It’s no secret that Pilates is all the rage right now: Since the 2020 pandemic, this versatile exercise has skyrocketed in popularity.
If you’re a Pilates regular (or Pilates Princess, as we on TikTok call you), Pilates grip socks are an essential accessory. Suitable for your Pilates Reformer practice, grip socks are an essential gym bag item. In fact, most studios won’t let you into class without them. But not all grip socks are the same. I recently purchased a pair of WellBeing + BeingWell Striped Tube Grip Socks by Revolve, and they’re my new favorite.
As a certified Pilates instructor, I’ve tried my fair share of Pilates socks, and this best-selling style ticks all the boxes for me. Sure, $24 for a pair of socks may seem like a lot, but when it comes to Pilates socks, quality is everything. After all, when working out on the reformer, you need durable socks with a good grip that will not only prevent injury, but also help you advance your practice by improving your balance and stability in different positions.
The biggest selling point is the durability of the grip on the soles. Most other socks I’ve tried have a flimsy grip that wears off after a few uses. But I’ve been wearing them several times a week for months (not to mention washing them dozens of times), and these socks are still as sticky as when I bought them.
Other buyers agree: “I’ve had it for months and it still has grip. I do pilates multiple times a week,” raved one buyer.
Another added: “Tacky So good.”
So far I haven’t found a better performing sock. Fit and comfort are important to me, and these 80% cotton socks are super soft with just the right amount of stretch. I love the stylish shaft length of these socks and how they fit nicely around the calf without choking me. Once you put them on, they stay in place. They stay in place throughout your entire workout. For me, they’re worth the price.
The little heart-shaped grips are not only better than the rest, but they’re the perfect way to complete a Pilates outfit. Like other TikTok Pilates Princesses, I usually wear chic monochromatic sets; throwing on some coordinating socks really brings the look together. The simple striped style comes in five neutral colorways, from classic white and black to beige and gray to off-white and navy blue. When in doubt, I’ll go for the classic black and white pair, but the Bran-Alfalfa Green (a light neutral khaki) is a close second.
Trust me, I’ve tried them all, and if you’re looking for a pair of Pilates socks worth the investment, you won’t be disappointed.
