The great Australian road trip wardrobe

Long drives. Early morning coastal swims and afternoon hikes through misty forests. Spontaneous detours to find that perfect country bakery pie. Road trips around Australia are the perfect summer time holiday. They’re unique - you’ll spend hours in the car, days at the beach and pop in and out of petrol stations as regularly as you do country towns. You need a versatile roadtrip wardrobe that does the heavy lifting for you. 

A wardrobe that works in the car, at the beach, on bushwalks and everywhere between. No outfit changes in petrol station bathrooms. No regrets three hours in when your jeans feel like a bad decision.

This is activewear built for the open road. Comfortable enough for the drive and versatile enough for whatever comes next.

Comfort that lasts from morning to night

Road trips mean hours in the car. Your outfit needs to work sitting down, stretching at rest stops, and exploring when you finally arrive. Restrictive waistbands and stiff fabrics don't make the cut.

Start with pieces that move with you. High-waisted leggings or Travel Pants that don’t dig in after hour three. Soft, lightweight fabrics that breathe when the car heats up. Layers you can peel off without disrupting the driver.

Travel Pants are built exactly for this. They look polished but feel relaxed, with four-way stretch, quick-drying fabric and wrinkle-resistant finishes. They handle the drive, the hike and dinner without ever needing an iron

The five-piece road trip capsule

Pack light. Wear everything. Here's the formula that works for coastal drives, servo stops and unexpected adventures.

1. One pair of versatile bottoms: Travel Pants or In Motion leggings. High-waisted, comfortable and work with everything. They're your base for every outfit.

2. Two tops that layer: a breathable tank and a lightweight long-sleeve. The Tempo Muscle Tank works alone in the heat. The long-sleeve adds coverage when the sun's too strong or the evening cools down.

3. One lightweight layer: something you can throw on without thinking, like a zip-up jumper from the Me Time collection. Cosy for lunch stops in air-conditioned cafes, perfect for breezy coastal walks.

4. Swimmers that double as activewear: because Australian road trips always involve water. Swimmers you can wear under your clothes, dive in at any beach stop, then keep wearing. Sweat-to-Splash® pieces work beautifully here.

5. One pair of shorts: for hot days, beach walks and when leggings feel like too much. In Motion shorts are soft, stretchy and dry fast.

Five pieces. Endless combinations. Pack them all, wear them all, repeat them without thinking twice.

What works on the road

Each piece in your road trip wardrobe needs to earn its place in your bag. Choose pieces that stay comfortable in the car, dry quickly after a swim, and still look good when you stop for dinner.

Think quick-dry fabrics that handle spills and swims, wrinkle-resistant materials that survive the suitcase, and stretch that moves with you when the drive turns into a hike.

Add breathable layers for changing climates and high-waisted fits that stay put no matter how long the journey. It’s comfort and function, without compromise.

Coastal to inland: one wardrobe for everything

Australian road trips take you through every climate in a single day. Foggy coast to desert heat to mountain cold. Your wardrobe needs to handle it all.

The In Motion collection gives you versatility without bulk. Pieces made from soft fabrics, that don’t need ironing, with details that make travelling easier.

Then, add swimmers from our Swim collection. Because you're never far from a beach, river or pool when you're road-tripping Australia. Pieces that resist sun, salt and chlorine mean you’re always ready for a dip.

Layer with the Me Time collection when temperatures drop. Cosy without the bulk. Easy to pack, easier to wear.

Built for the journey, ready for the detour

The best road trips happen when you can jump in the car and go. Leave behind complicated clothes, hit the road without overthinking it. Take a capsule wardrobe that works in the car, at the beach and everywhere between, and you're ready for anything.
