OT - Zumba

Does anyone know where you can by Zumba fitness clothing and dance shoes? Thanks.

I just go to Zumba in my sweats or something comfortable. I don't wear shoes if I can get away with it.

The instructor of the class that I have gone to sold them and would announce when she had new shipments in. I haven't seen them otherwise. So, maybe start with your instructor.

I have only ever worn my regular workout clothes and tennis shoes, but some others in my club have purchased the clothes.

Huh? I've never seen zumba clothes or shoes. Everyone at our club including the instructors wear regular work out clothes and sneakers.

Many people in my Zumba class wear regular workout clothes, but several of us have purchased from Zumba.com via our instructor.

http://www.zumba.com/us/shop/type/zumbawear/ is a great source for Zumba clothes. The site shows US, but you get to select your shipping country so you can choose Canada.

The Zumba cargo pants are huge at my gyms. Pretty much the only place you can get them is at the zumba.com website or through people selling them on ebay. If your instructor is able to order them that is usually the cheapest way since they get a discount. I have two of the tank tops, both bought from my instructors for about $19 each. The cargos are still a bit too pricey for me.

I haven't seen too many people wearing the Zumba sneakers they sell. The Nike Zoom sisters have been pretty popular in my classes. I have a pair of Nike Musiques that I use just for class. I can't recommend them enough! I had been using regular sneakers and was having problems with my feet, and nearly twisted my knee a few times. The Musiques have a smooth pivot spot on the ball of the foot, and are more flexible through the arch. It makes all the turns and twists in Zumba so much easier on the body. I found mine at Bob's Stores for about $30 after using a few coupons and reward certificates. It would have been money well spent even at full price.

I just got the Nike Musiques as well and they are much better, with the twists and turns I had injured my foot and knee, hopefully no more. Paid $24at our local Sears. They were $79. then $48, and I got them on a 50% off day.

Those Nike Musiques are on the narrow side, so be sure to try them on and walk around good before buying. My foot is right at the edge of wide, and no way could I even think of wearing these.

I bought some hip-hop dance shoes from a dance store. They are popular in my classes. They felt great in the store, but after 20 minutes or so, my feet start hurting. Unfortunately they cost me more than $70, so I'll be suffering through for awhile. If you wnat to try dance shoes, start w/ the Capezios or SoDanca's. I know you can get the Capezio's for $35 or less online. The ones I got are Bloch, and theya re more expensive. I'm sure the store jsut gave me the most expensive ones, LOL!

I find Nike's run narrow overall. I had to size up for mine (I have horribly wide feet), and get the ones that have the mesh like uppers and I was okay. My mother uses Capezio dance sneakers, but they didn't work for me at all when I tried hers out. The right shoes make such a difference though.
