Theperfect travel pantis widely contested, tested, and reviewed.
But to me, the most important feature of an airplane pant is found at the ankle.
And you couldnt pay me to walk through TSA security barefoot.

Think: loafers or flats.
Once Im sitting on the plane, sometimes Ill slip out of my shoes just to stretch my feet.
Have you ever tried bending down to tie your shoes in an economy seat?
Banana Republic
Its nearly impossible, so you need something you’re able to slide your foot into without looking.
Instead, I wear thin crew socks that fit with my slip-on shoes.
Dont be afraid to make these fun since the rest of your outfit will be fairly simple.
Rothys
I like wearing colorful, statement socks with loafers its a great conversation starter.

Cotton T-shirt
Travel days can have drastically fluctuating temperatures.
Sometimes Im flying from a humid Caribbean airport to the icy Northeast.

The key to staying comfortable is layers.
I always start with a breathable cotton layer, like a short-sleeved t-shirt.
T-shirts are also super simple to pack several of.
Nordstrom
Roll up a spare t-shirt in your carry-on in case you gotta make an unexpected full change.
