Listen people I know you've heard of Lulu Lemon and I know if you don't wear the clothes the line is probably as nauseating to you as the Juicy, velour tracksuit. But unlike the said Juicy product which is capable of making any ass that isn't Mary Kate Olsen's in the height of anorexia look like a bowl of 2% cottage cheese, Lulu Lemon pants are flattering, remarkably, durable, comfortable, functional and bloody hot!
If you are a woman and into any form of exercise, Lulu Lemon is the place to acquire sportswear, if you are a guy however, the clothes haven't quite made the leap into the metrosexual category yet, so beware. -

I've been a fan of lululemon from the time I found out that their clothes not only fit me like a glove but also flatter my body and enhances my nice features.
This particular location can get pretty busy, depending on what time of the day you manage to get there.
The plus is that they have quite a large selection of stock, the downside is that they don't always have my size since i am a popular size, and the perplexing thing is that depending on the garment, I can fit into a shirt/tank/bra in size 2, 4, 6, or 8.
Their items are very expensive, but I found that their garments are very durable. You just need to wash in cold water and hang dry.
The fabrics they use are ideal for wearing for any kind of sports of physical activity. They have every type of garment for all size and body types. The only thing they do not have is plus sizes.
Their pants come in regular and long for some styles and the pants are usually long enough for any height and sleeves are adequately long, esp for people who are taller.
The staff are friendly but can sometimes be overly perky. They always ask me if i am looking for something or if I need help though i am a regular. They do not remember me eventhough i go repeatedly and spent alot of money there. There is one girl who does remember me but that's because we engaged in interesting conversations.
All in all, I love the clothes but the downside is the lot sizes for each style is small. So if you are not there when stuff first comes in, it can possibly be sold out and will not be restocked. I suppose that is the business model. Scarcity makes something more coveted or valuable.

I recommend the running pants made from polar fleece (for winter) and luxtreme (for fall). I love anything made with circle mesh and Rulu.
You an sign up for email notifications to find out when each store receives new products. You snooze you lose! If you can't find something in the store, you can check if they have it online, its free shipping in Canada. There are occasional markdowns for things they want to clear out and online under "we made too much". -

I'm reviewing the Eaton Centre location. Wow, these kids are friendly and they want to help you. Right. Away. Greeted right away! Great company ethos but I don't need to be breathed on either. I get it. It's Christmas. You've got sales targets. But if I need to know exactly how the fabric breathes, I'll let you know. All sarcasm aside, the staff are pretty passionate here. And free yoga/run classes? That's pretty cool.
I BUY
Ok. So what happened to their classic yoga pants? I've had them for a good five years and boom...all of their yoga pants are of the skinny, scrunchy variety. BOO.
I got a great backpack here as well that fits my laptop. I also wish they had less obstrusive sweatshirts without the massive logo all over the front. As you've proved when you started, less is more. Go back to your basics.
OBLIGATORY CATCHY REMARK
You're going to lu lu lose my business if you don't carry what I (and many others) have relied on in past. Change is good but stick to what has made you successful. -

This store was cute! I really liked the layout of the store and the staff was quite friendly. I was the only one in the store on Monday afternoon, which was nice.
Unfortunately, they didn't have the jacket I wanted in my size. -

Have you ever experienced great customer service? Like incredible customer service- the kind that makes you feel so good about being at the store that you'll buy ANYTHING from your sales associate even if it doesn't fit right? I felt that today at Lululemon. I walked into the store and was looking at a jacket I really wanted that didn't come in my size, and the sales associate there was so friendly and so nice, and such a sweetheart. He shared my sadness about the jacket that was too large, and showed me all these other jackets that DID come in my size, and even though I didn't buy anything, he wasn't angry about helping me, but told me that there were lots of other fall jackets coming in, and that I should sign up for the newsletter, which I did afterwards because he was so wonderful to me. But you know what the best part about this Customer Service experience was? I tweeted @lululemon after I left the store, and the person on the other end tweeted right back saying that they would let the Design Team know my thoughts! Now, whether or not the person at the other end of the computer will actually let the Design Team know is another issue, but the fact is that they tweeted back and acknowledged my request. There is a reason why this store has become such a success in the last couple years. It's not their clothes, or their style, it's the way their clothes and their people make you feel- like you're part of their team and not just someone who shops there.

I remember the first time I heard about Lulu Lemon, I was still a
theatre student and one of my friends came up to me and said that he was
wearing the most comfortable pants in the world. Now he and I were cut
from the same cloth and were men who preferred comfort to all else and
so I was intrigued. The pants looked ok on him but he insisted that his
lower half was in heaven. I thought that I might pick up a pair and so
I inquired where he bought these leg covers and for how much. He named
some silly store and then he told me that he had paid $120 for them. I
looked at him and saw him differently; I thought that we were alike, but
clearly anyone who pays $100+ for a pair of yoga pants is off their
rocker. I can't say that I've come completely over to the dark side but
I can see where he was coming from. Pants or pretty much anything else
in this store is an investment in yourself. When you buy these pants
you are saying that I have decided that pants that otherwise would be
relegated to the living room are now fair game for walking around in
public. It is a choice, a comfortable choice but one that should not be
taken lightly. For women the choice isn't quite so hard because there
is no pant that will make your back side look better, but for men it's
one step away from sweat pants in public (expensive sweat pants, but
sweat pants nonetheless) and so it's a big choice. I do recommend
this store in spite of the price because the pants really are that
comfortable and if your ok with spending $100+ on a pair of pants than
this is a good place to do it.
