Ladies shouldn’t have to compromise style when choosing their outdoor apparel, but they needn’t worry. Outdoor apparel designers are listening to women’s desire for functional yet feminine apparel that will withstand camping, hiking, bicycling — you name it, it’s got to be able to do it. Here are a few of our picks from SunnySport’s great selection of outerwear and other apparel for women.
Marmot Sadie Skirt – $65 FREE SHIPPING!
Although most girls’ first choice for hiking gear wouldn’t be a cute dress or a skirt, there’s no reason that has to remain the same. Outdoor apparel designers have managed to create clothing that compliments the female form without compromising its function, like the Sadie skirt from Marmot. Constructed from a super soft, breathable performance fabric, this Dri-Release skirt offers permanent moisture wicking and quick-drying properties, as well as protection from odors with the Fresh Guard finish.
