| Ok, what makes bomba socks so great? I keep hearing about them and thought I would treat myself. We make good money have no debt $66 for 4 pairs of socks?? I don’t know how to justify that…convince me! |

| They're okay but I tend to save them as presents. The slight arch support is what makes them nice but you can find other brands with this feature. |

| I only pay that much for wool socks - e.g., Darn Tough because they'll replace them if they wear out or get holes |

| Bombas aren’t that good— they wear out too fast. But yes, you might have to pay $10-25/pair for really good socks these days. |

| They're not that great. I've tried a lot of fancy socks and still like my Costco socks best. |

| I find them particularly comfortable and very cute but....agree that they are overpriced! I have mostly gotten them as gifts! |

| DH and I primarily wear bombas. The thinner/dress ones wear out faster. But the regular ones have held up really well. Much better than the Nike socks our kids wear. We both like the thickness, arch support and they do not slide down. DH also wears their slippers and I wear their compression socks when we fly. |

Costco socks are great! |

| They are extremely comfortable to me. Not itchy or seams you can feel. Yes they're expensive and don't last that long. But they feel the best to me. |

| Easily found in Marshall’s for less |

They just announced that they're about to sell them at DSW, so guessing they'll be less there as well. |

No they are the same cost there, unfortunately |

| I was a believer for a while but last few orders I bought are full of holes within a year or so. I will try Darn Tough but Bombas are not what they used to be. |

Feetures are better
I have blister prone feet. Maybe it doesn't matter for the general population. If I wear a sock, and there is even the slightest amount of movement or friction, I will blister very quickly. I haven't had any issues since buying Feetures. Not even a slight hot spot. I will never wear anything else. I wait for sales and buy directly from their site. https://feetures.com |

I actually did NOT think they were that great. I think because the company donates a pair of socks for every pair bought (that's why each pair is so expensive) people feel good about buying them.
Personally I find Darn Tough socks to be of a higher quality. |
