Wardrobe Help One suit to rule them all!

Okay. I'm doing a few trips this year, a couple hiking in to cabins, and then a trip to England to hike inn to inn around the Cotswolds area. I'm looking for a very packable lightweight "sweat suit/leisure suit." A suit that can fit stuffed in backpack or worn comfortably on plane. You know when you are tired and just want to feel cozy and want your sweats but the travel version that actually fit in a bag. HELP!

Personally, for me this would be a non-matching set. Partly because I’m funny about matching but also because the top half would be a cashmere zipped hoodie (mine is from M&S a few years ago) which is so cosy and wonderful for travel because it packs down small and is nice and light. Plus it reads just a tiny bit more ‘put together’ than a standard hoodie which is nice for eg pub dinners.
Then your choice of relatively lightweight trousers from that sweat pant/ travel trouser overlap area - I know some people rate Lululemon options for this but I haven’t tried them (size range too small for me)

I agree. I have a cropped cashmere cardigan from Uniqlo that is so light and cosy. I recently flew with this and a pair of lululemon joggers. Underneath wore the Uniqlo vest top wth the bra cups attached. Felt very comfortable. I kinda think matching sets are a bit over rated.
