Upcoming review: Ames Walker Microfiber Travel Socks

I recently received this information and an offer for a sample pair of socks from AmesWalker.com. The review will probbaly come after my vacation, since I doubt I'll get the socks in time to try them out this time around. However I thought the information in the email might be useful:

Millions of people will be traveling to visit friends/loved ones for the holidays. While overbooked flights and bumper to bumper traffic are always a concern, not enough attention is given to the health risks associated with extended travel. Travelers use compression travel socks while traveling to help prevent blood clots (deep-vein thrombosis) – a potential killer. Even healthy people can get blood clots in their legs during long flights and long car rides. To help minimize the risk, AmesWalker.com offers Microfiber Travel Socks, which offer the following benefits:

· Help promote venous blood flow in the legs
· Help prevent leg swelling and discomfort
· Reduce the chance of blood clot formation in a DVT
· Improve circulation in legs
