If someone on your list spends her mornings on a reformer or a barre, the easiest gift is one she will actually use every week. Grip socks top that list, and holiday prints make them feel like a present rather than a refill. Here are Pilates gifts for her at every budget, built around Souls, the grip sock brand that just released its holiday styles.
Quick take: For most Pilates lovers, a pair or two of holiday grip socks is the best gift for the money. Souls grip socks cost $20 a pair, the new holiday styles come in S/M and M/L, and the site was running a buy three, get the fourth pair free offer with no code when we checked on November 4, 2026. Souls does not accept refunds or exchanges, so if you are unsure of her size, a Souls digital gift card ($25 to $100) is the safer pick.
Why grip socks make a good Pilates gift
Many Pilates, barre and Lagree studios ask clients to wear grip socks, and regulars go through them quickly. A dedicated student might own a drawer full and still be happy to get another pair, especially a seasonal one she would not buy for herself. Grip socks are also small, easy to wrap and simple to mail, which makes them a natural stocking stuffer or add-on gift.
The other reason is fit. Unlike leggings or tops, socks come in two sizes at Souls, so there is less guesswork. Its listings size S/M for women’s shoe sizes 5.5 to 7 and M/L for sizes 7.5 to 10.

Best for the holidays: the new seasonal grip socks
Souls added five holiday styles in early November. All are $20 a pair, all list premium silicone grips and a soft, breathable fabric, and all were in stock in both sizes when we checked.
Santa’s Favorite
Santa’s Favorite grip socks add a bow detail to a festive design. It is the pick for someone whose studio wardrobe already leans pink and feminine, and Souls offers it in a crew height.
Baby, It’s Cold Outside
This pair splits the design across both feet: a snowman embroidered on one sock and the song title on the other. The Baby, It’s Cold Outside grip socks are a fun choice for a friend who likes a little wit in her class outfit.
Candycane Lane, Light Me Up and Holiday Tree
Candycane Lane plays on the classic striped candy, Light Me Up brings a holiday lights theme, and Holiday Tree carries a Christmas tree pattern. Together with the two styles above, they make an easy set of four for the buy three, get one free offer.
Best for the student who has everything: studio accessories
Grip mat towels
Souls sells two grip mat towels at $68 each, Here for the Booty and Celestial. Both have a non-slip grip bottom meant to keep the towel in place on the mat and an absorbent top layer. Celestial carries an all-over design of evil eyes, Hamsa hands and stars. These suit mat Pilates and yoga more than reformer classes.
Totes
Studio totes run $30 to $40. Hot Girls Do Lagree ($30) has a red chili graphic and is listed as a limited edition, while Pilates Is My Boyfriend and I do Pilates & Spend Money are $40. Each is sized for grip socks, a water bottle and everyday essentials.
Claw clips
At $13, a claw clip is the easiest add-on. The Souls. Claw Clip comes in a glossy baby blue, and the Pilates Babe clip is a blush pink acetate with embossed lettering. Tie one to the ribbon on a sock gift and you have a small bundle.
Best when you are not sure of her size: the gift card
This is the one rule worth taking seriously. Souls’ refund policy states that it does not offer refunds or exchanges on any purchase. If you are guessing her shoe size, or she already owns half the catalog, the Souls digital gift card lets her choose for herself. It comes in $25, $50, $75 and $100 amounts. A $75 card covers four pairs with the current multi-pair offer, with room left for a clip.
How to choose the right Pilates gift
- Check her size first. S/M fits women’s shoe sizes 5.5 to 7 and M/L fits 7.5 to 10, per Souls listings. Between sizes or unsure? Go with the gift card.
- Match her class. Grip socks work for reformer, barre, Lagree and yoga. Mat towels make more sense for mat classes.
- Think about height. Souls makes both short and crew grip socks. If she wears ankle socks to class, stick with short styles.
- Bundle for value. Four pairs cost the same as three while the multi-pair offer runs, which turns a $60 gift into a full weekly rotation.
- Order early. Souls says orders usually ship within two to three business days and standard delivery usually takes five to seven business days, with longer processing possible in peak season.
