Unlike everyday socks, which do little to encourage circulation and reduce discomfort during travel, these are the Italian-made socks designed for gradual compression to stimulate blood flow through the legs and feet. Though suitable for everyday wear, they are ideal for maintaining comfort during long periods of immobility through air, rail, and automobile travel, which can result in reduced circulation, leading to swelling, pain, and a risk of deep vein thrombosis. The machine-washable, latex-free Coolmax/Lycra/nylon material keeps feet dry and retains elasticity and compression through dozens of washings. Unisex sizes S (Women's 4-7), M (Women's 7 1/2-11, Men's 6 1/2-9 1/2), or L (Men's 10-14). Specify Black or Khaki. (3/4 oz.)
