No, seriously. A very interesting skirt. I dread to think what it looks like with all the zips undone! No, we don't want a pic! A good buy?
Really sinned - ONLY one zipper is functional - the fun is guessing which one !

And agree Vertical Zippers and Horridzontal Stripes - look out for those STARS in the ratings !

WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !

More vertical stripes. It would be good for riding a bicycle at night.
I didn't buy this one though.

Okay, I Googled it.

Athena Outdoors. Athenagarments.com. I had some skirts made with my fabric. I like camouflage, denim, khaki in lightweight stretch fabric. Some are wrap skirts, some are pull on with elastic waist. They are in Tucson, AZ

I had seen the Athena bike skirt video but the fabrics were not my taste - interesting that you had some made to your choice. Certainly alot cheaper than the eBay one above.

I could not afford to even think about bidding on that one.

So what is it made with Gold thread??

Maybe when MGM cast me as their next film gladiator they'd buy me a couple, one to wear while filming, the other one in the wash!

I noticed a skirt on Ebay labeled unisex with a male model that looks comfortable and is very reasonably priced at $8.85 including shipping. It even has sizes for those with waists from 26" to 46".

I'd get it if it had pockets as I always like my pocket knife and a handkerchief with me. I might anyway. My wife would like that it is marketed for males.

They look like fun for a breezy summer day.
I have been agonising over whether to buy this green one - has belt loops but again, no pockets. I had a friend staying for a few weeks, helping me with some renovation work and when going out to dinner I had to ask him to carry my keys because I had no pockets in the skirt I was wearing..

I went out on EBAY to see the item and see from where it was being shipped. I found three different sellers offering it for as low as 4.95 dollars US. Plus shipping of around 2.00$. It ships directly from China in a pre-pac setup. I decided I was not going to avail myself of this item even though I thought it was really nice. I have had problems with China pre-pac before.

I was initially encouraged by the title of this one:

Only to find out the Proudman is a surname.

Not quite eBay, but I found this in a local M&S and bought it in a navy blue colour; very comfy and pockets bigger that usual.

Another thing I’ve got is this, but they didn’t have my size, so it’s slightly loose.
