CALIA Golf Skorts — Performance Comfort for Every Round
Our Essential Golf Skort delivers the performance you need for 18 holes and beyond. Designed with moisture-wicking four-way stretch fabric, this skort moves with your swing while keeping you cool under pressure.
Built-in compression shorts feature a mesh-lined pocket that securely holds two golf balls, plus a hidden waistband pocket for your scorecard or tees. The 17-inch length hits just above the knee for coverage that flatters every body type. We engineered the wide waistband to sit comfortably without rolling or digging, even during your most aggressive drives.
Performance fabric & design highlights
Technical Fabric Engineering for Peak Performance
Every CALIA golf skort in our collection features performance fabric engineered specifically for athletic movement in warm weather. Our moisture-wicking yarns pull perspiration away from your skin to the garment’s outer surface, where it evaporates quickly to keep you cool and focused.
Four-way stretch construction means the fabric moves in every direction — horizontally and vertically — so your backswing and follow-through never feel restricted by your clothing. We’ve treated all our golf apparel with UPF 50+ protection, blocking 98% of harmful UV rays during extended rounds in full sun. The polyester-spandex blend resists pilling, fading, and shape loss even after dozens of washes, maintaining its performance properties season after season.
Compression Short Design and Pocket System
Integrated Compression Liner
The built-in compression shorts in our CALIA golf skorts eliminate the need for separate undergarments while providing secure, chafe-free coverage. We constructed the liner with soft-brushed fabric that stays in place without riding up, even during long walks between holes. The compression fit supports your muscles and reduces fatigue during 18-hole rounds.
Strategic Pocket Placement
We designed multiple pocket solutions to keep your essentials accessible without bulk. Ball pockets feature mesh lining that holds two regulation golf balls securely against your thigh — you’ll never hear them clicking together or feel them shift during your swing. Hidden waistband pockets use secure closures to protect your phone, keys, or scorecard from moisture and impact. Unlike traditional skirt pockets that create visible bulk, our integrated system maintains a smooth, flattering silhouette from every angle.
Fit, Sizing, and Length Options
Our CALIA golf skorts follow standard women’s sizing from XS through XXL, with each style offering a consistent fit across the collection. The Essential and Pleated styles feature mid-rise waistbands that sit just below your natural waist, while our High-Waisted design rises approximately two inches higher for extended core coverage.
Length varies by style to suit different preferences: our High-Waisted skort measures 16 inches from waistband to hem for maximum mobility, the Essential sits at 17 inches for versatile coverage, and the Pleated extends to 18 inches for those who prefer slightly more length. We recommend ordering your typical size — the stretch fabric accommodates a range of body types without pulling or gaping. If you’re between sizes or prefer a looser fit through the hips, size up one increment.

Your Questions About CALIA Golf Skorts
Yes, our golf skorts follow standard women’s sizing and run true to size for most body types. The four-way stretch fabric accommodates a range of shapes within each size.
If you’re between sizes or prefer a looser fit through the hips and waist, we recommend sizing up. The integrated compression shorts are designed to fit snugly for security and support, so if you typically size up in compression garments, apply that same approach here.
Absolutely — many customers wear our golf skorts for tennis, pickleball, running errands, or casual athletic activities. The moisture-wicking fabric and built-in shorts make them versatile for any warm-weather activity.
The classic styling works for country club dining or weekend brunches, while the performance features handle intense workouts or outdoor recreation. The UPF 50+ protection makes them ideal for any extended time in the sun.
Length preference depends on your comfort level and intended use. Our 16-inch High-Waisted style offers maximum mobility and works well for aggressive players or those who prefer shorter hemlines. The 17-inch Essential length provides versatile coverage that flatters most body types and hits just above the knee.
The 18-inch Pleated skort offers the most coverage and creates a classic country club look. Consider where you typically like skirts and shorts to fall on your leg — if you prefer coverage, start with the Pleated or Essential styles.
No, we engineered the fabric with sufficient opacity to prevent any transparency, even during deep bends or lunges. The compression short liner adds an extra layer of coverage beneath the skort shell, so you’ll never experience see-through issues.
We test every fabric under various lighting conditions and movement scenarios to ensure complete coverage. The polyester-spandex blend maintains its opacity even when stretched, and the compression construction prevents any gaping or shifting that could compromise coverage.
Yes, the ball pockets are reinforced with durable stitching and maintain their shape through repeated washing and wear. We use mesh lining that’s specifically designed to resist stretching, so the pockets will securely hold golf balls even after dozens of rounds and wash cycles.
Following our care instructions — washing in cold water and tumble drying on low — will preserve the pocket structure and overall garment shape. The technical fabric resists the breakdown that causes sagging or distortion in traditional athletic wear.
The Essential skort features a clean, streamlined silhouette with a flat front and back, making it our most versatile and popular style. The Pleated skort incorporates feminine box pleats that create more visual interest and a classic country club aesthetic.
Both styles share the same performance fabric, compression short liner, and pocket system. The Pleated version measures one inch longer (18 inches versus 17 inches) and has a slightly more relaxed fit through the hip due to the pleat construction. Choose Essential for a modern minimalist look or Pleated for traditional golf styling.
Yes, our waistband pockets are specifically sized to hold most smartphones securely. The Essential and High-Waisted styles feature hidden zipper pockets that protect your phone from moisture and impact, while the Pleated style includes a snap-closure pocket for quick access.
The pocket placement at the center back waistband keeps your phone out of the way during your swing and prevents it from interfering with your stance or movement. Many golfers use their phones for GPS rangefinders or score tracking and appreciate having secure storage that doesn’t require carrying a separate pouch.
