Product Information: GRiPPiES is the no-slip solution for tights, socks and gloves! GRiPPiES offers two lines of products: adhesive AND iron on shapes in bears, beans and stars for your “little ones” socks and No-Slip Run Resistant tights with the GRiPPiES already applied to the soles.
GRiPPiES was started after two moms wanted to prevent the “socks-meet-hardwood floors” wipe out and just won The National Parent Center Seal of Approval in 2009!
My thoughts: I try to buy socks that have the no-slip thing already on the socks but not every one sells them like this so it’s not always possible. However I’ve never seen or heard of tights that have the no-slip on them and that is a VERY good thing. I’m a mom of 2 girls and they were tights a lot and they always take their shoes off in the house, we all do. As a matter of fact when my oldest was about 2 1/2 she was walking down our carpeted stairs and she had on tights, not very slippery tights, more like the cotton knit tights. I never dreamt this would happen but, she slide on the stairs and fell all the way down. Luckily she didn’t get hurt, she kinda slide on her bum but still, it could of been worse. I wish I had know about Grippies back then because I would of always used them, and I will be using them now.
They go on easily and stay on really well too. My girls weren’t too happy with me at first because they like to “ice skate” down our hall that has ceramic tile but mom’s happy to know they won’t be splitting open their head in my house anytime soon, preferably never.
