The Thumb Tape That Works as Hard as You Do
If you train regularly, you know the toll it takes on your hands. A few sets of deadlifts, pull-ups, or kettlebell swings and your thumbs start to feel every rep. Calluses build, skin tears, and suddenly your grip — the foundation of so much training — is the limiting factor.
That’s where a good roll of thumb tape can make a real difference. Whether you lift weights, do functional fitness, or take on the occasional CrossFit-style workout, the right tape protects your skin, supports your thumbs, and keeps you training comfortably.
Our Tearable EAB Thumb Tape is designed to do exactly that — and to make it quick and easy.
Strong, Stretchy and Effortlessly Simple
You can see in the video how easily our thumb tape stretches, wraps, and tears. It moulds to the shape of your thumb, staying secure even through long, sweaty sessions. There’s no need for scissors because it snaps cleanly by hand, leaving a neat edge every time.
Made from light, tearable elastic adhesive bandage (light EAB), this tape gives the perfect mix of support and flexibility. It protects against friction and calluses without feeling bulky or restrictive. Available in black, red and blue, it’s neat, grippy, and built to keep up with you — whether you’re pushing for a new PB or working through a tough conditioning circuit.
Why Good Thumb Tape Matters
If you’ve ever torn skin mid-workout, you know how frustrating it can be. (Check out this discussion of calluses over on the Peloton blog for tips on dealing with calluses that crack or tear.) Thumb taping for lifting and gym work isn’t just about comfort — it’s about performance and consistency. A quick wrap before you start helps prevent rips, cushions the grip, and protects your joints from strain.
That means fewer missed sessions, better lifts, and more confidence when it counts. It’s a small habit that pays off big.
We know there are other thumb tapes on the market, but we’ve focused on getting the details right: consistent stretch, a strong adhesive that holds even when you’re sweating or using chalk, and a smooth hand-tear finish. The result is simple, reliable, and made to perform in real-world training — from home gyms to CrossFit boxes and everything in between.
