- HOLD UP SOCKS
Tape your socks just above your shin pads and they’ll hold strong for the entire game. Thousands of players use SPORTTAPE Sock Tape every weekend.

FAQ
Have a question not answered here?
- WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOCKTAPE AND INSULATION TAPE?
Our SOCK TAPE is made from a PVC specially chosen for use in sport. It stretches to 175%, allowing space for muscle expansion beneath the tape when playing sport. This prevents over-compression that can reduce blood flow known as ‘tourniquet’.
- IS SOCK TAPE WATERPROOF?
Yes, SOCK TAPE is made from a waterproof PVC so it will hold steady no matter the conditions.
The glue is not waterproof though, so it’s not suitable for applications in submerged water.
- CAN SOCK TAPE BE RE-USED?
Unfortunately SOCK TAPE is currently designed for single use only.
- WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF I APPLY SOCK TAPE INCORRECTLY?
Due to the nature of the tape if applied incorrectly you can inhibit blood flow. Therefore we would always recommend that you check circulation post application and during activity.
- WHAT ARE THE FA RULES ON SOCK TAPE?
The FA rules state that any tape or any material applied or worn externally must be the same colour as that part of the sock it is applied to or covers. Shinguards must be made of a suitable material to provide reasonable protection and covered by the socks.
Our SOCK TAPE comes in 9 colours and will help keep your socks over your shin pads.
- WHAT TAPE DO FOOTBALLERS USE ON THEIR SOCKS?
Footballers use 2 main tapes on their socks, SOCK TAPE and SOCK WRAP (otherwise known as COHESIVE). Each serves a different purpose. SOCK TAPE holds up socks, whilst SOCK WRAP keeps shin pads in place and bridges the gap between a cut off sock and the team sock.
