Try it. You won’t be disappointed
Good quality tape. Had for first class with using it yesterday and did no gi and gi, stayed after to roll as well- about 2 1/2 hours in total. It help up great. Didn’t slip or come loose. I sweat A LOT and it didn’t effect the tape at all. The .2” is a perfect thickness for me with X taping- enough to stabilize and prevent injury but still small enough to get in tight for sleeve and collar holds. Taking it off is a bit kore challenging than other tapes, but that’s an easy trade off for the quality and hold of the tape. I’m definitely gonna buy more of this. It beat the other big name brands I’ve used.

Can't go without this product
I've used regular medical tape in the past, but it doesn't compare. I've been training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for 12 years now. After years of gripping the constant and repetitive strain wore on my joints. At one point I wasn't able to make a full fist from the swelling and pain. When i finally started to wrap my fingers it took years to find a product that would hold up to the demands of rolling/sparring. Tape was either not strong enough, not waterproof, not sticky enough, or any myriad of failures.Finally, here comes Monkey Tape. I was shocked at how totally different it was than anything on the market. You can feel the texture right away. It's strong, flexible, will not come off or even move during intense sparring sessions. Also, very waterproof and of course sweat proof. After a year of use my finger joints were healed even though I never stopped training.I would recommend this product to anyone even if you haven't experienced any joint damage. Watch youtube vids on how to properly wrap and only use this product.

Best finger tape for BJJ!
I've been training BJJ for twenty years. This is by far the best tape I have used on my fingers. I was sceptical the first time because a cool front moved in the same day I tried it and I wasn't nearly as hot and sweaty as ususal, so I didn't know if it was really all that good. The next day I used and left it on after training to see how much longer it would hold up. It stayed on through a shower, repeated hand washings, and two more hours of training the following day. Great product!

Great BJJ tape
Normally I wouldn’t tape over my joints for BJJ but I had a cut open up right on there due to the winter and I wanted to be considerate and not leave blood residue on my partners. The tape worked great. The .3” was just the right thickness to tape a couple loops and it didn’t unravel for the whole duration of the class. Obviously the underside started to scrunch up from the grabbing of the gi but that was to be expected. Worked out great would def recommend if you’re looking to tape up your fingers for BJJ

Such a love hate relationship
So this tape truly does not come off when you wear it, which is great. Most other tapes become loose or just come off during training. However, it will leave a big adhesive mess behind on your fingers for you to pick at and clean up with hot water later. It is also incredibly hard to unroll cleanly into strips because of the never ending fraying from each side that occurs.Basically, if you have some patience, this tape will do its job. It's just annoying to put on and difficult to take off.

Great for Connective Tissue Disorder
I got this tape in the 0.2 width and am so thrilled about it! I have a connective tissue disorder that makes me hyperextend and dislocate my joints easily, so I’m using this to keep them in place so that I can play my bass! I’ve used metal splints on my fingers in the past but they always dig into my skin and make playing instruments difficult due to the metal hitting the strings. This tape allows me some give, breathability, and most importantly, stability. I had been using medical tape, but lack of air flow made my joints sweaty and itchy, and the width was always far too big. Monkey tape is the perfect solution!

Adhesive quality
I don’t usually write reviews, but I have been searching for a tape like this that would stay on all day. I work in childcare and I’m constantly washing my hands. This is by far the best adhesive tape that will stay on ALL DAY!

Sticky and Effective
Picked up some of the pink ones so I would know if anyone was using my tape. Never had issues with painful finger joints before but taping has helped my return to BJJ.The only issue is I got .3 and should have got .5 right away. The price is a bit steeper than I would consider ideal, especially if you have to tape several fingers but the hold is solid.I'll try the .5 next time I order but may end up switching to classic 1.5" athletic tape and simply tear it to save some money.
