No Solo Travel With These SocksBy Ingrid F., OR in May, 2012
• I REALLY wanted to like these socks, but must admit my defeat to them. The material is nice, as is the design, but unless you have an assistant to help you put them on--forget it! I am not an obese person, and I used some common sense in ordering the right size (after reading previous reviews). That said . . . I have packaged these socks for return to Magellan's. I understand that compression socks must be tight to be effective for DVT, but these socks are insanely tight around the ankle. If you can get them past that point, you've got the battle won. My husband and I used our four hands to put my socks on, and even that was VERY difficult. Once on, they felt good, but I will be traveling solo this fall, and can't afford the expense of a second person along simply to help me put on my compression socks. I am in the minority with this negative review, but I would still think twice before ordering this particular pair of socks. Caveat emptor!
Women's Support Trouser SocksBy Cindy R., WI in March, 2012
• Just returned from Mexico for a medical mission and wore the socks on the long days of flight travel at the beginning and end of my trip. Loved how my legs did not swell and felt very comfortable all day. Would really like to get another pair in white which was not available at the time of ordering. Thank you for comfortable legs!
Excellent socks, lasted daily useBy R. K., CA in March, 2012
• Great support and goes with everything. I wear them with my dress flat shoes and heels. I have all 3 colors.
great socksBy Jean W., IL in March, 2012
• I love the bubble toe. Other support stockings I have worn feel tighter and tighter on the toes as the day goes on. With these I never feel the need to take off my shoes and pull the toe looser. I wear these every day, not just for travel.
My only complaint is with the color choices. There should be more. And what they call "tan" is actually cream.
sock is best for select feetBy Chris S., MN in March, 2012
• Sock worked well as compression sock, and looks nice. But the foot is best for size 9 ladies foot (probably a B width), and not fit so well for my size 8 (and C width) foot.
Great fitBy Tammy H., MI in February, 2012
• I started buying this type of sock because of the indentions left in my legs at the end of the day. These were the first I found that were over the calf style. I just love them!
What a difference!By Kimberly H., OR in February, 2012
• I travel back and forth to the east coast from Oregon several times per month. My feet always swell and hurt after the long flights. I wore these on both "legs" of my trip and what a difference, no swelling and my feet didn't feel tired when I got off the plane. Exceeded my expectations!
Foot size too longBy Marvel Z., IN in February, 2012
• The socks are very tight -- which is what they are designed to be -- but the foot of the small sock is way out of proportion to the rest of the sock. Folding under an inch at the toes or letting the heel ride up the back of the foot should not be necessary and is rather uncomfortable in a sock that costs as much as this one. I had ordered two based on the reviews but returned them.
purchased againBy chris c., FL in December, 2011
• This is my second order of these socks. Not a replacement, just a second color. I have been very pleased with these socks even on a seventeen hour flight.
Difficult to put onBy Karen R., MD in November, 2011
• Wearing these socks have added five minutes to my dressing time of a morning, but once on, the compression really feels good. I plan to wear them on a flight to Sydney.
SocksBy Sally L., CA in June, 2011
• They fit great and feel good too. Hopefully the support is working.
What a difference!!By Nijole Ladd L., FL in May, 2011
• I fly to Paris each summer and this time I wore these socks. For the first time, with the support of the socks I felt none of the restlessness in my legs and tiredness I usually go through. These socks felt comfortable, and totally enhanced my trip in a good way. I'll never fly without them on again!
Outstanding functionality and appearanceBy S D S., TX in March, 2011
• For support stockings, these look very nice and work splendidly. I took two pairs on a two-week trip and washed out a pair each night. They dried quickly and helped me keep moving!
Travel socksBy Laura R., CA in March, 2011
• I purchased these travel socks for my husband and myself for traveling long distances on airplanes.( back and forth to Europe)
so far they are very comfortable easy to put on and wash out and dry quickly.
Great ProductBy Eleanor W., MA in November, 2010
• I have been wearing these socks for years for any flight longer than an hour. They really do help tremendously to avoid swelling in the air and make you feel better in general. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that they are quite tricky to put on, but once on are very comfortable and don't look any different from regular trouser socks. They also wash and dry well by hand in the hotel sink.
saved my lifeBy Linda B., CA in October, 2010
•
Usually, I have a lot of swelling in the legs and feet on an 11 hour plane ride. With these stockings, I had none! They were a life saver. I recommend them!!
comfortableBy Teresa S., MD in July, 2010
• Slightly difficult to get on, but very comfortable and did the job on long flight to Europe.
Support SocksBy Myra A., NJ in July, 2010
• Great support hose. Wide, non-constricting calf; great under trousers for travel and home use.
Comfortable travel legsBy Anonymous in July, 2010
• This was the first time I've tried compression socks for travel, and they were great! We had a long haul to southern Africa, but I had no leg swelling or cramping.
