Coaches competition leotard brands

[director of gym]

Hi: we are going to be looking at new leos. We have always done GK, but they are getting sooo expensive. Does anyone have pros/cons of Slyvia P or Ozone leos.

Thank you

I'm a parent, but our gym uses Ozone, and all the families are happy. The cost is decent, and the quality has been great!

Parent here, we love our Sylvia Ps but they are more expensive than our GK ones were, so probably not a cost effective switch.

Look at Milano, you will have shipping from the UK (and maybe tariffs???), but far, far cheaper than GK and Sylvia P. Fit and quality are very good.

We used champion last season in attempt to cut back on cost they weren't bad many girls liked them I think we are going back to Gk soon because of new leadership

We've used Ozone since 2017, and they are always cut small. I always recommend that the gymnasts get a leotard that is at least one size larger than the tank leotards they wear to practice. This year we had an issue with them being made incorrectly and the entire lot had to be re-made. The newer ones were even smaller than usual, and many people are having to get new ones or trade around for a bigger one. We have also had problems with the gems popping off this year (not in the past, though).

As far as quality, they are always the sparkliest leotard brand I've seen, I can always tell an Ozone by the sparkle. The material is also good quality, they just need to stop cutting them so high and get realistic sizing. A 10-year-old should not be wearing an Adult Medium.

Second this! My (ozone) high school leotard is WAY smaller than my comp one (GK for comp).

My gym is switching to spektrum for our comp leotards this year. I've only had spektrum practice leotards, so I dont have any opinions on the comp ones yet. (I get sized for it in a couple weeks, but their regular cuts are a bit higher, so if you have a longer torso, you need to get the long sizes)

Definitely agree on the size point. My DD's first comp leo (ozone) as a tiiiiiiny 11 year old was an AXS, while most of the leos she wore at the time were CL.

DD has had spektrum for 5 years or so. They're somewhat expensive, quality is ok. Leo came with a few missing crystals, and a bunch of DD's teammates had to send in their leo the get the back clasp fixed after the first meet this year, but other than that, they're pretty nice. Very very high cut.
