We set out on a mission to find 3 of the top must-have travel accessories that make travelling easier and more enjoyable for the active and adventurous traveler.

Miltteds Compression Socks
Travel compression socks go on the list of good travel accessories as they are one of the must-haves for long flights or road trips to keep your feet from swelling. Milteds is compression wear made with MILK protein for comfort, style and performance.

Anyone who spends long periods of time on their feet, or being stationary for any length of time during work or travel can lead to tired, achy legs, ankles and feet which is why compression products like Milkteds are necessary as they apply pressure, gradually decreasing from the ankle to the knee.

They use a yarn mix made from milk protein (yes drinking milk!) to create products in a range of colours with a soft, natural feel.
