What size are they?
One size, with flexible stretch that fits approximately AU women's 5 through to AU men's 13. The ribbed cuff holds without pressure and the grip sits under the foot where it should. Every design is fit-tested on an AU men's 13.
Will they actually grip?
Star grip runs across the full sole rather than a small patch, so traction holds on the reformer carriage, the mat and a polished studio floor.
What are they made of?
A thick, cotton-rich knit, up to 85% cotton with spandex for stretch. Ribbing through the cuff, arch support through the midfoot and a reinforced heel and toe. The exact blend is listed on each product page.
Are the designs printed?
No. The CC star and every design detail are embroidered, stitched into the sock so they do not peel.
How do I wash them?
Machine wash cold, inside out, on a gentle cycle. Air dry flat. Heat damages the grip, so no tumble drying, ironing or bleach on the sole.
What do Always and Limited mean?
Always: Midnight Core, Vanilla Core and Butter Core stay in the collection.
Limited: Western Martini, After Hours and Lucky Ace are first-release designs and are not part of the permanent collection.
When will my order ship?
In-stock orders are ordinarily packed and lodged with Australia Post within 3 business days. Express Post then generally takes 1 to 3+ business days and Parcel Post 2 to 6+ business days. Tracking is sent once your order is on its way.
How much is shipping?
Within Australia: Standard $14, Express $17. Express is free on Australian orders of $100 or more, so any four pairs ($104) ships express for free.
We ship worldwide with Australia Post International Standard (tracked), priced at checkout by destination. Import duties and taxes are paid by the receiver.
Can I return them?
For hygiene reasons, grip socks can't be returned or exchanged for change of mind. If your order arrives faulty, damaged or incorrect, email returns@corebychloe.com with your order number before sending anything back. This does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
