I have these in a size 2 since the pocketless version runs big ( I normally would be a size 4). Lulu describes the Aligns also as buttery soft and “weightless.” These are a slightly higher rise than Aerie’s and go well above my belly button ( and stay there). Additionally, they have multiple cropped lengths and even shorts.

Lululemon: Offered in 3 lengths: 25″, 28″ ( what I have) and select colors in 31″. I included some of those styles in my shoppable round-up below. These do feel as lightweight as my Aligns.Īerie also has a version with a crossover waistband that I haven’t personally tried, but is very popular. Aerie describes the fabric as ultra-lightweight and buttery smooth and I completely agree. They are high-waisted and hit me right below my belly button. I am a bit taller (5’9″) and didn’t want them to be too short, so I ordered them in a Small Long, making them 27″. The regular length of these leggings is 25″, making them 7/8 length.

One of the things I love most about my Lululemon Aligns is that they are super high-waisted and they stay in place.Īerie OFFLINE Real Me High Waisted Leggings Review High Waisted Leggings: Fit I hate when I constantly have to pull them up because they start slipping down when I move around. My biggest bone to pick with any leggings is how well they stay up. Read my review here.) I knew my newfound Lululemon obsession was not sustainable for the amount I wear leggings, so when I heard of a dupe from Aerie, I was intrigued.īefore I get into my review, I should share what my main concern was before trying these on. ( The rest of the time, I’d go for my equally soft, but heavier weight lounge leggings from Alo Yoga. It wasn’t long before I noticed myself grabbing for these leggings the majority of the time.


Within a week, I bought them in a second color. As anyone who has tried the Lululemon Align High Waisted Leggings would tell you, these super stretchy, incredibly lightweight, and oh-so-comfortable leggings are truly a 10/10. I knew if I tried them, I would fall in love and I did not want to become dependent on such a pricey legging! But alas, I am weak and I eventually gave in. It didn’t help that my yoga studio carries Lululemon, so the $98 leggings were there to taunt me every time I would take or teach a class. As a frequent wearer of leggings, long-time yogi, and recent yoga teacher, I could only avoid the temptation of Lululemon’s buttery soft Align Leggings for so long.
