The measurements shown in the size chart above are garment measurements so should be compared to the measurements for a similar garment you already own, rather than your body measurements. For instructions on how to measure please scroll down to see 'Three easy steps to ordering the right size' below. Once you have worked out your size please scroll back up this page to place your order for this item.
⊙ You can view the size chart in inches or centimeters by clicking on the "cm" or "inch" text on the green bar above the chart.

Three easy steps to ordering the right size:

STEP 1:
You will need the following items:
• Measuring tape
• A flat surface (such as a table or counter)
• A notepad and pen
• An item of clothing from your wardrobe that fits comfortably and is a similar style to the one you wish to purchase (e.g. if you want to buy skorts then measure a pair of skorts or a skirt that you own).

How to measure chest/bust/arm/back

STEP 2:
Referring to the images above, place your garment on a flat surface and record the following measurements:
A. 1/2 Waist: Measure across the top of the waistband from corner to corner.
B. Front Rise: Measure from the top of the front waistband to the crotch seam;
C. Outside Leg: Measure from the top of the waistband straight down to the bottom hem.

STEP 3:
Compare your measurements with our size chart and order the size closest to those measurements. 1/2 Waist is usually the most important measurement if you are in a hurry, but checking all three will make for the most comfortable fit.

TIP: If you do not have a measuring tape, use your credit card. The long side of a credit card measures 8.5cm and the short side is 5.4cm. Simply use the centimetre measurements on our chart and divide by 8.5cm to get an idea of how many credit card lengths equals the measurement you are recording.
Please note: If you are unsure about which size to order, please contact us before ordering and we will help you as best we can.

Introduction:
These skorts are ideal for safaris. With the look of a skirt and the functionality of shorts, they are perfect for walking, climbing off and onto Land Rovers, travel, and outdoor activities.

These skorts are a godsend for women travelling to Africa. They are the perfect combination of a flattering safari skirt and the practicality of safari shorts. Made from extremely lightweight, strong fabric, they are ideal for maintaining dignity when climbing on and off Land Rovers, allow you to move freely, and look great on your walking safari or even just to wear around camp. These skorts were made with safaris (and luggage allowances) in mind.

With all of their benefits and features, they are well-suited to the active outdoorswoman. They allow for flexibility and convenience for adventure travel and outdoor hobbies whilst retaining a feminine fit and design that can be enjoyed at the lodge or for daily wear – a great way to diversify your wardrobe and suitcase.

MaraTech™ Ripstop fabric sets itself apart as being cool, lightweight, yet very strong. Its moisture wicking capabilities draw moisture away from the skin to keep you dry and comfortable in warmer climates and the built-in SPF50+ offers maximum sun protection. The SilverPlus anti-bacterial technology keeps your skorts fresh between washes. It is also quick-drying and easily releases wrinkles, making it perfect for travel.

The rise of these skorts sit just above the natural waist for a comfortable, stylish fit and mobility for outdoor adventures. The skorts are done up by means of a zip and button which complement the overall look of the garment. They also have two hand pockets and a button-up back pocket for added convenience.

Say no to plastic packaging
Your Rufiji™ clothing is packaged in a recyclable paper bag. At The Safari Store, we are working hard to eliminate plastic from all of our packaging. This forms part of our commitment to a green future and the preservation of the environment, so future generations can enjoy pristine natural spaces.

Rufiji™ MaraTech™ Safari sKorts – Further Information:

⊙ MATERIAL: Made from 100% strong, lightweight Rufiji™ Ripstop MaraTech™ Polyamide fabric. Ripstop gives the fabric extra strength. Creases are quickly released after unpacking and the fabric is quick to dry for your convenience.

⊙ WICKING: Strong, cool MaraTech™ fabric draws perspiration away from skin and promotes quick evaporation for maximum dryness and comfort.

⊙ SPF50+: The Sun Protection Factor is a measure of the amount of the sun's ultraviolet rays that reach your skin. Our MaraTech™ fabric will protect your skin from harmful sun exposure - in effect, sunblock for your clothing. This is the highest SPF rating we know of on a garment.

⊙ POCKETS: The Rufiji™ MaraTech™ Safari sKorts have two hand pockets and a button-up back pocket which complement the overall look of the skorts and for your convenience.

⊙ FIT: The skorts are secured by means of a zip and button. The rise sits just below the natural waist for style and ease of mobility during outdoor pursuits.

Hi Steve, I just wanted to say the sKorts, in particular, are great - perfect for Africa because they're lightweight and dry very quickly like the shirt. It is also chic yet practical at the same time, so ideal for ladies in the bush. Thank you so much. I've worn them the whole time.

This is the first time I have bought skorts . They are amazingly lightweight fabric, a great deep khaki colour too. Very comfortable. They do come up small though. Great purchase and now waiting for the stone to comeback into stock.

Good quality sort, comfy ...but the waist these things is crazy small...I normally wear a size 10-12 trousers and am, granted, thick waisted and slim thighed but I had to get a size 18 and even then it is a pull to close the waist....and then the thighs feel more billowy then I'd like but I doubt the safari will be a fashion show....if I find myself with supermodels I am revising the review!
