Premium Elastic Bandage Wrap (6" 4 Pack) - Hook & Loop Fasteners at Both Ends - Latex Free Hypoallergenic Compression Roll - Reusable Bandages for Waist, Legs, Elbow & Knee Wrap

These 6" bandages have great elasticity, strong velcro fasteners, and hold up flawlessly in the washing machine. I definitely will purchase again, if and when needed. Even after multiple washes, they are still in 'like new' condition, though, so I do not know when I will need to re-purchase. Application: I had surgery on my foot and have to apply new dressings regularly. I have been changing the gauze dressings and bandages daily for several months. The original bandages I received from the hospital and from my surgeon have stretched out, and the elastic bands in the 4" and 6" bandages are frayed. These Hartmann and Dyna-Flex branded bandages have not withstood the repeated use and washings like the GT brand. These bandages have been performing without any problems. I like that I can increase the compression value of the bands by simply pulling or stretching them more while wrapping my foot and leg. I have a blood clotting disorder so these bandages perform as a means to secure dressings and gauze, but also to act in place of my compression stockings. The only downsides to the wraps, which are also their strengths, are their durability and elasticity, as noted. For the purpose of compression, I do not have a way to gauge the value of compression, as provided by my Juzo brand stockings, so I have to be careful while wrapping my legs to not apply too tightly. But, even with strong velcro fasteners at both ends, removing and re-wrapping the bandages throughout the day does not result in damaged, fuzzy or frayed material. So, technically, that wasn't even a downside to these bandages. They are not cheap, but cheapest can be most expensive in the end. The country of production origin is not listed on the individual wrappings of each bandage, nor on the plastic zipper bag they are stored in. GT Brand is a USA woman owned business, though, which can be found upon further research of the product and company. The cotton is produced in the United States, and I have not found information that states the manufacturing of the bandages has been outsourced from the USA. I'm a huge fan of this product and strongly encourage the purchase. Made in the USA*, woman owned business, quality control in the packaging and product construction, durability, and performance all easily qualify the bandages for a 5-star rating.

Very good quality. I needed support after surgery and these were easy to use, attached firmly and stayed put very well

Using to wrap my arms for newly-diagnosed lymphedema. This is cotton, and much cooler than using a synthetic fiber bandage. Once you get the hang of it, it's easy to wrap each arm. Velcro ends are easy to attach at wrist and ending at the upper arm. Each roll is long enough to cover the 22" (56 cm) from my wrist to armpit. I use the bandages at night so I don't have to buy and wear a compression sleeve during the day. It' not always enough for some women, but I'm hopeful. I would recommend this product.

I like these wraps....the only things I wish the company would do ...is stitch/sew the velcro better/ stronger to the material..its weak..it would probably take them just a few extra seconds to stitch it twice. Other than that , I love these wraps, they stretch nice , they are long enough, they aren't inchy and work great on wrapping sore knees or perhaps a thigh . Nice material and price is totally reasonable.

Have been using this bandage a few years now on different occasions and its still in decent condition. The quality is good and the velcro is still strong

My story (i'm 28): I pulled my abudctor muscle (groin muscle as some may call it) during soccer, and waited 3 weeks before playing. Played again after my recovery, and re-injured myself even further. After another month of recovery time - a friend of mine gave me one of these to try out. All I can say that these are amazing!!! Its a B to put it on (you probably want to do it in a bathroom with shorts down (for abductor muscle, to get it as close as possible to... ahem). These MOST CERTAINLY make a difference. When I put it on - i feel like i did before my injury! That being said - be careful. Don't overplay. Don't get cocky! And don't forget to warm up before games... which is why (most likely) all of us got this injury in the first place :( Quality: Just like with everything cloth/stretchy - these aren't a forever thing. They stretch out from velctro to ~10" out. On mine - the velcro part came loose (wasn't sewen on good enough - could use some stitches down the middle of velcro - a 6" stitch). That being said - i do like to wrap mine as tight as possible. That being said - they lasted me ~6 months, playing twice a week. Definitely worth the $5 - if it wasn't for these, I'd be on the bench :(

I have ordered these before. They are perfect for knees. Velcro closing works well.

I am downgrading my review after using these daily for just over two weeks. They are losing their elasticity, have started to fray and wrinkle up, and have long pulls/snags from the Velcro. I washed on hand wash cycle, cold water and in hosiery bag a couple of times. Air dry. While I hope not to have to use them much longer, if you are looking for long term use, and especially compression, you might consider other options. I really just needed coverage for incisions amd dressings, and some fabric under knee brace. —————— These are just like the one I got when had knee surgery a couple of weeks ago. I wanted a couple of more so that I could rotate and have spares when I wanted to wash one. Love the velcro at each end vs. separate tabs to secure. The wider size is great for leg/knee, the was well (make sure to folder over and secure velcro ends so it doesn't catch on itself, and they work well, whether you want to apply loosely or tight. Very pleased with these...

Thank you

goo bandage.

I use these in the film/tv industry to strap mics and mic packs to actors. The fabric is nice and thick, and holds up to repeated uses AND trips thru a washing machine (in a mesh bag). The velcro is high quality, and well attached to the stretch fabric. Can't speak to their use in the medical field, but if you're a soundie who is handy with a sewing machine, these make excellent, cheap, DIY ursa straps.
