Whether you're a frequent flier or just stepping your toes into the world of travel, there's one thing we all know for sure: dressing comfortably for a flight, especially a long-haul one, is a must. And while it may be tempting to throw on your jammies or a trusted pair of sweats, this travel editor is here to tell you that there are plenty of stylish options out there, each delivering the same coziness without the frumpiness.
All In Motion Active Light High-Rise Wide-Leg Pants Made from a blend of recycled polyester and spandex, the high-rise pants are lightweight and stretchy, providing unrestricted movement needed for travel. They're moisture-wicking, quick-drying, and feature built-in sun protection, making them a solid choice for hiking and sightseeing in addition to flights. One shopper said they love wearing them "when flying from a cold place to somewhere warm" since the material has an effortless breeziness to it.
Some people are firmly in the "comfort at all costs" camp, swearing by sweats, joggers or anything with an elastic waistband. Others insist that showing up to the airport in anything less than jeans (or what we like to call "hard pants") is completely unacceptable. The truth? It truly comes down to preference. Personally, I've never subscribed to the idea of "travel pants" or any other garment designed specifically for globetrotting. (All pants are travel pants if you wear them on a trip, amirite?)
