>Hi jj!  You asked....>>Why is it that dancers shy away rom the shiny nylon/lycra and wear more ctton nowadays. Nylon/lycra feels more comfortable and is a lot sexier looking.>In classes, the sexier look is less important.  During an hour-and-a-half class, the danseur wants to be comfortable.>For me and many of my friends, cotton/lycra is more comfortable than nylon/lycra.  Don't get me wrong, I wear shiny nylon/lycra sometimes, but prefer the cotton/lycra for classes.  It tends to be "warmer.">As far as the "sexy" look, most dancers want to look "sexy" when they perform, but during classes comfort is more important.  Sexy is not so important when the dancer is working to train.>So it goes!>balletboy

Invariably, I end up soaked with sweat in almost every class I take.  It actually gets worse in the winter, when studio owners in this part of the U.S. seem to crank up the thermostat about as high as it goes.

So my aim in comfort is finding a fabric for dancewear that "breathes."  In this respect, cotton/lycra blends are about the only game in town.  CoolMax and other synthetics that wick moisture away from the skin, are available in men's exercise/running tights, and in some women's dancewear - just not in men's dancewear.
