Bombas reviews and discussion

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.

  • These socks are super comfy and hold up very well over time.

    Feedback

    Price is a bit high, but they are very good quality.

  • These are pretty good socks! That's it. They're good socks. There are other brands of good socks. I am not sure the quality justifies the price tag – there are other good socks at lower prices. And they market some features ("no seam in the toe!") as innovations when they are in fact quite common. The gripper slippers are VERY UNDERRATED though, and make a great gift.

    Feedback

    I find the calf socks to be VERY narrow and constricting, to the point that they're uncomfortable and leave imprints on my legs.

  • I thought there was a lot of hype around these socks--but it is fully worth it! They are a sock that feels like you're not wearing socks (my fav!). Pretty colors and a variety of fits too!

  • ONLY SOCKS I'LL PUT ON MY FEET. best fitting socks I've owned and stand up to time so well. love the brand and what they stand for. favorite socks of the whole fam!

  • I only have one pair of Bombas socks, but I've had them for years and they've really held up, especially compared to any of my other socks. The quality is great - they're thick and hardy but also still fairly breathable. Only thing I have hesitation about is that design-wise, I don't love the middle band that exists on all their socks. Would love to see some editions without this band!

  • I have had my Bombas socks for 4 years now and they still hold up. The only reason I need to replace some soon is that my dog got a hold of some and chewed them. The color and materials are just as strong and vibrant as the day I got them. I own the regular crew socks and the knee-high snowboard socks and use them all year round. They are worth the hype!

  • 10/10 my favorite slippers ever. They are so incredibly soft inside with the merino wool, it's like a second skin. These are perfect for gifts and come in so many cute colors. I get myself a new pair every Christmas.

  • Very comfortable socks.

    Feedback

    Very comfortable socks. Would like a little thinner sock.

  • Love these socks! Super comfortable and love the merino wool options. Highly recommend.

    Feedback

    Comfortable & high quality! Keep up the high merino %.

  • Good socks. Quality feels solid. Have some pairs for running and longer calf length.

    Feedback

    Colors are nice. Could use some more interesting designs though.

  • I think Bombas are worth the hype. They truly are the best pair of socks I've ever worn. I love that they offer a variety of styles, and that they recently added pilates socks!

  • Amazing socks and amazing mission. I wish more businesses had a space for philanthropic missions! I like their ankle socks the best (and they never slip off)

  • Comfortable socks. Have good grip to them. Fun colors and last in the wash too

    Feedback

    N/a. Slightly on the pricier side but high end

  • I use both their everyday socks and their running socks - love both! They provide a lot of foot support, the quality is amazing, and all my socks have lasted through years of washing. The design and color choices range from basic black/white/gray to fun color mixing - so there's something for everyone. And the fun collabs are always nice for an extra special design. The running socks in particular have been amazing. They cushion the foot without feeling too thick, and the support bands do a lot to keep the feel feeling comfortable even on longer runs. I do feel like they make a difference, especially compared to my cheaper, thinner running socks. Bombas are an easy choice, and I never find myself wanting to try out different sock brands except when I want something that doesn't look like a Bomba!

  • These are BY FAR my favorite socks. From their no show to the knee highs, these socks rock. They are so soft and last super well. Absolutely worth the money.

  • My favorite socks, super comfy and warm, last forever.

    Feedback

    I will keep buying these socks but I don’t need to because the quality is so high.

  • I got the tie-dye merino wool socks. They are very soft and warm.

    Feedback

    Prices are definitely more expensive than your average sock but they are holding up pretty well.

  • I like Bombas but the sizing gets tight after a few washes. They seem a bit expensive for what they are.

  • Bombas socks are my favorites out there. Thick, comfortable and cute. They hold up after so many washes / dries. One thing to be ready for is they shed a ton of lint in the first wear and wash, but after that they’re perfect.

  • Super comfortable and high quality socks for adults and kids. We received a gift box of baby socks for our son and I loved the packaging and they have held up really well, they are anti-slip, and they stay on his feet.
