Reviews mention

  • Plush, supportive cushioning
  • Secure no‑show grip design
  • Breathable, sweat‑wicking knits
  • Thoughtful heel tab ergonomics
  • Inconsistent heel‑toe durability
  • Tight calf and ankle band
  • Noticeable shrinkage after washes
  • Too thick for narrow shoes

Bombas earns strong reviews for exceptionally comfortable, supportive socks that stay put—no-shows that don’t slip, cushioned running and hiking styles, and arch-hugging honeycomb knits impress. Reviews also flag weaknesses: some pairs shrink, run tight on wider feet/calves, feel thick in snug shoes, and durability can be inconsistent with heels/toes developing holes over months to a couple years. Many praise long wear and the one-pair-donated mission; others find them pricey for the longevity delivered. Overall, Bombas is good if you want plush comfort, grip, and fit; consider style and fit nuances if you prefer thinner or roomier socks.

  • best socks, great feet, cool collabs, great mission, fast shipping, long lasting (i could go on and on) i would say the one product miss was the non-padded no show socks for women, but the padded ones are great.

  • I got Bombas back in the kickstarter days. I still have them! They’re socks. They’re comfy and sturdy and they have bees on them which is honestly what sold me. I think the mission is important and knowing that you’re supporting said mission and enhancing the impact of the company is a great reason in itself to buy a pair.

  • We all ❤️ love our socks . They are breathable and durable. Kids love them too they are a bit harder on them and quality shows 👌.

  • Bombas are a staple in our family Christmas. Every year my mom buys each of us a new pack of Bombas socks. The quality is impeckable and I look forward to getting a new pack of socks every year. I love that they have unique colors and designs. That helps me keep track of my socks a little easier. They are soft and very durable. Love them!!

  • Gifted socks and found them warm and supportive.

  • Great socks that hold up well. Nicely padded for various activities.

  • My mom got these as a Christmas gift for everyone and we all immediately fell in love. The tightness around the arch of your foot feels so supportive. They donate one pair in someone in need for every pair you buy!

  • I loeve bombas socks. I feel like they are the perfect thickness. I have had a hole in one of my socks but the reason they still got a 5 was because of their customer service. They sent me a new pair immediatly once i showed them the hole. I will be a customer for life for their customer service alone.

  • Love these socks- wear to workout daily and they stay in place and are very comfortable!

  • I have been purchasing Bombas for years and have never been disappointed. The socks are well made and come in several fun designs that I always have a hard time choosing between. I’m also a huge fan of the slippers, which keep my feet warm but not too warm and include a nice padding that makes walking around the house enjoyable. Overall, I would highly recommend, especially with their commitment to donating socks to nonprofits that work with clients in need of the basics.

  • They are amazing socks but dupes do exist. They’re sooooo expensive. They are nice but for such a staple I have found a dupe I love

  • OH MY! I love these socks. My son has been getting me them as gifts the last few years and now my feet are spoiled. I have both the short ones for summer and the longer for winter. By far the best socks I have ever had!

  • Comfiest socks I own. They are expensive - if you buy a pack it can be >$50, so that's a little shocking, but when each pair bought donates a pair to a homeless shelter you feel better about the purchase.

  • Bombas socks are super soft and the fit is great (no weird seams and they don’t slip down). My husband also loves the slipper socks that come with grips on the bottom!

  • I have been really happy with my bombas purchases. The arch support is unmatched, the ankle socks don't slip down, and i find that they wash very well.

  • A friend of mine gave me gripper socks to wear in the house. I think they're really great, and the pattern that I got was Norwegian and cheerful (two words that don't go together usually). I get advertised this brand all the time for their socks, and the experience with the gripper slipper socks, gives me some confidence that the socks are actually pretty good as well. I have not washed my gripper socks yet, so I don't know the durability, but I think they feel substantial. They weren't particularly cheap, so expect them to last a year or two or three.

  • Bombas socks are comfortable, well-made, and built for the long run. I have had my Bombas socks for years and I always look forward to picking them out of my sock drawer and slipping them on. Great arch support, they don't slip down your ankle, good tongue to pull on and off. I try to buy a couple of new pairs every year and gift them regularly.

  • Gifting staple! This is my favorite gift to swap with my family, we are all big Bombas fans. Their socks are unmatched. We typically purchase their workout socks and minimal socks for low top shoes. My spouse also has their dress socks and they have held up great for years. I was gifted the slippers a few years back and they hold up well in the washer.
