How Graduated Compression Works

The knit is firmest at the ankle and loosens as it climbs, so the calf muscle can push blood back up rather than let it pool. Less swelling, less fatigue, lower thrombosis risk. Ward staff, commuters, runners and expectant mothers wear ours every day.

Flight Compression Socks for Long-Haul Travel

Why they matter on a long flight

Hours sitting still in a cramped seat let blood pool in the lower legs — the cause of the swollen ankles, stiffness and, at worst, the raised clot risk linked to long-haul travel. A 15–20mmHg graduated sock keeps blood moving when your calf muscles are idle, so you step off at Heathrow or Manchester feeling far better than you otherwise would.

On before you board

Put them on before you reach the gate rather than once you are seated, and keep them on for the whole flight. They earn their place on long coach and rail journeys too. Sized S/M to 6XL, fully tracked UK delivery, free over £30.

Our FAQ

Flight Socks FAQ

Put them on at home or at the airport before boarding. Wear them for the entire flight and for 1–2 hours afterward.

Studies show graduated 15–20 mmHg compression significantly reduces the risk of deep vein thrombosis on long flights, especially over 4 hours.

Everything we sell is knitted at 15–20 mmHg, which is the level that suits the greatest number of people: daily wear, travel, pregnancy, sport and milder clinical needs. It supports circulation, limits swelling and helps reduce clot risk on long journeys, all without a prescription. For anything more established, ask your GP whether 20–30 mmHg or 30–40 mmHg would be more appropriate.
