I have taken to not even wearing socks with my sneakers in the past year or so, much to the unhappiness of my heels. I thought I had tough skin and callouses from figure skating. But try a gym work out for, oh, say, a few years without socks, et voila! Hardened, tough feet that could be their own sneakers. The amount of lotion, Eucerin and night socks I have tried and worn to soften my feet is extensive. I thought being off my feet for the past almost year after hip surgery would help. But it hasn't. Now that I am skating again and ready for the gym, I dreaded digging out socks that slip down into my shoes. I cleaned out my sock drawer but I haven't yet hit the gym.

design, with mesh on top and grips on the bottom. They feel like the nylon-think socks/tights I wear for skating, but with underneath grips like you would find on house socks/slippers. They are not meant for dance, as you need to be able to slide across the floor and these will now allow that. I first tried them
Shashi founder, Natalie, wanted the same things I have wanted:
"Regardless of the workout, I found there to be a common thread:
- My preference is for my feet to be protected in a studio environment.
- While exercising, the heat became stifling, especially with your feet covered.
- I wanted my workout accessories, including socks, to be a stylish addition to my outfit.
- I desired different grips."
They are definitely more pricey than gym socks, I love these and I can't wait to wear them at the gym!
