About Earthtone Sports

We only truly realize how much we love a sport when we are forced to take a break. Earthtone™ is a small business founded by two climbers who constantly deal with rotator cuff injuries, tight IT bands, and unstable knees. Yes, it s👎🏽cks. ​ We know how frustrating and devastating it is when you can only watch others try their best and push their limits. THAT USED TO BE US. ​ During our rehab journey, we learned to use kinesiology tape from our trusted physical therapist. We started to tape up during climbing - first on the injured shoulder as a reminder, and later on imbalanced muscles and joints to prevent overstraining. These small, stretchy pieces of fabric benefitted us tremendously, with just one problem: either the tape wasn’t sticky enough, or it would rip a small piece of our skin off. ​ So, we decided to search for a better tape that balances performance and comfort. That’s how we came up with COMFORT!™ and BOOST!™ - medical-grade kinesiology tapes with two levels of adhesion to suit different skin types and sports needs. ​In the athletic community, we often see that those who love the sport the most get hurt the most. Being forced to pause due to an injury is not fair. At Earthtone™, we aim to raise awareness of sports injuries and promote injury prevention, so we all can stay in the game and enjoy our sports longer. ​ Welcome to Earthtone™. Welcome to a world where passion never quits.
