9 Best Grippy Socks to Keep Your Yoga and Workouts Slip-Free

There's nothing worse than nearly perfecting a yoga pose only for it to be ruined by slippery socks. In case you didn't know, rubber grip-bottomed, non-slip socks aren't just for hospital stays. Grip socks are actually total game changers in the fitness world, which is why, if you don't have any already, you should stock up and watch your workout routine change for the better.

We know what you're thinking. Grippy socks? Aren't those.... well, bulky and ugly? Rest assured that your new stockings don't have to look like post-surgery garb. Believe it or not, plenty of retailers offer sleek, unassuming grip sock designs. And while some are more basic—ankle length, black, with a stretchy fit and a heel-to-toe grip pattern—others are more complex and niche. There are toe socks with grips for pilates, ones with ballet-style openings for breathability, and others with an open-toe design for flexibility.

Regardless of which ones you choose, the best part is, you can't even tell most of them are decorated with rubber dots unless you look closely. Otherwise, they resemble regular pairs of athletic socks. Below, we've outlined some of the best on the market. Whether you're looking for fun designs to spice up your next session or some slip-ons to give you traction on your home's wood floors, there's a little bit of everything.
