DOUBLE RAINBOUU
Double Rainbouu (pronounced the same as rainbow) describe themselves as ‘the antidote to traditional resort wear’ — a motto we can totally get around.
The Australian brand make wild, strikingly colourful unisex clothes worn by everyone from Flume to Justin Bieber, striking a chord somewhere between Jonny Depp in 1997’s Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and the photo of your dad in his prime in the 1970s.
We can see our travellers wearing this in London’s glammest nightclubs, at the beach in Mykonos or cruising Williamsburg’s backstreets in summer… and looking the best at all of them.

VSSL FLASK
When you hear the word flask, you might think of the cumbersome clunkers popularised by club-going 18-year-olds and sneaky festival-goers.
Now you can add another category: sleek, cool camping bad bois like the VSSL (pronounced vessel) flask, which is both a vibe and extremely practical. Built with military-grade aluminum and food-grade stainless steel, the flask is more or less indestructible, and also comes with an in-built LED flashlight, an oil-filled precision compass AND a couple of shot glasses.
Flasks don’t come much better than this, people.

AUSTRALIAN DISTILLING CO.
A hard-earned thirst needs a big cold…gin.
Alright maybe it isn’t the classic Australiana slogan of choice. And maybe gin isn’t the first Aussie alcohol to come to mind, but we like the way Australian Distilling Co. have taken a travellers approach to booze-making.
The company’s signature range features Bondi, Gold Coast, Melbourne, Fremantle and Sydney Gin—and heaps more—all different, all distilled across the country and all with nods to the locations within the drink itself.
Think of these like travel memories in a bottle, here to remind you of your van trip around Australia or the time you were chilling out at Bondi or walking laneways down south.

iWALK MINI PORTABLE CHARGER
This writer once missed a flight—by sheer minutes—after a big night. My phone was on 0% battery and in the time it took to charge it, the plane left without me.
This situation could have been avoided if I'd had the iWalk Mini Portable Charger, perhaps the world’s most convenient power bank.
The iWalk is able to charge iPhones 8 and up, airpods and more, but its best asset is how compact it is—easily stuffed into your bag or pocket to charge on the go. Perfect for when you're late to a flight... or other such life events.

TUMI YOGA SLING AND TOTE BAG
Bali, Arugam Bay or Byron Bay—wherever you’re headed for your yoga camp, Tumi’s yoga sling and tote has you covered.
Not only is it quite literally a yoga holster, it's also got a bunch of other cool features that your standard yoga bag or clip strap doesn’t. Like an outer mesh zip-up storage pocket and a hidden magnetised pocket behind—handy for your passport or your phone.
It also morphs into a tote bag, so you can cruise along the markets and look cool when not yoga-ing. Not bad.
