To begin, I am not sponsored by Bombas, but I sure as heck would LOVE to be! By far, this brand creates the most comfortable and durable sock. Not only do they make all types of socks, but also underwear, T-shirts, and slippers. They are more on the higher end of the everyday essentials, but it is worth it due to their lifetime warrantee and their mission!

The redemptive concept of Bombas is buy one give one which is front and center on their website where it talks about their mission and long term goals. The company is based out of NYC and the founders wanted to provide the #1 asked for thing amongst homeless people which is socks. So what they did was design a specific pair of socks with technology to keep peoples foot comfortable and warm, while the sock kept its shape. For example, here is also the goal when making this specific sock for homeless people:

  • “An antimicrobial treatment extends wearability between washes.
  • Versatile sizing to fit a wide range of body types.
  • Darker colors, to show less visible wear.”

Then the company partnered up with 3,500 organizations around the country to pass out essential clothing to homeless people in their community through shelters. For example, I buy a pair of socks, then Bombas would donate a pair to a local shelter near Grove City and distribute them within 12 months. They didn’t stop their either. Now they sell the second and third thing asked which is underwear and t-shirts.

Over the course of time, Bombas has donated over 75,000,000 essential clothing items….

Talk about redemptive! Because I am so moved and inspired by this company, I plan on being a loyal customer.
