Troubleshooting
Tape not sticking well
Ensure skin and socks are clean and dry before application. Avoid applying over lotions or sweat. If applying over shin guards, ensure the guard surface is also clean.
Skin irritation
Do not over-tighten the tape. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Test a small area first if you have sensitive skin.
Tape residue left on skin
While designed to be non-marking, some residue may occur. Gently remove with a damp cloth, soap and water, or a mild oil-based cleanser.
Shin guard moving during activity
Ensure sufficient tape is used to secure the entire perimeter of the shin guard. Apply tape both around the guard and slightly onto the leg/sock for a more secure fit. Do not over-tighten.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To use, unroll the desired length of tape and apply it firmly around the top of the sock or shin guard. Ensure the tape adheres well to the skin or fabric. For shin guards, tape securely over the guard and onto the leg or sock to prevent any movement. It is recommended to apply the tape to clean, dry skin for best adhesion.
Compatibility: This tape is specifically designed for sports use, compatible with most standard athletic socks and shin guards. It is intended for external use on skin and sports equipment.
Care: Store the tape rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the end of the roll is secured to prevent it from unravelling. Clean any minor residue from skin with mild soap and water if necessary.
