Inversion Studios Cotton Full Grip Bottom Yoga and Pilates Socks

Years of running, swimming, biking and climbing have taken their toll on my poor feet: calluses, scars, battered toenails, and more. I bought these cotton socks to wear in the yoga studio. I didn’t buy them for their anti-slip properties; their purpose is vanity, not performance. In that area of measurement, they are outstanding. They are made with soft material and grey piping and two elastic bands accents across the dorsal area of the foot. They look like ballet slippers. They are so comfortable, I forget that I have them on.In terms of performance, they work best on PVC-style mats. I don’t recommend you wear these socks on yoga towels or 2-in-1 microfiber mats. The grippy dots will slide around on those smooth surfaces. I also don’t recommend walking around the studio in these socks as the dots will get pounded down quickly and lose their anti-skid properties. Put them on only when you are on your mat. They are definitely not a good choice for Pilates, either. For that kind of workout, try this lightweight footwear, instead. The grippy dots are not as thick or numerous as yoga gloves, and I don’t think they will stand up long to repeated use and washings (I’ve had my Gaiam gloves for more than a year, and they still grip great)For just over a 5 buck price, though, these attractive, comfortable socks are a bargain as studio footwear.

I have small feet (W 6.5 US) and these fit well. Would probably stretch okay to an 8, but wouldn't suggest any larger than that. I don't use them for yoga, so I can't speak to their effectiveness during workouts, but these are great as "house slippers" if you want something lightweight, and better on hardwood than just socks. This will be my summer go-to inside our home with all hardwood floors, and a sometimes windy, dusty environment that makes the floors both a little slippery and not something you want your bare feet on all day.They stay on well, although the back slides down on me a bit (maybe due to small foot?) and the strap across the vamp is not too tight.

These fit perfectly, aren't hot, keep me from sliding on my wood floors and keep my feet warm when it's cold. I got them to wear more or less as slippers when it's cold because normally I'm barefoot and don't like real slippers. These feel as if you're barefoot without the cold. They're perfect for that, but they also work very well on a Pilates reformer - which is their actual intention. I like them so much I've bought pairs for houseguests and extras for myself (my dog chewed up my first pair; she likes them too).

I bought the somewhat more expensive ones hoping they wouldn't be Asian sized because my feet aren't tiny. They fit OK. I feel like my toes are a little squashed. I would prefer a touch more room, but I don't have trouble getting them on. My feet are 9.5 B womens. The grip is pretty good, but I think it should go further toward the end of the toe and heel space. These are probably perfect if you have say size 8 feet.

I couldn't even wear these flimsy socks (?) because they wouldn't stay on my feet. When I walked they slipped off my heels. Plus they did not have enough grip to keep me from slipping on my kitchen floor or any other floor without a rug. I will not purchase again or recommend them to anyone.

I bought these to protect my feet in the Summer when I prefer to go barefoot around the house on the hardwood - my feet have been getting too dry. I needed something light but not slippery also. These are great, the bumps on the bottom are not annoying and the fit is comfortable. Would buy these again, just what I wanted.

I wore these the first time when I did yoga at home. They are well-made, fit nicely and feel great on my feet. They gripped the floor well and stopped me from sliding around on the rug. I can't wait to wear them tomorrow when I go to my Body Flow class at the gym. I always have trouble with sliding around on the mat and look forward to see how these socks perform. Based on what I've seen so far, they should do well.Just added---I went to Body Flow and wore the socks---no sliding !

Nice sock for barre class. Thin enough to wear under boots or clogs to go to class. Fits well enough and bottom is nonslip but they did slip off a couple of times with more rigorous movement. I wish the top was more elasticized around the foot.
