When playing sports, especially those that require a lot of running and rapid changes in direction, grip socks provide an extra layer of stability for the feet. This allows athletes to focus more on their game, rather than worrying about slipping and falling on the field or court.
Grip socks are made with grippy pads on key contact zones, like the balls and pads of the feet, that increase friction between the sock sole and the surface it contacts, preventing slippage. They can also be worn without shoes, and are common in pilates classes and for elderly people who may be at risk of falls.
These types of socks are not only more comfortable than traditional football socks, but they can also help boost an athlete’s confidence and performance. Feeling secure in their footwear, players are able to focus more on their game and be more assertive and quick in their movements, which can lead to more wins in the gym or on the field.
Using patented IN//EX tech, our grip socks use pad technology on both the inside and outside of the product to ensure that your foot and shoe become one unit. This eliminates any slippage between the foot and shoe, reducing the amount of energy it takes for the central nervous system to activate the muscle units that control the foot and boot, maximizing performance. Our grip socks are available in two styles: cushion and thin. Both have their own benefits, with the thicker cushioned versions providing more comfort and the thin version being lighter for those who don’t want to add extra bulk to their football boots. sports grip socks
