About

Born from the desire to create stylish, comfortable and functional grip socks for the modern pilates and yoga enthusiast, MoveActive is committed to constantly evolving and perfecting their design to ensure they stay ahead of trends. Through a highly considered design process and superior fabrications, the MoveActive design team is committed to curating unique and beautiful pieces which stand the test of time.

Their unique designs are created with a sustainable approach, and they are committed to the constant journey of ensuring all our product packaging is completely green, with a goal of consistently reducing their carbon footprint, and becoming a completely sustainable business by 2030.

MoveActive has always believed in giving back to less fortunate communities. They have partnered with i=Change to donate $1 from every online order to one of three impactful charities the customer selects at checkout. For every donation, the entire donation reaches the charity - no deductions or fees are applied.

Founding Story

Prior to 2009 and before MoveActive was born, Melissa Pain was doing around five pilates reformer classes a week at various studios in the northern suburbs of Melbourne. It was then that she realised there were no socks in Australia that had anything unique about them; there was generally only one or maybe two colours available - black, and sometimes pink. She also noticed the socks available weren’t designed with movement and functionality in mind - there was a lack of high quality, comfortable and stylish socks available for her classes and she knew she couldn’t be the only person thinking surely they could be more fun?
