WAG Where to buy leotards and accessories?

[Deleted member 29613]

Hi, I recently started doing gymnastics again after quite a long time away from the sport and I'm now at the point where I need to start wearing leotards in training and using grips again.
But I don't know which leotards brands are good? Everything has changed and I'm hoping I can get some advice here.
Thanks!

We have athletes in just about every leotard brand out there. If you name the ones you are looking at... people may have specific thoughts on certain brands.

So far I've been considering GK and Quatro.
I have also been wondering how comfortable the newer leotard materials are? I have sensory processing problems and prefer softer materials against my skin.

But if anyone has any other brand suggestions that would be great

Gymgear in Canada make really soft leotards. Definitely the softest that my daughter has. For the most part she just has cheap ones from Aliexpress, some of which are nice and soft. Most are just standard material and pretty decent for the price. Some are absolutely rubbish though, so worth looking at the reviews.

My daughter pretty much only wears Sylvia P or Ozone. She does have a couple Quatro and GK though too. There’s so many brands out there now,

Thank you, I'll take a look

Thank you, I've not heard of Plum before. I will definitely check it out though

My girls loved Snowflake leotards. Whenever they offer grab-bag leotards, you can leave a note explaining your sensory issue, color preferences (or dislikes), neckline preferences (one of my girls could NOT have a neckline anywhere close to the front of her neck because they choked her), etc. They have been so great to us over the years.

That sounds great!
I definitely understand the issue with necklines.

GymGear in Canada have very soft Leo’s. They are definitely my favourite and most comfortable Leo’s I have tried.

Gk is personally my favorite but you should try brands like melody leotards , OZONE leotards , Quatro ,and Sylvia P.

I looked at GymGear and whilst they have nice accessories, their leotard sizes are limited unfortunately.

Thanks, I do personally like Quatro a lot. But I sometimes feel like I'm missing out by limiting myself to just one brand.

My favorite brand is ozone. They also have a line called Chalk Warrior that are blingy and expensive, and hard to get. They sell out in seconds.

I didn't know that. Probably for that reason I'm guessing

Lol! CW leos are a big thing with some. There are CW resale fb groups and used leotards will sell for more than their original retail price.
