We found the best Lululemon look-alike styles — all under $40

Lululemon Align Leggings are arguably the brand’s most popular product. According to TikTok user @shelby.sherwood, however, this pair of Crz Yoga leggings is a solid alternative, down to the comfy, wide waistband. In her video, she puts the workout leggings side by side to show just how similar they look. The Crz Yoga leggings appear to feature similar stitching and fit. What’s more, the budget-friendly activewear comes in nearly 30 different colors, ranges in size from XXS to XL and has two inseam length options — and you can buy three pairs for the price tag of one pair of Lululemon’s most-loved leggings. 

Even former Lululemon employees say they can’t tell the difference between these joggers and their more expensive counterparts. TikToker @arianavitale — who says she worked at Lululemon for over two-and-a-half years — compiled a viral video of the best comparables around. This pair of joggers from The Gym People is her pick for the best Align Jogger alternative at a fraction of the cost. 

They have a similar high-rise elastic waistband, tapered leg cuffs and cozy fit. Thousands of Amazon shoppers agree with her and can’t stop raving about how much they love these joggers. “I literally want to buy these in every color available. The material is such good quality! I actually prefer these over my Lululemons,” wrote one shopper.

Love Lululemon Align Shorts, but don’t want to spend $64 or more on them? Look no further than this Crz Yoga pair. These stretchy shorts are another recommendation from former Lululemon employee @arianavitale — she claims that the material and the seam alignment of the bike shorts are very similar to that of the Lululemon option. The Crz Yoga shorts come in 3-, 4-, 6-, 8- and 10-inch options and a whopping 25 different color options.

According to @arianavitale, this MathCat compression shirt is an “amazing” alternative to the Lululemon Swiftly Tech Long-Sleeve Shirt. Made from a soft, lightweight nylon-and-elastane blend material, the workout top is stretchy and its seamless design is meant to prevent chafing. Meanwhile, the thumb holes prevent the sleeves from rising up while you work out, which is particularly helpful for outdoor workouts. “Has the same material — the thumb holes ... It’s super comfortable, warm and stretchy,” raved one shopper.

Looking for a flattering tank top that rivals the Align Tank? Over 40,000 Amazon shoppers have given this tank top from the Gym People their seal of approval. The polyamide and spandex material is soft and stretchy against the skin, and also breathable and sweat-wicking to keep you dry during tough workouts. “I LOVE these tops. They are so comfortable, flattering and versatile,” wrote one reviewer. “Such a great quality for the cost ... I have these in multiple colors and will be purchasing more in the future!”

If you’re looking for a pair of athletic shorts that rival the Lululemon Track That Shorts but provide a bit more coverage in the rear, TikTok user @jesshelmerrr recommends these Bmjl running shorts. They look “so similar, it’s not even funny,” she said during a video in which she tries on both pairs — one after the other. The quick-drying shorts have a flattering high-waisted design and tulip-cut bottom that make them super-easy to move around in, according to Amazon reviewers. Best of all, they have pockets! 

This flattering sports bra is perfect for low-impact workouts. Since sports bras are typically worn underneath other clothes, it’s doubtful you want to drop a ton of money on one. Luckily, TikTok user @kelseykooima found an option that's similar to the Lululemon Flow Y bra but for way less. 

“Y’all know I love my Lululemon, but I also love to save me some money,” she wrote in the video caption. “Less than half the price and on Amazon Prime!” The Crz Yoga bra looks comparable to its Lululemon counterpart, is made from a buttery soft material and comes with removable pads.

We love the cool strappy look of this sports bra and that there are tons of colors to choose from. Much like the Lululemon Energy Bra, this strappy workout essential by Crz Yoga provides lightweight support that’s ideal for low-impact workouts. Similar to the Lululemon bra, the Crz bra is seamless, soft and breathable and has crisscrossing racerback straps that provide support while giving the bra a fun aesthetic. “These bras are perfect for working out and high-intensity workouts. IMO they are better than Lulu. True to size,” raved one shopper.

Like the Align V-Waist Leggings, the crisscross style of these Ododos leggings cinch in at the smallest part of your waist to offer tummy control, plus the extra-wide high-waist band is designed to stay put during your workouts and throughout the day. Reviewers share that these leggings are totally squat-proof (yes, even the lighter shades), and they don't pill between the thighs. One of more than 6,000 five-star fans writes: "I struggle with cellulite (who doesn't?) but damn! No cellulite showing through these pants ... $25 for these or over $100 for Lulu. I’ll choose these!"

The Lululemon Align Cami Strap Dress is versatile and so cute. But it costs $148. If you're on the hunt for something more affordable, we found the Ewedoos Women’s Tennis Dress, which looks comparable and costs a fraction of the price. It even comes in nine colors, while the Lululemon version comes in only a few. Reviewers describe the material as “buttery soft” and like the snug fit. “It holds wonderful and is tight. Highly recommend. It’s so cute! I felt very comfortable in my skin,” wrote one happy shopper. The dress comes in XS to XXL.

TikTok user @livinglucki dropped a video describing why this Husnainna skirt is her favorite Amazon purchase. “It’s just like the Lulu skirt with the pleats on the back and the quality is amazing,” she said. Even better, it’s a much lower price at just $27, compared to $78 for the Lululemon Pace Rival Mid-Rise Skirt. They both have a zipper pocket at the back to hold your phone and built-in shorts underneath. The Husnainna skort comes in nearly 20 different colors and ranges in size from 2 to 14.

If you’ve ever tried to score the Lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag, you’ve likely noticed it’s often sold out, especially in the most popular colors. But Amazon has a near-identical bag — the Ododos Mini Belt Bag — that's only $12 (compared to Lulu's $38 style).

This nylon fanny pack is a storage workhorse: It has a roomy main compartment with different sections and a secret zippered pocket at the back — plus, it comes in nearly 40 colors. It has an adjustable nylon strap attached to a nylon pouch that you can wear around your waist or comfortably across your chest as a crossbody bag. 

Over 15,000 shoppers have given it a five-star rating. One even wrote, “This was such a great underrated buy. I didn’t expect to like it this much! I’ve used this bag every day on my travel abroad. It’s big enough for a phone, wallet, passport and a couple of other necessities. It’s super comfortable and looked great with all of my outfits.
