New Zumbawear Launched at Convention 2011

Any Zumba instructor can tell you – we live for the new Zumba wear releases.  It’s a sickness really.  One of the perks of going to convention is you get to see the newest release before everyone else does!  I wish I had, had enough sense to actually stop and take photos of all the new stuff but let’s be honest, I was a crazy Zumba instructor in a store full of crazy Zumba clothes – that just didn’t happen!  But, I’ve taken photos of all the new stuff I bought myself, and I have photos of people wearing a lot of the other new stuff I didn’t buy so I can at least give you a sneak peek at what’s to come in the next few weeks!  That’s better than nothing right?  Here you go!

This also comes in a lime green colour, and maybe black or grey?  Not sure about that last one.

t

his one also comes in a lime green

these also come in a purple/green combo.  I find these more comfy than the logo stamp carpis from last year – and they run true to size.

this crop top/shrug also comes in grey and is part of the new “performance” line of wicking clothes (finally!)

I love this hoodie!  It runs true to size, I actually ended up with an XS because they didn’t have any small or medium left and this fit me better than the large.  It also came in another colour, black I think?  I don’t remember for sure though.

This is the reverse side of the above hoodie.

 

You can see the matching capri’s that go with that hoodie on Lindsay, she’s also wearing a new released top (it comes in white and grey too I believe)

On the maniqan you can see the new purple Zumba tights with attached ribbons that you can wrap down the leg as shown here, our up your torso – or however you want!  You can also see part of the matching bra, one of the new headliner tops and the new bandanas.

Here’s a better shot of the bandana (they come in a 3-pack of pink, blue and green)

Here I’m wearing the black version of those tights – the glowing part on my leg actually says “Zumba” but it went crazy with the camera flash.  I’m also wearing one of the new bubble tops.  They came in black, lime green with instructor on the back, blue for aqua, gold for gold, and I think there were purple and pink versions for toning and Zumbatomic.  When we got to the store on the second day all the was left was XS/S (which was too tight for me even though my grey one from last year is S/M) and XL/XXL which is what I got.  SInce I’m so tall the bigger size works fine for me.

This isn’t a great pic but on the left you can sort of see the new wonderland pants and capris.  They come in pink, blue and grey.  Here’s a better photo of someone wearing them

{Updated} Sandra (another Zumba instructor) sent me some better photos of the new Wonderland pants to share.

and the back with some of the new scarf snap on tassels

There are also some new wonder cargos and cargo capris

These also came in a Blue with purple accents and black and aqua which you can see if you look to the very left of this photo (black) and on the middle right (blue) the girl in the blue capris is also wearing a new pink tank.

I tried on some of the capris but they just didn’t look go on me.

It’s sort of blurry but here are the new purple pants:

which also came in lime green and a grey colour.

They were also selling different tassels you could buy for the pants.  Some with bells, some with studs, ones for the different specialties and even some that were like little scarves

{update: see photo above for the scarf like tassels}.

Sandra also sent along a photo of the carpet slip-ons we all got with our registration package.  They will be for sale in the zumba shop too.  I found they worked pretty well, and would certainly be good if you are teaching in a carpeted location!

I almost forgot! There is also a new release of the sexy back shirt.  My camera battery died so I can’t show you a really good photo of it but here I am wearing it

and no, Holly’s crazy blue tights aren’t Zumba tights – those are from Nike!

Here’s a shot that sort of shows the back:

You can sort of see that is says “Zumba” on the back.  I really like this one!

There is still a lot of stuff I don’t have photos of, the new performance line which included leggings, bras, tops, hats, shirts of the dudes lots of things (because it is performance wear it was more expensive) plus all of the new men’s stuff, new Z1′s, underwear for both dudes and chicks, a new bag, water bottle, and I’m sure I’m still forgetting lots of things. FYI – Holly bought the new performance bras in a medium (which is what we both take in the v bra) and I tried one of them on and things were spilling out everywhere…so I would suggest sizing up in that bra if you do decide to buy it when it comes out!  And if your chesty at all, you may want to avoid it completely, it’s VERY low-cut.

There were some new bracelets there, here is a shot of a few of them

They had those wide ones for all the specialties, and there were also bracelets with bells on them so hopefully those are making a comeback!

So I hope that helps give you an idea of the new stuff that is coming out!
