This product is a non-elastic strapping tape with a strong adhesive, constructed from 100% cotton fabric. As a hiker, I’m afflicted with chronic terrible posture, and a general full-body laziness whenever I come back from the trail. If you discover a rip in your tent, a snag on your puffy coat, or the soles on your shoes suddenly separating, Luekotape is there to help. When I got home removed my socks I found the Leukotape had leaked adhesive from skin side to the outside exactly where the hot spot was.

If you have a local Dr or Dentist, maybe you could stop in and ask if they would save a few for you?If you always develop blisters in the same place when running or hiking, pre-tape your feet with Leukotape P. If you're experiencing high-friction areas beyond your feet, Leukotape can also help prevent chafing there too (think below your arm pits, between your thighs, etc. Leukotape is the beloved backpacking hack that stops hot spots in their tracks and keeps feet happy when you need them most.

Some leukotape brands contain natural rubber latex and may cause an allergic skin reaction if you have sensitive skin. The high adhesion of zinc oxide tape makes it a favourite amongst hikers and endurance athletes who would need the tape to remain sticky for long periods. If you don't wish to carry around a big roll of leukotape, you can wrap a section around a hollowed out and cut-in-half writing pen or wrap some around a lighter.This sports tape is made from Rayon which is a man-made fabric (much stronger than traditional cotton tapes) covered with a zinc oxide adhesive. Fixomull stretch's elasticity and non-slip hold means that it is outstanding in terms of dressing fixation on joints and frequently-moved body parts. Check once you have put on your shoes and socks that the tape is not too tight to prevent blood flow and not too loose that the tape forms creases.

I bought at some point another quite robust textile tape for a try – adhesive does not bleed through, but also the adhesion is waaaay worse. It does not take much — even the “back” side of label paper (usually where there is some product branding) is paper-ish enough that the tape will stick to it some and be compromised. Fixomull Stretch is a wide area adhesive tape, especially suitable for use on frequently mobile and highly contoured parts of the body. It will adhere securely and reliably to the skin on your feet, even under strain or if your feet are wet and sweaty. Ensure there are no gaps or creases between the tape and your skin, and never fully encircle your foot as it may restrict blood flow.It’s awkward to carry a bulky roll of Leukotape P, so most people carry strips of it stuck to release paper, the shiny paper that adhesive mailing labels come on. The d3 Rigid Strapping Tape is an extra-strong premium strapping tape, able to fully support joints under high-stress; especially for high-impact and contact sports as it remains in place. The HT Light Rip Elastic Adhesive Bandage (EAB) is a hand tear-able sticky and lightweight bandage that is used for mild compression but more often holding something in place, like an ice pack, a lifting block or a dressing pad. Hello, I have found out that any time I re-roll Leukotape onto itself, the non-adhesive side ends up retaining a significant amount of adhesive when unrolled, and exibits the behavior Jake has described.
