    Manufacturers wouldn't be making them if they didn't sell. I believe the bottom line for manufacturers is profit. I wear skorts for tennis, biking, etc. Always have, always will. I love them. Also skirts over biking shorts, and apparently the OP does too. I find them very practical. You go from bike to anywhere else without the biking shorts look. Not everyone has the same taste. It's okay with me if you don't want to wear skirts, but I'm not sure why you care whether or not I do.

    I love the way cycling skorts look, but the ones I have don't have the quality level in the shorts that I am used to, even though they are Terry skorts. Still, I wear them all the time when I am doing errands/going to appointments on my bike. They are cute, casual, and good for when I am going in and out of stores and professional buildings.
    I have 2 running skorts that I love. I wear them almost exclusively when walking/running or doing local hikes. I wore it when I did my one and only race, and I didn't really care what others thought. It was 90 degrees and humid out and I was very comfortable, with no shorts creeping up.
