Why wear compression socks?
About four years ago, I noticed that my ankles had swelled terribly after a long flight from Washington, D.C. to Buenos Aires, Argentina. More recently, I have observed some swelling after flights as short as one hour (thank you middle age, you make everything so glamorous!).

So, as we were about to board a plane from D.C. to California last week, I slipped on a pair of these compression socks (which, despite their name, are in fact quite comfortable). Lo and behold, no swelling! I will definitely be wearing my compression sock on all my flights from now on.

Hi Kathy! Thank you for the compression socks. I never win anything, so hopefully the curse is broken. 😉 I love the socks and I love your blog! Happy trails!
Thank you! I’m so happy you like them both!
