Sporty travel sock for men

Whether travelling by plane, train or automobile: wear compression stockings to relieve the strain on your legs during journeys
Even people with a healthy venous system can suffer from travel thrombosis. Sitting for long periods in cramped conditions when travelling can result in heavy legs and swollen ankles. Your blood circulation slows down. The dry air and low air pressure in aeroplanes put additional strain on your body, resulting in swollen and tired legs.  

To relieve the strain on your legs when travelling, medi has developed special travel compression stockings that exert targeted compression and support your natural blood circulation. Studies show that compression stockings with graduated pressure distribution (such as medi travel®) can reduce the risk of traveller’s thrombosis.1 Your legs feel light and relaxed even after you have been sitting for a long time.  

medi travel men is a sporty travel sock for men. On longer journeys, it contributes to pleasantly light and relaxed legs. The below-knee travel sock for men consists of particularly soft, antistatic material with a reinforced sole - for high wearing comfort and easy donning and doffing.

The medi travel® men below-knee travel sock is available in the colours black and grey with an attractive ribbed look. With its sporty design, it does not differ from normal men’s socks.

Ribbed socks for the traveller. Arrive feeling fresh.

• Lack of mobility for extended periods on journeys dramatically slows the circulation of the blood.
• Cabin air pressure is less than ground air pressure; this also slows the return blood flow.
• The dry air in the cabin causes the body to dehydrate which then tends to thicken the blood.
