Best Grippy Shoes for Barre, Pilates & Yoga — Beyond Yoga Socks (Open Sole)

I use these Grippys exclusively for Pilates and have turned many on to them! They are perfect for no slip and precision and I’m a 7-8 class a week person and have 2 pairs that I lightly clean with the same gentle wipes we use for equipment and back in my bag they go! The best!

Absolutely no slipping which is precisely what I was looking for. All the other grip socks sticky bottom end short of the heel right where you need it for bridging in Pilates. NOT with these, they’ve got a style going all the way up your heel, worth every penny. I feel safe and secure, it’s helped my confidence and form. My only regret is I got the in black and they look kinda spiderweb like and I wish I’d pick a cute color, but that was my bad! The product is a gem and now I wear nothing else. They wash up like new easy peasy over & over.

I was dreading going back to Pilates after a spinal fusion because I felt like grip socks were not going to cut it. I had never found a pair of grip socks that wouldn’t slip a bit while doing bridges on the chair or reformer so I started looking for something that would help alleviate my fears. This seemed like the perfect option. Not only do they not skip, they’ve allowed for a more intuitive grip while bridging that has eliminated any hamstring pain I was experiencing before. It helped me really make a better connection with my feet and positioning across the board. I bought two pairs, so that if have a back up. I haven’t needed to use them because of the minimal wear and tear on the pair I wear regularly. It’s been 295 classes with one pair. That second pair? I’ve now started loaning them to people in my Pilates classes (I wash them of course!) and people have been amazed with the difference in connection of their bodies in class.

I deal with arthritis at the ball of both feet and these shoes are so helpful! Total game changer, I highly recommend for yoga and Pilates

Honestly this is the second pair I’m buying love them ssooo much got a lot of use out of it and I bought a third lasted me a year used it almost every day !

The Barrelectics footwear is a genius product,
which I appreciate for yoga classes and lounging at home. It combines minimalist aesthetics, vibrant colors and functionality.

Exactly what I’ve been looking for. I have balance issues and these help keep my feet planted. I feel much more secure.

Fantastic for my 7-8x/week Pilates and are always sticky (vs Pilates socks) and I love them for my workouts! Perfect!

As I was tired of the 'grippers' on my Pilates socks losing their grip during practice, a Pilates friend recommended barreletics. They were a game changer! No more sliding when working on the reformer or mat, or when using the TRX system. Love them and highly recommend!

This pair is my second purchased - my first having been purchased almost 4 years ago. The reason for the second pair is purely color! I love blue but wanted to change it up from time to time. I must say these are truly valuable to my Pilates practice - I refuse to wear anything else - the security that is provided is unmatched. They are also durable and easy to clean. (Let me say the 'older ones' show no signs of wear). I am a former ballet dancer who is ultra picky with what is worn on my feet and these are perfect!. They are always noticed by others and I am always highly recommending. Thank you!!!

I use these for Pilates and grip socks ARE useless compared to these shoes. They even help me with my balance! I have the dark and light grey and I wish they had a neutral skin color because I would buy those too! :)

I was stunned by the quality of the yoga pants. Truly a luxurious fabric that is more substantial than other name brand pants I own by a long shot. They are almost silk-like soft, they do not pill from what I have seen thus far and are not sheer or see thru. I sized down as suggested and they fit perfect!

I was a little skeptical at first. The moment I put them on, I knew I had made a great choice. I was worried that my feet would slip around inside the Barreletics, they do not. They are exactly what I wanted and needed. I also received a lot of great help with my questions on sizing. They feel great on my feet. Like nothing at all! Works for me.

I looked at these Pilates shoes for over a year thinking “Way too expensive.” Well, I can't tell you how much I spent on Pilates socks that got ruined and stretched out of shape in no time. They never made me feel secure in my footage. Then as a birthday gift to myself, I got these. Game Changer. Great Support and Confidence say it all. Do not wait BUY THEM. Worth every penny!

I was looking for a "good" pair of Pilates socks and came across what I thought was a ridiculously priced alternative. I sat on the idea for a couple of weeks but finally decided to take the plunge. I did sign up for an account for a 10% discount but I still held my breath until they arrived. After my first class my reaction was: absolutely worth it.
