13 Must-Buy Everlane Travel Essentials, According to Our Readers

The foundation of every traveler’s capsule wardrobe is the basic tee. It’s on every packing list, no matter where you’re headed or what’s on the itinerary. This boxy, cotton T-shirt is as versatile as it gets—and it has that perfectly soft, worn-in feel. Choose from over a dozen colors, with or without a chest pocket.

This shirt is exactly what it says it is: a boxy, slightly oversized button-up made of 100% cotton yarn that drapes so nicely it might as well be silk. Dress it up with jeans and heels or swap in sneakers for a classic look for a day of exploring. The layering piece comes in a number of solid colors and stripe combos.

Our readers agree on the importance of a classic turtleneck in your wardrobe. This snug-fitting number from Everlane is made of fine-ribbed Supima cotton and stretchy elastane for extra comfort. Tuck it into your favorite pair of jeans and layer it under a vest, packable jacket, or sweater.

Is there any piece of clothing cozier than a cardigan? This sweet, cream-colored favorite offers a relaxed fit and a polished V-neck design. Made of a chunky, ribbed organic cotton material, this soft cardigan is the perfect companion for a chilly plane ride.

A packable jacket is game-changing when traveling to a destination with varied temperatures. This Everlane option can be worn over a turtleneck during the fall and underneath a wool coat come winter. It’s sustainably made, features handy side pockets, and is available in a few different colors, from navy and black to olive green and mustard yellow.

These straight-leg Performance Chinos are one of the brand’s bestsellers. Sweat-wicking and quick-drying with four-way stretch, the pants come in nearly a dozen colors and a few different fits—slim, athletic, or straight.

There’s nothing that completes your packing list for a hot and humid getaway quite like a pair of breezy shorts. With a straight fit and elastic drawstring waist, this linen option can be dressed up or down for days out gallery-hopping that run straight into cocktail hour. It’s one of those items that will get multiple wears on a warm-weather trip.

An off-white trouser is a must-have, largely for its versatility. Whether you’re headed to the office, exploring a new museum, or want a more comfortable alternative to denim, a high-waisted pant like this will always look polished.

Everlane travel essentials extend to bags, too, and our readers love the ease of the Transit bag. Made of 100% recycled polyester, it features an adjustable shoulder strap, a main zippered pouch with an internal divider, and not one but two zippered exterior pockets for maximum organization. There’s no wonder it’s a top contender for the best travel fanny pack.

Every traveler needs a good tote—and we adore this sleek, roomy Studio bag made from premium Italian leather. It features an adjustable shoulder strap, a snap closure, and a few pockets to keep small items organized. This is one of those bags you’ll have forever; grab it in cognac (pictured), light taupe, porcini taupe, or black.

One of the ultimate travel essentials is a durable weekender bag for quick getaways. This Traveler favorite— available in black, warm quartz, nutria green, and ocean cavern—can be stuffed with everything you need for a long weekend trip, thanks to its wide bottom. It’s made from 36.6 renewed plastic bottles, is water-resistant, and has an adjustable strap as well as a carry handle.

A staple white sneaker is the travel essential for almost every vacation. This leather option is made with recycled materials, and is simple in design yet still adds something to your outfit. With a rubber outsole for extra durability and slightly tapered toe, it’s a supportive shoe without looking clunky. Make a fancier outfit more casual (and vice versa) with this pair—or simply rock them with straight leg jeans when on the go.

Rounding out our list of the most-purchased Everlane pieces by our readers is this best-selling sandal. It comes in go-with-anything colors like black, cream, brown, and taupe, and is an essential addition to your suitcase for warm-weather trips. Made of 100% leather, the sandal has a wide fit, a square toe, and a slight wedge for support. The Day Crossover sandals are among our favorite slides, thanks to the double-folded criss-cross straps, which are designed to reduce chafing. It doesn’t hurt that they’re especially easy to pack.
