How much do sneakers grip dancing? We tested it!
🟡 Onesock Productions Inc, the makers of the original dance socks, did an independent study at USC Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Research Lab in Los Angeles to measure the grip of different sneakers with and without The DanceSocks.
🟡 The study essentially proved that The DanceSocks turn sneakers into dance shoes. The traction level with The DanceSocks over any sneaker matched or was better than a leather soled Capezio character dance shoe.
🟡 It confirmed that The DanceSocks greatly reduce the strain on ankle, knee and hip joints preventing injuries caused by sneakers gripping during rotational movements.
🟡 Common injuries reported by 1 in 3 dancers who dance in sneakers include tendon, ligament and meniscus tears, which can often require surgery.
🟡 You can wear any sneaker with The DanceSocks and the benefits will be consistent.
🟡 We tested dance sneakers with spin spots. They were as grippy as running shoes. Spin spots on sneakers did not provide any improvement for dancing.
🟡 Age has very little effect on these types of injuries. So, no matter your age here’s to happy and healthy uninterrupted dancing with The DanceSocks!
So go ahead, wear your favorite sneakers for dance, dance fitness, tai chi or kickboxing, just as long as you wear The DanceSocks over them so you can turn easily protecting your joints from injury so you can keep on dancing.

I started using dance socks 3 or 4 years ago. I had had an orthopedic surgeon tell me I needed a knee replacement. I use sleeves to protect my knees and I don’t have any problems with my knees! Thanks dance socks!
