Staff Answer

Yes, although one of the more popular brands, Grippies, may be discontinued. You can also use duct tape, but the adhesive will likely disintegrate when you wash the socks.

Use a puffy paint, such as Tulip Dimensional Fabric Paint. This type of paint has a raised surface when it dries, which will create a better grip than flat paints.

The puff paint will stay on the sock, but make sure to wash it only when the puff paint is dry.

Heat will cause the hot glue to permanently adhere to the fabric fibers. Make sure it's very warm.
