Lululemon is one of our favorite shopping destinations for high-performance clothing. But the Canadian brand has so much more than workout gear — they also make the ideal components for a travel outfit.
From silky-soft leggings to sweat-wicking tees, we have curated a list of the best buys to keep you comfortable and put together for your next trek through TSA. Our selection includes Lululemon bestsellers like the Define Jacket and Everywhere Belt Bag of course, but also vacation-ready styles and travel accessories that have been hiding in plain sight, such as stylish running sneakers and airy skorts for strolling around a new city. Ahead, our picks.
At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.
Layers are perhaps the most important part of vacation packing, so we’ve rounded up some of the best Lululemon hoodies and jackets to wear from the plane to your hotel room, like the brand’s half-zip pullovers. This fleece-lined hoodie, which comes in an oversized fit, features handy details like thumbholes and a front pocket, and the tall collar can be zipped up when it gets chilly.

The next essential you’ll need for your travel outfit is a versatile top.

When it comes to versatility, you can’t beat a basic T-shirt. This ribbed number gets our vote since it can easily be dressed up or down. It has a high enough crew neckline to function as a great layering piece with overalls or blazers, while the fitted silhouette and slightly cropped length look chic with skirts and high-waisted bottoms. On the practical front, the tee is made in the cult-favorite Nulu fabric that wicks away sweat and dries quickly.
