Broke my toe and the Dr. used this stuff to "buddy tape" it to the adjacent toe. Tried to find it in the local drug stores, but they don't stock it. One well-known drug store chain had their own store-branded version that sold for $5/roll (on sale), normally $7.29/roll ... very pricey! (plus it only comes in boring tan, not the multiple colors like this product).
Tape is stretchy & sticks to itself, but not to your skin. Doesn't come off in the pool or in the shower. Easily cuts with scissors when it's time to remove.
If you're always putting band-aides on your kids, this stuff would be good to have around. Now that I have some, I'll probably find other uses for it too.
This stuff is the real deal, and the price is right, especially if you can get the free shipping.
Exactly what I was looking for - these are the same brand of bandage my podiatrist uses to "buddy tape" my broken toe. I use these daily to keep a healing pinky toe with a displace fracture in position and somewhat protected. Love the assorted colors and find that these bandages stay stuck when they need to and are easy to remove as well. The fabric is the perfect thickness - not to thin, not too thick and totally easy to work with. You can tear pieces off of the rolls, but I snip with a pair of scissors to get a good clean cut. (As an FYI, I had purchased a roll of plain white tape of the same width made by a well-known bandage company that was a hassle to work with and was too thick. It was because of those reasons I went in search of the tape used by my doc!)
These flex bandages are just like you get at the Dr's office. Flexible, stay in place and non-irritating.
I've had surgery on both feet involving 6 total toes, and this has been a lifesaver for me. The similar products sold in CVS and Walgreens are actually stickier than this, impossible to get off, and I just didn't care for their version of Co-Flex. This product is the same as what my doctor uses in the office, and the fact it comes in multiple colors made it a little more fun...as much fun as one can have wrapping toes. LOL. It is also less expensive to buy in bulk here than one or two rolls at a time at the pharmacy. I bought this selection twice. Worked perfectly.
I love this wrap, it's a nice size at one inch, and the rolls are easy to tear even with one hand. It's very stretchy and sticks to itself very well. The colors just make it a little more fun. I do some sculpture and carving, and I use this to protect my thumb from my knife so that I can carve toward myself without the repeated touching my thumb with the blade causing me pain. Great product!

Description
Co-flex adheres to iself. Co-flex can be quickly applied in a continous motion and torn at desired length.
This bandage works well on fingers and toes as it sticks to itself it and stays in place. We have also used this with gauze to wrap around the dogs leg, it stayed nicely on the leg and did not rip out her fur when it was removed. This is also a great wrap for tool handle grips to add better grip or increase the diameter of the grip. My daughter used this on her field hockey stick grip also.
This is the best bandage out there. It is somewhat soft, stretchy and keeps its hold. I had finger surgery and it was awesome to wrap around it to support the finger and keep bandage on. (Hospital used it too.. Just bought more so I could change it). It got dirty quickly.
GREAT STUFF!! Pricy but worth it!! Does a great job for all kinds of bandages. I will buy more!!
We use this to keep our daughters pulse oximeter on her toe at night. The different colors allow her to have choices. The tape can be torn by hand which is nice and sticks to itself when slightly stretched which basically meets our requirements. Sometimes after a night, it can be hard to find where the tape starts and ends but that is a good problem to have.
use them for soccer and bandage wrap for my dog. its good how it sticks to itself.
