How this section is put together

The jersey bermuda short is the most reviewed piece in the whole store, with more than 18,000 ratings behind it. Soft knit, deep pockets, knee length. It is not technical gear and does not pretend to be.

On the skorts, count the pockets before the length. The 20 inch model carries seven, which is a golf number: two balls, a tee, a phone and a scorecard without a bag.

Knee length

The 9 to 12 inch bermudas, in soft jersey or stretch woven.

Skorts with pockets

Four to seven pockets, shorts underneath, high stretch waistband.

Washing and wear

Check the liner length

On skorts the inner short is usually two inches above the hem. If the size chart lists both, that gap is what stops the ride up.
