Apolla socks provide the benefit of a shoe and comfort of a sock. That is why dancer's call them Shocks! They provide all the sport-science features you need in ONE sock. 

Patented targeted zones provide arch and ankle support:

  • The 20-30 mmHg compression zones lift in key points of the feet to lift and stabilize but do NOT prevent range of motion like an orthotic...so you can still build foot strength
  • The high quality compression assists circulation & recovery by reducing inflammation which energizes your muscles. 
  • This is very similar to the support you will get from taping…except it allows for better movement and comfort.
  • The stability they provide is raved about from customers with joint hypermobility and are looking for comfort and stability.

Knit-in Energy Absorption:

  • A 2019 independent study at Ohio University showed Apolla socks reduced force.
  • Our padding on the ball of the foot AND the heel provides comfort for your metatarsals but is not too thick in shoes.

Additional Features:

  • Antimicrobial
  • Moisture-wicking
  • Durable
  • Recycleable 
  • Apolla socks are anatomically correct. Click here to see how to wear them properly

 

ALL OF OUR APOLLA SOCKS HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE AMERICAN PODIATRIC MEDICAL ASSOCIATION SEAL OF ACCEPTANCE. 

 

WHY DO YOU WANT ALL OF THESE FEATURES IN YOUR SOCKS?

Our high-quality, patented compression, and energy absorption combined stabilizes the 26 bones in the foot and the ankle’s tendons and ligaments. This minimizes the amount of inflammation that takes place during your daily life or exercise that occurs due to overuse in your joints and muscles. We encourage you to have a pair for your exercise and a pair for recovery or everyday wear.

Inflammation is a natural occurence in the body, but if it is not removed or given enough time to decrease it can build up to cause chronic pain and issues like plantar fasciitis and tendonitis. Apolla socks help to not only decrease this painful inflammation that exercise and long days on your feet produces, but it also helps remove it. You will notice less fatigue, muscle pain, and they don't prevent range of motion so your muscles can still build strength. When you remove inflammation, you ache less and feel better…and you can do MORE of what you love, longer & stronger!

TRACTION OR NON-TRACTION?
Traction = grip so you don't slip!

There is an Apolla Shock for everyone and we recommend having one of each in your bag to keep you protected on any dance floor, in and out of the studio, from cross-training, to travel, from stage to recovery and everything in between! All Shocks are available WITH or NON traction.

Here are some guidelines to help you choose which option is best for YOU:

Choose WITH traction:

For any dance floor or slippery surface

• We recommend if you are going to be using primarily on a dance floor that you always get WITH traction on all styles of Shocks, then wear it down to your preferred grip.

Choose NON traction:

For carpet at conventions

I will be wearing my Shocks in shoes (i.e. tap shoes, sneakers, etc.)

IMPORTANT: YOUR TRACTION WILL START VERY STICKY THEN WEAR DOWN TO THE GRIP YOU WANT TO KEEP IT AT.
• This break in period can be 1-3 classes on average
• IF you do not feel strong resistance on the first step? Please always contact Apolla customer service so we can help.
• Once broken in, start refreshing the grip every class to KEEP the level of "stick" you want.
• You must start refreshing your grip with either E6000 Spray Adhesive (this is what we recommend) or other refreshers can be Bloch rosin spray or a regular rock rosin.
• If you do NOT start refreshing or you wear your WITH traction Shocks on carpet or in shoes, it may wear down your grip to almost nothing and make it not as effective.
• Refresh your traction so you can keep "re-sticking" your grip over and over for the life of the Shock.

Please note: Due to the antimicrobial/moisture wicking properties in every pair, we recommend to treat your Shocks more as you would a shoe. They do not need to be washed daily or even weekly, as water will naturally break down the traction faster. Wash your Shocks only as necessary to possibly preserve the life of the traction. OR wash your Shocks if you want to wear the traction in faster. You will find they continue to bounce back to fit like a glove to your foot the more you wear and wash them. For the Joule, we recommend washing to bounce them back to shape when needed.

Care: All of our Shocks can be washed and dried according to our recommended care instructions and always use your Apolla Mesh Bag when laundering. We also recommend washing the WITH traction Shocks inside out to help preserve the traction.
