How is the #287 tape different from Renfrew’s #188 or #388?

The #287 is made from a polyester/cotton blend, giving it a slightly softer feel and moderate rigidity. It’s designed as an economical option for practice or general clinic use, while the #188 and #388 offer heavier-duty support for high-performance taping.

Is this tape suitable for game-day applications?

Yes. Although it’s categorized as economical, #287 still offers dependable adhesion and strength for most athletic and rehab taping needs. Many teams use it for both practice and competition.
