I've been thinking about travel a lot lately. It's nearly November, which means the holiday travel season is upon us, and preparing for it ahead of time helps to alleviate my stress around it. One of the many ways in which I do so is by periodically collecting a few pieces that would be great for travel. And the most important element of any travel outfit (in my humble opinion) is pants. Wear the wrong pair of pants, and your travel day is borderline ruined. We've all been there.
This fun little roundup is centered on very comfortable and very chic pants to wear on planes, trains, and automobiles. I divided it into four categories to make it even more user-friendly. So whether you're looking for leggings, sweatpants, sweater-pants, or stretch jeans, you're likely to find what you need to make your future trips more enjoyable. Scroll to shop the travel-friendly goods.
Stretchy Jeans
Re/Done's Comfort Stretch line truly lives up to its name. (Trust me—I own a pair.)
Wear these from the plane straight to dinner.
These sneaky jeans are low-key genius.
I'm pretty sure that chicer elastic-waist slouchy jeans don't exist.
A classic.
Baggy jeans aren't typically also made of stretch fabric, but these are.
People might notice these are secretly sweatpants, and that'll make them love them even more.
Sweater-Pants
Some of our editors have already tested these on flights.
These Amazon gems probably won't stay in stock for long.
I'd wear these out at night, too.
These are insanely soft, and there are several matching sweaters to pair with them from Bandier.
Well these are fun.
There's a reason these keep selling out.
Love to see that price point.
Leggings
The name says it all.
If you've tried Alo leggings, you know these are going to be good.
My love for stirrup leggings knows no end.
No one will know these are leggings.
This mossy green is so good.
Wear 'em with heels or sneakers.
Wait until you see how cool these look on.
Nike leggings are always a vibe.
Sweatpants
The matching sweatshirt is highly recommended.
Very intrigued by this acid-wash pair.
These beauties come in black, too.
Kind of the perfect basic sweatpants, if you ask me.
This tennis-inspired pair is both trendy and timeless.
Fashion girls love The Frankie Shop's sweats.
The split hem makes these infinitely cooler.
For when you just want something simple and safe.
