Top 11 Exercise Skorts for All Your Summer Activities
Exercise skorts give you the freedom of shorts, but the femininity and clean lines of a skirt. You can do just about every type of activity in a skort, from bicycling uphill to hitting a tennis ball on the court. There's a reason skorts have stuck around for so long—they're cute and versatile—and we've rounded up our favorites this season, below.
