Reviews mention

  • Buttery-soft fabric leggings
  • Durable, long-wearing construction
  • Flattering, supportive fits
  • Thoughtful, functional details
  • Inconsistent, tight sizing
  • Pilling-prone align fabric
  • Occasional seam failures
  • Sometimes sheer leggings

Lululemon earns strong reviews for performance that lasts—many cite leggings, ABC pants, Scuba and Define pieces holding up for years—while buttery-soft Aligns, breathable fabrics, and precise tailoring elevate fit and comfort. Reviews also flag weaknesses: inconsistent sizing, pilling or seam issues (especially Align), occasional sheerness, and a perceived decline in quality alongside high prices and limited inclusivity.

  • got my first pair of lululemons recently and i understand why theyre so popular! they feel like butter on the skin and are so easy to slip on. extremely good quality and would recommend.

  • The fabric developments though. Few things are as reliable, versatile, and durable in the wardrobe as some Lulu pieces. Styles on the mens side can sometimes be unflattering and oddly colored especially in tops, but when you find something you really like, it's always worth the investment.

  • Having grown up on the street Lululemon was born I may be a tad biased but I love everything they make! Both design and functionality, I use their shorts as I find their tops fit too big for my liking.

  • As a taller girl, I always have a hard time finding leggings long enough, and love that lulu has the options for that! My husband is also 6’4” and finding pants is so hard for him but lulu has a 37” inseam option for their commission pants and long joggers! Lulu is expensive but the quality is great, I have leggings that I’ve used for years, used through a pregnancy and are still in perfect condition now. Worth the investment for the right pieces

    If you are tall, this is a great brand for you. they are slowly becoming more size inclusive and for everyone, which makes me happy. Also if you are a first responder, nurse or military you can get 15% off

  • I love lululemon all of us tall girls have to stick together because it is a chore to find a pair of pants that is just long enough. 6'1 on a good day I struggle to find leggings that are not only long enough but also will last long especially if I am investing $128 in a pair of leggings. I am very active and work from home so I live in leggings. I love my leggings because they are long enough and they seem to last for 2-3 years. The only downside is they are slightly see-through so I would recommend a thicker pair if you are planning on doing any squatting or running. However, light walks or yoga are perfect for you!

    Highly recommend it if you are a tall girly looking for a pair of pants that will finally be long enough and last! I do not recommend putting these through the dryer as they could shrink or get a hole with wear. They are slightly see-through so I would recommend wearing a thicker pair for high-intensity workouts! Lululemon just came out with a loyalty program, anytime you buy anything it will save it in your account so you can remember the pair of pants style you bought years ago. Highly recommend! Us tall girls got to stick together.

  • I wasn't a Lululemon fan until I bought the Align Yoga Pants as maternity leggings. They are amazing. They've stretched with me from the beginning of pregnancy to the end and retained their color and shape through SO many washings. I'm very impressed by the comfort and quality.

    Feedback

    I definitely recommend the Align Leggings for maternity wear. The other items are very high quality too.

  • I have the align leggings and personally they are just leggings with a high price tag. They have also started to pill after some time.

  • Comfy, cozy, and cute. Lululemon also has really good running clothes (leggings and sports bras)!

    Feedback

    Some of my shirts that I purchased (All yours tshirt and Back in action long sleeve) have already started to fray and have tiny holes... Perhaps higher quality stitching?

  • I honestly kind of hate to say it because of the pricing, but Lululemon just makes great clothing. Their stuff is well made and always fits in a comfortable but flattering way. I especially like that their women's shirts are often sized as 0-2-4-6-etc. instead of just S, M, L. As someone who is often between a small and a medium, this gives me more options to find the perfect fit. Everything I've purchased from Lululemon has worn really well over time. I still have my first Lululemon purchase – black leggings from about 5 years ago – and they still look and feel great. Their athleisure options are great for working from home – comfortable but with an overall elevated look.

    Offer petite sizing! At 5'3", I can generally find leggings at a good length since they come in various lengths. But for pants, it's really hit or miss. This is the number one reason I sometimes shop at Athleta instead.

  • Love their products and have purchased for 10+ years. This being said, I find the leggings have started becoming more sheer in recent years. I also found my basic leggings to pill and get holes more quickly than they used to. Great wicking properties and still my go to for hot yoga classes and athleisure in general. I find their products fit very well and if one style doesn’t fit there is another similar one that will. I also appreciate the variability in styles and sizes of sports bras.

    Feedback

    Better quality fabric for certain styles of leggings.

  • For the longest time, I wrote off lululemon's as just another activewear brand, but I finally tried on my first pair of align leggings.... I AM A BELIEVER. They are so unbelievably soft and comfy, I'm in shock. The price point is pretty expensive, so I'll probably wear this one pair forever.

    Feedback

    More sales, more discounts!

  • They're pricier than other athleisure brands, but they're totally worth it! I also like that they will tailor for free (I've only used them for hemming, so not sure if they also do other sorts of tailoring).

  • Love their leggings and tops. Quality fabric

    Feedback

    Overpriced. The sizes fit weirdly.

  • this is the best quality workout brand I have ever tried. I buy all of my clothes from here now. the leggings are amazing.

    Feedback

    pricey and sizing is confusing and inconsistent

  • Customer service in stores is not great. As a larger lady I felt very much like I was not wanted there. Quality is fantastic but price is really high for what it is

    Feedback

    More quality control with hiring.

  • The quality of their clothing is unsurpassed. And it lasts too. We’ve had similar brands in the past that didn’t last long, but Lulu has passed the test of time!

  • I love Lululemon. Do I think it could be a little less expensive, yes, but doesn’t everyone? I probably am just paying for the brand-name, but I think the quality is pretty nice too. I own a number of items from this store, and I pretty much love every single one of them.

  • It pains me to say it, but Lululemon truly does live up to the hype. Their leggings are flattering, comfy, and high quality.

    Feedback

    The price of most of their products is high. I like to score deals on the "we made too much" section of their site. It's also frustrating that washing many of their products results in a decrease in the quality. Leggings pill and threading becomes loose. For how expensive Lulu is, I'd like to be able to wash them in a machine, not by hand.

  • Lululemon without fail is my go-to for all my activities. From walking/running, HIIT, Strength training and hiking, I find their leggings work for every type of workout and are forgiving if you care for them and take your proper size. Their high neck sports bras are also a great choice for high intensity workouts and keep me feeling supported during half marathons.

    Feedback

    I found their sizing to be generally a little confusing. It could be useful to display size guides in a more transparent way online.

  • They have some great products! Their leggings in particular are worth the cost.

    Feedback

    Some of their materials suck. They stain easily, the colors fade, pill, and generally wear out super fast. I would avoid their products that are majority cotton.
