Gift Guide: Our Favorite Gifts For The Road Tripper

You can’t feel cooler than when you’re sporting the sunglasses donned by The King of Cool himself.
 

These folding frame shades, originally produced in the 1960s, have been reissued with upgrades designed to enhance your on-the-road experience. They’re stowable, polarized, and sport 24k gold plated lenses that perfectly complement the accents on your SeaQ. 
 

Schott is well-known for the instantly recognizable motorcycle jacket called the Perfecto. However, for our road trip adventure, we’re turning to their slightly lesser-known take on the Trucker Jacket.
 

This beautifully vintaged and oiled cowhide jacket features antiqued hardware, a zip front closure, three front pockets, and adjustable side tabs. It simply screams, let’s hit the road.
 

No road trip kit is complete without a proper head covering, and no one makes a more suitable solution than Borsalino. Back in 1857, Giuseppe Borsalino created what is now the oldest luxury hat manufacture in Italy.

Today, you can find a wide array of styles in their catalog, but we’re focused on their cashmere driving cap…preferably in taupe.
 

Even if driving gloves aren't your "thing," no one should embark on a road trip without a form-fitting pair of leather driving gloves.

And no driving gloves are more iconic than those donned by Ryan Gosling’s creepy-yet-compelling character in the 2011 movie Drive.
 

Made from genuine Italian Sheep leather by specially trained craftsmen, these are exact replicas of the gloves that Gaspar made specifically for the film.
 

We’ve covered both your head and your hands, so let’s now cover your feet with the Apex driving high tops made in Portugal by Piloti.
 

These stylish yet functional burnished leather uppers are as at home on the pedals as they are on the street. We love these in the cognac colorway, which pair perfectly with the other adventure driving attire we’ve selected. 
 

Stow and go with Period Correct’s take on the classic mechanic’s tool bag.

We love the green canvas and matching green leather handles. It features a large brass zipper opening into the large main compartment with 2-way pulls with plenty of room, and pockets are ready for every essential, from tools to traveling gear. 
 

Nothing keeps a road trip going like a spare can of petrol. And no gas can is as iconic as the official NATO-style Jerry Can.

This 20 Liter/5 Gallon metal can is built to European military specs and comes in an adventure-seeking Olive Drab Green colorway. There are several replicas of these classic cans out there, but we can attest that these are the real deal.
