Travel clothing has come a long way.

Thankfully, we’ve all moved on from the head-to-toe all-khaki safari wear with way too many pockets. You don’t dress like that at home so why would you dress like that to travel?

It doesn't have to be that way.

Your clothes can look good and travel well.

You shouldn’t have to buy a new wardrobe just for travel. That’s a waste of money. Instead, pack your regular clothes that are best suited to the road.

To travel well, clothes should be versatile, durable, and easy to clean (or able to be reworn).

If you wouldn't wear something at home, don’t wear it for travel. You should be comfortable in your clothes. You shouldn’t feel like you’re wearing a costume. 

We recommend versatility and value, not wasting money. Spend your money on experiences, not more stuff.

Start with the travel clothing roundup and learn how to build a small—but versatile—capsule wardrobe.

One of our favorite tricks for packing less is to do laundry when you’re traveling.

If you’re traveling for two weeks or more, you can do laundry (or pay for wash-and-fold) during your trip. Doing laundry means you can bring half as many clothes—or less. As a bonus, one load of laundry is way cheaper than checking another bag to hold that second week of clothes. 

We love merino wool clothes for traveling because wool is naturally odor resistant. You can re-wear merino wool clothing between washes without smelling bad. Check out some of our favorite merino wool brands. 

Finally, we have detailed buyer’s guides for every piece of clothing you might need.

Here's a list of the most popular guides:

• Pants
• T-shirts
• Shoes
• Underwear
• Blazers

Happy travels,
