My grandchildren gave me yoga socks as a present. I always send socks for birthdays and Christmas since I like to be sensible and everyone can use new socks. They are always received with lukewarm appreciation. When it came time to give me a present, they thought it was hysterical that they could give grandma socks. Yoga socks. The socks have sat in a bag with my yoga mat for about 6 months and I finally decided to take them out for a zip around the classroom.
Now for the review: Pros – nice little silicone beads on the bottom helps with grip when doing standing poses, toe holes help when you want to spread your toes, they were well made and fit snugly. Color matched my mat and my blocks. Will keep your feet warmer.
Cons – takes a little getting used to having something between your toes. Can’t replace your mat unless you are prepared to sit or lay on the ground for other poses. They feel really funny in your sneakers so you need to only put them on once you get to class.
They are cute and match my mat and I was the only one in the class with cute little socks. Made me feel special…big smile…. They would work well, if and when, I do yoga on the carpet in the living room. The best part of yoga socks is that I will think of my granddaughters every time I put them on.
