Not to get into the discussion if Lululemon is worth it or not, but if you're looking for very similar quality, fit and designs, check out VRST by Dick's. It's an unbelievable value brand, and I say that as someone who owns Lululemon and other more expensive brands like Tracksmith and Bandit.

I've bought VRST running shorts, socks, jackets, shirts and pants that cost less than $7 on sale, and I am beyond thrilled with them.

I agree. I have 2 pairs of vrst taper pants and they're almost as good as my lulu. That said, for a 1/4 of the price, it is very worthy and good quality

I agree also. To me the comparison isn't Lulu to 32 degrees or cheap ones from Costco or Sam's (although some are decent), but there's a whole world of ones in between that are high quality and good fit - such as Nike (I have an old element 1/4 zip that is my favorite), Under Armour, the outdoor brands (REI, MH, TNF) or VRST, etc.

Also, I don't doubt the discount places (Marshall's, TJ Maxx, Sierra) have special clothes made for them but I know you can get top tier real stuff there also. I just recently bought some UA Meridian tees (speaking of Lulu competition, these are top tier under amour shirts) from Marshall's (check online) for $16 that I've never seen below $45 at UA website.

Anyone saying Lulu quality is on par with something you'd get at Costco just hasn't worn anything from Lulu.

It's completely fine to personally not value the added cost, but don't lead people astray by talking about things you don't know.

Lulu's stuff is better materials (just because it's synthetic doesn't mean there aren't vast differences in the qualities between synthetic materials), better cut and better design.

Plus it's ridiculous to make the claim that people are buying for the logo considering how understated the logo is to the point where you would not notice it unless you're looking at it. This isn't some ridiculous Louis Vuitton bag or something.

Completely agree and I used to be that person. My wife has worn it for a while and always said how comfortable it was and I was like yeah ok but then one day she came home with a shirt and some shorts for me and I have been a believer ever since.

The quality is amazing and their customer service is even better they stand by their product for quite a while if a defect happens my wife had a pair of leggings that was having some stitching issues that was over a year old they exchanged no questions asked. For that alone they earned more support from me.

Exactly. I was skeptical too, but I didn't go on web forums spreading BS I knew nothing about. Once I tried a few things on it was glaringly obvious that it's a higher tier quality. I own like eight things from them, and the stuff I bought a few years ago has held up to the point where it still feels brand new. I do a lot of long runs and the avoidance of chaffing between my lulu shorts and the Brooks/Nike stuff I owned before is night and day.

Costco stuff is great too! I own a few things from there. But they're just not on the same level.

Lol this like the biggest kept secret. I buy lulu and Vuori but always go back to VRST for their shirts and shorts. Great deals too. The only drawback not carried in all Dicks stores

Do you have actual experience before you speak? Im not questioning your input but no one should talking about stuff they got no experience in. Imagine if we all google brain surgery and start spitting out knowledge like we are actually neuro surgeon

I speak from experience as a chemical engineer and also from what I've seen from journalist investigations about these big brands. It costs $35 for Gucci to make a handbag just to sell it for $3000. I'd pay for Lamborghini if I had the money because I know it's worth that amount, but I wouldn't buy a Lululemon for 60bucks, and that's worth 60 cents. You want to empty your bank account for cheap material made name brand, be my guest, I'm here to inform not to impose. Peace.

It's made of 100% petroleum based materials, which are super cheap to produce, and it's manufactured in a 3rd world country, and it's on sale for $64. At this point, you're buying a brand. Super hard pass. You can get much better quality and way cheaper at Costco or Marshalls.

Yeah your just buy a brand so you can impress people .... lame

It's been this price since BF. I picked up a couple and love them. Very similar to the license2train or whatever that line is called. A little more casual but I still wear them to work under vests or on fridays. The fit is excellent

Was told their year end sale starts on the 26th, waiting until then to snag some more gear. Did the same last year, got a couple pairs of pants.

The year end sale at that time were better than Black Friday, bought some pants & wound up exchanging them to get the lower price.

More hype than product tbh. I was disappointed about the quality after 6 months.
