Bombas is a comfort-focused, basics apparel brand with a mission to help those experiencing housing insecurity. The company was founded in 2013 when it learned that socks are the No. 1 most requested clothing item at homeless shelters. Bombas currently donates the top 3 most requested clothing items by Giving Partners: socks, underwear, and T-shirts. For every item purchased, a thoughtfully designed item is donated to someone at risk of or currently experiencing homelessness. To date, Bombas has donated over 150 million items.
