Sustainable sock brand Bombas is now adding underwear to its lineup, presenting consumers with an eco-friendly and charitable solution to their everyday needs. With its socks, Bombas has been operating under a "buy one, give one" model. With every purchase, the brand donates a pair of socks to a homeless person in need.
After learning that underwear is the second most-requested essential item from the homeless community, Bombas decided to expand their offerings to include this essential item. The new underwear from the brand is made suitably, utilizing materials the keep the wearer cool, without sagging overtime. What's more is that each item was designed for human beings, not for models. This means that the underwear is comfortable and flexible for all body types.
