Frequently Asked Questions
What sock tape do footballers use?
Most footballers use either 19mm or 38mm adhesive sock tape to secure their socks over shin pads. 19mm is the most common width for standard sock tape wrapping. Precision sock tape is widely used at grassroots and club level across the UK.
How many rolls of sock tape does a football team need?
A squad of 16 to 18 players typically uses one to two rolls per match day. A pack of 10 rolls provides supply for five to ten match days or multiple training weeks, making it practical for club-level buying.
What is the difference between 19mm and 38mm sock tape?
19mm is a narrower tape suitable for standard sock wrapping around the shin pad area. 38mm is a wider tape that provides a broader, more secure wrap. Both perform the same function.
Can sock tape be applied directly to skin?
Sock tape should ideally be applied over the sock rather than directly to skin to avoid irritation. If applied directly to skin, use a protective underwrap between the tape and the skin.
Can you use sock tape instead of shin guard stays?
Many players use both. Shin guard stays provide ongoing grip under the sock, while sock tape provides strong adhesion from the outside. Using both together gives maximum shin pad security throughout the session or match.
