Ready-to-wear and standard off-the-shelf compression garments do not require a prescription. However, some of our medical and AES compression socks do require sign off from a doctor.

Both flight socks and DVT socks are alternative names for compression socks. The main difference in the compression socks is the compression level - this is what makes them suitable for different uses e.g. flying vs medical use.

Compression stockings can have side effects if the wrong size is worn, such as skin irritation, pain or discomfort, bruising or chafing, leg cramps and tenderness. It is important to order the right size and compression level for your needs. Please consult our size charts or get in touch if you are not sure, we are always happy to help.
