Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Sparthos is my preferred k-tape. It sticks better than the much higher priced kinesiotape. Spartan has that long lasting quality that the others have lost, but at the same price.

Sustained a calf injury playing basketball. I have ehlers danlos syndrome, so my joints destabilize all the time. I no longer need sleeves and wear the tape whenever my knee needs it.

This tape stays on 3+ days with no irritation, comes off easily when you follow the directions and allows for a fuller range of motion. I even bathe with it on and it stays. It usually lasts 3-4 days to one week.



Cons

Its thin, like a bandaid. The adhesive on this tape makes me break out in raw itchy spots comparable to poison ivy. The type is not adhesive at all.

It's within the realm of possibility that i got a bad lot of tape, but i won’t order the jumbo roll again. It can't be returned or refunded. Waste of $. The tape is nothing like kt brand tape.

It is cheaper than kinesiotape and ktape but it works almost as well quality is very good lasts a long time holds up well


Perhaps as i can see from the photos with the complaints that the tape was not applied correctly


Do not blame the product when usedapplied improperly

Price


Works when applied as directed and the price is perfect


This is a great product and a great price

Competitiveness


It sticks better than the much higher priced kinesiotape and my patients have told me it feels better when compared to kt


Best among american kinesio tapesthese tapes are a must for those who exercise

    My wife tried it on her arm when she pulled it of her skin she noticed a reaction like rash

    So it is not the tape it is your skin that does not like the tape

    My lower back was so tender this morning i couldnt touch it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This is only because a sleep on flannel sheets the fuzziness can cause curling of the edges


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    During the day a kneehigh panty hose cut toe keeps my pants from curling the edges but this is only an issue with constant kneeling


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Check with your healthcare specialist to be sure you are correct in applying it or you can make it worse


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    A couple hours later my skin started burning and itching
