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.

  • LOVE BOMBAS. I have plenty of their socks, a tshirt and their slippers. I love every single one of them!

  • Great quality socks. Hold up well in the wash, still have a nice snug fit after many uses. Also love the mission behind the brand.

  • I was skeptical, but yeah, they’re good. Biggest pro for me is that they hold their shape after many wears and washes and don’t stretch out. They’re comfy, wicking, cushiony, and seem to last. Pricey but good!

  • I had to buy a pair of Bombas socks for a spin class over 6 years ago and I still have that pair and they're in perfect condition. They're so good that I bought exclusively Bombas socks for my husband, who loves the comfort and durability of them. They come in a ton of colors and sizes so even our little ones can wear them and we can hand them down without little toe holes.

  • I initially tried they socks because I liked their policy of donating a pair for every one purchased. They have held up very well and I have now bought them for every member of my family. My son struggles with the way seams feel on socks but these were so comfortable he never complained! A great purchase for anyone with sensory difficulties.

    Fantastic socks, they hold up well and are extremely comfortable.

  • I never thought twice about my socks until someone gifted me a pack of Bombas. I love the mission (they donate a pair for every pair purchased), and they are amazing quality. They are super durable, comfortable, and come in fun prints. My mother in law (who gave them to me) is a nationally ranked squash player, and she swears by these. I also love the matching baby/adult sets -- so sweet. I recommend Bombas to everyone and will never buy another sock brand again.

  • Lots of fun colors and styles to choose from. Very comfortable. Last a long time before needing to be replaced. Kind of expensive, but I like the mission behind it.

  • I was skeptical at first but these are hands down my favorite socks! These are made out of very high quality cotton (according to my mom who worked in the textile industry). I also love the variety of colors and styles available.

    Definitely pricey for socks so I'm not sure it'd be worth it for kids who outgrow socks quickly but for adults the quality is there.

  • Have the tie die socks and love them! Every socks unique and great for a “low key” fun sock. Very comfy too.

  • The best socks out there! I also love their mission to donate 1:1 for the products they sell.

    Feedback

    A little pricier than most socks ($13/pair) but worth it.

  • I bought these for stocking stuffers, and I loved them so much that I bought some form myself. Great company mission, and customer service is awesome.

    Feedback

    Everything was great from ordering the product to the quick delivery.

  • I received my first pair on an international flight. They're the best athletic socks ever.

  • High quality socks with so many different colors to choose from - would highly recommend!

    Feedback

    Nothing notable!

  • Only socks I wear now. Was lucky enough to get a free pair years ago when they were passing out at a booth in college and have worn only bombas since. Cliche, I know, but I feel a different with how these socks support my feet when working out, and the no slip actually work.

    Feedback

    Not cheap, but have not had a bad experience yet. Make sure you are buying the proper socks for the activity though, support varies based on work vs. working out vs. leisure (it’s noticeable in the socks).

  • My husband and I received these socks as a Christmas gift from family one year. It ended up being my favorite gift! We can't do our laundry fast enough to get our Bombas back on, again. They fit our feet so well and have amazing quality and feel.

    Feedback

    These socks don't slip or slide around. They are so soft and feel like a hug on your foot. Totally recommend. They have lasted a long time, too!

  • The best socks! Thick and durable, wash well, last a long time. Super comfy and warm too

    Feedback

    Higher price point

  • Bombas are my favorite socks (& my husband loves them, too). They seem to have more cushion than other socks and certainly outlast the others. Bombas donates socks 1:1 to unhoused individuals.

  • LOOOOVE my bombas! The ankle socks are the BEST. Comfy fit, awesome cushion.

    Feedback

    The no-show socks were awesome at FIRST, but after a few months of wear started losing some elasticity and some of the rubbery grip on the heel and ended up slipping off of my foot inside of my shoe - super annoying. Unfortunately had to toss them, so I won't be buying this style again. But the other styles are still going strong!

  • I have bombas socks. They fit well and are well made. I will buy more in the future.

    High quality sock. Worth it.
