The journey by plane, train, bus or car is the moment when any getaway or trip officially begins. Spending several hours in a seat means choosing clothes that don't feel tight, that keep a pleasant temperature against the air conditioning and that stay fresh when you reach your destination. That's why planning your travel outfits based on the looseness of the pieces and soft-to-the-touch textures lets you face the journey in total comfort.
The combination of light basics, silhouettes that allow freedom of movement and pieces that are easy to layer is the perfect formula to move with absolute lightness during the trip.
Travel outfit ideas for women
Flowing trousers and light layers
|
For long journeys, the main premise is to avoid stiff seams or tight waistbands. An outfit that works very well consists of some trousers with a straight fall and relaxed cut, made from lightweight fabrics, combined with a soft-to-the-touch sustainable T-shirt. On top, to protect yourself from draughts or the air conditioning on transport, a light sweatshirt provides just the right insulation without adding bulk. To round off the look, some sustainable sneakers are the natural choice for walking in total comfort throughout the journey. |

Loose dresses for the car or the train
When the heat is constant throughout the journey, sustainable dresses with a loose silhouette are an excellent alternative. Since they don't put any pressure on you, they make for a comfortable posture in the seat. They can be paired with a fine shirt in linen worn open on top, using it as a light jacket during the hours of travel.
Travel outfit ideas for men
Casual, relaxed clothing for the journey
The perfect outfit relies on the looseness of the pieces. A very functional look brings together an T-shirt in organic cotton with some trousers with a relaxed cut featuring an elastic waistband or adjustable drawstring. If the final destination has a warm climate, the long trousers can be swapped for sustainable bermuda shorts.
Keeping your feet light is essential for the journey, so a pair of sustainable sneakers complete the combination, providing comfort from the very start of the trip.
Sustainable polos for a clean style
If you're looking for an alternative to the basic T-shirt but want to keep the same comfort for driving or resting, recycled cotton polos are the ideal choice. The structured collar brings a more polished feel, while the cotton knit offers a natural flexibility that adapts to movement without losing its shape. It's the perfect garment for getting off your transport looking clean and effortless.
How does the layering system help you adapt to the temperature?
One of the most common factors when travelling in summer is the sudden changes in temperature. While it's hot outside, the air conditioning inside planes, trains or buses often calls for a bit more warmth. The best solution to avoid feeling cold or hot is to dress following the three-layer rule:
-
The base: A sustainable T-shirt or a light polo, ideal for staying fresh when you step outside or arrive at your destination.
-
The outer layer: A fine shirt or an open overshirt that you can carry in hand or over your shoulders to put on as soon as you feel the transport's air conditioning or if it cools down at nightfall.
-
The reinforcement for the night or cold destinations: A light sweatshirt, essential if a long night journey, a many-hour flight or a cooler destination awaits you. It doesn't take up space in your luggage and guarantees absolute comfort.
Simplicity and usefulness on every journey
Choosing your travel outfits based purely on comfort helps simplify decisions and focus on enjoying the journey. Dressing in loose silhouettes, choosing light footwear and prioritising sustainable materials shows that functionality and timeless design are the best allies for any trip.
