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.

  • Bombas socks are probably the most comfortable socks I've ever warn. I've had mine for years, and since then, they've come out with such a wide variety of products. I think they're great for hiking and distance running. Their company is worth every penny.

  • I absolutely love my Bombas socks. I've had them many MANY years and they continue to hold up. They don't slip in my shoes and feel just right. Not too bulk and not too thin.

    Price price price. This is what holds me back from replacing all my socks with Bombas.

  • Quality socks that outlast other pairs of socks I've purchased. Bomba also donates a pair of socks for every pair purchased.

    Feedback

    Cost obviously is very high for what you are getting.

  • Very well made socks and great customer service. My favorite socks every worth all the money and their product mission is well worth supporting.

  • BEST SOCKS EVER. I have never had a preference on socks, they were more of a utility. Until I tried Bombas. They are so comfortable, fit my feet great, are super durable (in 2 years haven't had any rips). I will always overpay for them!

    Feedback

    Price range for slightly lower quality for lower price.

  • Great and comfy and good for working out. Not super durable and lots have holes after only a year of use.

    Feedback

    Durability is lower than anticipated.

  • I honestly was a bit unsure about these socks because of how expensive they were, but having tried them out I can feel the difference in quality from other socks. They’re just thicker and well-made and they don’t slip!

  • best running socks in the world, incredible product lifecycle policies

    Pricey

  • I wear bombas everyday as my socks with sneakers. They hold up really well in the wash/dryer as well! They definitely are expensive for socks, but they last a really long time so I think it is worth it.

  • I hate that I love these socks so much. I personally said I'd never buy these because I thought they were just overpriced socks. I received a few pairs of Bombas socks with a gift recently and I couldn't believe the difference vs. my typical cheap socks I buy. There so comfortable and perfectly cushioned. I now hate when my Bombas are in the wash and have to go back to normal socks for the day. Looks like I'll be buying more pairs!

  • I got these in my stocking for Christmas and honestly wish I had gotten more pairs. Thick and plush, they're a great workout sock. Also love the extra elastic around that almost acts as an arc support.

  • The no show socks are the comfiest and nicest socks I own. Highly recommend.

  • I'm not sure how they made socks that keep me from getting blisters, but they did. These are the only socks I will wear now. They have been live savers.

    The product is perfect. There's a lot of bundle options available online that can be a little difficult to comb through.

  • Love my Bombas socks. All time favorite for under boots or sneakers. High quality, well designed to avoid irritation from seams, perfect padding. Especially love that there is reasonable sizing. I have really long feet and the two sizes most brands offers leaves my toes squeezed. These don't.

    Feedback

    Would love if they lasted longer (and they last a while). But under the balls of my feet wear out sooner than other areas.

  • I bought a pair of these socks on an impulse purchase and definitely had some shopper's regret. And yet, I am always looking for my Bombas socks now. I didn't think these socks could possibly be that good or better than average socks. These are great and will spoil you that you don't want to settle on other socks.

    Feedback

    Just so expensive!

  • I've been buying Bombas for years; over time, I have just replaced all my other low-rise socks.

    Feedback

    More logo-less neutrals for high-rise socks would be awesome, because then I can replace the rest!

  • great socks! easy ordering process. Really comfy and cute.

    Feedback

    kind of expensive, but such is life!

  • I love bombas socks - specifically the no show kind. I essentially exclusively own these now. Think they are great quality for a great price.

    Feedback

    Noticed with the thicker high SKU they can get holes in them kind of easily.
