That is unusual and more interesting than pants.

If they made a sleeveless version of this, it'd look like the person was wearing a skirt hitched up to their neck:

very bizarre - this appeared in my "personalized ADs" for some reason.

No - it wasn't bad. It was a really cool dress (I think) that repurposed a pair or two of jeans. I'm guessing the original poster deleted it.

This isn't a skirt - it's being sold as a pair of add-on pockets. But with a longer skirt, or perhaps a different colored denim skirt, could look cool:

Well, half a skirt which will equally display your bum as well. Perhaps a guy could wear it over pants as a half way transition to wearing a skirt.
Seriously, it could overcome the problem with a skirt that didn't have pockets.

I was thinking the latter situation - skirt sans pockets.

Is it all stuffed inside or added on separately?

There is a zipper all the way round the hem of the short skirt which attaches to top of the extension bit which has the other side of the zipper. In a site selling the skirt new they call it a "zip off tech cargo skirt" https://www.generalpants.com/gb/insight ... GE-GP.html

Just further shows how wide skirt design is compared to trousers, although I believe there are trousers where the legs can be zipped off to form shorts.
Daily, a happy man in a skirt...

When I was a Scout leader our uniform pants had zip-off legs around the knee area to convert to and from shorts, handy on hikes where the weather changes from low elevation to high elevations. Never saw a skirt form though! Neat.

Nice skirt(s) , but just my luck, either too short or too long, for me at least.

My Mountain Hardware hiking kilts are made of very similar fabric and the same colour...I love wearing them ..Definitely more skirt wrap skirt than a kilt I guess ..I'd never get away with one this short and long would be no good for me either but good to see something different ..
