Outfits worn across the game reserves of South Africa and waterways of Botswana. Built for 5 AM game drives, midday heat, and dinners under the stars. The African safari packing list tells you what to bring. This is what it looks like on.

OUTFIT 01
Neutrals in the Wild
The goal on a game drive is to disappear into the landscape. Khaki does just that. The rest is comfort and layers you can peel off as the sun rises.

OUTFIT 02
Camera in Hand, Always
I learned early on to keep my camera nearby at all times—slung around my shoulder returning from a game drive, on the sun lounger during a midday dip, within reach at every meal. You’ll miss things if you don’t. I shoot on a Sony a7rV, but for the non-photographer who still wants images worth framing, the Sony mirrorless linked below I the one I always recommend.

OUTFIT 03
Game Drive Ready
A slightly more put together look for a warm afternoon. The linen button down earns its place—protects you from the sun, keeps you cool, and transitions from the vehicle to the lodge dinner.

OUTFIT 04
Game Drive Ready
The layering formula that never fails: a field jacket over a fitted tee, utility pants with ankle boots, and a scarf to fight the morning chill.
