Great tape!
Great tape does a good job of stabilising joints. I have rheumatoid arthritis and my knees give out before the rest of my body does so I thought I try this type for my couch to 5K. A rookie error the first time round meant that the tape didn’t stick particularly well on my first attempt on my left leg however the tape on my right knee has been on for four days now and weathered many showers and still supporting my knee. For £12 you can’t really go wrong 20 strips is about the size of a roll of tape anyway and so I bought another box. I’m interested to see how long the tape lasts for. Yes you could spend less with knee braces or supports however the problem with them is that often you are always pulling them up halfway through your workout and decent ones can be very bulky.

Great stuff, better than the rest!
Far superior to the other tapes on the market. It's stretchy, sticky and works great for what I need it for! I find that if I exercise the moment that I put the tape on, it's more likely to come off quickly so I like to put it on about an hour prior to exercise. Lasts a long time if I use it this way.

Good support for knees
Recommended by a friend, tried this for my dodgy knee, we do a fair bit of walking and this really helps. Only issue is I have trouble sticking it down properly and parts start to come away. Maybe more practice. I bought this size as a trial but will probably get a bigger role now. I had an elastic knee support which helps but the tape is a lot better. You can keep it on in the shower so lasts longer than one wear, just need to ensure edges are all stuck down properly.

Waste of money- doesn't stick!!!
Very disappointed in this product. I have used such tapes previously and find that this one simply does not stick to the skin. I have followed the video on the KT website to ensure that the tape was used correctly. Other products seem to stay on for days and have to be peeled off. I wrongly assumed that buying this brand would result in better quality but i was wrong. Neo G NeoTape Kinesiology Tape is a far superior product. This KT tale was a waste of money and I will definitely not buy again.

This tape is the best that I have tried. Holds for 3-4 days and is waterproof in the shower. Highly recommend.

Le maintien est correct uniquement si la partie est propre et lisse (obligation de raser la partie concernée). Les vidéos sont très claires et permettent de positionner les KT Tape seul.

I tore my PCL, meniscus, and completely tore my ACL in my knee back in 2012 as a result of a car accident. I have struggled with my knee and have had a ACL reconstruction, PCL repair twice, meniscus repair twice, and a lateral release of my knee cap due to a tendon being too tight and my knee cap not moving in the correct place resulting in severe pain. The lateral release has definitely helped with my pain, but as of late I have been getting excruciating pain when walking that hits right in the middle of my knee and radiates all throughout and brings me down to the ground most of the time. I have struggled with getting my knee cap to cooperate in the healing process even a year later and it still wants to go to the side when flexed (because of the lateral release). The anti inflammatory pills, huge knee braces, icing, and PT exercises haven’t seemed to help. This product has mixed reviews, but I decided to try it based off the fact that the reviews for knees seemed good. I applied it in a way to keep my kneecap from going to the side when flexed. It is not a complete fix for my issue, but I have to say as soon as I put it on and started walking around I could tell such a difference! The pain is much less severe, and it feels a lot less like a constant thought of “is this step about to take me out” and more like “oh I can keep doing things and not think about it”. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone with knee pain from injuries that is looking for something to help on more active days! I needed to share this ASAP, so I haven’t had it on for long. I noticed a lot of people complaining of peeling, but it looks as though those strips were applied too stretched out and that is why they are peeling. I completely removed the backing, then I stuck the strip at one point with my knee straight out and gave it a LIGHT stretch to compensate for bending my knee, and stuck the rest of the strip down. So far, there is no sign of peeling. I will update my review when I have worn these for a few days. Overall, I am so very happy with my purchase! Update: I am remodeling my kitchen, so at the end of the day after lots of bending, getting up and down, being in weird positions, I was having some issues with my knee and did have a sharp pain that took me down. My chiropractor told me to apply differently (updated pic: bend knee and apply strips in a V shape around knee, then straighten knee and add a strip snug below knee cap). This pic is 3 days after wearing the tape, no peeling! I will note that I have not submerged it in water at all though. I have not have any of the sharp pains at all! I still stand by it being a great tool to use!
