| I have the Amazon brand ones - Core10. They're fine. No issues, and they're really soft. Not shiny at all though which I kind of miss. |
|
The only lululemon bottoms I feel like I can actually work out in, go for a run in, and really grind and sweat... are the Fast and Free's. But they're so expensive. So comfortable, great sweat evaporation, but $100+ for crops.
If anyone has a recommendation where I can find a likeness with a similar fabric feel... please let a lady know. |
This is why I never got into lululemon. I'm a runner so for me it's Adidas, Nike, and Old Navy (in that order of preference). |
| OP, Align is my first pair and I’ve worn them for working out but can see they are better suited for yoga or hanging out. I didn’t like the 90 flex from amazon, gave them to my teen. Will try core 10. |
| Zella from Nordstrom. They pill slightly more (or attract fuzz?) but I find if you wear them inside out they're sleek and black and shiny like Lululemon. |
I have (and still wear) Old Navy, Target, Adidas, (Nike's make me too hot), and various things from TJ Maxx and Marshall's. They've been fine. But the Fast & Free's from Lululemon are incredible. It doesn't mean I don't run or workout in anything else, but they are so soft, quick drying, flattering, and comfortable, much above anything else. It's not a matter of "getting into" other brands - it's just a matter of having preferences, like you said. |

| Anyone try the old navy yoga leggings instead of their regular exercise leggings? |
|
Old Navy is my favorite and they're currently running a 50% off sale.
Victoria's Secret (regular brand and Pink) are also really good. I've also fallen in love with Gym Shark (a brand I saw on instagram). Their leggings are very nice but pricier than Old Navy and VS. But I love how high waisted they are and the seamless options. Seamless is critical. |
