EMPOWER YOUR MOVEMENT
KINESIOLOGY TAPING
BWAS™
ULTIMATE FUNCTIONAL FABRIC
Every athlete deserves better protection.
WaveWear is a highly functional performance wear developed over many years of research to apply ‘kinesiology taping (sports taping)’ via a body-mapping system. WaveWear provides a comfortable, refreshing and light fit without excessive compression while offering joint and muscle support. WaveWear combines the best of both worlds (compression wear and kinesiology taping) without compromising the freedom of movement.
Kinesiology Tapes only work if they are sticky. That's why we developed BWAS™, the innovative adhesive silicone technology. With the sticky silicone, you can now enjoy the benefits of kinesiology taping while you're in compression wear.
FITI Standing Posture, Sitting Posture
Pressure Test
Standing Posture
Sitting Posture
We conducted a pressure comparison test for sitting and standing postures at FITI Testing & Research Institute.
The result showed that WaveWear had the largest difference between pressure measured at the sitting and standing postures, by about threefold.
It means that WaveWear's built-in adhesive silicone supports joints well (shown by the greatest pressure measured in the bent position), but less pressure in the standing posture means that WaveWear is comfortable (least pressure) when the joint is not in action.
Lower Limb Function Evaluation Test
This experiment compares the WaveWear adhesive silicone knee sleeve and a knee sleeve of a third party manufacturer. All variables other than WaveWear's adhesive silicone are controlled. After ten days of the experiment, the result showed:
The group that wore WaveWear Knee Sleeve saw a 13% improvement in lower limb function.
Also, the WaveWear product increased lower limb function by 8% more, compared to the control group (the third-party product). The result here signifies that WaveWear product is effective even by medical standards.
OPTIMAL EFFICIENCY
Injury Prevention
The built-in adhesive silicone (BWAS) holds the joints and muscles in place, preventing injury without hindering movement.
Enhanced Endurance
As shown with blood testing, WaveWear reduces lactic acid, the cause of muscle fatigue, and is excellent for faster recovery.
Optimal Pressure
More pressure isn't always better for your muscles and joints, or your performance because excessive pressure causes discomfort and interferes with blood flow. That's why WaveWear has perfected the appropriate pressure for performance and comfort through body-mapping, sticking to less than 4 kPa (30 mmHg) for key points of your body.
BWAS™ ("Bio Waved Adhesive Silicone")
Innovative BWAS™—the World’s first adhesive silicone technology—sticks onto the skin and acts on joints and muscles to provide a hassle-free kinesiology muscle taping effect.
Semi-Permanent Usage
Washing WaveWear’s easily restores the stickiness of its silicone taping. BWAS™ has passed the official washing test and can be used semi-permanently through many washing cycles. If you don't have time, simply use alcohol wipes to remove dirt on the adhesive silicone.
Medical-Grade Silicone
WaveWear’s BWAS™ is made of safe medical-grade silicone and is tested for skin irritation and cell toxicity. WaveWear is more than a perfect replacement for kinesiology tapes as some people report skin irritation from using them.
No Adhesive Residue
Unlike kinesiology tapes, WaveWear’s BWAS™ leaves no adhesive residue on the skin after usage. You can enjoy the kinesiology taping effect free from the hassle of removing the adhesive residues on your skin.
Semi-Permanent Usage
Washing WaveWear’s easily restores the stickiness of its silicone taping. BWAS™ has passed the official washing test and can be used semi-permanently through many washing cycles.
Semi-Permanent Usage
WaveWear’s BWAS™ is made of safe medical-grade silicone and is tested for skin irritation and cell toxicity.
ULTIMATE FABRIC FOR FUNCTIONALITY
We don't compromise when it comes to materials.
That's our fabric is ultra-thin, feather-light, super soft and stretchy, offering the comfort and support you need.
Multi-directional Stretch
Unlike regular fabrics that stretch one or two ways, WaveWear’s functional fabric stretches in 4 directions to conform to the wearer’s movement and provide better mobility and comfort.
Breathable
WaveWear's fabric offers fantastic breathability (82mm/s, as tested by the Korea Apparel Testing & Research Institute). Even the silicone taping part is as breathable as cotton (81%), ensuring a cool and dry fit.
UV Protection
WaveWear's UV50+ fabric protects your skin from UV radiation. This was verified by the Korea Apparel Testing & Research Institute (KATRI); WaveWear blocks 99.9% of UV radiation to protect the user's skin.
