"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I’ve worn this skort on hot trail days and long wades, and the inner shorts are the standout—they stay put better than most. The fabric dries fast, and the pockets are actually useful when you’re moving between activities.""We pull on the Tech Skort when warm days call for something light, quick-drying, and ready for everything from creek crossings to dusty switchbacks. It feels easy from the start—the skirt moves smoothly, the liner shorts stay in place, and the wide stretch waistband keeps the fit comfortable even as the miles add up. Patagonia built it for motion, and we use it for full days outside when versatility matters as much as comfort. The recycled polyester stretch fabric sheds light moisture and allows free movement, while the inner shorts use soft, wicking materials that stay comfortable through heat, sweat, and extended activity. Two front pockets and a zip security pocket keep essentials close without interrupting stride. Reinforced webbing loops at the hips offer a spot for small tools or quick-access gear, making the Tech Skort a dependable layer for active travel, wading, hiking, and everyday exploration."
