Here Are 12 Reasons You Need an Athletic Skort in Your Life

This ribbed Eleven by Venus Williams Can't Stop Won't Stop Skirt ($88) has everything you need. The A-line silhouette is adorable, and it's got pockets for tennis balls or your phone. It also comes in black and navy blue, but the white is our favorite.

We love the Outdoor Voices Court Skort ($58) for its modern take on a wardrobe staple. It's made of the brand's signature Textured Compression fabric, so it holds you in in the best possible way. If you're not so into the pleats or ruffles, this is a great, minimal option.

So many cute tennis skirts have pleats. We like that this Baleaf Pleated Tennis Skirt ($27, originally $29) is just pleated at the back, and we love the coral color, but it also comes in lots of different, more neutral options. Plus, since it's under $30, you could try two!

Serve it up in this adorable, easy-to-move-in Athleta Ace Tennis Skort ($69). It has side pockets in the shorts and a back zippered pocket for all your valuables. Plus, don't be surprised if you find you don't want to change when you go to brunch.

You can do just about anything in this Nike Bliss Luxe Training Skort ($60). It has two side pockets, as well as shorts underneath for extra coverage. Plus, how fun is the pink? It also comes in an olive green as well as black, if that's more your speed.

When we want something comfortable, affordable, and functional, we turn to Old Navy. This Old Navy Extra High-Waisted PowerSoft Skort ($33) is as classic as it gets; it has built in side pockets, is super lightweight and breathable, and comes in a bunch of colors. Plus, our editor is a fan; read her review of the Old Navy skort.

As useful and versatile as black, white, and navy skorts are, sometimes you feel like a pop of color. That's where this Alo Grand Slam Tennis Skirt ($78) comes in. It's back in stock, and the fit is amazing. It'll make you feel like you can really ace your serve, and plus, it comes in a bunch of vibrant colors. The shorts underneath have pockets, so it's functional too!

This Tory Sport Side-Slit Tennis Skirt ($138) has a retro style that we love so much. It will look great with a polo shirt or white tank. The white style is timeless, but it also comes in a navy with white piping and a navy with burgundy piping.

The material of this Girlfriend Collective Skort ($62) is so soft and buttery, you won't want to take it off. It comes in five colors, but we love this moss green. Plus, with Girlfriend Collective, it's so easy to find a matching bra or top that you love to go with it.

This Alo Varsity Tennis Skirt ($72) comes in a few colors like pink, white, and black, but we love the navy, and it's finally back in stock! Tennis skirts are everywhere right now, and there's nothing not to like about this pleated style. It even has pockets!

This UrKeuf Athletic Tennis Skirt ($27) is a customer favorite, and an editor one too! See our editor style this Amazon skirt here. We love it paired with a sports bra and button down shirt, but you could also use it to, you know, play tennis.

We're very into the mesh skirt on this Eleven by Venus Williams Outskirt Shortie ($84). Combined with the bike shorts peeking through, it's got a look that's a little bit athletic, and a little bit fashion forward. It also comes in black and light blue.
