I created Gripjoy to solve a problem that has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Clumsiness was always a challenge, but as I grew older, minor trips turned into serious slips, leading to some frightening moments—especially as a new mom. After a series of falls and a diagnosis of Pompe disease, a condition causing muscle weakness, I knew I had to take control.

Determined to stay safe, I tried hospital and slipper socks but found them uncomfortable and a constant reminder of my illness. That’s when I decided to create something better—socks that are both functional and stylish, with discreet grips that fit comfortably into shoes.

Through this journey, I realized I wasn't alone. Many share the need for safe, comfortable, and attractive non-slip socks. Together, we're making the world a little less slippery.
