What socks should be worn for Pilates?

A pair of dedicated grippy socks is recommended for all Pilates sessions. They are specifically designed for your classes and feature a strong, non-slip sole to stop you sliding, particularly on smooth surfaces, like a reformer carriage or mat.

What should you consider when choosing the right Pilates socks?

When choosing your socks, you should have a look for:Anti-slip sole: The pattern must be robust and strategically cover the foot's main pressure points for optimal tractionMaterial: A breathable, moisture-wicking fabric is best to keep your feet dry and comfortable throughout the sessionFit: Loose-fitting socks can shift, compromising grip and safety, so a snug, second-skin fit is your best betToe vs non-toe: You can either go for the enhanced security of individual toe pockets or the simplicity of a standard sock shapeComfort: They should have a soft feel and be non-irritating, particularly in the heel and ankle areasDurability: You’ll be washing your socks quite a lot so they must be able to be washed frequently while keeping their grip strength over time.Studio policy: Check that your studio doesn’t require you to have a specific design, such as a full-toe sock for hygiene standards.

Do they have dedicated arch support?

Yes, most socks feature an arch compression band which helps lift the middle of your foot. This stops foot fatigue and gives you a more secure fit that won’t twist during your workout.

What if I’m between sizes?

If you’re between sizes, we generally recommend choosing the smallest size for maximum stability.

Can I use Pilates socks for Yoga?

Absolutely, while yoga is traditionally practiced barefoot, pilates socks are great for extra support, warmth, hygiene or Yin Yoga.

Are the socks machine washable?

Yes, but to keep the grips sticky they need a little extra love. Turn your socks inside out, wash on a cold, gentle cycle and leave them to air dry as high heat can make the rubber brittle over time.

What is the typical price range?

Quality Pilates socks that give you decent wear and support your workouts cost around £12 - £18 on average. New arrivals and specially designed lines may cost more.

How to save on quality socks?

Whether you’re at the gym or at home, pilates socks are essential clothing. The best way to save on your socks is to buy in the sale. That way, you’re not compromising on quality (which can affect the wear you get from your grippy socks) but you are getting the best price, especially compared to new designs. Look out for final reduction sale days and credit to get your socks cheaper.

What workouts can I do in grip socks?

Non-slip socks are not just accessories or ways to spice up your outfits. They’re versatile clothing, try them out for reformer, mat Pilates, yoga and even static gym workouts.

Why your footwear matters

Specialised Pilates grips socks are not just a nice-to-have - the right gear can make or break your performance. While standard socks can cause slips and going barefoot might not give you the right support or hygiene, Pilates grip socks help you get a full range of motion and stay safe.

What are Pilates socks?

Pilates socks are high-performance footwear specifically engineered with silicone or rubberised grips on the sole. They are designed to mimic the feel of being barefoot while providing a layer of protection and a slip-free experience. For this reason, they’re as useful on the reformer as they are in mat Pilates and yoga.

How are they different from regular socks?

Traction: Unlike standard socks, grip socks have silicone-patterned soles to lock your foot in place.

Material: Built with breathable, moisture-wicking blends (like organic cotton or bamboo), grip socks are long-wearing and stop sweaty feet slipping inside.

Fit: They’re designed for a snug-fit so you can move with freedom as the fabric doesn't bunch up during complex movements like the Long Stretch or Elephant.

Benefits of wearing Pilates socks

Grip and safety
Pilates socks give you optimum grip, helping you stay stable on the reformer, especially in exercises where you need to stand or push against the foot bar. They give you enough friction to stop you slipping and allow you to hold poses for longer with confidence.

Hygiene
Studios are high-traffic environments so wearing socks provides you with a protective barrier between your skin and shared equipment, helping you to keep your feet clean and the studio hygienic.

Alignment and support
Many premium Pilates socks also include compression bands and targeted cushioning to help you maintain proper foot alignment - the foundation of total body posture and control.

Choosing the right design

Full-Toe: total coverage for warmth and hygiene

Toeless (Half-Toe): a barefoot feel where your toes touch the floor or bed to help with balance Low-Cut (Ankle)

Crew: a classic sock design with crew lengths offering extra compression for your calves
