lululemon athletica

do not call this store! this store is closed, and verizon gave our house the old phone number. if you call this lulu lemon, you will be calling my house, and i am maybe not going to pick up.

I don’t want to be a luluhead, but I am. Their pants are seriously out of this world. So far I’ve stuck with the wunder unders, astro wunder unders, and a pair of black chevron designed crops. All of the pants are flattering and wash well. I have noticed that the triangle gusset, while present on all the pants, is a little inconsistent. The subtle chevron pants aren’t as flattering in the down-​under region as some of my other crops. But still wearable and very fashionably minimalist.
How does that logo seem so subtle yet so flashy? I swear, you can spot it from a mile away.
The store has a well organized selection of quality athletic wear and helpful staff.

Love Lululemon and its nice that there’s a store in Brooklyn. It has limited hours with only Thurs — Sun 12 — 6. The girls that work there are super sweet and helpful. Their selection isn’t as extensive as some of the larger showrooms in the city, but you can still find what you’re looking for.

I’m from Vancouver, so when I go into a lulu store I want to feel like I’m home.
It’s a show room, so obviously it won’t have the beautiful wood and rock accents that are reminiscent of Beautiful British Columbia, but the girls that work here are the friendliest ever. They aren’t stuck up like some lulu girls can be, and are always glad to help you out! A lot of them lead the community events they have as well (this is one of the reasons i LOVE lululemon– their dedication to the community is fantastic. Make sure you get on their email list, like them on facebook, or check the lulu site to see what FREE events they have going on
)
The men’s selection is VERY limited, but they’ve got a decent selection for women’s– especially in the new styles. Again, this is a showroom, so it’s 5 stars because as a Showroom it’s the best I’ve ever been to.
Also: great seating area for your posse to sit at while you try on their amazing stuff.

A smaller showroom than many of the Manhattan locations, but well organized and well stocked nonetheless. Excellent customer service; friendly and genuinely helpful. I also appreciate Lululemon’s commitment to supporting and promoting local studios and instructors. For a national brand, they are very neighborly.
Wish they’d markdown items more frequently, but I have found that Lululemon is well worth the expense (especially for running clothes). In fact, their prices for running clothes are pretty comparable to other «elite» running brands. What really sets Lululemon apart from the crowd though is their attention to detail. Fabric composition varies according to activity or purpose, logos are reflective, zippers are shielded, seams are flat, sleeves are kept in place with thumbholes, zipper pockets for essentials. Everything is functional as well as flattering.

Overall I had a good experience here. Popped in for a yoga mat towel and two sport bras. Items can be a bit pricey here, so I was lucky to find some sale items to keep the cost down. The staff is super helpful and knowledgeable but, I felt like they pushed the higher end items a bit. They sponsor in store events and some around the city as well.
Oh and they have a teeny men’s section.

Yes, they do offer awesome free community events and top-​of-​the-​line fitness and yoga apparel but I’d say what stands out most about the Brooklyn Showroom is their customer service. Whitney and the gang are incredibly friendly and helpful. They take the time to get to know every person who walks in the door and they care about your feedback. It’s definitely been a great addition to the neighborhood. Keep up the good work!

Like others, I tried one of the free yoga classes this month. We had a teacher from Lucky Lotus, which has gotten a lot of positive reviews on here. I loved the class — it was Vinyasa style, and definitely for intermediate level yogis. The shelves and displays were all pushed to the back, leaving enough room for 8 — 10 yogis to practice! The teacher was great, though I found some of his music (it was pop) to be a little distracting. The store lets you use its extremely high quality mats! Plus, there is no pressure to purchase their products! It was such a nice environment to practice yoga in! I was always a little weary of Lululemon because they seem so trendy, and nearly every yogi I see seems to be decked out in their gear, but the store is really great. Yay for free yoga!

Today I tried one of the free yoga classes that they offer every Saturday at 10. I felt extremely welcome at Lululemon and I thoroughly enjoyed the class. They made room for everyone and attracted a diverse group for the class. I like that they didn’t add any pressure to buy the lululemon products… it actually makes me want to buy their cool yoga clothes more… haha! I also like that they try to cater to the needs of the community. Due to all the Fall races happening in the area and the NY marathon coming up they have a series of yoga classes for athletes. I will definitely be back to take advantage of the free yoga classes they offer and to learn about different studios in the area!

Tina B. basically read my mind and wrote my review for me (thanks Tina!). Lululemon is what it is, but this store’s role is apparently all about community outreach, which is cool. This means that they are only open for business a few days a week (during the rest of the week the staff is pounding the pavement in yogic fashion). Their gear is still too expensive for me, but their Saturday class beckons and the sales associate was incredibly nice.

I was pretty surprised to walk through my neighborhood and see a newly opened Lululemon. The store is small, but I don’t mind. I’m sure they’ll add more product as the store develops. Plus, like all Lululemons, they’ll be offering a free yoga class (Sat @ 10am) and already have a lot of flyers for local studios and teachers. Since I’m still in search of the perfect class, this store will be a great resource. The sales associate was friendly, welcoming and inquisitive. I’ll be happy to return soon and spend some money on a few staples.
