Flights socks can sometimes be same old same old but these really do work. They are designed to help your tired and aching legs from swelling and aid circulation around the feet and ankles.
The graduated compression that they give (Compression Factor 12) helps resist blood pooling at the ankles and in the lower leg. Standing or sitting for long periods of time can be very dangerous and is connected to the cause of deep vain thrombosis. (DVT). These will give you added support and will help to prevent such an illness.
The special yarns used in these socks also promote a cool dry feeling, including a "cotton on the skin" knitting technique. The top of these socks have also been designed so that they fit closely without the use of elastic.
