    I'm pretty sure I have seen leisure stuff but it's a while since I was there. Sorry - not much help. It's not something I've ever bought.

    Beanilou, my reasonably priced yoga gear (well I do Pilates but you get my drift) are from Tesco and were very reasonable. I've picked up some nice stuff in H&M too.
