In chino pants in the desert

The outfit is a key point, your comfort for your entire adventure depends on it. Here are some tips for you ambitious ones who went to the other side of the globe.
In these areas temperatures oscillate between 30°C and 50°C and our first advice would be to stay well hydrated in such hot weather. But let's get to the heart of the matter: your look on site. We might want to put on as few layers as possible and dress lightly but that's a misconception. Have you ever seen local outfits? Layered thin fabrics with one goal: protecting from the sun.
So good news, you can bring your favorite clothes and it starts with a good pair of chinos. Chinos are the quintessential pants, widespread around the world in both East and West, so you'll blend in unnoticed. Even more so if you opt for beige and havana colors. Usually made of cotton, ours contains is based on 23% organic cotton. The advantage of cotton is that it provides lightness while offering durability and comfort. So you have a solid base for traversing hot deserts and blending into the crowd once you reach the capital.
For the rest of the outfit we recommend an essential that will give you the local look: the linen and cashmere scarf. Crafted in different patterns, opt for a light tone or go for a solid color, such as camel for example. Wrap it around your neck and put it over your hair during the hours when the sun is at its zenith. Then put on a linen shirt to match the materials, always taking care to opt for a light tone that will perfect your look. Bring your sunglasses, learn some anecdotes about camels and last thing: watch out for scorpions, they're not very sensitive to style!
Evening chinos
