It’s not everyday that an A-lister as trendsetting as Hailey Bieber grants fans a glimpse into her most-used products, but the model and mom did just that yesterday: posting a lineup of the items she “couldn’t live without” during and after her pregnancy on Instagram Stories. Amidst the stretch mark–alleviating creams, Rhode beauty essentials, baby carriers, and nursing bras (from Skims, no less!), Bombas’ editor-approved compression socks also made the cut.

While compression socks are typically more practical than stylish, that’s far from the truth when it comes to the Bombas Women’s Everyday Compression Sock 3-Pack: the exact one called out by Bieber and one of the best Bombas socks to shop in 2025. Coming in a range of hue options like Bieber’s own Berry Blue Mix (a blue, purple, and pink combination) or the Navy Sage Mix for those with a soft spot for green and gray tones, the socks are equipped with a medium level of compression, meaning you can easily walk around in them without feeling like your blood circulation is being cut off.
The compression is great for relieving pain and swelling associated with standing on your feet for long parts of the day, traveling, and even intense exercise (similar to the trending recovery boots currently being sold by brands like Nike). Other perks of the Bombas bestseller include its signature honeycomb-patterned arch support, elasticity that helps the socks stay on your calves without sliding down, seam-free fabric around the toes that won’t rub against your sneakers, and strategic cushioning that’s lighter in the calves and stronger in the ankles to promote comfort as well as breathability. Worried your new purchase will get smaller in the wash? Don’t be, as its long-staple cotton fabric is immune from shrinking, not to mention being soft and durable against wear and tear.
But compression socks aren’t just a pregnancy essential — they’re great for wearing while traveling on a flight, too. Many celebrities have co-signed compression socks as the ultimate way to ensure proper blood flow when in the air; fans include Jessica Alba, who said she never travels without them in a past interview, Lupita Nyong’o, and Harrison Ford. Your favorite stars have also used them as maternity essentials like Bieber. Ilana Glazer, for example, has been known to breastfeed while wearing a pair of trusty compression stockings.
Compression socks have gone viral on TikTok many times, especially through videos filmed by healthcare professionals that tout their many health benefits, including preventing the formation of varicose veins and decreasing the risk of blood clots that are more likely when you’re sedentary for extended periods of time (read: trapped in the middle seat). “It is important to wear the right size for you,” a nurse that racked up over 150,000 likes on her TikTok ode to compression socks says in a voiceover. “Compression socks should fit tighter than usual socks but not be painful enough to make your feet or legs numb.” We couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
Other highly popular clips show off fashion influencers styling their compression socks, accompanied by captions like “with all the standing and dancing, compression socks are a must for me at concerts.” One such content creator, known for her compression socks–powered OOTDs, paired white, sheer ones with butter-yellow skirt and corset top coordinates before a Sabrina Carpenter concert — effectively confirming their fashion-forward appeal.

Whether you choose to don them under lounge-worthy sweatpants, show off the Bombas socks’ color-happy looks by wearing shorter bottoms (may we suggest the Skims Cotton Jersey Boy Short that also made Bieber’s list of recommendations?), or tap into your athleticism by matching them to the adidas Adisport Sprinter Shorts that just appeared on the Lyst Index’s Q2 2025 hottest products roundup, your travels, workouts, and typically exhausting days at work won’t ever be the same.
And with Bieber’s latest seal of approval, we just know the Bombas Women’s Everyday Compression Sock 3-Pack will sell out faster than you can say “healthy feet.”
