Sweaty Betty v Lululemon

temproasted · 08/07/2020 20:45

I recently treated myself to a few Lululemon items having never shopped there before. I am quite disappointed tbh and it'll all be going back. I thought (maybe incorrectly) that they were a step above Sweaty Betty but this definitely isn't the case from the experience I've had. Would you say quality wise they are on a par with each other?
Interested in others thoughts Smile

SB Power leggings best imo. The zero gravity are thinner and better for summer

I want to get some of their shorts which went out of stock really quickly. SB form the majority of my lockdown wardrobe really.

I much prefer SB. Their power leggings are fantastic, have never bought anything other than them since getting my first pair.

I never buy LL stuff anymore.

I've been wearing various tops & bottoms from SB for about 5 years - for walking and occasional dance class.

I took a 3 year old hoodie back to the Kings Road store as the zip was broken to see if they could fix it as the local dry cleaners couldn't do it - SB couldn't get it fixed at their repairers and offered me a new one!

Very impressed. Never tried LL

The best pair of leggings I have got are from the Alice Liveing collaboration with Primark. I wish I had bought more than the two pairs I did as they are the most comfy ones I have bought, and work equally as well for Bodypump, yoga and running.

@cardoon
see here, I have bought from lululemon over the years and I think it's pretty accurate. nulu and luon pill and gather pet hair. luxtreme is very good, as are thier other more lycra based things

@AnaViaSalamanca Thanks for the insider information.
By the description though I wonder if the Luxtreme is plasticy like SB zero gravity? - would NOT like the Luon for the reasons you stated.

@Bateshotel that is a ringing endorsement Grin, you have made my decision for me!

Ifonlyiweretaller · 17/07/2020 14:34

@Bateshotel - I couldnt have put it better myself! Despite my only exercise being a leisurely bike ride, I feel like a gazelle in my SB power leggings!

Anyone have a discount code for lulu lemon they'd be happy to share? Just about to order a new yoga mat but thought I'd do a quick scout around for promo codes...

They are pretty much the same.
