    Gymnastics shoes?

    I don't see anyone wear gymnastics shoes anymore. Why is that? I was thinking about getting DD some because her feet are so gross. They are peeling and cracked. We do lotion every night. Her dad suggested I just buy her some shoes. He wore them as a gymnast and now as a coach. I just...

    Hi, I was wondering if any of you wear them? Our coach said that we can get them if we want to use on beam and floor but they cost a lot and take ages to wear in like grips. Do you like them? Do they help you? Is bare feet better? Our coach said many of the girls in the gym just wear them as a...

    Parents Beam, Vault, Floor shoes?

    Hi, at a meet this weekend we saw a team wearing shoes for beam, vault and floor. We've never seen any girls do that before. What is the purpose of wearing them - do they really help the girls grip the floor, beam better? Give better traction for vault and tumbling?

    Coaches Gymnastics Shoes

    To be honest I never used gym shoes but was wondering if they actually make any difference? I think barefoot on floor and vault is the most effective but was wondering if anyone knows the real reason gym shoes were invented... My guess, someone in a gym with no heater wanted shoes on their feet...

    Coaches vaulting shoes

    Hi coaches, DO any of your gymnasts wear shoes to vault ? Oldest DD is coming back from achilles pain/injury. The sport tharapist thinks it would be a good idea to return to vault slowly and wearing some kind of footwear. What would you recommend?
