Traveling can be challenging, but deciding what to wear and bring on your next trip shouldn’t be. Gone are the days of worrying about how to fit an iron into your already-crowded luggage or which garments will keep you comfortable during overnight flights. Today, there are pants specifically designed for travel — so you can focus on the more important things like where you put your damn passport.
At a Glance: The Best Travel Pants Online for Men
How We Chose the Best Travel Pants for Men
When compiling a list of the best travel pants for men, we chose styles that our editors have worn, tested, and reviewed on various trips. Our final analysis also considered fabric, fit, price, and consumer reviews.
The best travel pants for men are made from sweat-wicking and breathable materials. You want to find a pair that not only helps regulate your body temperature but also provides enough stretch so you don’t feel restricted during your journey. We also sought wrinkle-resistant fabrics, such as spandex, rayon, or polyester, which allows you to hop out of your seat and into a sales meeting (if needed).
Another key factor was fit. As any experienced shopper knows, pants come in a wide variety of shapes, including straight, slim, relaxed, tapered, and wide leg — the list goes on. But when you’re sitting for hours on end, you want something that will let you comfortably move your legs, won’t trap odor or other unwanted moisture, and won’t cut off circulation to the areas where you need it most. Which is why we gravitated towards relaxed and straight silhouettes.
The Best Travel Pants Online for Men
To sort through all the options, our fashion editors rounded up a list of the best travel pants you can buy online from sites like Rhone, Lululemon, Amazon, and more. From classic chinos to streetwear styles, these travel-ready slacks will become just as essential on your packing list as your favorite headphones. Shop them all now.
DU/ER Relaxed Taper Pants
These cotton-blend pants by DU/ER are a no-brainer for those longer hauls, thanks to their sweat-wicking, stretchy material. They range in sizes 30 to 40, and come in thirteen different color options.
Lululemon ABC Jogger Pants
Lululemon is our go-to brand for all things comfortable, and these ABC Jogger Pants are no exception. A best-seller on their site, they’re a casual option that can be disguised as a dressier chino, depending on what you wear for a top.
Rhone Commuter Pants
Hopefully, you don’t have to walk “500 miles ” for your commute, but if you do, this pair of Rhone pants is up to the challenge. They’re stretchy and non-restricting and can be paired with a tee, button-down, and everything in-between.
Jack Archer Jetsetter Pants
Jack Archer makes performance-grade apparel for men that is flattering, durable, and breathable. Currently on sale for more than 40%, these Jetsetter pants are the only thing you need to bring (besides a toothbrush, obviously) on your next overnight trip.
Kühl Renegade Pants
If you want something a bit rougher and tougher, add these KÜHL pants to your cart immediately. For less than $100, they help safeguard you from the sun’s harmful rays, allow for a wide range of movement, and are the ideal travel companion for hiking excursions and other outdoor activities.
Everlane The Performance Traveler Pants
We don’t know what we like better about Everlane’s Commuter pants: between the tapered ankles (which can help with circulation during flights and long road trips) and a flexible waistband, they’re an easy win for any pro traveler.
Mack Weldon Radius Flex Jogger
If you hadn’t read the product name, you would never have known that these Mack Weldon pants are actually joggers. And while they look more like sleek slacks, they promise the same cozy fit that your favorite pair of sweatpants provides.
Travis Matthew Legacy Pants
Although Travis Matthew is technically a golf brand, you can still wear their best-in-class pants on (and off) the green. They have a relaxed fit, multiple different size options, and plenty of internal and external pockets.
Champion Sweatpants
If you really want to commit to a casual vibe while traveling, try Champion’s viral sweatpants. Thanks to their streetwear aesthetic, they never look sloppy and are available on Amazon for less than $30.
Vuori Coronado Pants
I can’t remember the last trip I went on without rocking Vuori — their clothes feel like they’re made with travel in mind. This no-frills pair of pants is not only easy to wear, but they can also help regulate your body temperature — in case your seat neighbor decides to blast the plane’s AC without your consent.
REI Co-Op Trailmade Pants
If you plan on hitting the trails this summer, you better bring these REI Co-Op pants with you. Because whether you’re trekking up the Tetons or are backpacking across Yellowstone, unpredictable elements are no match for these rugged slacks.
Gap ’90s Loose Khakis
One of our Rolling Stone editors wore these on a recent trip and said, “Most of the “travel pants” I’ve used have been stretchy and comfy, but I don’t like the look. These Gap chinos are great because, visually, you wouldn’t be able to guess that they have some stretch. They look like classic Nineties pants, largely thanks to the comfortable baggy silhouette, but they feel like a modern pair of trousers — whether I’m flying for two hours or 10.”
Bonobos Chino 2.0 Pants
Bonobos makes some of the best garments for the guy on the go. These pants have enough pockets to store travel essentials like your phone, wallet, and passport, and due to their cotton and spandex material, your bottom half is actually able to breathe.
Awearness Kenneth Cole Chino Pants
Kenneth Cole crafted these simple slacks with a Rayon material known for its wrinkle-resistant properties. So whether you’re sitting all day in these chinos or are stuffing them into your duffle for a quick jaunt, you can throw them on without worrying about unwanted creases.
Faherty Terry Pants
After a while, it can start to seem like comfortable jeans are a myth — they’re often too stiff and never stretchy enough. That is until these Faherty Terry Pants came along. With a buttery-soft feel and smart shape, you’ll want to grab a pair in all sixteen colors. Packing for your next trip? Consider it done.
