NCAA 2026 NCAA Leotards

[Ms Motts]

That LSU leo is a strappy back done well. By all means have the straps - they’re pretty, but line them (with non-flesh coloured fabric), and then they’re also flattering and practical.

No photo, as I'm watching on TV, But I am 99% sure GWU is wearing a navy blue velvet leo with white sheer sleeves. Rhinestones on bodice. It's very 1998.

It does look like the bottom is velvet

Thanks for the pic. Was hard to really see with the quad view they used for the broadcast (and I was trying to make soup at the same time). So not sheer, just white lycra. Looks like maybe mystique where the rhinestones are, and then velvet bottom.

Still very late '90s early '00s vibe.

Velvet seems to be making a comeback; IL also had velvet leos today.

Should be lots of gems coming out of conference champs; here's some "highlights" from day 1:
Rutgers fully embracing the knight theme:

Illinois using that awful ribbed fabric:

Illinois State with a bad so open you can see it from the side view:

Washington brought back the skyline leo:

Nebraska:

 

[hmmmm]

Is leotard construction being outsourced to Temu.

 

[Amber]

I kind of like the Rutgers leo

 

[Sasha]

I appreciate that Rutgers really committed. I think the ribbed fabric is fine. Illinois still sucks at photos though.

Open sides give me the heebie-jeebies.

Day 2, far too much white and a ton of awful backs.
Arkansas:

ASU:

Missouri:

UCLA:

Michigan:

LSU:

West Virginia:

Iowa:

 

[Kara]

And they keep getting worse; I hate all of these.
Oklahoma:

Alabama:

Ohio State:

Oh man most of them look awful, at least in the pics. Way too much. Here's hoping that the MSU leo is pretty. I actually like the U of M one, which is rare for me(but I'm conditioned to hate all things Wolverine )
