Lululemon

Does anyone like this brand of athletic wear? My trainer suggested it to me, but it is so expensive! I was windering if it was worth it.

Re: Lululemon

My MIL got me a running middle layer shirt from there. While I can tell it's high quality, and I really like it, not sure I'd buy it on my own. I have several running shirts that I've bought at Marshall's for under $20 that keep me warm and have held up fine so far. If I had extra money laying around to spend, maybe...but most likely, not. I also have a lululemon bag that I received as a gift and LOVE.........bottom line, great quality stuff, just a bit pricey for me.

Re: Lululemon

A lot of ladies on here have recommended it. I see a few women in my yoga classes who are wearing it, but I just can't bring myself to spend over $50.00 for a top at this point.

I also would need to go to the store and try on I think before I spent that much money on something, and the ones on LI are kind of out of the way from me.

Re: Lululemon

its the only workout brand that I wear now! The products are innovative and I know this sounds crazy but knowing I can wear them gives me inspiration to work out. The items are a little pricey, but the quality is very good. I still have pieces from 2+ years ago and are in great condition!

Re: Lululemon

This week I am going to buy myself some stuff from there. The quality is amazing and washes very well.

Re: Lululemon

There stuff is made very nicely but I only have very few things from there. I only buy what's on sale or I go with my trainer who gets a discount! I love their tops but their pants fit me horible. IMO the store is a ripoff! Def more of a fashion statement

I think underarmour is real perfromance gear--keeps you warm in the winter/cool in the summer/compresses muscles etc.

Lululemon is fashionable workout clothes--I would say geared more towards yoga/pilates etc.

Check out the site!

i grew up in Canada and lululemon opened there years and years ago. I have pants from HIGH SCHOOL that I still wear to work out in. They are AMAZING quality and last forever and I personally find the yoga pants flattering on everyone!

Re: Lululemon

I am addicted to their workout clothes. They are pricey, but the quality is amazing. After numerous washings/dryings the clothes look the exact same as the day I bought them.
I highly recommend it.

I'm a lululemon lover Chat Icon

LOVE their stuff. Mostly their pants. And I just got a really yummy hoodie from there.

It is Chat Icon but worth it. I usually don't buy things on my own unless I have a GC to help me out Chat Icon

Re: Lululemon

Re: Lululemon

The sizes run weird. The smallest size they make is a 2 and not all pants or tops come in that size. Unless I am buying the exact same pant/top I already own i usually try stuff on to be sure it will fit.

AND the best thing for short people like me... free alterations.


I think lulu is doing a lot to build their product line. They did start out as a mostly yoga-related products.
The cold weather run gear is lined in fleece, the sleeves have convertible mittens, with a thumb whole, they have mesh in key areas on the tops to pull moisture away and prevent/reduce stink.

some of the zippers have a rubber pully which can be used as a hair tie in an emergency.

So many convenient pockets. whew...


I wonder if they are hiring...

I didn't even know they had cold weather gear. I have to look Into that--and you have to look Into a job with them!!

i love lulu too. Pricey, absolutely. But worth it IMO. I do bikram yoga and their stuff is now the only thing I'm comfortable in bc of the anti wicking fabric they use. You can get a decent deal on sale merchandise.

Re: Lululemon

Their clothes look nice, but I too cannot spend the $$. I buy Nike and Under Armour which holds up so well for as much as I wear and wash it! (Oh and Nike and UA can get pricey but I wait for sales or shop at the outlets!)
