The Skirt Sports story

The idea for Skirt Sports was born in December 2003. As summarized by our founder, Nicole DeBoom: "I was having a crummy day so I did what I usually do in that case. I went running." The run was restoring sanity to DeBoom's day until she glimpsed her reflection in a store window. "Eeek, I look like a boy again," she fretted. "Why can't I look pretty when I work out? Why can't I feel like an athlete and a woman?" Then came a flash of divine fashion inspiration. "This is the moment I first conceived of Skirt Sports. I thought, wouldn't it be cool to give women the chance to have very functional and performance driven sportswear that was still sexy, sporty and fun? No matter what level of athlete you are, we all want to look good while we're working at looking and feeling better."
