Something for the guys

I’ve had a few requests for men’s travel wardrobe ideas, and will be working on something in the coming weeks. In the meantime, I wanted to share a recent find: travel pants for men.

Le Monsieur is in the process of replacing some of his wardrobe basics that not longer fit or are outdated or worn out. He tried on these Slim Traveler Pants from Banana Republic and liked them so well he purchased in two colors. I’m hoping to convince him to replace at least one pair of the heavier jeans he usually packs with these when we next travel.

The fabric has some stretch for comfort. And it’s lighter and more refined than denim, so they can dress up to Smart Casual. If you have trouble getting your guy out of jeans, the 5-pocket style might make these more palatable.

Slim Traveler Pants | Tapered Traveler Pants

Some colors are on sale. (They seem to run TTS. The fit isn’t as slim on him as on the model above, but there’s also the Tapered Traveler Pants if your guys prefer a more relaxed fit.)
