I’m always on the hunt for comfortable travel pants that don’t look like pajamas. 

These breathable, 100% cotton pants might be exactly what I am looking for. The textured fabric hides wrinkles, while the on-seam and back pockets are perfect for holding things like ticket stubs and hotel keycards. The grosgrain drawstring will ensure a custom fit, especially after I’ve indulged in an extra scoop of gelato.

Vince’s Drawstring Utility Pants are on sale for $296.25 (down from $395) at Nordstrom. These come in sizes XS-XL and are available in two neutral colors. 

Two more affordable options are from Skims ($70, XXS-4X) and Caslon ($59.50, XXS-XXL); both are also available at Nordstrom.
