Skort refers to the shorts that have a front covering to resemble a skirt. Skort is somehow similar to a wrap around skirt,, the only difference is that it is made of short.
Author's Note: My sister from Texas has sent me some of these shorts because it is very useful to the Philippine climate. They are always made of denim and they are really useful for everyday wear, however, I thought, when I live in Germany, I don't need them already, as it is always cold, and like my German language teacher said "impractical".
