Hiking in a skirt?
Posted: Fri Mar 13, 2009 8:24 am
I have a question for the women on this board....
I’ve often thought that wearing a skirt while backpacking would have some real advantages, and wondered if anyone’s tried it? They would certainly be cool, and (more importantly) when nature calls, a skirt would be WAY easier to just pull up than balancing with the shorts around the ankles…. faster too. Thermals or pants can be worn underneath, then could be removed later without having to get totally undressed. … and a short skirt would be so cute with hiking boots
I think the only concern would be the possibility of chafing… not fun. I think I’m going to try it once it warms up here a little… this is definitely NOT short skirt weather in the mountains.
