Specialist travel clothing is worth the investment when travelling to foreign climes. A few carefully selected items of technical clothing, amongst your holiday wardrobe, will help you meet the varying conditions of heat, humidity or cold that you might face.

Lightweight Jackets

A lightweight waterproof jacket that packs small into your bag is invaluable, whether you are in cold or humid conditions. Due to its size you’ll find it easy to pack in a day bag, so that it’s close at hand on changeable days. You’ll find a breathable jacket will also be more comfortable for longer rainstorms.

Fleece lined trousers will keep you warm, travel trousers are lightweight and quick to dry, and zip-offs give you the option of shorts for when the heat picks up.

Travel shirts and t-shirts are designed to wick sweat and keep you dry. They are also quick drying, after a wash at the hostel, and there’s no need for an iron!

Summer socks will allow moisture to evaporate keeping your feet dry in hot conditions, whilst winter socks will keep your feet warm and dry.
