Are these shoes good for long travel?.....like 18 hour flights?

Just want to make sure that you meant socks as these are not shoes. Yes, I used this pair for long travel...21 hours total flights. They are tight by design, but not to the point that they're too uncomfortable.

Yes......I wore them on my trip from Seattle to Amsterdam and Italy roundtrip.....very comfortable and walked all over the plane in them without shoes.....I tell everyone who travels overseas to buy them.

I was on a 2 hour then a 12 hour flight and wore them the entire day between flying and driving probably over 24 hours and no issues.

these are socks not shoes; yes we wore them for a 23 hour flight with no swelling.

I wore these on two 14 hour flights. They were very comfortable once I got them on. They are as tight as nylons to put on but certainly worth the effort

Great. I travel on airplanes all the time with them and dont have an issue. Should be fine.

I used for a 16 hour travel and I can say: YES! they are comfortable. But I don't know if they're compatible with Kindle......I used it for my ipad

This pair of headphones are quite comfy. My only issue with them is that when I wear them for a long periods, my ears start to hurt, not because of the sound, but because they don't really sit well on my ears - that's probably because my ears are shaped kinda oddly, so its not really a fault of the headphones but of my genetics. Other than that, my brother has used these for 6 hours straight at one point and had no issue whatsoever. However, these headphones are open headphones so not only will the sound leak out (other people can hear it) if you put the volume too loud, but you will be able to hear other people as well. So if the airplane is gonna be noisy, you might as well not be wearing any headphones. This pair of headphones are quite comfy.

Absolutely! The are great on any surface. I have one pair that is tucked in my suitcase specifically for travel.

Not sure my answer will help. The RelaxoBak is 18" wide; according to google, airplane seats are between 17 & 18" wide. You could call your airline and ask them the width of their seats. This would be perfect for long flights. My dh didn't think to bring his on a 12 hour flight.....

Yes, they are comfortable for 6 hours and meaby more. I do not have the kindle, I use it on my iPhone, iPod, iPad or laptop.

I strongly advise against the use of these for the purpose you suggested, if your flight is medium to long haul. Like all noise protection devices, these are heavily sprung for the reason of better noise dampening. The pressure on ear would be painful with increased time (&gt;2 hours) . Full rounded cups would be more comfortable (like pilots wear, racing pit crew, airport staff, etc..). Perhaps occupational types are better suited for your needs.

I would not recommend these headphones for longer flights. They do in fact sound great and diminish external noise just by the way they fit. However, they are not Noise Canceling headphones and have no electronic technology that diminshes external noise like the low hum of an airplane's jets. Moreover, the strength of the metal headband and the firmness of the ear cups can cause discomfort on the ears if the headphones are worn for an extended period of time (1.5+ hours). I would recommend that you search for headphones that have high ratings for comfort as well as noise canceling abilities.

I'm a woman and I ordered the medium size. I'm around 150#, wear a size 8 1/2 shoe and the Travelsox fit me just fine. They were very comfortable for the two very long flights when I went to Japan and Singapore. They also kept my legs and feet warm when I was in some places that were colder than expected.

Sorry, I only use for plane rides, and it works great for long hauls (5+ hours). It definitely makes plane rides bearable now, highly recommended.

I think so. I've worn them for a few hours with no issue. My son wears them more often and never complains about the comfort.

I just ordered a pair and will be using them for a my flight Orlando -> LAX -> Sydney at the end of August. I'll let you know how it goes.

I've used them for mountain bike riding, for two hours at most. Very comfy.

I have worn them on a 6 hour flight before. These actually to over the ears, they don't rest on them. I find them light and comfortable. And they've never failed as of this post.

I've used these on a ten hour flight and they were really good ( but I was in front of the wings, however close to three babies) Sorry I can't compare to active noise cancelling headphones.

Yes, I got them for my wife for travel. She loves them good sound and very comfortable on a long flight.
