Stays on well, different material

I did a test upon receiving this to see if it stayed on as long as other brands that I like without any problems. It stayed on until I pulled it off for church after 48 hours and the edges did not curl off. It also did not cause significant irritation or itching to my skin like a few brands have. However, it is made of a different material than every other kinesiology tape that I have used or seen. Whereas the others have a cotton-like appearance, this is made of a material like spandex / lycra - think of the shiny bike shorts from the 80's. This causes it to be significantly stretchier than the other tapes I have used, which means that the performance could be different since it will move more easily with the skin and not pull the skin away from the muscle as strongly. Until I know how this works for me, I will most likely use it in a few longer practices until I know if it is effective or not. If it works, it is a very good value for the price, but until it has been tested, I wouldn't use this in a performance situation just to save a few dollars.
