Prewrap is one of our most versatile products. Thanks to easy tearability and self-sticking power, it's a breeze to apply and take off. It's plush, comfortable and fully breathable allowing for all day wear, on its own or underneath other athletic tape products.
Apply it to high-friction areas such as toes, knuckles or the back of the heel before applying strapping tape or other rigid tapes to prevent blisters. Wrap some on your wrist before bracing with athletic tape to increase breathability and also make removal that much easier.
It's as easy as it gets.
Tear a single strip to length by hand with no scissors needed. Thanks to smooth and consistent unwinding, you can put it on right off the roll too.
Keeping the width of the tape flush with your skin, wrap Prewrap around the desired area, to the desired tightness, before applying rigid or stretch top over top as normal.
Not necessarily -SHIELD athletics tapes are comfortable and high-adhesive enough for all-day wear on their own.
However, it's still a step that both we and athletic trainers all over recommend, especially when consistently taping the same bodily location. More protection is always appreciated by skin!
Absolutely. Our foam is the perfect blend of strong, breathable and tearable, letting you rip a clean edged piece every time while still having tensile strength to make it through days of use.
The Essential Combo
Use SHIELD prewrap under athletic tape for comfortable bracing, hold and breathability.
