I think I have been to the Rosin Box in Philadelphia. I bought a capezio tank unitard there. There was an older gentleman working there at the time -- this was about 12 years ago.
Regarding dancewear store experiences, I used to go to a place in Norfolk, VA that was great. The owner was a woman (mid thirties) who always wanted to see how things looked on me. I used to buy a lot of stuff there because she was so cool. I was looking for a black leotard one time; she didn't have any men's leotards so she suggested a woman's. She handed me a black, long sleeve, turtleneck leotard and told me to try it on. She told me to come out so she could take a look. I walked out and she said, "It fits you perfectly." She adjusted the leotard around my butt a little and said, "That looks nice." One other time I was trying on men's unitards. Again, I modeled them for her. Very cool woman.
I also love talking about tights, leotards and ballet. My email is mmatthys2@aol.com.[/i]
