Top Gymnastics Leotard Brands in Canada
Our carefully curated selection includes brands that have earned reputations for quality construction and athlete-focused designs. Each brand brings unique strengths to our gymnastics collection.
Mondor Leotards
Mondor stands out as one of Canada's premier dancewear and gymnastics apparel manufacturers. The brand's commitment to quality construction and innovative fabric technology makes Mondor leotards a reliable choice for gymnasts at all levels. Mondor offers extensive variety.
The Mondor Gymnastics Collection at Jump! includes options for children and women, with price points that accommodate both training budgets and competition needs. Popular styles like the Mondor 27895 Printed Long Sleeve Leotard feature solid fabrics with printed elements for visual interest.
GK Elite Performance Leotards
This brand has built a reputation in the gymnastics community for creating leotards that withstand the demands of elite-level training and competition. While inventory varies, we can help you get great leotards from this respected brand to ensure teams or individual gymnast has access to their preferred designs.
Girl Power Sport for Young Gymnasts
Girl Power Sport specializes in age-appropriate, comfort-focused leotards with playful designs that appeal to younger athletes. The Girl Power Unicorn Forever Perfect Fit Leotard with turquoise sides combines fun unicorn prints with functional design elements, encouraging young gymnasts to love their rehearsal attire.
These biketards and leotards prioritize comfort and durability, recognizing that young athletes need garments that can keep up with their energy and enthusiasm. The tactile fabrics and thoughtful construction details make Girl Power Sport an excellent choice for gymnasts just starting their journey in the sport.
Capezio Quality and Tradition
A brand that brings decades of dancewear expertise to gymnastic apparel. Known for classic designs and consistent kids sizing, Capezio leotards offer reliability that coaches, parents, and athletes appreciate. The brand's attention to construction details ensures seams lie flat and tag-less garments that don't create uncomfortable pressure points during practice.
Dynami Option
Dynami offers the softest fabrics on the market. The Dynami GB214C Flora Burst Gymnastic Biketard demonstrates the brand's commitment to functional design, including a matching scrunchie for a coordinated look.
Biketards for Gymnastics
Beyond traditional leotards, many gymnasts appreciate biketards and unitards for specific training situations. Biketards combine a leotard top with shorts coverage, offering modesty and comfort during practice. The Dynami Flora Burst Tank Biketard provides this coverage while maintaining the flexibility required for movements.
The Mondor 17805 Biketard with Swaths features the Dumbbells print and fully lined construction with a comfort gusset, making it ideal for gymnasts who want something different from standard leotard designs.
Color Selection
Color choices in leotards have expanded dramatically, allowing athletes to select from classic options like black and navy blue to vibrant shades including fuchsia, aqua blue, turquoise, purple, and more. Many of our Mondor and Girl Power Sport leotards incorporate multiple colors through contrasting inserts and printed patterns.
If you're part of a gymnastic team, check with your coach about color requirements before making your purchase. Some teams require specific shades of blue, black, or other colors for uniformity during competitions. Jump! can assist with group orders, ensuring all gymnasts receive coordinated leotards that meet club specifications.
Understanding Color Psychology in Competition
While personal preference drives many color choices, some gymnasts and coaches consider how colors present under competition lighting. Metallic fabrics in blue, purple, and multicolor prints tend to catch light beautifully, creating visual impact that can enhance performance presentation. Darker colors like true black can create sleek, sophisticated looks while vibrant options express energy and confidence.
Caring for Your Leotard
Proper care extends the lifespan of your leotard significantly. Rinse your leotard in cold water to remove sweat and body oils. When it's time for a full wash, hand-washing is ideal, but you can use a gentle machine cycle if you place the leotard in a mesh lingerie bag.
Always use cold water and avoid fabric softeners, which can break down elastic fibers over time. Never put your leotards in the dryerâhang them to air dry away from direct sunlight. This simple care routine will keep your Mondor, Capezio, or Girl Power Sport leotard looking and performing like new regardless of the frequency of rehearsals and competitions.
Storage Tips for Leotard Longevity
Store leotards flat or folded gently rather than hanging them, which can stretch out shoulder straps over time. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources. If you have multiple leotards for practice and competition, rotating them regularly distributes wear evenly and extends the life of your entire collection.
Shopping for Leotards In-Store vs. Online
Jump! offers the flexibility of both in-store shopping in Sudbury and online ordering with fast Purolator shipping across Canada. In-store shopping allows you to try on different brands, cuts and sizes before making a decision. Our knowledgeable staff can provide personalized fitting assistance and answer questions about specific features of each leotard.
