Staying active and staying covered are not supposed to be a trade-off, but for a lot of women they end up feeling like one. Athletic wear is usually cut short and tight, and most skirts were never made to move. So you end up tugging, layering, or skipping the workout altogether. The All-Sport Skirt was made to end that, with full coverage that actually keeps up.

This guide covers how the All-Sport Skirt works, the lengths it comes in, what you can do in it, and how to find your size, so you can stay modest from the school run to the tennis court.

What makes the All-Sport Skirt work

The All-Sport Skirt pairs a lightweight outer skirt with built-in leggings underneath. The skirt gives you the modest, feminine look you want, and the leggings keep you covered no matter how you move, bend, or reach. There is no slit, so nothing gaps when you run after a toddler or climb the bleachers.

The fabric is breathable and made to move, and the waistband is a comfortable stretch waist that stays put through activity without digging in. Because it covers so well and stretches with you, it is also one of our maternity friendly styles.

Two lengths, plus a version for girls

The All-Sport Skirt comes in two lengths for women so you can pick the coverage you prefer. The 27" length hits around mid-calf and is easy to move in for sports and busy days. The 31" length gives you a longer line and more coverage while keeping the same built-in leggings and breathable feel.

There is also a matching girls' All-Sport Skirt, so she can run and play and stay just as covered as mom. It is an easy mommy-and-me match for game days and family outings.

What you can actually do in it

The point of an athletic skirt is that it goes everywhere a workout or a busy day takes you. The All-Sport Skirt is at home on a walk, at the gym, on the tennis or pickleball court, at the playground, and on travel days when you want to move and still feel put together. Plenty of women also wear it as an everyday skirt, because the leggings underneath make it worry-free for sitting on the floor with kids or bending to load the car.

If you want the same coverage in a softer everyday style without the built-in leggings, the Relaxed Midi Skirt is a good companion piece. You can read more about why this kind of skirt earns its spot in your closet in our post on the modest athletic skirt built for real life.

Colors and prints

The All-Sport Skirt comes in a wide range of solids and a few playful prints. Keep it simple in Black, add some summer color with Bubble Gum or Lapiz Blue, or have fun with a print like Dash Print. Browse the full lineup in the All-Sport collection, which is also part of our wider active and swim lineup if you are pulling together a warm-weather wardrobe.

Fit and sizing

The women's All-Sport Skirt runs in sizes S through XXL, and the girls' version runs 4T through 12Y, so the whole family can match. It is cut to move and includes plus sizes, and the stretch waist gives you a little grace if you are between sizes. If you want to check where a length will fall on you before you order, our how to measure page walks you through it.

How to style it

The All-Sport Skirt keeps styling easy. For active days, pair it with a fitted tee and sneakers and you are ready to go. For everyday wear, one of our layering tees and slip-on shoes turns it into a relaxed, covered outfit. The skirt does the work of looking pulled together while the leggings handle the coverage, so you do not have to think about it once you are dressed.
