Spring Thaw: Road Trip Essentials

By: Cheralee Lyle, @cheraleelyle

One thing is for sure, I can’t wait for spring to hurry up and get here! I love to mark my favorite season's arrival with a fun road trip with my man. We start in New York City and then journey to somewhere new and unknown. No matter where your road trip leads you, city or country, you need some adventure-worthy Timberland gear.

Packing for a road trip requires a few essentials. Tough footwear, warm outerwear and accessories to carry all the travel must-haves I can't leave home without, for starters.

First up, I have to have my Timberland Mayliss Oxfords. A stylish and super comfortable leather sneaker with an elevated platform sole, they pair with just about anything for the road. I love the white full-grain leather, as it helps the shoes fit seamlessly into my wardrobe.

I’m not the best at traveling light, and so I love my Cascade Falls Tote Bag because it fits all of the essentials plus my laptop and camera. Plus, the inside zip pockets and added compartments keep all my travel items safe when I am on the move. The raw buffalo leather in tan is my favorite, as it is a great addition to anything I am wearing.

For this tricky weather, every guy has got to have the Sailor Bomber Jacket. It’s an awesome transitional piece to take you into the new season. The classic styling is made modern with white coloring and grey details. 

As for footwear, my man loved the Newport Bay Canvas Hiker Chukka. They are super lightweight and totally durable. The hiker-inspired shoe goes perfectly with dark denim and is an essential for any trip.

Again, all this gear is perfect for your own spring road trip as the weather thaws out! 

Another essential for the warmer weather? The Glancy Peep Toe boot – check out this post from @Walkinwonderland on how she styles the Glancy.
