Alternative for the Align Super High Rise Pant
With a 4.5-star rating and over 35,300 5-star reviews, these Sunzel workout pants are considered the best dupe of Lululemon’s popular Align high-rise leggings. Available in 53 various colors and prints, these “buttery soft," sweat-wicking leggings are supportive and squat-proof, meaning no slips to worry about.
Sizing: XS - XL
Colors Available: 30+
Customer Review: “I’m a tried and true Lululemon girl, but their Align leggings aren’t the same anymore. I like these better than the aligns actually. The material is *Chefs Kiss* I would say they’re a blend of aligns and the P’tula Myra legging if you’re familiar with that brand. I usually wear a six, or medium in any legging and I ordered an M in these."

Alternative for the Scuba Oversized Half Zip Hoodie
Hoodie season is in full effect and you’ll want to snag this pullover sweatshirt. Reviewers note that it’s a good alternative to the Scuba hoodie due to the look and feel. It’s made from a polyester and spandex blend, giving it a slight stretch and the inner fluff fabric will keep you feeling warm.
Sizing: S - XXL
Colors Available: 15
Customer Review: “In my opinion, this is a great dupe for the Lululemon scuba at a fraction of the cost. I am 5’0”, 155 lbs, and wear a size large but sized up to an XL for a more loose/oversized fit. I also like that this is not a crop. The material is comfortable and feels great.”
- 3/17
Alternative for the Define Jacket
This jacket (with pockets) scores high ratings thanks to its four-way stretch, sweat-wicking, “cottony-soft” material that feels great against the skin. The design features a high neck, full-length zip closure, and thumb holes to keep your sleeves from shifting around.
Sizing: XS - XL
Colors Available: 30+
Customer Review: “The quality of this jacket is fantastic for the price. It’s super flattering and comfortable! Owning mostly Lululemon, this is on par."

Colors Available: 40+
Customer Review: “I've been draining my wallet for only Lululemon. But THESE LEGGINGS are better than Lululemon. TikTok brought me here, I was skeptical becuase like $36 for leggings no way…but I love these. Deadlift and squat proof. I got a size large because on my period I get really bloated but my usual size is a small/medium. In reference, I’d get a six at Lululemon."
- 5/17
Alternative for the Energy Bra Medium Support
Another padded and supportive option, this strappy sports bra features a wire-free design that’s best for low-impact workouts like weightlifting and yoga. The breathable fabric feels smooth and helps to wick away sweat. We also love its elastic underbust band that keeps the bra in place.
Sizing: XS - XL
Colors Available: 25+
Customer Review: “I highly recommend this Lulu dupe to everyone I know. I have had these bras for almost four years now and my oldest ones are just now starting to pill from wear and tear so this is definitely worth your money. And it's way cheaper than Lulu for the same quality!"
- 6/17
Alternative for the Belt Bag
When you want to store your items away safely while going for a run, it’s best to use a belt bag. This versatile pick can be adjusted to any length and worn across the back, on the shoulder, or around the waist. It’s lightweight, waterproof, and comes in eight neutral colors.
Colors Available: 10
Customer Review: “This belt bag is good quality and has a thick strap and sturdy zip. It is a close replica of the Lululemon version and, overall, a good buy. I recommend getting this for when you are traveling or shopping with kids and need both hands free."
- 7/17
Alternative for the Align Tank Top
How cute is this padded tank top? It’s made from 95% polyamide and 20% spandex, making it ultra stretchy, but it also has a snug fit for aded support.
Sizing: XS - XXL
Colors Available: 25
Customer Review: “This top is 10/10! A great Lulu dupe, and a very comfortable top, fit me perfectly. I am 5’3” ~110lb, size A/B cup, 23/24 waist and I ordered an XS. When I order from Lulu I size up two sizes because I don’t like my tops to fit too tight — personal preference. I like them comfortably snug around the bust (but not suffocating), and a little looser around my stomach. I usually order Lulu size six, and this XS is almost a perfect match to the fit I aim for, at a fraction of the price! I’ll be ordering more colors!"
- 8/17
Alternative for the Hotty Hot Low-Rise Lined Shorts
You can either love or hate short shorts, but we’re guessing you’ll favor this pick. These high-waisted running shorts have a ton of benefits. Tummy control? Check. Moisture-wicking fabric to keep you dry? Check. Utility pockets to store keys and cards? Check! The outer layer has a side slit design that also helps with mobility.
Sizing: S - XL
Colors Available: 20+
Customer Review: “Loved this for running and working out in general!! So comfy, cute, and love the breathability. The smallest issue with it would be that it rides up when running sometimes but even when it does, it's still comfy and doesn't feel itchy or anything. Bought this on a Prime day sale so it was a great deal for something that felt similar to Lululemon quality."
- 9/17
Alternative for the Groove High-rise Flare Pant

Colors Available: 12+
Customer Review: “This top is the perfect crop tank for working out. I’m a Lululemon snob and this butterluxe material feels EXACTLY like the Lulu top. It’s the perfect top for cardio days and it’s super comfortable. It’s not too tight or too loose, which I love. Can’t wait to get it in more colors."
- 11/17
Alternative for the Groove High-rise Flare Pant
Choose this bootcut high-waist pant for rest days or when your workout consists of light yoga or a walk. It offers tummy control, if that's something you're after, thanks to the wide waistband design.

Customer Review: “I am really impressed with these leggings! They are super soft and fit true to size. The stitching is good quality and they are not see-through. I’m 5’5” and about 210 lbs and bought an XL which fits great. I think I could size [up] if I wanted them less snug, but then the length would be a little too long as they are they just reach the floor which is perfect. Very impressed and would definitely buy more!"
- 12/17

This high-rise pick gives you a look and feel similar to Lulu's iconic leggings. It's got a four-way stretch fabric that offers light compression and chafe-free flatlock seams. “I've been loving these Madewell leggings.

Alternative for the Swiftly Tech Long Sleeve Shirt
If you’re the type of person who prefers wearing long sleeves during workouts, you need this top. It has a knitted, seamless design that won’t cause friction against the skin. It also features thumbholes and panels with a mesh insert under the arms and on the back to help wick away moisture.
Sizing: XS - XL
Colors Available: 25+
Customer Review: “Very similar to the Lulu long sleeve, 1/3 of the price. Although it’s not buttery soft, it is soft enough and comfy. I will be buying more of these!"

Alternative for the Align High-Rise Short
These breathable, buttery-soft biker shorts have received over 17,500 five-star reviews and we can see why. The fabric is super flexible and soft against the skin and it offers tummy control, thanks to the high waist style.
Sizing: XS - XL
Colors Available: 20+
Customer Review: “These are great! I ordered a medium and large to see which ones worked best for me. Both fit nicely though I ultimately went with the large for comfort. I have a 30.5” waist and a bigger bootie and thighs. These feel softer than Align/Lulu honestly. I got pink for my bachelorette party plane ride, but I will definitely be buying more in other colors! The pocket is a bit small for a Max iPhone but that’s okay. They’re a smidge thin so underwear will show creases (not color see-through), so if you wear no-shows, you’ll be good to go 😊”
