Sole Options
There are two sole options available choose non traction if you plan to wear the socks inside a shoe or on a carpeted surface without shoes. Choose traction if you plan to wear the socks without shoes on any dance floor or slippery surface.
Traction Option
The traction option has a thin invisible coating on the bottom of the sole that will start off very sticky then wear down to the grip you want. To maintain the ideal amount of grip you will need to refresh the grip by applying the Apolla E600 Spray Adhesive or rosin spray or rock rosin, sold separately to the bottom of each sole as needed.
Wash the socks only as necessary to help preserve the life of the traction coating.
