I can't stop thinking about the pp who said she wears knee high boots on a flight! I guess with precheck you don't need to take them off to go through security - but if it gets hot and stuffy you've got no relief! Or if your feet swell! Do you never get hot and stuffy, or have your feet swell?!


I'm not the PP who posted that, but I often wear knee high boots. I don't fly economy so swelling isn't usually an issue, and it's easy to take your boots off when you're in a pod in business/first.


I'm the PP and I wear clogs everywhere because I like how easily they come on and off. I just can't picture wearing tall boots on a long flight. Do you carry slippers or extra shoes for when you go to the bathroom, or just put your boots back on?

These are the most comfy pants I own so I wear these with a shell, and then a long wrap cardigan and compression socks. I also wear a very comfy all-cotton bra with a wide elastic band -- no wire.

I do wish they had pockets, though. I saw someone wearing spanx flare pants on a flight recently and they looked good and comfy -- I actually asked her what brand they were because they looked good and perfect for long flights.

They are really (really) comfortable (wearing them on a flight right now!). But they did get pilly really quickly. Kind of annoying because they weren’t cheap.


I bought the Amazon knock off of these recommended on Capital Hill Style and love them for travel. I’m washing them but not using the dryer hoping they will last longer that way.


I have them. They’re interesting and undeniably comfortable, and they look a little more polished than just cotton sweats.

You need a fabric shaver. It’s worth having for stuff like this and sweaters.


Can you link? I looked in that blog and couldn't find.

What’s the inseam on those pants? Are they petite friendly?

Leg swelling has little to do with flight class. Its literal gravity.

This is smart. I'm the chinos poster, but I like this idea. Comfortable and practical.

Clearly we have different standards. I wouldn't even pop out for an errand that requires me to be out of the car for more than 5 min in leggings and a t-shirt. I only own 2 t-shirts and I barely wear them. I certainly would never be seen walking around town like that. It's akin to college students wearing PJs to class - wierd.

OP,
I wear soft chinos, and a 3/4 sleeve top. Depending on location or season, I might wear a silk sleeveless shirt or carry a cashmere swear. I also normally have a light weight shell in my handbag. I like the patagonia one that scrunches down into it's pocket. This is so I don't get caught out if it rains or the weather changes. It weighs nothing and can fit everywhere. I wear comfortable shoes - still prefer my Vejas - and I don't care if my clothes are dated, as long as they look ok.


Sorry sweater nor swear.

And 'its pocket' not 'it's'

Not doing so well with the auto correct

-Yoga pants

My priority is easy, comfortable and easy to walk/run through an airport lol. I always get cold on flights so need the zip up.
