Grip socks are performance socks with silicone or rubber grip elements on the outside that lock your foot inside your boot. They stop your foot sliding around inside the shoe during sharp cuts and sprints, which improves stability, reduces blistering, and gives you better feel on the ball. Most players notice the difference immediately.

Normal football socks are designed for comfort and moisture management. Grip socks add high-friction grip zones across the sole and sometimes the upper, so your foot stays anchored inside the boot. Many pros wear grip socks instead of regular socks, or cut the foot off their team sock and wear a grip sock underneath for the grip without losing the team look.

Right now we focus on delivering across New Zealand. If you are based overseas and want to order, email support@propitchfootball.com and we will do our best to help with a quote.

If your order has not yet been dispatched, email support@propitchfootball.com straight away with your order number and we will do everything we can to change or cancel it. Once an order has been packed and handed to the courier, it cannot be changed and will need to follow our returns process.

Yes — we offer Afterpay at checkout on eligible orders, so you can split your purchase into four interest-free instalments. Laybuy and Klarna are also available. Availability may vary by order total and is confirmed at checkout.

New Zealand pitches range from firm dry ground in summer to soft, wet ground in winter. We stock boots suited to local conditions and clearly label each boot. If you are unsure whether a boot is right for your ground type, email us and we will recommend the best option.

Knock off loose mud after every session, wipe with a damp cloth, and let your boots dry naturally at room temperature — never on a heater or in direct sun, which cracks the material. Stuff with newspaper to hold their shape and absorb moisture. Avoid machine washing, which damages the upper and sole plate.

We support grassroots and club football across New Zealand. For team or bulk orders, email support@propitchfootball.com with the products, quantities, and timeline and we will put together a tailored quote.

For select products we offer custom size enquiries. On a qualifying product page, use the Custom Size Enquiry button to send us your requirements. We will review and reply within 1 business day to confirm whether we can accommodate it.

Grip socks are popular across rugby league, touch rugby, and league because the same foot-lock benefit applies to any boot. Look for socks with grip on both the sole and the upper for multi-directional sports. Our grip socks are built for performance across football and rugby codes alike.