Women's support socksBy Barbara M., NC in June, 2010
• I just flew back from Rome after a great trip with Amber Roads Tour of central Italy. I bought the travel socks to use to reduce the edema I had gotten from previous shorter flights. They worked very well. They were hard to put on, but well worth the effort. I wore them on the tour bus, but we had a small group and short rides so I did not really need the compression. They were comfortable and washed and dried easily though so I used them as socks along the way.
Nice HoseBy MaryAnn C., TX in June, 2010
• Wore these on a three hour flight to see how comfortable they were. Wound up wearing them all day. They were comfortable but the band did start to dig into my leg toward the end of the day. Length of foot is way too long; had lots of extra material I had to spread over my foot and stuff into my shoe. hard to get on but okay once they are on.
Love 'emBy Gail C., WA in May, 2010
• I just returned from a trip to Europe. I wore the support socks while flying. They really helped reduce swelling in my legs. They were difficult to put on because they fit snuggly but felt terrific while I was wearing them. From now on I won't fly without them!
socksBy Johanna R., BC in March, 2010
• These are more or less what I expected and are a nice product. Quite comfortable and easy to care for. I feel they need a little more stretchiness as I find them harder to put on than my other support socks. Good overall
Most necessary travel geerBy Deborah O., CA in February, 2010
• If you are going to fly coach and get off the plane feeling like you flew business you need these socks! You can go to sleep and wake without your legs aching or feeling like you have even been in plane.
Women's Suppport Trouser SocksBy Joan G., FL in October, 2009
• I wore these socks on my trip to Europe. I come every year in my work to Madrid, Spain and usually my feet swell badly.
Well, I used these socks for the first time on my trip this past September 19, 2009 and when I removed them, there was no swelling. I was pleasantly amazed and look forward to using them again and again. I had to pull them on but it was not too difficult and the socks were very comfortable.
I was glad not to have to worry about swelling
Travel socksBy Carolyn T., MO in July, 2009
• These socks are a little hard to put on, but feel very comfortable once in place. These would probably not fit a person with large legs, however. I ordered these to wear on a long air flight and for the peace of mind that they would aid in circulation and the prevention of blood clots. I have laundered them and they look new.
Women's Support Trouser SocksBy Nancy T., CA in July, 2009
• I bought these for the plane ride since I have circulation problems and they were ok, but I liked the previous silk ones better.
Comfortable and nice lookingBy Lynn H., OH in May, 2009
• I wore these socks on two overseas flights. They felt very comfortable. I did not have the usual restless feeling in my legs and, at the end of the day, was really glad I had worn them.
These are great!By Kim D., OH in April, 2009
• I wore these on 2 trans atlantic flights and had no swelling. They were comfortable and performed very well.
Fabulous productBy Renee M., NY in April, 2009
• I'm pregant and just returned from an international trip.Boy, these socks were a MUST! And not only for the flight itself but also for those days where my legs just wouldn't carry me.I would wake up with leg pain /cramps and have my husband help me put on these socks and wonder of wonders,the pain would completely disappear after a while of wearing these amazing socks.So, get them if your'e pregnant and have leg circulation problems and definitely get them if you're gonna be traveling and tend to have leg discomforts.Enjoy!!
Excellent SocksBy Anonymous in January, 2009
• These socks are just great for travel, and I would wear them for everyday also. They are comfortable and non-binding (very important for a long flight). They have an attractive pattern, and they don't look like support socks. You feel the graduated support; very comfortable. I wore them from Minneapolis to London, with a connection in Chicago, a journey of 12-13 hours each way, and the socks were just as comfortable on arrival as they were the moment I put them on. I highly recommend.
Great productBy Glennly B., NC in November, 2008
• After wearing these on a recent flight I had no edema in my ankles for the first time in many years. They work like magic and are comfortable.
By Nicole P., CA in October, 2008
• Great socks. I traveled with them and use them now that my ankles are swelling due to pregnancy. They take a lot of effort to get on but they are well worth the trouble.
By Susan H., NM in October, 2008
• Were hard to get on, but really made my legs feel good after my 14 hours plane ride.
By Violet S., CA in September, 2008
• great!
By Theodora H., CO in September, 2008
• I have used your socks during international plane travel for years and find them nice looking and very comfortable. They keep my feet from swelling at all and so protect me from dvt. But I have a new use for them now. I broke both my ankles in fall and after the casts came off my ankles were very weak and my feet would turn red (a sign of blood pooling in them) and swell up. Wearing the socks has helped me recuperate. My feet feel stronger and don't turn red or swell. I can do all my excercises.
By Jane H., ON
• I wore these on two 16 hour flights in May. They did a great job of keeping my feet from swelling!! And they were very comfortable and warm too!
By Anonymous
• I've used these during overseas flights for over a year now and I like them a lot. I even find myself using them from time to time in between flights. They're very comfortable and do a good job of keeping swelling down.

• We flew from OK to Nairobi in June. I purchased a pair of these socks, hoping they would help, since we had two very longs flights. But I had to take them off about half-way over the Atlantic, they had cut down so much on my circulation that my feet were getting cold. I have thin legs but they were still much too tight.
