wet look leggings
Does anyone know if wet look leggings grip the pole or do they make it harder to do pole moves?
Thanks

I have some here but didn’t try yet. I was actually gonna cut the legs off to get wetlook shorts, but I can try that for you later when I practise.

I bought some, thinking it helps me stay covered up and will not affect my grip to the pole – and to be honest, they are no good. When mine arrived, they were the really smooth type though. To be honest, I don't think I would bother trying any others though. Skin seems best.

Well, it might work somehow if they're really tight. Mine aren't, and it didn't really work.
You might have some grip with them, but skin works better I guess. When you're going to do a lot of dancing and not so much climbing etc., they should work.

Thanks for trying it tacha666. I think I might buy some cheap ones off eBay n give them ago. Really appreciate ur help!

I've tried a lot of fabrics on the pole and the only thing that really sticks is PVC coated fabric, like shiny black vinyl, etc. It's hard to know whether the wet look legging will work without knowing what they're made of.

I've got a pair of vinyl pants (wearing them in some of the vids I posted on here). The brand is Black Level and I don't know if they sell leggings or not. I have tried some other wetlook stuff and latex as well, but none of them stick to the pole. Only my vinyl ones do. Seems the fabric have to be really shiny to be of the sticky kind.

Well the wetlook stuff is also a coated fabric, but it's definatly not sticky like the stuff they use for the tacky gloves or shoes (I don't know what the material is called in English, is that vinyl?)
Actually I wouldn't want anything like that as pants because it'll probably make a lot of stuff impossible, linke spins.
Plus, if you don't have any movement between the pole and the pants, you'll have the movement between pants and skin and I can imagine how this is going to end since most of the shiny stuff has dome sort of fabric on the inside.
Lina Spiralyne, latex doesn't stick? For real?? Because most latex stuff is really shiny, I didn't buy a top since i thought would get stuck with my boobs on the pole…

Tacha, I believed the same as you do before, that latex would stick.
First, latex isn't shiny unless you prepare the surface. Since I'm not at all an expert, I don't know if there are several ways to do this, but the one way I know is to put something like lubrication on, and then the surface will be a bit greasy = nothing for the pole.
Second, even in the unprepared, matt state it doesn't stick! I ordered some latex socks (not stockings actually, only like ordinary socks). First it was a little hell to get them on (which makes me wonder how people manage to get into dresses, pants, etc without tearing the material apart), but I made it. Then I tried it on the pole and realized that skin grips better. So if I'll use them it will not be for gripping purposes.
I think that if you use a latex top there will be some disturbing friction but I don't think you'll get totally stuck or so.

Get PVC or vinyl not latex. Metals degrade latex. You will end up with stains all over your latex or worse it will break.
Lina, when you put latex clothing on you either talc or lube your body first so it doesn't stick so bad. =P Then you lube or spray the outside as you mentioned. Some people use that spray on car lube stuff. Once shined up latex belongs nowhere near your pole. I once did a latex cosplay that I shined in the same room as my pole, the pole and floor were mega slippery for weeks.

Thanks tehCammy:). I was really feeling that I had missed something – which I obviously had! Lubricating the body first makes sense.
