Sweaty Betty or Lululemon...

Hi there. Wondering if anyone can compare crop leggings by these two companies? O love Zero Gravity full length leggings, pretty pricey so I've bought in the sale. Have missed the sale now & need a new cropped pair. Any suggestions or should I bite the bullet & pay for the brand I know.

I also like Nike dri-fit and also vowed never to shop in LuluLemon after the fat people comments.

Loving the new print sweaty betty zero gravity leggings! If any other mums want it, you can use this link to get a £25 discount and free shipping: sweatybetty.mention-me.com/m/ol/hx5qt-tracey-stubbins. :-) best, Tracey

LuluLemon is a bit controversial. I think that working for them is quite challenging.

Oh, and then there wasn't that murder

No idea. Not bonuses.

My fave leggings/capris are the Anti Gravity ones from SB and some I bought at the Nike Shop, bonuses what they're called.

Sweaty Betty are great.

I boycott LL because I once read that the boss said something along the lines of 'our clothes aren't for fat people'.

I'm not overweight but I thought it was a horrible thing to say and decided never to buy his stuff.

I like Nike dri-fit.
Got some from fabletics but prefer my nikes.

I would love nothing better than to go to a SB store or lulu lemon.

However, the best sports/leisure wear I have bought always tends to be the cheapest!
My best running top is by mountain warehouse cost me a fiver in the sales, washes and dries lovely.

I have sweaty Betty leggings but tbh the cheap ones I bought from mountain warehouse are better!

I love lululemon leggings, can't comment on aftercare as quality of everything I get from there has been excellent.

Never tried sweaty Betty stuff

SummerKelly · 15/08/2017 15:48

I used to wear Sweaty Betty but have just discovered Bam bamboo clothing, and I think the quality is better. Never tried Lululemon, didn't the founder say some women were too "large" for their clothing?

MadisonMontgomery · 15/08/2017 15:26

I love Lululemon leggings - bit pricey but best ones I've tried. Never used them for exercise 😂 but can't see why they wouldn't be good.

OutandIntoday · 15/08/2017 15:18

I like nike dri- fit

Can't speak for SB but would say stay away from Lululemon - after sales / returns service is very very bad indeed - I only got my refund after I nagged in public on twitter for 6 weeks and they were graceless and rude about it - seemed to think 6 weeks wasn't unreasonable.

The sizing is all over the place too - no two items are the same size and it's impossible to guess what will come up big or small. Hopeless really, which is a shame because some of the stuff is OK.
