Heading out of town? Guys, wondering what to pack? The best travel clothes for men are ones that layer well together without taking up much space in your luggage. Whether you’re packing for a long weekend or even longer, you really don’t need to bring as many clothes as you think. The key is selecting pieces that don’t wrinkle easily and can be dressed up or down to suit the occasions. Here are a few ideas.
Proof 72-Hour Merino Tee
From the tarmac to the trailhead, this is the perfect travel tee. Not only is the premium merino wool fabric comfortable against the skin, but its nylon reinforcement makes it extra durable and the wool’s natural anti-stink properties mean you can wear this shirt for multiple days––an ideal solution for packing light.
Banana Republic Merino Sweater Hoodie
Planes are notorious for being cold, so don’t leave your sweater in your luggage. Stylish and cozy, this luxe hoodie from Banana Republic is a go-to option. The extra-fine merino wool will trap warmth without stifling you, while the hood is ideal for keeping your head and neck insulated on chilly flights.
Lululemon Mark Healey Moon Drift Pant 30″
Made from a stretchy fabric with hidden ventilation panels, these adventure-ready pants (part of a collaboration between Lululemon and surfer Mark Healey) will keep you comfortable on a day hike and store all your essentials, too. Although they’re built for the outdoors, they’re designed to be as versatile as possible: The leg pockets are subtle and the fabric has a stylish, slightly heathered appearance, so you won’t feel out of place when you head into town.
Swiftwick Pursuit Seven Socks
Travel days involve a fair amount of walking, which is why you should consider splurging on this high-performance sock from Swiftwick. The merino wool fabric provides moderate compression and excellent temperature regulation, while its odor-blocking and moisture-wicking properties will keep your feet feeling fresh.
Kizik Men’s Vegas
It’s hard to find slip-on sneakers that are actually stylish, but grab the Vegas from Kizik and your search will be over. You can slip in and out of these stylish leather shoes hands-free (great for breezing through TSA checkpoints), and their cushy foam outsoles provide all-day comfort.
Shield Sunglasses by Julbo
Good eye protection is essential, whether you’re hitting the beach or the slopes. We love the versatility of the Shield Sunglasses by French company, Julbo. The polarized glasses have removable side shields that give you more protection when you need it. And they have a non-slip curved temple and nose grip, as well as a neck strap to help them stay in place—whether you’re horseback riding with the kids or tackling the resort waterslide.
