Best Golf Skorts
The ladies game has seen a huge surge in the popularity of the skort. Fashioned by the likes of Natalie Gulbis and Michelle Wie the skort is now sported by most players on all of the women's tours. It is also a staple in amateur golfers wardrobes. But which skort works for you??
What makes a good skort? We believe comfort and confidence are really the winning combo in this category. Not too short but flattering enough to make you feel athletic enough to saunter onto Centre court. Wrong sport we hear you cry? But perhaps a skort should have multiple purposes. It could indeed be worn on the tennis court, or with a T-shirt on a day out with the kids. A skort is a key piece in a woman’s Summer wardrobe when trying to stay active and not flash one’s knickers whilst tackling a toddler or lining up that putt, yet still feeling a splash of femininity has been added into the choice of outfit for the day. These are all things we’ve taken into account whilst compiling our guide to the best skorts in Golf. Worth checking out our best women's golf shirts guide too to get that winning combo.

Colors: 3

- Outer pockets too stretchy for heavier items
This is a fantastically sporty offering from Adidas (opens in new tab). Available in 3 color options, we love the Legacy Burgundy. The skort has a really thick set waist band which is very flattering as it flattens the tummy. The skirt flares out from this slightly which is fun. Add to that the longer back to the front and you can line those putts up without flashing the shorts to your playing partners.
The shorts have a side pockets like many work-out leggings, perfect for heavier items such as your mobile phone. Big plus point. The skort is feminine whilst maintaining great performance and wicking moisture with the Heat Rdy tech. Made from Adidas' Primegreen recycled polyester you're doing your bit for the planet choosing this one.
Colors: 2
Sizes: XS-XL
+ Watercolor range is stunning

- Long length options only available in white
Beautiful coral color with watercolor print pocket and inner waistband detail. The stretchy waistband and integrated inner mesh knit skort means you can bend and pick up your ball with ease. The moisture wicking technology keeps you cool when conditions get hot. This washes so well and springs back as new after each clean.
Lightweight Micro Interlock fabric is so comfortable on. The 'Watercolor Collection' from FootJoy (opens in new tab) offers so many different complimentary pieces to this skort you'll be hard pushed to just stop at the skort.
Colors: 7
Sizes: 34-52 (2 length options)
+ Wide range of colors, sizes and lengths
+ Classic look for on and off the course
- 2 way stretch fabric not 4
The Röhnisch Seon Skort is lightweight for a more structure pencil skirt design. It really does have that classic golf skort feel. The 2-way stretch, breathable fabric makes this skort usable both on and off the course. This is the most popular Skort in the Röhnisch range. It isn't hard to see why.
Such choice in colors and sizes, plus 2 length choices (50cm and 45cm). 2 front pockets and attached ball marker, because of the less stretchy material (still loads of room for easy movement) it's easier to stash your mobile in the back pocket unlike some sportier styles.
Colors: 4
Sizes: XS-XL
+ Eye-catching print in 3 different designs
+ Beautiful stretchy material
- Daring prints not for all
FAMARA A-line golf skort is short enough to be sporty. Made from a luxurious and recycled blend of 4 way stretch material this skort is easy to pull on. The inbuilt shorts attach to the waistband to stay in place throughout the round and also feature a useful short pocket for the golf ball.
The flattering wide, no roll waistband sits on the waist for comfort. This skort is elegant, practical and sporty and comes in 3 vibrant designs that are inspired by the art of Famara owner Liz. This green is beautiful and can be matched with a striking green jacket from the collection and matching prints in the tops making it a versatile piece.
The playful patterns of the Famara range go beautifully with toned down footwear such as the FootJoy Fuel shoe.
Colors: 6
Sizes: XS-2XL
+ Reasonably priced
+ Classic Chic with a hint of femininity
- The material is thin
Available in an array of colors both from this season and last, this is a classic Callaway (opens in new tab) go to. I love the kick flare bottom to this as it moves beautifully as you swing. Designed with power mesh panelling in the waist and front panel to slim and contour your figure. Callaway's Opti-Dri tech wicks moisture away from your skin to keep you comfortable all day long.
Pair this with a pop of color or a fabulous print from the current collection and you’ll turn heads on the course. Callaway have kept this design in the collection so it’s available in staple classic colors plus brights.
Colors: 6
Sizes: White, Navy, Grenadine/Navy
+ Anti-crease SensorCool technology
+ Classic look
- Belt loops can interfere with a sleek silhouette
This crisp white skort will look stunning paired with the seasons bright tops and accented shoes. Everyone looks at a white skort and worries about it being see through or getting too dirty too quickly. With built in shorts that boast moisture wicking elements you can be sure you’ll keep your dignity with this one.
The belt loops mean you can wear it tucked in with a belt adding a pop of color. The skort is straight cut with a split at the back centre which gives it a classic look. Being big fans of back pockets and more structured fabric this skort can hold your mobile and scorecard without the fear of losing them on the follow through.
How we test
We test golf apparel (opens in new tab) in the same way we test all golf equipment, by using products properly. In relation to tops this means putting them to the test out on the golf course to see if the design is well thought out, if the garment interferes with the swing in any way, and simply if the top is actually usable. We would also wear the tops off the golf course as well because versatility to use a garment anywhere is a great way to get value for money. The final point we wanted to mention here is no manufacturer can pay for a good review because our thorough testing team tells it how it is.
How to choose the best golf skort
When looking for the perfect skort it's important you tick the boxes that are right for you. Everyone is different and some like them longer some like a butt skimmer. There are so many on the market it's worth shopping about and going for a dark plain number, a bright sporty one and perhaps throwing a jazzy pattern in for days where you just need to smile.
What length are you after? Do you want a pencil fit, sporty fit or a more A-line skort? Does the skort match up with your shoes or any other items in your wardrobe? Not that this is essential as far as I'm concerned- retail therapy is always a happy therapy.
The amazing news is it isn't just scorching summer days the skort is limited to. I wear mine with a pair of warm leggings to brighten up a windy Autumn day on the course. Be inventive with your golf outfits and give it a go with perhaps a pair of Adidas Cold.RDY leggings underneath.
