The Zone gymnastics leotards are designed for a close, flexible fit. Use actual body measurements rather than age alone wherever possible. For leotards, girth is especially important because it reflects the full length of the torso. If measurements fall between two sizes, the larger size is usually the better starting point.

For gymnastics leotards, girth is the key measurement when the numbers point to different sizes. If height or chest suggests one size but girth sits closer to the next, choosing the larger size will usually give a more comfortable torso fit.
How to Measure for The Zone Gymnastics Leotards
Measure over underwear or close-fitting clothing using a flexible tape measure. Stand naturally and keep the tape comfortably against the body without pulling it tight.
Girth
Key MeasurementUsing a flexible tape measure, start at the centre of one shoulder. Bring the tape down the front of the torso, through the crotch and back up to the same shoulder, creating one complete loop.
Keep the tape comfortably close to the body without pulling it tight. Girth is especially useful when choosing between two leotard sizes.
Chest
Measure around the fullest part of the chest, keeping the tape straight and level around the body. The tape should sit comfortably without compressing the chest.
Waist
Measure around the natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape level and comfortably close to the body.
Hips
Measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat while standing naturally. Keep the tape level all the way around.
Hips are not included in this particular The Zone size table, but they can still be useful when checking overall body proportions and leotard coverage.
Height
Stand straight without shoes, with feet flat on the floor, and measure from the floor to the top of the head.
The Zone uses numbered gymnastics sizes rather than standard clothing sizes. Current girls' styles commonly progress from size 24 for younger children through sizes 26, 28, 30 and 32, with size 34 moving into Women's Small on many models. Use age only as a guide and prioritise actual body measurements, particularly girth, when choosing a leotard.

Sparkle for Every Stretch
The Zone Inspire Z806 girls’ sleeveless gymnastics leotard combines a sublimated ombré mesh overlay with sparkling diamanté detail for classes, club training and display routines. Its broad shoulder straps, round neckline and scoop back give it a familiar gymnastics shape, while the sleeveless cut leaves the arms free to reach and extend. A flexible fabric blend of 78% recycled nylon and 22% elastane brings stretch to the design, with a crystal waist detail that continues around the back for a finish young gymnasts can enjoy from every angle.
The Zone Inspire Z806 Sleeveless Gymnastics Leotard – Design & Performance
The sublimated ombré mesh overlay sits across the upper bodice, adding a gradual colour fade to Inspire’s angular front design. Diamantés scattered over the front pick out the shape, while narrow contrast edging gives the round neckline and armholes a defined finish.
The 78% recycled nylon and 22% elastane fabric blend provides a smooth, flexible base for reaching, bending and practising familiar skills. The sleeveless tank cut leaves the arms uncovered, with broad shoulder straps framing the upper body. It is a practical shape for young gymnasts who enjoy the feel of bare arms during training.
Neat rows of diamantés around the waist link the decorated bodice to the plain lower body and continue around the back. Above them, a simple scoop back keeps the design balanced. This sleeveless version shares the dressed-up look of the long sleeve Inspire Z785, making it a lovely option for children who enjoy the same sparkle with less arm coverage.

The Zone Inspire Z806 Gymnastics Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile offers a simple guide to fit, feel and movement. This profile describes The Zone Inspire Z806; individual fit and feel may vary.
Who Is Inspire Z806 Best For?
A lovely choice for young gymnasts who enjoy a detailed, sparkling leotard and prefer a sleeveless shape for classes or club training. Inspire also brings a special touch to display routines, with decoration across the front and around the waist. For parents choosing between the two Inspire styles, the Z806 offers the same coordinated look with the arms left uncovered.
Product Highlight
✦ A Sparkling Finish, Front to Back
The prettiest finishing touch is the diamanté waist detail that continues around the back, bringing the whole design together. Paired with the ombré bodice and sleeveless shape, it gives Inspire a polished look for a favourite routine and that proud final pose.
Sleeveless or Long Sleeves for Gymnastics?
Both can be good options for gymnastics. A sleeveless leotard leaves the arms uncovered and may suit children who prefer a bare-arm feel during practice. Long sleeves offer more arm coverage, although the feel will depend on the fabric. Ask your child which style they find comfortable, and check your club’s dress requirements before choosing.
A comfortable fit matters with either style. Ask your child to reach both arms overhead and bend gently when trying it on. The neckline and straps should sit neatly, with no uncomfortable pulling at the shoulders or leg openings. Choose using the brand’s measurements rather than age alone.
