Football Grip Socks FAQs

Why do footballers wear grip socks?

Normal socks let your foot slide inside the boot when you accelerate, stop or turn. Grip socks hold your foot in place, so you get better control and a more stable feel. Read more in our guide: why footballers wear grip socks.

How do you wear grip socks with team socks?

Wear the grip sock on your foot as normal, slide your shin pad on, then pull a pre-cut sock sleeve over the top in your team colour. You get the grip inside the boot and the look of a full team sock on the outside. No cutting required.

Are grip socks allowed in grassroots football?

Grip socks are widely worn at every level, from grassroots to the professional game. If your league or club has kit colour rules, wearing a sock sleeve in your team colour over the top keeps you matching.

Can you wear grip socks for other sports?

Yes. The same grip works inside trainers, so they're popular for padel, tennis and other court sports. See our Padel Kit.

How should I wash grip socks?

Wash inside out on a cool wash, skip the fabric softener (it can coat the grip dots) and air dry to keep the grip working for longer.
