I Fly Monthly, and This On-sale Sweat Set Is My Go-to for a Comfortable Travel Outfit

My go-to travel outfit has changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained consistent — I want clothing that is comfortable, presentable, and will still look good upon arrival. Plus, the outfit gets bonus points if it includes pieces I can repeat-wear throughout my trip. 

For a long time, my second qualifier eliminated sweatsuits as an option. I always felt a little too casual wearing them out of the house, and the thick material typically seemed hot and bulky for a flight. That all changed when I got a chance to try this sweatshirt and sweatpant set from Alo Yoga that’s flattering, stylish, and breathable. Plus, both pieces are included in Alo’s early Black Friday sitewide sale, where everything is marked down 30 percent and members of the free rewards program can shop early.   

Cuffed Renown Heavy Weight Sweatpant

The terry fabric of both the sweatshirt and the pants is thick, which gives it a structured look that makes me look elevated and put together, and the fabric never wrinkles — even after a long day. Despite the fall- and winter-ready material, it feels breathable, and I never feel too hot when wearing these pieces during a travel day or while lounging around my home. 

The set came in handy during a recent red-eye flight to Mexico City, where I knew I would want to be comfortable enough to sleep through the night. I like that the Cuffed Renown Heavyweight Pants are cinched at the ankles, ensuring they aren’t too baggy or dragging over my shoes. Since I’m 5-feet 2-inches tall, this really helps to make them feel polished and flattering. As for functionality, I love that the pants also have zipper pockets for storing my earbuds, my phone, and my wallet while traveling. 

Bae Hoodie

The Bae Hoodie’s design also plays a huge role in my love for this set. The cropped piece is boxy, which provides a lot of airflow. Plus, it hits right at my waist and makes this outfit look flattering to my figure. Shoppers agree, with one customer saying the “fabric is so soft and hits in just the right place,” while another person noted that it’s their “new favorite hoodie for running errands [and ] traveling.” 

Alo Yoga’s selection of matching sets, sweatshirts, and sweatpants includes so many different styles. Below, shop more pieces that are great for travel, lounging, and more, and be sure to join the rewards program to save 30 percent through October 30.
