What Is Football Sock Tape?

Football sock tape, also known as shin guard retainer tape, sports sock tape, or cohesive sock wrap, is commonly used by players to secure spikes, and shin guards during games and training.

When players run fast, there is a risk that  spikes, and shin guards will fall off, which can affect performance and even cause serious physical injury. Therefore, wrapping  spikes, and shin guards with shin guard retainer tape is an essential pre-game preparation for players. Especially football and hockey players.

Football players have incredible explosive power when kicking the ball. If they accidentally kick someone’s leg, it can cause significant damage to both parties, from swelling to fractures. Cohesive wrap can firmly secure the shin guards and increase cushioning to minimize this injury.

In addition to sock wraps, football players often use football turf tape to protect their arms from turf burns.
