Lightweight and comfortable, The Outlier Futureworks are a solid pair of travel pants, although we wish they were more breathable!

The Teva Original Sandals are ideal for both wet and dry environments. And while they won’t work at formal occasions, they’ll fit basically everywhere else.

The Aer Travel Wallet will hold your travel documents, passport, cards, and cash on the road. But accessing your passport & cash is a bit cumbersome.

The Away Insider Packing Cubes are a great choice to pair with Away luggage since they fit inside perfectly. Otherwise, there are better cubes out there.
