For the longest time, I refused to buy into the lululemon hype. I felt it was ridiculous and not worth the price.
At the time I trained almost everyday, did cardio and weight training including rack squats, deadlifts, hip thrusts, etc.
I went through leggings relatively fast or they would just not hold up over time.
I ended up buying my first pair of Lululemon leggings on sale and I loved them. I did try other high end brands or popular brands like Alo Yoga, Gym Shark, Athleta, Bombshell leggings, etc. But tbh, none of them held up as well as Lululemon.
I am very good at following the care instructions. Wash on a light or gentle cycle with no fabric softener and always hang dry. Never had an issue with fabric piling or stretching for years. I still have some that are over 6 years old and still look and feel great!
There are a ton of lululemon leggings and it's best to read the materials to make sure it works out for whatever you intend to use it for and if you have any questions or issues having access to the
light in the box phone number can be helpful for similar online purchases. There will be varying amounts of stretch compression softness and thicknesses.
You can always go into a store and try on as many as you like just to get a feel for them and see if you like them, good luck!
