| - Attraction: free weekly yoga classes, cool atheletic wear!
It's embarassing for me to say... I'm a closet lululemon junkie.
I used to laugh at the Stepford-wife-esque women padding around in their lululemon attire with their blinged out cellphones. Then, I tried on some of their yoga/athletic clothes and realized that these women were on to something.
Although I don't do yoga (so I feel like a bit of a poser in the store), the clothes are amazingly comfortable and durable. I've purchased a coat, two tops, and some shorts and they have lasted a long time.
Breathable, lightweight, fashionable, functional, well-designed. These are the keywords here. A lot of their clothes don't even look like they're athletic wear which makes it very versatile. Years after I purchased my coat, people still ask me where I got it from (if they're not Canadian).
For those who do yoga, each lululemon store has a scheduled weekly yoga studio (did I mention that it's free?) in their store. They make a point to use pictures using local athletes as their models. So despite the fact that it's a chain store, it still retains a local feeling to it.
Is it overpriced? Yes and no. They often have sales so their items are more reasonable but it is still rather expensive at full price. The quality is great so it really lasts a long time.
I have to say, their Canadian stores seem to have a better selection and more discounted items. However, I'm just pleased that they have an outlet here in Las Vegas for people to check out.
