Read more about compression socks and long flights at Cleveland Clinic.
My colleague wrote a full review all about why pregnant, athletic, and traveling people swear by these socks.
Promising review: “I have been traveling almost every week for business for the past six years and about five years in I realized my legs would often hurt after some longer flights. I am 29 years old was very worried about having pains in my leg already. I was told by my physician to try to wear compression socks while flying.
After using this product for many months and wearing them on a few international flight, I have to say this is definitely worth the money! They are very comfortable and do not feel too suffocating while on longer flights. I have worn them upwards of 24 hours without a problem or need to want to remove them.This did help tremendously with my leg pain after flights and I highly recommend this product to anyone that is looking for a good pair of compression socks!” —Lopa Desai
