Kickproofs Socks with Grippers?

I have always used socks from Old Navy,and Childrens Place they both have grippers on the bottom and stay on, I have never had any problems with them, matter fact they are the only socks my children wear.

When my daughter was 1 year old I had a friend recommend socks from Old Navy, so we bought some to see how it went.. I absolutely loved them. Our daughter couldnt take them off herself nor did they come off when she would wiggle.. We still wear them and think they are the best.. Give them a shot they are usually pretty inexpensive.

These aren't socks, but have you thought of getting Robeez? They are soft leather, kind of like slippers. They stay on very well and are great for kids who are learning to walk. I had them for both my kids and just loved them! They come in all sorts of cute styles.

I've always used Gap's triple roll socks for all of the reasons you mention...they stay on and have grippers on the bottom for our hardwood floors. They're the best!

But if you find socks that stay on but don't have grippers, you can always take some fabric puffy paint and put some on the bottom and it'll be the same...plus you can use fun colors or sayings! Just an idea...

Hanna Andersson also has nice socks with grippers on the bottom & we've found that they stay on well.

Those Carters ones are the best though! My 5 year old was still trying to wear them when he was 3 & had LONG outgrown them! :)

Good luck!

Hi M.,

We also have hardwood floors and insisted that the socks have grippers. After time we realized that NO socks are better than socks when they are just learning to walk (for my twins it was 16 months, not 10). We still prefer the boys walk on the floors without socks because they slip when they run and it's too hard to stop them from running.

But to keep the socks on, we would buy socks up 1 size from the age of our kids. We use Circo mostly, but would buy socks big enough to cover their knees or come up to their knees, and pulled the socks up to that point. If you daughter is big then maybe try going up 2 sizes (our boys are in the 25th %ile) but either way the boys couldn't get the socks off and they never slipped off when I pulled them that high.

Also, I have had other brands of socks, ranging from Carters to Baby Gap to Gymboree, and the grip seemed to be the same after a couple washes. That why we chose to just stick with Circo. Just my experience.

Good luck!
