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.

  • I have many Bombas socks! Mostly I buy the Merino wool socks but also have a few pairs of the ankle socks for my sneakers(cotton)

  • I only wear Bombas socks. I use to have many different variety but decided to make it easy and get rid of the rest. They never bunch up in the toe and they are my favorite.

  • Fabulous socks! So comfy and high quality

  • I love my bombs and have from the ankle socks to the compression socks. They are the socks I turn to the most and recommend for those who like a plusher sock!

  • I have a problem with the callouses on my feet. The Bombas helped me with that. They were super comfortable and looked great. The only thing is after a few washings, they weren't as good, but still better than adidas.

  • These socks are the most comfortable thing I’ve ever worn! They hug my high arch and give it a little extra support. Bombas is all I wear anymore.

  • These are a daily staple with any outfit I choose. Comfortable, stylish, and soft after every wash allows me to rely on these socks for any adventure.

  • One of the most comfortable socks I have ever worn. Only weakness is durability, they seem to wear out quicker than others of same price point.

  • These socks are my holy grail. My mom buys my family socks for Christmas every year and one year I received a pack of Bombas athletic socks. Ever since then they are the only sock brand I wear. From their athletic socks to their crew socks for work, I am a completely team Bombas. They are a quality brand of socks that last a long time and remain in great condition.

  • Very comfy and great for sporting activities

  • Got this last year and still using it now. Affordable and comfy and lots of colors to collect lol!

  • I can’t wear any other socks after Bombas - I have tiny feet so I love how these are so tight around the mid foot. Makes me feel like they are going to stay on!!

  • Love all of their socks. Also that they give to homeless people.

  • They are so soft and comfortable! But might make you go half a size up because they are very thick! My husband loves these socks

  • They had me at no seams and arch support. They kept me with their buy one give one program to help people in need.

  • These socks are the best running socks. I wished they weren’t so expensive!

  • They're not very comfy - pretty tight and leave marks on your feet

  • Wish I could afford to only wear Bombas socks! They’re expensive but so worth it! And they donate when you buy.

  • My husband is quite possibly the pickiest human being alive. When I say, picky, I mean that it took me seven tries to find a pair of underwear that he liked when I got him a pair of his first Bombas, He fell in love. He immediately asked me to order another set of six. Good job Bombas you have my husband’s approval.
