Bombas is a comfort focused apparel brand with a mission to help those in need. The organization launched in 2013, after the founders learned that socks are the #1 most requested clothing item at homeless shelters. From there, they set out to solve that problem, donating a pair of socks for every pair they sell. How do you donate a lot of socks? You sell a lot. And how do you sell a lot? You make the most comfortable socks in the history of feet. Millions of pairs sold and donated later, Bombas is continuing to innovate with new socks and apparel while creating a positive impact on the community where we all work and live.

In 2009, we took the stance to reimagine what was once a stagnant staple and transform socks into one of fashion’s most exciting accessories. By unlocking the creative potential of an open canvas too often overlooked, we ignited a worldwide cultural movement that has attracted visionary artists, athletes and icons to embrace our positive message of individuality, movement and self-expression. In the years since, our vision has expanded from toe to head with a full line of colorful apparel styles for a life in motion… because why should feet have all the fun? Through a bold combination of technological innovation, superior comfort and fresh artistic design that has become the foundation of our brand, Stance apparel can now be found in over 40 countries for anyone looking to defy convention. We are Stitched Different®.
