CALIA Skort | Performance Golf & Active Skort
Our CALIA skort delivers the perfect balance of coverage, movement, and style for your active lifestyle. Designed with moisture-wicking fabric and built-in compression shorts, this skort keeps you comfortable through 18 holes or a full day on your feet.
The stretch-knit construction moves with you during every swing, lunge, or stride. UPF 50+ sun protection shields your skin on sunny days, while the lightweight fabric dries quickly when you work up a sweat. We added hidden pockets in the compression shorts for tees, balls, or your phone — everything you need stays secure and close.
Whether you’re teeing off, running errands, or meeting friends for brunch, the CALIA skort transitions seamlessly from the course to everyday wear. The smooth waistband sits flat without digging in, and the a-line silhouette flatters every body type while maintaining full range of motion.
Performance fabric & design details
Fabric technology & construction
We engineered the CALIA skort with our proprietary moisture-wicking fabric that pulls sweat away from your skin and dries up to three times faster than cotton. The polyester-spandex blend offers four-way stretch that recovers its shape after every wear, so your skort looks crisp round after round.
The built-in compression shorts feature flat-lock seams that eliminate chafing during extended wear. UPF 50+ protection is woven directly into the fibers — not a coating that washes out over time — giving you reliable sun defense on the course. The outer skirt layer drapes beautifully while the compression layer stays put, creating the perfect combination of style and security.
Sizing & fit guidance
The CALIA skort runs true to size with a comfortable mid-rise waist that sits just below your natural waistline. If you’re between sizes or prefer a relaxed fit, we recommend sizing up. The compression shorts are designed to fit snugly without restricting movement, while the outer skirt layer provides generous coverage.
Our size chart uses hip and waist measurements for the most accurate fit. The elastic waistband stretches up to two inches, accommodating natural fluctuations throughout the day. XS fits sizes 0-2, S fits 4-6, M fits 8-10, L fits 12-14, and XL fits 16-18.
Care instructions & maintenance
Machine wash your CALIA skort in cold water with like colors to preserve the fabric’s technical properties and vibrant appearance. We recommend using a gentle cycle and avoiding fabric softeners, which can coat the moisture-wicking fibers and reduce performance.
Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry for best results. The quick-dry fabric typically dries within 30-45 minutes when hung. Avoid high heat, which can damage the stretch fibers and cause premature wear.

Common questions about the CALIA skort
The CALIA skort features built-in compression shorts as an integral part of the design, eliminating the need for separate undergarments. Traditional athletic skirts require you to wear separate shorts or undergarments underneath. Our compression layer includes hidden pockets and provides secure coverage during bending, stretching, and active movement.
The integrated design also prevents the inner layer from riding up or shifting during wear. The outer skirt and compression shorts work together as a single garment, creating a streamlined silhouette that’s more comfortable and functional than layering separate pieces.
Measure your natural waist and hips, then compare to our size chart for the most accurate fit. The skort runs true to size with a mid-rise waistband that has about two inches of stretch. If you’re between sizes, we recommend sizing up for a more relaxed fit in the compression shorts.
The compression layer is designed to fit snugly but not restrictively — you should feel supported without any pinching or discomfort. If you prefer looser-fitting athletic wear, order one size up from your usual size. The elastic waistband and four-way stretch fabric accommodate a range of measurements within each size.
Absolutely! We designed the CALIA skort for any active pursuit that demands comfort and movement. Customers wear it for tennis, pickleball, hiking, cycling, yoga, and everyday casual wear. The moisture-wicking fabric and UPF 50+ protection make it ideal for any outdoor activity.
The versatile styling transitions from athletic to casual settings effortlessly. Pair it with performance tops for workouts or dress it up with a casual blouse for lunch or shopping. The hidden pockets and compression shorts provide the same functionality whether you’re on the golf course, running errands, or traveling.
No, the outer skirt layer is designed with sufficient opacity and structure to prevent the compression shorts from showing through. We use a double-layer construction in the skirt portion that maintains modesty from all angles, even in bright sunlight or when bending.
The compression shorts are cut slightly shorter than the outer skirt, creating a subtle layered effect that’s visible only at the hemline. This intentional design provides the security of knowing you’re covered while maintaining a polished, put-together appearance.
The compression shorts layer includes two hidden pockets — one on each hip — built into the waistband seam. These pockets are sized to securely hold your smartphone, golf tees, balls, keys, or cards without bouncing or shifting during movement. The pocket openings sit at the natural waistline for easy access.
The pockets feature a slight elastic grip at the opening to keep contents secure during active movement. Unlike exterior pockets that can add bulk, these hidden pockets maintain a smooth silhouette while keeping essentials close and accessible. Many customers report that their phone stays put even during running and jumping activities.
No, the UPF 50+ sun protection is built into the fabric fibers themselves, not applied as a surface coating. This means the sun-blocking properties are permanent and won’t diminish with washing or wear. You can expect the same level of protection after hundreds of washes as you get the first time you wear it.
UPF 50+ blocks approximately 98% of UV rays, providing excellent protection for your skin during extended outdoor activities. Combined with sunscreen on exposed areas, the CALIA skort offers reliable defense against sun damage during golf rounds, hikes, or any outdoor pursuit.
