What makes it special?
Timeless design in combination with high end material technology and smart details has always been a Houdini concept. W’s Walkabout Skirt is designed to provide shade for lazy days in the sun but it is also surprisingly functional for the more active days. Take it hiking or bring it on your paddling trip. The cool, light and quick drying materials are up for any adventure.

How does it work?
W’s Walkabout Skirt is made with Wish Woven™, one of our lightest fabrics with a cool feeling and great next-to-skin comfort, perfect for hot and humid climates. The construction of the skirt, with a long side slit and buttons along the side lets you customize the fit for your needs. Button up if you are hiking through terrain and let it down when you want the shade on beach days. Two side pockets will hold your essentials and a hidden inner pocket with zipper works as a stow pocket.

When should I use it?
The functional material, smart details and timeless form makes W’s Walkabout Skirt a highly versatile garment for any summer wardrobe. Great for traveling and beach days, but also for camping, paddling or hiking. Challenge it and you will not be disappointed!

This garment is recyclable and we kindly ask you to return it to Houdini when it is completely worn out. The raw materials can become new products and nothing will go to waste.

Synthetic materials

When washing clothes made of synthetic fabrics, the use of a washing bag becomes even more important: It prevents microplastics from entering into rivers and oceans.

Air clothes instead of washing to save water, energy and to make the garments last longer.
Use a washing bag to protect your garments and to prevent fibers from leaking. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe it clean and throw the lint in your trash can. Never rinse it in water since we don’t want the fibers to end up in lakes or oceans.
Machine wash, max 40 °C/104 °F.
Use mild environmentally certified detergents and make sure to use the right dose.
Avoid fabric softener. Besides being harmful for our environment, they have a negative impact on the garment performance, mainly moisture transportation and breathability.
Tumble dry on low heat.
Iron on low heat.

Circular

The Circular label means that this product is made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today's society are made in a linear lifecycle, where earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This is not working in the long run and comes at a great environmental impact. Instead, we want to close the loop and reuse the material we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us through the recycling units we have in all our own stores and at many retailers.

Recycled

The Recycled label means that this garment contains at least 50% recycled fibers (often more, see product description). The source is either recycled clothes or other sources like PET bottles. We mainly use recycled polyester, which has many benefits. It reduces both CO2 emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester. How much depends on the type of recycling. One of our suppliers show 32% less CO2 emissions and 94% less water use for mechanically recycled polyester. Besides the production impact, the major shift is using "waste" as raw material instead of crude oil.

Recyclable

The Recyclable label means that the raw material in this product can be used for new products, instead of becoming waste. Our goal is that by 2030, we will take no raw material to our products from the earth's crust. Circular products, made from reycled and recyclable materials are a real game changer, but we need your help for the system to work. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us. We have recycle units in all of our own stores and at many retailers.
