I'm 13 and jsut starting cheerleading this year and I was wondering: What type of clothing is good for cheerleading practice? I know definitely soffe shorts, and I also have nike sneakers. What are good brands or types of tank tops/ t-shirts are good for practice but aren't extremely expensive. Also if you have any other kinds of shorts that would help too. THanks!

Most of the girls wear Soffe shorts, like you said, and either old t-shirts OR these like $5 wife beater-type tank tops you can get at Target. They're by Mossimo, I think and they come in all different colors for really cheap. Wal-Mart probably has them too. I don't really know of any other types of shorts that are better than Soffe shorts, though. Many of my friends are in dance and they wear Soffe's and wife beaters all the time to dance. Hope I helped and good luck this year :) [ uisforukelele's advice column | Ask uisforukelele A Question ]
MelLeDisko answered Saturday August 19 2006, 2:25 am: I would just go to K-Mart or Target or maybe even the dollar store or something and see if they're selling any tank tops or just shirts. Tank tops or those beater things would probably be the best. And the best kind of tank top in my opinion to get is to look for the kind that already have the built-in-bra. Now, I already wear a bra underneath it, but I just do it so my chest isn't jiggling all over the place or whatever, haha. But soffe shorts would be the best shorts to cheerlead in in my opinion. I hope I helped. <3 [ MelLeDisko's advice column | Ask MelLeDisko A Question ]

I got some really cute like exercising tops at kohls and they also have them at sears and they have a good built in sports bra, are a nice breathable material, and have the racerback back on them which is pretty cool. I know cools has alot of beaters on clearace which you can check out. just the key thing is that it is easy to move it and isnt too hot.

DarkChocolate794 answered Friday August 18 2006, 9:04 pm: most cheerleading attire you can get from wal-mart. if you want t-shirts and tank tops you can buy the stuff from Hanes that is cheap aand come in packs. If you are one of those ppl who hate shopping at wal-mart because its 'cheap' or whatever BS reason you have you can try any mall that has sears or jcpenny's. That's pretty much all i can think of and remember if all else fail you can google search it. [ DarkChocolate794's advice column | Ask DarkChocolate794 A Question ]

cheerhunny0x0 answered Friday August 18 2006, 7:48 pm: I've been cheering since i was in 3rd grade. Basically you need like at least 3-5 sports bras. They have some at walmart that are not the cheap crappy material, they are like anywhere from 10-30 and they hold you in pretty good if you know what i mean. as long as you have a good sports bra you're set. What i usually wear are tank tops that are light and are easy to work out in, stuff from target or walmart, i'm not a big spender either. Try to avoid sporting goods stores because they have really high prices and rip you off. Kohls also have good sports apparel, including soffe shorts. I have soffe shorts in every color so i would stick with them because they have a reasonable price. Good luck with cheer, tell me how it goes.
