Custom grip socks: your questions answered

Everything clubs, schools and teams ask us before they order, from minimums and lead times to logos, sizing and which sock suits your sport.

Sports and sock types

Which iGripps sock is right for my sport?

Full-length socks are for football (soccer), rugby league, rugby union, Aussie rules (AFL) and field hockey. Performance athletic socks, a crew-height rib-knit sock, are for netball, athletics and basketball. Ankle socks are for pilates, gymnastics, yoga and the gym floor. Every type can have grip pads on the sole, or none.

What are grip socks?

Grip socks have rubber grip pads on the sole. On the field they help stop your foot sliding inside the boot; in a studio or a gym they hold on the mat or the floor. iGripps makes them in your club colours, with your club name and logo.

Are your full-length socks made to be cut?

No. Our full-length socks are made to be worn as one sock, from the top of the leg to the toe, not cut down and worn over another sock. There is nothing to trim or tuck before the game.

Do you make socks for junior teams and schools?

Yes. We make socks for every level, from the first game in the U6s to elite players, and for schools as well as clubs. Sizes start at S.

Ordering and pricing

What is the minimum order for custom grip socks?

Team orders start at 50 pairs. You can mix sizes, as long as each size you order has at least 50 pairs.

How much do custom grip socks cost?

The price depends on the sock type, the quantity, the design and whether you want grip pads. Design your socks online and request a quote: we reply within one business day. Ask us about pricing for larger team orders.

How long does an order take?

Orders are usually made in 3 to 4 weeks, then posted to you. If you need socks for the start of the season, a carnival or a tournament, order early and tell us the date.

Do you deliver Australia-wide?

Yes. We are based in Sydney, NSW, and we post all over Australia.

Can we get a sample before we order?

Yes. Ask us for a sample pair and we will help you feel the difference before your club commits.

Can our school or club canteen re-sell iGripps socks?

Yes. Gear managers can buy socks and re-sell them in school or club canteens, and we work hard to secure the best price and value for your re-selling.

Do you offer a discount for promotions?

We offer discounted rates in exchange for at-venue and digital promotions. Contact us with your plans and we will talk it through.

Designing your socks

How do I design custom socks for my club?

Use the iGripps sock designer online. Pick the sock type, the colours and a pattern, add your club name and logo, choose the grip, then request a quote. You can share a link to the design with your committee before you order.

Can you match our club colours?

Yes. Every colour in the designer is a Pantone colour, so your socks are made in the colours you chose, not a near match.

Can we put our club logo on the socks?

Yes. Upload a PNG, JPG or SVG file of up to 4 MB in the designer, and place it on the front, on one side, on both sides or on the back of the leg, in small, medium or large. Logos are knitted in, so very fine detail and gradients may be simplified.

Can we put our club name on the socks?

Yes. The name can run down the leg or across it, on both sides, one side, the front or the back. Up to 15 letters fit on a full-length sock and 10 on a performance athletic sock. Ankle socks are too short for a name, but it still goes on your quote.

Grip and sizing

Can we order socks without grip pads?

Yes. Grip pads are optional on every sock type. Without grip, they are a custom team sock in your club colours.

Can we choose the colour of the grip pads?

Yes. The grip can match your club name colour, another colour in your design, or any colour you choose.

What sizes do your socks come in?

Every sock comes in S, M, L and XL. Full-length socks follow our own chart by foot length and shoe size (EU, UK and US). Performance athletic and ankle socks use standard athletic sizes, by men's and women's US and EU shoe size. See the size guide for the full charts.

Can we order different sizes in one order?

Yes. Split your order across S, M, L and XL. Each size you order needs at least 50 pairs, and any number from 50 up is fine.
