What type of KT Tape do I need?

As an athlete, you want to give your body the right support, whether that's to prevent injury, reduce pain or recover faster. KT Tape helps you do just that. Thanks to its elastic properties, it offers support without restricting your freedom of movement. But how do you know which variant suits you best? There are different types of KT Tape and in this blog we will help you make the right choice.

Why choose KT Tape?

KT Tape is not just any sports tape. Unlike traditional sports tape, which is often stiff and restrictive, KT Tape Tape moves with you. This means you can support your muscles and joints without being restricted in your movements. Moreover, the tape is breathable and water-resistant, meaning it stays on for several days, even during intense workouts, sweating or showering. It is an ideal solution for athletes who want to improve their performance without compromising on comfort.

Which type of KT Tape suits you?

There are several varieties of KT Tape and the choice depends on your activity level, skin type and specific needs.

If you are just starting to use sports tape or are looking for light support, KT Tape Original is a good choice. This tape is made of 100% cotton and feels soft on the skin. This makes it ideal for people with sensitive skin. The tape stays in place for one to three days on average and is suitable for daily use and light to moderate exercise.

For athletes who train intensively and are looking for a tape that lasts longer, there is KT Tape Pro. This tape is made of synthetic material that is stronger and more durable than cotton. As a result, it stays on for up to seven days, even in extreme conditions such as intense workouts, swimming or heavy exercise. It dries quickly and is water-resistant, making it perfect for athletes who need long-term and reliable support.

Do you need extra firm support, for example for long-term loading or recovery after an injury? Then KT Tape Extreme is a good choice. This type of tape has a stronger adhesive layer and stays put even under tough conditions. It offers maximum stability and helps you reduce pain and discomfort during prolonged physical exertion.

For specific knee problems, KT Tape Flex is ideal. This tape is specially designed to support joints and provide extra stability during movements. Thanks to a special technology, the tape stays firmly in place even during intensive activities that put extra pressure on the knees.

What should you look out for when choosing KT Tape?

The choice of KT Tape depends on your specific situation. If you have sensitive skin, KT Tape Original is a comfortable option. Do you train intensively and want the tape to stay on for days? Then KT Tape Pro or Extreme offers the best support. If you have specific complaints on your knees, then KT Tape Flex is the best choice. Also consider the conditions in which you exercise. If you train a lot in humid conditions or sweat a lot, then a water-resistant variant such as KT Tape Pro is a smart choice.
