KT Tape Original is our breathable cotton kinesiology tape, designed to relieve pain and support muscles, joints and tendons* through everyday activity and workouts. The elastic core gives strong support without restricting comfort or range of motion.
It stays in place for 1 to 3 days through showers, humidity, cold and even the pool. Each roll has 20 pre-cut strips with rounded corners, ready to apply straight out of the box.
Apply to clean, dry skin for the best hold. If you have sensitive skin, test a small piece with no stretch on tougher skin, such as the knee or forearm, first.
*Not clinically proven for all injuries.

Knee support
This makes it so much easier to continue my daily activity without bulky support braces. It lasts about 3 days when I apply correctly. So glad this is available.

Help for an older athlete
As an older athlete (76 and playing tennis 3-4x/wk), I don’t want to be sidelined with injuries. The KT tape pro sticks, stays in place, and keeps the injured muscles supported and allows me to continue to play even when in recovery mode.

Great Tape.
I LOVE your tape. I have used it for years. It has helped me recover from strains and plantar fasciitis. My job keeps me very active and I need to be able to keep going. Thank you soooo much. I also love your application videos. They are very easy to understand.

It works!
I love KT tape. I have runners knee and been tapping about a year. I only tape for runs and remove it in the shower. Helps me keep up my milage with no pain. Highly recommend!

Doesn't stay stuck
I'm a very active guy and I thought that the tape would last at least 2 nights on me. I sadly was mistaken and somehow the tape is coming off by the end of my day. I used other brands, but my skin is very sensitive and they gave me permanent burn scars where I applied them. KT Tape doesn't burn me, but it will not stay on me.

Hi Darin, thank you so much for reaching out and bringing this to our attention. I apologize that you have been dissatisfied with the adhesive recently. We are happy to hear that our product is compatible with your skin and would like to do all we can to help make your tape last longer. From the photos you posted, it looks like most of the rolling is happening in your hand/wrist area. We have found that this type of area with a ton of usage, washing, and more oils from the palm, that the tape has a harder time staying perfectly in place. If a corner starts to peel off, we recommend cutting that corner off and let the rest of the strip remain adhered! Tips for longer wear: 1. Prep the skin by cleaning with rubbing alcohol and let dry completely prior to application. 2. Apply tape well before any anticipated moisture or activity – the adhesive needs at least one hour to adhere fully. 3. Be sure not to over-stretch the strips, and place the first and last two inches of each strip with no tension at all.

I was able to finish my 5k
I didn’t stretch before running and got a bad case of runners knee. I wanted to complete my 5k in time. So I stretched every day, foam rolled, scraped. And the pain went away. I wanted to be able to run without fearing it would return so I used KT tape- absolutely no pain. And I was able to run for longer, incredible
