Arebesk is a home grown, mom owned luxury brand known for creating the first designer grip sock. Arebesk launched out of a garage with just enough funding to bring in one style, the Phish Net collection, and no budget left for marketing. After selling out in two local Los Angeles studios, studios around the world started demanding Arebesk, noticing our unique designs and unbeatable quality. Arebesk founder and pilates enthusiast Leana Shayefar received the inspiration for the company after falling in love with the pilates workout and struggling to find a grip sock that offered both style and traction.

Arebesk is the first grip sock to offer two half circle silicone patches on the ball and heel of the foot, as well as a silicone tab inside the heel of the sock. This patented design uses double the silicone of traditional grip socks, providing extra cushion, a more secure fit, and remarkable traction throughout long periods of use. Arebesk also pioneered our signature mesh drawstring wash bag, which protects the silicone grip in the wash cycle and is sold with every pair of Arebesk grip socks.

As a company rooted in movement, our name Arebesk pays homage to the “arabesque,” a standard ballet step where the body is supported on one leg while the other leg sweeps backwards. As a step utilized in Pilates and other movement based workouts, it serves as a reminder of the diverse community of fitness enthusiasts we aim to serve with our products.
