I originally ordered a four pack of the ankle socks in January 2016 in turquoise blue. Still look good! February 2017 When Will I Order Again? That’s a lot of warm, happy feet! They also volunteer weekly in the shelters handing out their socks and interacting with the communities. They’ve donated one pair of socks for every pair purchased since its inception, totally over 25,000,000 pairs. Bombas, whose mantra is “bee better,” lives and breathes its brand. As someone who interacts with homeless every day while I walk the sidewalks, trails, and streets of Denver and the beautiful cities of my nomadlife, I see this need first-hand, and I’m grateful Bombas sees it, too. What’s the best part of this sock? For every pair of socks that Bombas sells, they donate a pair to homeless shelters. When the founder of Bombas read that socks were the number one most-requested item at homeless shelters, he put his might to the test and came up with a solution. We’ve also seen people experiencing homelessness all around the world. Homelessness is a tough problem around the world and in every city in the U.S. Socks for Folks Experiencing Homelessness Nary a blister has ever appeared while hiking or walking through the streets of Denver in my Bombas.

And I now wear the Quarter Socks and love them just as much. I love that they have arch support, a seamless toe, and a cushioned foot-bed that’s kept my heels happy. The heel stays put, never riding up or slipping down. The toe box comfortably houses my digits without rubbing across my toe knuckles. The toe has stayed true as well, not losing its shape nor shredding its seam. Not too tight, not loose, they are the perfect fit with their hive-like arch support. Since I don’t wear the calfs that often, this review is strictly about the ankle socks. I have two types of pairs, the Bombas ankle and the Bombas calfs. Since my first pair, I now have many others, but I keep coming back to them! Even as I trek around Europe and South America in my nomadlife, Bombas are in my pack. They are as true and fit as the first day I got them, despite over 100 200 300 wearings and washings. Although I’ve moved from Merrills to Keens for shoes, and I’ve since adopted Korkers for ice traction, the one constant for the past year two three years has been my Bombas. I loved them from the start for their giving-back attitude.Īs an urban hiker and walking traveler, I expect a lot from my feet and their footwear. I first saw the socks on a Shark Tank episode where all but one shark, Damon John, rejected the company. But I put my Bombas to the test for a year two years three years, and here’s my Bombas sock review. Bombas Socks Product Review After FIVE YEARS! Like No OtherĪs with any new product, it’s easy to write a positive review once you use it the first time.
