No. 1: New Hampshire: You may see a common theme of deep V leos in my rankings, and UNH takes my top spot. The keyhole back and right amount of sparkle makes this so elegant and one of the most flattering leos I have ever seen. More Images of This Leo
No. 2: Penn State I could stare at this leo for hours and just keep noticing more and more I like about it, from the deep blue color to the Penn State written on the mesh band on the back. More Images of This Leo
No. 3: Centenary I’m a sucker for school spirit, so I absolutely love the use of the fleur-de-lis. The strappy back and mesh sleeves just make this so eye-catching. More Images of This Leo
No. 4: Georgia No surprise for another deep V. I love how simple yet dramatic this is at the same time. You can never go wrong with a black leo. More Images of This Leo
No. 5: Lindenwood The geometric diamond/triangle-like shape on the front really makes this leo stand out. The little use of gold helps make it pop and adds the perfect finishing touch. More Images of This Leo
No. 6: Maryland I was mesmerized by the sleeves of this leo the first time I saw it. I have never seen something like this before and love the use of the Maryland flag. You can just see the school pride beaming off of the leo. More Images of This Leo
No. 7: Oregon State This gives me the same vibes as the UGA one I picked. It just has everything I like in a leo and the strappy back is just icing on the cake. More Images of This Leo
No. 8: LSU I wasn’t sure if I liked how LSU was written across the chest but this one has definitely grown on me. The purple and white obviously work well together and I love how they were able to include gold as well into the strappy back. More Images of This Leo
No. 9: Utah If you told me someone was making a leo with a city skyline and mountains on it, I would call you crazy, but this works. It’s just enough without being way too much, and the black to red ombre on the body is just pretty to look at. More Images of This Leo
No. 10: Iowa Cut outs do not always work, but Iowa did a great job at making the rest of the leo simple enough to show just how pretty they can be. The little bit of white on black really makes this an elegant leo. More Images of This Leo
No. 11: BYU Paisley isn’t always my favorite design incorporated into a leo, but this is truly a pretty leotard. The white body and navy accents really make for a dainty design. More Images of This Leo
No. 12: Ohio State The color scheme of this leo is one of my favorite things about it. The explosion design on the front is bold and keeps me intrigued. Without the use of mesh I don’t think I would like this one as much as I do. More Images of This Leo
No. 13: Arkansas At first glance there is a lot going on here, but I really like the final product. I love the uniqueness of it and the Arkansas on the back helps pull it all together. More Images of This Leo
No. 14: Cortland I haven’t seen Cortland mentioned yet, but something about this leo piques my interest. I think it’s a mix between the two different shades of red and the spike-like design. Also, I love seeing Division III getting some love in the leo department. More Images of This Leo
No. 15: Nebraska The front is simple but still covers all of the bases for me. The deep V and black mesh looks very clean without being too basic. Things got interesting when I saw the back. It’s different from any other leo with an open back that I’ve seen before. More Images of This Leo
