The airport can often be a soulless and hauntingly clinical way for men to relax before a flight. You are shuffled through a polished tiled mausoleum clutching your passport<\/a>, desperately hoping your trip isn't delayed and you might remain in travel limbo for even longer. Looking for refreshments and chairs that aren't designed for a doctor's waiting room hardly raises spirits. In front of you, you are faced with bland chain shops and bars\/pubs offering travellers the chance to drink a pint at 6.00 am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, when it comes to airports, men often can't avoid the inevitable. But, that doesn't mean you should become a product of your environment. Like in any other situation, we would expect our readers to be keen on looking their best. Regarding travel, the most important thing to remember is that your outfit should be as comfortable as it is stylish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What's Your Destination?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Focus on the end game, and the destination you are heading to. Once you step off the plane, maximise your trip and be ready to relax. No man wants to be weighed down with excessive clothing as it's 20 degrees hotter than where you came from \u2014 heading to colder climes? You don't want to be rummaging around your suitcase looking for an elusive jumper you packed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practicality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Much like when building a wardrobe of menswear staples, practicality is essential \u2014 investing in clothing that can interchange and be the foundation of many outfits. When flying, you want practical clothing that helps you overcome any unexpected hiccups -from cold air-con on the plane to a delayed flight leaving you stranded in an unfamiliar airport. That means utilising a lightweight, comfortable jacket<\/a> that will keep the chill at bay. Any footwear needs to be able to take some walking because it always seems like your gate number is on the other side of the airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Travel Essential: Jacket<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As we alluded to previously, travelling can always throw you some curveballs. Be prepared and ensure you have a jacket that prevents you from getting cold but can also be easily removed and stored. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You might love wearing your trench coat, but realistically, folding it and putting it in your bag will be a pain. We would opt for a men's workers jacket, an overshirt or a lightweight cotton jacket. It can be easily taken off and stored in a carry-on bag<\/a> should you need it. Then when the air-con is blasting on the plane, it's accessible again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
