If you like the texture of the material of the skirts, this is the exact same thing. I got my wife the skirts before, and so I decided to get myself the pants. Surprisingly deep pockets! My phone just slipped right in. It’s lightweight enough to go outside the spring/summer. I originally got myself a large, because I was in between sizes. So after I got a medium and it fits way better/true to size. The only bone I could pick with it is that the thigh section feels more skinnier and not as baggy as I could like, but it is not a dealbreaker. Overall it’s pretty solid pants, amazing patterns, and if you are in between sizes like me, make sure you double measure yourself and pick the one that is closer to your size!
