I had been looking for a hiking skirt and ordered this skirt on a whim based on reading several reviews online and finding this on sale.

Pros:
+ A-line shape
+ Stretchy fabric
+ Large variety of colour choices
+ No-waistband style fits a variety of sizes
+ Actual usable pockets (3).
+ Material dries quickly
+ Material resists wrinkles
+ Waist area lined with sweat-wicking material

Cons:
- Runs at least 2 sizes too large if worn on the hip. Can even go down 3 sizes if worn at the waist.
- No-waistband style does not hold top in place if worn over the top. Requires top being tucked into underwear to stay put.
- No-waistband style does not stay put and has a tendency to swing around sideways after a brisk hike.
- Misleading product shot: For the skirt to sit above the knee as shown in the product shot, one must be at least 5'7" and plan to wear this skirt at their true waistline at their navel.
- Putting larger or heavy items in the pocket will cause the skirt to hang/pull on that side since there is no waistband to prevent it from doing so.
- I've ordered this skirt 3 times and the first 2 skirts has zipper problems. While the zippers themselves were ok, there seems to be a problem with sewing the zippers onto the skirt and the zipper was either sewn on crooked or there was some serious material puckering.  Maybe this is just bad luck, but please check the zippers when the skirt is received.

Notes:
This skirt will look good on those whose body types look good in a-line skirts.  The material is not soft, flowy or flippy like your traditional a-line or swing skirt. I have 2 of these skirt in 2 different colours and one is 2 sizes smaller than the size I would be per Royal Robbins sizing chart and the other is 3 sizes smaller. Both fit well except that one I prefer to wear for travel that is at my waist, shorter and more flattering, and the other lower on my hip, longer and more room to put stuff in the pockets for actual hiking.

Overall recommended as an easy-care, wrinkle resistant skirt for travel or hiking for those with pear-shaped or hourglass-shaped figures. Not recommended for those with slim hips.