When you shop online through our website, you'll find detailed product descriptions, size charts, and customer reviews to guide your purchase. Add items to your cart with confidence, knowing our return policy protects your purchase if the fit isn't quite right. Most orders ship quickly, getting your new leotard to you when you need it for upcoming classes or competitions.
Booking a Fitting Appointment
For the most personalized shopping experience, visit our Sudbury location. During your appointment, we will discuss your specific needs (practice vs. competition, sleeve preferences, budget considerations), and help you try on leotards from our in-stock selection.
Understanding Pricing and Value
Gym leotards at Jump! range from affordable day-to-day options to premium competition designs. Basic tank leotards start around $54.99, while elaborate long-sleeve leos with metallic prints and special features can reach $79.99 or more. These prices reflect the quality construction, performance fabrics, rhinestone designs and brand reputation you're investing in.
When evaluating prices, consider cost per wear. A higher-priced Mondor leotard that lasts through frequent use represents better value than a cheaper option that loses shape or develops tears after a few months. We also offer sale items throughout the year, providing opportunities to add quality leotards to your collection at reduced prices.
Discounts and Bulk Orders for Teams
Gymnastic teams placing bulk orders may qualify for special pricing. Contact our store directly to discuss your team's needs, including specific colors, sizes, and quantity requirements. We can work with you to ensure your entire studio receives coordinated, high-quality leotards within your budget parameters.
Recurring Purchase Programs and Payment Options
For families with young gymnasts who outgrow leotards regularly, understanding your payment options helps with budget planning. While we don't currently offer a formal recurring or deferred purchase program, we accept various payment methods to make your shopping experience convenient.
When purchasing through our website, you authorize the charge to your selected payment method at checkout. For customers interested in spreading payments over time, check whether your credit card offers installment payment options. Always review our cancellation policy and terms before completing your purchase to understand your rights and responsibilities.
Managing Your Order
After placing an order, you'll receive confirmation details including expected fulfillment dates listed. Most in-stock items ship within one to two business days. If you need to cancel your order, contact us immediatelyâcancellations are permitted before the purchase has been fulfilled and shipped. Review the cancellation policy on our website for complete details about timeframes and procedures.
Special Considerations for Growing Gymnasts
Children grow quickly, making leotard sizing an ongoing consideration for parents. When purchasing for a growing gymnast, consider sizing up slightly to extend the wear period. Quality leotards from brands like Mondor maintain their shape even when sized generously, ensuring your child still looks polished during class while accommodating growth.
Keep in mind that gymnasts typically need multiple leotardsâat least two or three for regular use so one can be worn while others are being laundered, plus potentially a special competition leotard. Building a rotation of practice leotards in different cuts and colors keeps practice fresh and exciting while ensuring you always have a clean option ready.
Accessories to Complete Your Look
Beyond leotards, gymnasts need supporting accessories. At Jump!, we carry gymnastic bags from trusted brands, grips to protect hands during bar work, and hair accessories to keep hair secure during routines. The Mondor Gymnastic Leos Collection and the Capezio Leos collection includes coordinating pieces that complement your leotard choices.
Don't forget about proper footwearâwhile many gymnasts train barefoot, some prefer gym shoes for specific activities. Browse our complete gymnastics category to find everything gymnasts needs to succeed on the mat, bars, and beam.

Why Location Matters: Shopping Canadian
Choosing a Canadian retailer for your gear shopping offers distinct advantages. You avoid international shipping delays and customs fees, duties, receive faster delivery through domestic carriers like Purolator, and support a Canadian business that understands the needs of athletes in our country.
Competition Leotards vs. Practice Leotards
Understanding the distinction between practices and competition leotards helps you make smart purchasing decisions. In-class leotards prioritize durability and comfort over elaborate decoration.
Competition leotards feature special details like rhinestone embellishments, intricate prints, metallic fabrics, and dramatic colour combinations. These make an impact under competition lighting and help gymnasts feel confident during performances. While more expensive than daily wear options, competition leotards are investments in your gymnast's competitive success and confidence.
Making the Most of Your Gymnastics Budget
Start with two quality practice leotards that can rotate through regular training. Look for leos with simpler designs that offer lower price points while still delivering the performance features gymnasts need.
As competition season approaches, invest in one special competition leotard that makes gymnasts feel confident and polished. Many families find this one-special-one strategy balances budget constraints with the desire to support their athlete's competitive goals. Check our sale page regularly for opportunities to add quality pieces to your gymnastics wardrobe at reduced price points.
