Product Review - Grippies
by Amy W.Corrie Wilder and Yelena Mogelefsky bonded on the Long Island Railroad while sharing the same story: their kids were slipping all over the place. Not all socks have non-skid bottoms, nor do tights. And the ones that do have non-skid bottoms, they seem to never be in the right place.
So the idea for Grippies was born. And instant, easy and economical way to add traction to the bottom of tights or socks.
I was sent a package of the Iron-On Grippies as well as the Stick-On Grippies. My entire first floor is hard wood. And both of my kids love to run circles around through the kitchen, into the dining room and back through the family room. Often times they are chasing the dog or each other. Most of their socks have non-skid bottoms, but they still tend to slip. And none of the tights I have for either girl have non-skid bottoms. To say these Grippies come in handy is an understatement.
I used both, the Iron-On ones and the Stick-On ones on socks and tights. And both worked beautifully. The stars are cute, and the girls love saying they are "stepping on stars".
But there are other uses too - not only socks and tights, but gloves and heck, socks and tights for me as well. Not that I run through the kitchen chasing the dog, but I tend to be clumsy and coming down our all wood stairs is often an accident waiting to happen. And they are helpful for keeping my feet from sliding in my shoes when I have stockings on.
Check them out for yourselves, not only are they economical, but I am sure you can find more uses for them than I could think of.
