Position:Home>Dancing> Where, online, can I find toddler ballet dance-wear for boys?


Question:I can't use eBay, it just never works for me. I want actual sites please, no directions on how to use a search engine. And please, only sites where you know they sell toddler boy dancewear for ballet. Please no, "Try this site... they might have it."

Thanks so much in advance, everybody! I've been scouring the web and haven't found anything under the size 5-6. My son is in 3T.

I've danced for 22 years and worked in dance retail for a long time. Its very difficult to get toddler size clothing, especially fi a shop needs ot custom order it. At his age just get him a fitted white top and black cotton shorts or pants. I doubt he'll even be required to wear ballet shoes, but if he is, he'll need black ones. Capezio sells black, full sole childrens slippers. There is no such thing as a specific boys shoe, so dont let the fmeinine looking quality fo the shoe deter you. As he gets older he'll likely switch to a different bra=nd without those qualities. That style is the capezio 205...which ahs flowers printed inside...sorry! I highly HIGHLY reccomend Bailey Slipper Shoppe in Buffalo. There is info ont heir website www.baileyslippershop.com, or you can call them directly and they are wonderful to work with, will ship out as effectively as humanly possible! 716-634-0314. Please remember that ballet shoes do not run like street shoe, muich smaller actually. In fact, I suggest actually calling Bailey so you can choose a size together.

I thought this would be easy...a quick google search and I'd have dozens of sites for you...now I see why you're asking for other people to help. The only site I could find that even comes close is

http://www.onstagedancewear.com

If you go to the Made to Order section, you can find some things. They list their smallest size as 4-6. But if you call them, they might work with you - especially if you have your son's measurements handy...

Sorry I couldn't be of more help!

You might find something on www.discountdance.com

I would just buy him a black pair of shorts and a fitting white t-shirt though. Black ballet shoes, please don't give him pink ones!

The reason they don't have your son's size is because you're not really supposed to start kids that early. Ballet is way too structured for really little kids, so you might just want to put him in a creative movement class. My other concern is that you don't know if he actually WANTS to be in a ballet class, and you should wait a couple of years to see if he's even interested in any type of dance, let alone ballet.
