Effective but uneven quality?
Bought Tough-Strips 20 one size to protect big toes after nails removed; they had the right pad size (edge to edge) and good stickiness plus not too difficult to remove. So far so good.
However the second box (UPC code 8137-004408) had three or four strips that came off much too easily - they just didn't stay in place. I'm fairly certain that this was not due to wet or otherwise difficult skin condition.
Today when I attempted to buy a third box, the only ones on the Shoppers shelf had narrow pads - not usable for this requirement.
Suggest you keep at least one version with a wide pad, at least 1" from side to side.

Failure to Adhere To Shaven and Dry Skin
Purchased Band-Aid Water Block Tough Strips (20). The adhesive compound used to get the bandage to stick to my skin (shaven and dry) was so weak that the bandage would generally fall off on application. No attemped readjustments of the bandage (i.e., pull off and put back on). The adhesive was that weak. The tear away strips on the back of the bandages was easy to remove, which may be a sign of a lack of adhesive. The skin area is not sensitive or delicate. Could not achieve a seal for wound due to poor adhesion. LOT #3371B.
The review page changed my star review from 1/5 to 5/5. That's odd... Although there is an edit option, I couldn't get it to stop changing my star rating.

Band Aid tough strips had absolutely no adhesive on them!
We have always been Band Aid brand supporters and believed that they were superior quality to other brands out there. That was UNTIL we purchased a large box of Band Aid brand Tough Strips and not one single band aid had adhesive on it! We tried one and thought, well that was weird. It isn’t sticky at all. Must have been a dud. Opened another, and it was the same. Randomly opened another half dozen and eventually every single band aid. And not one has adhesive on it. What a waste of money, and we were left without having a useful band aid. So disappointed in them and we are definitely hesitant to spend any more money on this product or brand. #bandaidsshouldstick #bleedingeverywhere #toughstripsarewimpy

Band-aid don't stick
The band-aid are not waterproof. It took about 10 seconds for the band-aid to fall once it was wet.

Adhesive stuck to my son’s skin
5 stars for waterproof but ZERO for ease of removal. It was as traumatic as him getting the wound.

Ultimate Protection for Active Lifestyles
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I absolutely love Band-aid Water block Tough Strips Bandages! For anyone who leads an active lifestyle, these are a must-have. Whether I'm hiking, swimming, or just running errands, these bandages stay put and provide excellent protection. The waterproof feature is fantastic; it really holds up, even after prolonged exposure to water. Plus, the all-one-size design makes them super convenient to use for any minor cuts or scrapes. With 20 in a pack, I always have plenty on hand for whatever life throws my way. They adhere securely without being too harsh on my skin, which is a huge plus. Overall, I couldn't be happier with these bandages. They've definitely earned their 5-star rating in my book!

Ripped my skin off!
These bandages do indeed hold up well, in fact, too well! When removing the bandaid slowly from my leg it took a piece of skin with it! Now along with my cut I have a skin that is weeping, red and bruised from the bandaid as well. The company claims this shouldn't happen but the evidence is in the reviews. I'm not the only one hurt by these bandages. I have photos of the cuts to prove it.

These really are waterproof !!
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I work in a flower shop so I get lots of small cuts on my hands and I have never been able to find a bandage that doesnt come off after 20min max of getting wet. Until I tried these. They are a game changer!! Along with being waterproof they are also slim and fit snug to the skin so I can still use my hands without the bandage getting in the way. I love this product and will be buying more to keep in the shop.
