FAQs

Is the skort suitable for running?

Yes, the built-in stretch shorts make it functional for short-to-medium distance runs, though it is primarily designed for court sports.

Are the undershorts removable?

No, the undershorts are integrated into the garment to ensure a secure, stay-in-place fit.

How do I choose the right size?

The skort is sized by UK dress standards. Refer to your standard dress size to ensure the most accurate fit.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

While air drying is preferred to keep the pleats crisp, a low-heat tumble cycle can be used if absolutely necessary.

What does the reflective accent do?

The reflective accents are designed to catch light in low-visibility conditions, helping you stay visible during evening or early morning outdoor activities.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appearing wrinkled after storage

Lightly steam the pleated section while hanging to relax the fibers and restore the original shape.

Waistband rolling during exercise

Ensure the skort is positioned correctly at the natural waistline and not pulled too low on the hips.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your skort maintains its shape and performance qualities, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in cold water with similar colors to prevent fading.
  2. Drying: Air dry is recommended to preserve the integrity of the reflective accents and the pleated fabric structure; avoid high heat in the dryer.
  3. Ironing: If necessary, use a low-heat setting, though it is best to avoid direct contact with the reflective elements.
  4. Storage: Hang the skort rather than folding it to prevent deep creases in the pleats.
