** DISCLAIMER: I received this product for free through Vine program in exchange for my honest opinion, and that is what I have offered here. I'm not a "give everything 5 stars" person and I only give 5 stars to products that exceeds expectation or provides exceptional values so I hope this was helpful. Read more
