The fabric is also treated with insect repellent, which helps keep mosquitoes and biting insects away. Sure, they can just go and attack your legs since you’re wearing a skirt, but every little bit helps.

The lightweight skirt is ideal in tropical locations, when you can’t stand to wear heavy fabrics. It also comes in handy when cleaning, as you can just toss it in the washer and dryer, or merely wash it in your hotel room sink and hang to dry. Best thing of all—no need to iron. Honestly, no piece of legitimate travel clothing should need ironing, as far as I’m concerned.

There’s just one pocket, but it’s conveniently placed inside the waistband and zippered, so you can treat it as a security pocket to stash a little money and a key when you go out.
