For a comfortable day of travel:
I love finding comfortable travel wear. I still remember taking my first ever flight with my family to Los Angeles. My mom bought us crisp (and stiff!) new outfits to look stylish on the plane. Thankfully times have changed! Leisure wear is an entire clothing category and yoga pants are now acceptable outside of the gym. Whether it is a day on the road or a day on a plane, my go-to list includes:
- Merino wool tights and t-shirt …breathable, comfy, keeping you warm and dry, merino wool items are easy to layer or be worn on their own
- Scarf that doubles as a blanket for layering up in colder weather or when your #vanlife travel partner likes to run the AC. Also a great way to dress up your outfit when needed!
- Comfortable slip on shoes, these ones double as slippers at night to keep your feet toasty
- Down jacket for a coat that is easy to stuff away when not needed, but plenty warm to sit around the campfire at night
Merino wool products in general are great for van travel because they tend to not hold body odor unlike a lot of other athletic wear materials plus and they drive quickly after a quick rinse in your van sink when you don’t want to do a load of laundry on the road. I love using this handy laundry bar soap by Ethique for a quick scrub. Eco-friendly and lasts a long time!
What do you wear to keep you comfortable on long road trips?
