Kragg Shoe

Our editor hasn’t worn other shoes since receiving these this week, touting the shoe’s comfort and performance. Your feet feel stable thanks to the breathable “Spacermesh” upper and sturdy Vibran Megagrip lower which grips surfaces as you walk or climb. Fold down the heel to create a slide for an even more relaxed vibe. While these were designed with outdoor and technical performance in mind, we think they are also a pretty perfect travel shoe. Available in mens and womens sizes.

Cityverse Sneaker

Introduced earlier this month, the Cityverse is lululemon’s foray into casual sneakers. We’ve tested them thoroughly and are impressed with their comfort, support and versatility. A soft foam molded insole conforms nicely to your foot and the grippy outsole sticks well to most surfaces, wet or dry. With a basic casual-yet-sporty look they can be dressed up or down and given they’re resilient enough to exercise in they’re a perfectly versatile travel shoe for those of us who prefer to carry less. The Cityverse is available in both womens and mens fits and sizes with a few launch colorways and surely more to come.

Shield Repellent Insect Spray

If you’ve had the pleasure of staying at a COMO Shambhala resort you likely have experienced their all-natural insect repellant, which is diffused throughout their properties. A mix of peppermint, eucalyptus and citronella essential oils, we’ve found it to be very effective natural body spray with a scent that doesn’t make you smell like a citronella candle.

AG1

75 vitamins, minerals, prebiotics and probiotics, phytonutrients, mushrooms, plant extracts, adaptogenic herbs and antioxidants go into Athletic Greens’ AG1, packing a lot of punch in a small packet that’s easy to travel with and even easier to use—just add it to a glass of water and shake (or stir) to start your day. We’ve found it to be the perfect way to offset some of the effects of traveling frequently—not always eating the way we can at home, sometimes missing a meal or not not taking care of ourselves as well as we should. AG1 supports your immunity, nervous system, gut and microbiome. The travel pack includes 30 days worth, and it’s also available in a pouch if you want to start your day at home off right for less money. Subscriptions are also available, which further reduce the price.

Serotonin Soak

Featuring an herbaceous eucalyptus aroma, this Serotonin Soak is made with magnesium zechstein flakes, French green clay, apple cider vinegar, seaweed extract and essential oils for a relaxing, almost medicinal feeling bath. Between its large flakes (mixed in with tiny salts), green-ish tinge (from algae extract) and no-frills packaging, its appearance may be misleading, but the result is soothing. The brand suggests four scoops in the tub, but we have found less works well too—and results in more baths per pouch. Formulated to reduce inflammation, ease aching muscles and relax the mind, it’s a blissful addition to a bedtime ritual.
