While last summer saw the rise of bike shorts, this year we're seeing virtually all of our favorite activewear brands release their own version of the exercise skirt (i.e., a skort made from performance material with built-in shorts). After all, why should you have to sacrifice style when you're hitting the tennis court or traversing a hiking trail? And while we don't see the popularity of bike shorts going anywhere, there's definitely a new activewear trend you'll want to explore this summer.
From some of our favorite brands like Outdoor Voices and Girlfriend Collective to extra-affordable options available on Amazon, there are plenty of exercise skirts and skorts available to shop right now. These pieces can be worn for everything from tennis matches to jogs to hikes, and nearly everything in between. And since we chose options made from lightweight, breathable, and sweat-wicking materials, you can be sure that these skirts will look chic while keeping up with you during all of the above activities and more.
