Everyday carry enthusiasts should be familiar with The James Brand and their tasteful, minimalist designs. For this timepiece, they've teamed with Timex on an explorer-friendly GMT. It has a 41mm titanium case, with a contrasting emerald 24-hour bezel and a emerald dial outfitted with white Super LumiNova indexes and hands. A black GMT hand allows for tracking the time across multiple zones and provides a pop of color; a date window at 3 o'clock completes the dial. Powered by an automatic Miyota movement, it's limited to 750 examples and sits on a titanium bracelet.

Long gone are the days of stiff, wrinkled chinos. Modern pants are cut from a different (better) cloth, and Jack Archer's Jetsetter Tech Pants are a prime example. Crafted from premium Rebound fabric sourced from Japan, they're stretchy, wrinkle-free, anti-odor, and stain-resistant, making them great for travel. The fit provides room where it's needed but is slim where it's not, and is enhanced by a diamond-shaped gusset that prevents tightness in the crotch and the curved-waist design that provides a lift to the backside. Built with premium stitching, they also feature a zippered coin pocket and hidden reflective tape that's only revealed when they're cuffed. Now available in two cuts: the original, best-selling Slim Fit and the new Straight Fit, which offer a roomier fit from the knee down.

Air travel is enough of a hassle without dealing with sub-par luggage. Informed by the founders' experience, gained at renowned brands like Louis Vuitton and Tumi, Arlo Skye makes luggage with thoughtful features like the hard-side exterior pocket of this carry-on. The aforementioned pocket is large enough to hold a 16" laptop, pullover, and other essentials, while a TSA-compliant, removable PD charger with USB-C and A ports can juice up a phone to 50% in just 30 minutes. Free-Flex zipper technology stretches up to half an inch for over-packers (or unexpected trip purchases), antimicrobial interior lining keeps contents smelling fresh, the durable, lightweight impact-resistant polycarbonate exterior keeps things protected, and virtually silent spinner wheels glide smoothly through the terminal.
