The thing I hate most about duct tape, besides the fact that it sucks, is that it leaves behind goop. The second problem is that it’s not very flexible (think plastic vs cloth-backed bandaids). Gorilla Tape is good at holding things together, but it still leaves behind goop and is inflexible. My preferred EDC tape is gaffer tape, as it’s flexible, strong, and comes off cleanly. I just read about 3M’s “nuclear grade” duct tape which claims to come off clean. It looks rigid as any other duct tape, but at least it fixes my main quibble:
