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.

  • Wonderful socks. High socks are great for hiking and working on your feet all day. Low socks are the best I've had, they don't slip!

  • Hands down the absolute best socks. I refuse to wear anything else. Also have great undies and bras. The socks are great for my 12 hour shifts in the emergency room. The bra I have is extremely comfortable and gives great support. 10/10 recommend

  • After wearing them once, I washed them in cool water on lingerie setting by themselves. And then, dried them on a towel rack. They shrunk down to almost half their size.

  • Nice socks but not sure if the cost is justified. Similar or identical product can be found at much more affordable price point. The charitable aspect is, however, a nice point.

  • What a great cause… Bombas is a top notch sock!!.. it comes in fantastic colors, several different lengths and certainly last longer than any sock I’ve previously owned!!!.. Each sock you purchase , a pair is donated to those in need…. This sock has a lifetime guarantee!!.. a must buy

  • I love my Bombas socks. They are perfect for casual/regular wear and good for exercising. The higher end running socks are very solid for long runs.

  • Really comfortable and don’t slip down in your shoes!

  • Thick, soft, and love the webbed arch. Expensive socks but definitely a pair I think about wearing and would save for an extra cushy run or long day on my feet!

  • I bought crew socks as a stocking stuffer for my partner 3 years ago and they have kept up well. They are thick and he likes that the bottom of the sock has cushioning.

  • I love these socks. They are durable and comfortable.

  • Great socks, both my wife and I wear them.

  • Love their hiking socks!

  • My BF & I have been obsessed w/ Bombas for about 2 or 3 years now. They are a little pricey, sure, but the comfort is unparalleled and well worth it. The merino wool blend socks, to be specific, are decadent ... gave them to my dad for xmas and his jaw dropped. You may not be able to wear them in a place like FL, but put them away for your winter travels and you will thank me later. For every pair of Bombas bought, a pair goes to the homeless ... and I believe this to be true because in NYC you'll see single pairs of littered Bombas peppering the streets. What more proof do I need.

  • My friends swear by these socks!!! I have not actually tried them, but Bombas is SUCH a generous company!!! I work at a middle school, and I get to give kids these socks all of the time!! They are SUCH a generous company, which is why I wanted to give them a shotout!!! Thanks, Bombas, for investing in communities!! It is SUCH a gift to be able to give kids quality, new products that will last!!!! Way to go, Bombas!!!!! 🎉

  • These socks are comfortable and don’t slip down into your shoe. My favorite part about them is that for each pair you buy, they donate a pair of socks to someone in need.

  • The bombas compression socks are easily the best on the market. The cushioned bottoms are so comfy, and the pressure is just right. I appreciate that they wash well.

  • The best fitting, most comfortable socks of all time. I didn't know this was how socks were supposed to feel.

  • Comfy but they shrink and then become too tight!

  • These are my favorite socks for running! They’re great to wear for everyday, but the added thickness makes them perfect for support during long runs to avoid blisters. Love the colors options and the quality holds up well too!

  • Love their slippers! I give them to all family as gifts.
