| - THE STORE:
Bright and open, lots of room, nicely laid out. It feels a little bigger than the average Lulu store, and the employees are always friendly and knowledgeable. This place tends to have a pretty decent selection of clearance items, too.
THE BRAND:
In my opinion, Lululemon makes the best workout clothing, bar none.
I don't say that lightly. Over the last 8 years or so, I've tried every kind of yoga clothing, from most of the other big brands, including Lucy, Prana, Athleta, Hard Tail, Patagonia, etc., to Champion sports bras and off-brand yoga pants from Target. There is absolutely no comparison in fit, quality and comfort. I haven't had a single piece wear out yet, and I've been using their stuff for years. Their clothing does cost a little more than the other big brands (but not a ton more), but it works better and lasts longer.
The men's clothing is excellent - it's the only brand that my picky husband is happy with for yoga. It's really slim pickins out there for men's yoga gear, and he has literally tried everything, from the big brands to tiny start-ups, and nothing else comes close.
I never thought I'd be the girl in the most expensive yoga clothing, and I was heavily biased against them when my husband bought me my first Lululemon top, but it was flat out better than anything else I'd tried, and looked a lot less worn after frequent, hard wear, to boot.
The tops hold everything in through a lots of upside-down activity and twisting, and they're still flattering and open (important in the heat). The pants are amazing - flattering, comfortable, versatile, and they stay out of the way.
The clothing is definitely versatile, so even though I buy it for yoga, it also works well for my other activities, like hiking and biking, and I even have a few pairs of casual pants for weekend wear (I used to buy Lucy pants, but both brands are expensive, and the quality and look of the Lulu pants is far superior, for me, anyway).
The tops change too often for me to list names, but I swear by the Inspire Crop II pants. I know it says they're for running, but it's an incredible yoga pant - silky but not slippery, fitted, stays put, looks amazing. The Skinny Will pants and the Studio Pant are also huge favorites. Full-length pants run long, and they'll hem anything for you for free, and provide new bra cup inserts for free, too.
