I resisted Lululemon for a long time, despite many of my friends singing its praises. Growing up, I almost exclusively trained in charity shop football tops and whatever shorts I could find, and this cost-savvy option did the trick for many years.
But more recently, in my role as a fitness writer, brands have started sending me bits and pieces to try – and Lululemon is one of the brands I’ve been most consistently impressed by. Every item I’ve tested is extremely comfortable, fitting my lanky frame like a dream while also benefiting from the brand’s characteristically clean aesthetic. The problem is, as I’m sure you’re aware, Lululemon’s premium gear comes at a cost.
