Outdoor Research  Ferrosi Skort

Love this skort! It's just right for town to trail adventures.

I have 5 of the original Ferrosi skorts from 2015-2018 and they are FAR superior to this updated version. The original has a zipper and button fly, is way more flattering and FUNCTIONAL than an elastic waist. As others have stated, this one if for activewear only. The original version worked for everything, including casual wear and was super comfy. Before the style was totally changed (ruined imo), the fit of the Ferrosi was messed up and weird so I stopped buying in 2019/2020. All of my older OR skorts (Astro from 2021 is my favorite, and Espresso from even earlier) are much preferred over any newer styles.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great Skort overall. Would love more colors. - Color: Rhubarb is Beautiful bright watermelon/neon red color - Fabric: The fabric shorts liner are super super soft on this updated version, improved from last season. - Skirt fabric is cooling, and quite stretchy - Fit: fit improved from last season (last years version was baggy in the hips and butt, this year's version is as I'd expect, slimmer and true to sizing) - great pockets - Style: makes summer a little more fashionable than running shorts. Love wearing these on the weekends for hikes, and around for errands!

I check this website repeatedly in hopes of seeing that the older style with front zip and belt loops has magicallyreturned. My favorites are the really old ones with the zip pocket low on the left side. As an outdoor person and also someone who travels A LOT, the older skorts gave me exactly what I needed to feel casual but polished. I've directed lots of women to your brand over the years! The new style is way to informal for my use. I keep combing other websites looking for a replacement, and trying to protect the old ferrosis I still have.

I purchased multiples of the classic Ferrosi Skort year after year. What a versatile staple of my wardrobe! I used my older ones hiking and camping, the newer ones around town, out to dinner and traveling. It wore wonderfully and always looked fresh and good. With belt loops and a waistband, zipper, and discreet pockets, the style could be dressed up or down and could go anywhere. An AMAZING skort! And it fit like a dream. Sadly, I won't be buying this new version. It is way too sporty/outdoorsy looking for what I need.

I bought this skort in orange after enjoying the Ferrosi hiking pants and wanting something for the hotter months. This is my new favourite summer clothing item. I wear it every weekend, and have even worn it to the office for casual Fridays. I get compliments every time I'm out, with folks commenting on how sporty, cute and comfortable it looks. It's breathable for day-hiking in sticky, humid sun and looks put together enough to stop at a beer garden afterwards. I'm looking forward to buying more colours.

This is my favorite skort! I have two, a current season navy and an earlier orange. The fabric is amazing and performs very well in any condition from cool rainy days to 100+ degree days. It always looks great! Flattering slight a-line with comfortable leg openings and a length that is neither too short nor too long. Please make this in more colors! Light khaki, sage, Nantucket red…or orange again?

I have had this skort for about 3 years and it still looks as good as the day I got it! I typically wear it for work and to the farmer's market more than I do hiking, but it wears extremely well and goes well with a lot of tops! It is super stretchy and comfortable. It has been worn and washed many times and is still holding up well! This isn't surprising though, since it is Outdoor Research and I have yet to be disappointed by one of their products.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my favorite skort (own 3) and really like the updated shorts. Fit, length, material, and pockets are awesome. I would buy more if it came in more colors (dark green, grey). I wear these skorts pretty much every day in the summer. I don't love the black OR/tag branding on the skort which is super visible on the red and khaki colorways; it makes it harder to "dress up" Also, the drawstring is oddly short. I'm 5'8, 165 and bought the large.
