Best Flight Socks

woolm110

Hey Everyone,

Travelling to America in a couple of weeks and heard that its a good idea to invest in some flight socks to avoid DVT.

Just wondered if anyone had any recommendations? I've never had to buy them before so I've no idea what's good and what's bad.

Thanks!

I've used Scholls & Boots own. One thing I was advised early on was to buy by calf measurement rather than foot size as that is most critical.(I think it was the former that actually stated calf measurements but I bought them years ago.) Remember to get up and walk around - there are exercises you can do too.
This page has some of the exercises:

have a great flight

To avoid DVD's just turn off the in flight entertainment, this saves paying out for socks.
