Could anyone tell me what grade of flight socks they use when flying? (I can see there is two different grades)
Many thanks

Hi Cocktail,
This is a good question.
You do not say how long your flight will be.
The standard grade for DVT risk prevention on long flights is 15-20mmHg (class 1 equivalent). On the longer haul flights 20-30mmHg (class 2 equivalent) might be more effective. If you have any circulatory problems, it is best to seek the advice of a medical professional before investing in these, as some compression socks offer greater levels of compression for those who need it.
Kind regards,
Jolamine
