Why is Athleta not cheaper than Lululemon?

[Anonymous]

I would never have guessed their activewear prices are nearly identical!

[Anonymous]

Because people think high price = more fashionable = higher quality = higher class.

I thought the same thing!

Lululemon is now equivalent to Athleta anyway. They have been dethroned and are no longer the go to for higher income women.

I think Athleta is cheaper if you shop their sales (Lululemon sales are not as much off)

+1 great sales.

Both are plastic made junk, and the microplastics can seep into your skin. I only wear organic cotton or wool workout clothes.

Athleta fits me better than Lululemon so I buy it. I like their tees and leggings (they don’t fall down when running)

Athleta fits are better but Lulu has better quality.

What I truly don’t understand is Alo. I have it down as passing fad.

Why should it be?

Lulu is not premium or aspirational anymore.

Athleta is owned by Old Navy/Gap. Old Navy and Gap have gone downhill fast. No longer highly regarded in any capacity.

Athleta quality is comparable to Lulu. They also fit me better and I like sales, so that’s what I wear.
