Long journeys are tiring. You might be on a train, a plane or a coach for hours. The right outfit makes a big difference to how you feel when you arrive.
The rules
Comfort first. You will be sitting for a long time. Choose soft fabrics and a fit that lets you move.
Layers. Planes and trains swing between hot and cold. Layers you can add or remove are essential.
Pockets. You need somewhere safe for your phone, passport, cards and headphones.
Easy shoes. Slip-ons or trainers that come off quickly at security.
A simple formula
- A soft tee on the base
- A hoodie or knit in the middle
- A zip jacket or gilet on the outside
- Sweatpants or relaxed trousers
- Clean trainers
- A cap for tired mornings
Pick pieces with zip pockets
Zipped pockets stop things falling out when you sit or sleep. They also keep your valuables closer.
Colours
Dark, simple colours hide creases and spills. Black, navy and grey work well. Add a cream layer if you want softness.
What to avoid
- Tight jeans for long flights
- Heavy belts and lots of metal that set off scanners
- White shirts you cannot afford to spill on
- New shoes you have not worn in
Arriving well
Pack a small spare layer in your bag. If you are heading straight to a meeting or dinner, a fresh tee and a clean jacket reset the outfit.
For the return
Keep your travel outfit simple, too. You will be tired and likely a bit crumpled. A clean, dark layer helps you feel ready for home.
What we wear
Our zip jackets, hoodies and sweatpants are some of the pieces we reach for when we travel. Comfortable enough to sleep in, sharp enough to step off the train and into a day.
