They have them there? Do they, I need one.
yea!
You don't say how old or what size leo. Wal Mart does sell Dancekins. But I haven't seen an adult leotard there. Check out dance studios in your area. some may have a basic black leo. that they sell.
Walmart is a good place if you are looking for something cheap, but a dance store would always be a better store even if it is slightly more expensive. Even so, they are usually made with better materials. Just for you I did a short yahoo search and this seems to be the most promising site: http://www.discountdance.com/index.php Hope this helps=) P.s. Just as a side note, I am not gay... Just trying to help.
To be honest, neither payless or walmart are good stores to be buying dance clothes or shoes. You should either buy your shoes at the studio or go to a dance specialty store. Same with your leotard. The clothes at walmart are not good quality and your leotard will be falling appart after a few weeks. The material used in many of their leotard also doesn't let your skin breathe properly. Also, the dance shoes at payless are really cheaply made and are not suitable for anyone over the age of six.
Walmarta nd payless are the WORST place to go. Cheap, and don't fit the way the leo or the shoes should fit. Please go to a local dance shop and make that investmment. You'll need to go there fror the tights, anyway. Payless shoes are filled with vinal and foam liner, they rip and they'r cheesy. The leos don't hold up, either. Spend a bit more, it will save you in the long run. Moreover, its near impossible to find adult sizes in those kinds of places
First of all what kind of dance school do you go to that they let you buy your dancewear at walmart and payless. The shoes there are meant to be slippers and the leotards are velvet-y and not reccomended by any dance school that I have ever heard of. Not to be mean, but that is like cheap-o city. If you plan on using it for a long period of time, invest some good money into it. I promise it won't hurt you!
