About Us

Founded by a mental health care provider with a love for pilates, Grippy Sock Vacation is where wellness meets mental health meets a love for vacation.

In the mental health field, a "grippy sock vacation" is the colloquial term for an inpatient hospitalization, poking fun at the use of grip socks for infection control and safety reasons. Our founder has brought new meaning to the term by way of the 50 minute pilates classes that have served as her own form of "vacation," while wearing grippy socks, of course! 

The pilates girlies know the importance of a fun grip sock and a matching set, and our founder knows the importance of bringing greater awareness to mental health and wellness, whatever that might look like for you: pilates, yoga, or simply a vacation. To further this mission, a portion of all of our proceeds will be going to NAMI, a non-profit organization working to build better lives for those struggling with their own mental health.

We're happy to have you here, and here's to wellness!
