Gentle Grip
Gentle Grip is a British sock maker built around one idea: a top that holds the sock up without digging into the leg. Its HoneyComb Top design suits anyone who hates the red rings ordinary socks leave behind, including people with sensitive feet or legs. The brand sells direct online, and the same socks also turn up at Marks & Spencer and SOCKSHOP.

About Gentle Grip
What's in the sock drawer
Most of the range is everyday socks in three main materials: soft cotton, silky bamboo and a warmer wool blend for cold weather. Patterns run from Argyle and florals to stripes, plain styles and novelty prints, and there are sports, leisure and knee-high lengths. Seasonal ranges such as Colourburst and Festive Fun Feet appear too.
Socks for health needs
Through a tie-up with IOMI FootNurse, Gentle Grip makes a diabetic sock with extra-smooth toe seams. It is aimed at feet, ankles and legs that need gentler handling. Slipper socks with non-slip grips are sold for padding around the house, adding a little safety on hard floors.
Before you order
Gentle Grip ships within the UK and abroad. Unworn socks can go back within 30 days, so keep pairs in their packaging until you are sure of the fit. Visa, Mastercard and PayPal are all accepted at checkout. The company behind the brand is Drew Brady & Co. Limited, and emails to its team normally get an answer the next working day.

Gentle Grip FAQs
Will Gentle Grip socks leave marks on my legs?
They are designed not to. The HoneyComb Top grips lightly and spreads the hold, so the cuff stays up without the tight band that leaves ridges on the skin.
Can I send socks back if they don't suit me?
Yes, provided they have not been worn. Gentle Grip takes back unworn items for up to 30 days, so check the size and colour before wearing a pair.
Does Gentle Grip deliver outside the UK?
It does. Alongside UK delivery, the shop sends orders internationally, so friends and family abroad can be sent a pair straight from the website.
Where else can I buy Gentle Grip socks?
Besides the brand's own website, the socks are stocked by Marks & Spencer and SOCKSHOP, which is handy if you already shop with either retailer.
Are there socks for people with diabetes?
Yes. Made with IOMI FootNurse, the diabetic socks have extra-smooth toe seams and the same gentle top, aimed at sensitive feet, ankles and legs.
