The best Lululemon alternatives you can buy on Amazon for winter, starting from £11

RRP: £31 | These leggings are strong competition for Lululemon's most sought-after product, the Align Legging. The Align makes our pick of the best workout leggings thanks to its flattering cut and feel, which are hard to replicate. However, CRZ Yoga has to be commended for this impressive product. The leggings are almost identical to the Align range, down to reproducing a circular logo on the back and having multiple choices for leg length (25 and 28 inches).

The leggings have rave reviews from thousands of customers - many say they are extremely soft and comfortable, while also being opaque and supportive enough in the material for weight training, yoga, Pilates, and other low-impact exercises.

Where these leggings top the Lululemon Align range is in the colourway choices as CRZ Yoga's Butterluxe leggings have over 40 colourways available - from 'Black Tie-Dye' and 'Noctilucence Red' to 'Velvet Dust' and 'Wild Indigo'. There's an option for everyone.

What the reviews say: "I was convinced the CRZ Yoga Butterluxe leggings wouldn't come close to the comfort and support of my beloved Lulus - but I was wrong. I cannot underestimate how incredible these leggings are. The material is buttery soft and feels luxurious against my skin, the fit (which is true to size) is perfect, with enough stretch to move comfortably while providing support to make me feel held in. They also create a lovely silhouette on my legs," says Managing Editor Kerrie Hughes.

RRP: £23 | If you love the Lululemon Wunder Train workout leggings but want to pay a fraction of the price (and you've missed the latest Lululmon discounts online) then the Queenieke Workout Leggings are a great alternative.

Much like the Wunder Train, these leggings have a discreet pocket in the waistband designed to hold your smaller essentials, a drawstring in the waistband for a customised fit, and they are designed for medium-impact workouts like strength training.

The material has a soft feel, made from an elastane and polyester mix, and you can even buy fleece-lined varieties for staying warm outdoors.

What the reviews say: "I LOVE these leggings, finally a pair that do not move!! The high waist is great and compression is still so comfortable and supportive. I do a lot of HIIT and I do not need to adjust myself once." - Liv

RRP: £19.99 | Leovqn High Waist Gym Leggings are a great alternative to the Fast and Free High-Rise Tight from Lululemon if you're looking for leggings for running, cycling, hiking, and other intense cardio activities. They have a pocket on one side and the polyester and elastane combination in the material makes them sweat-wicking and relatively quick-drying.

The original Lululemon Fast and Free High-Rise Tight is one of the best gym leggings with pockets, says W&H Digital Health Editor Grace Walsh. "They feel super seamless on the body, so much so you forget you're wearing them. The side pockets on the Fast and Free leggings are useful for carrying essentials like your phone, without worrying about them jiggling around on the move. The reflective leg details are a nice touch for workouts outdoors." But they come with a £70+ price tag at minimum, so if you're looking for another, more budget-friendly option, we recommend the Leovqn High Waist Gym Leggings as one of the better Lululemon alternatives.

These leggings have the same pocket structure for storing valuables and a pocket in the waistband for smaller essentials. Reflective detailing on the lower leg helps you stand out on darker evenings. While the colour and leg length range isn't as exciting as other Lululemon alternatives, this pair stand up well against the original.

What reviewers say: "A second pair of leggings by this supplier and I am very pleased with this product. Pockets are so handy. The material is stretchy and comfortable, the fitting of this product is really good. Very hard-wearing leggings, as I wear mine every day, so would recommend." - Charlie

RRP: £28.99 | Lululemon has been thriving in recent years with their athleisure collection, with comfortable and sleek options that look just as at home in the yoga studio as they do at brunch. The Scuba Mid-Rise Wide-Leg Pant from Lululemon is our favourite of the bunch - and we've found the perfect alternative on Amazon. The Promover Women's Activewear Trousers are made from a cosy material with a high waist for a flattering, compressive, and supportive fit, and bootleg cut.

These leggings come in a variety of colourways (from 'Black' to 'Brown Sugar' and 'Heather Grey') like many of the other Lululemon alternatives on the list and the Lulu original and there are several leg lengths to choose from, including 'petite' size options.

What the reviews say: "Really soft material and they don't dig in at all, but are still flattering. Really stretchy. Length is just ok (if you're taller than me [5ft6], definitely go for the longer ones)." - Sam

RRP: £24.99 | Summer is on its way out the door for another year but these Lululemon alternatives to the Hotty Hot High Rise Shorts (which feature in our selection of the best running shorts for women) are worth having in your rotation all year round.

While Gym People's Speed Up Short lacks the premium materials of the Lululemon original, these shorts deliver a similar breathable and stylish design. They are also almost half the price of Lulu's £48 tag. At 4.9 inches in leg length, they are perfect for running, walking, and other cardio exercises where you need the full freedom of movement in your legs.

Amazon reviews do, however, warn of the built-in mesh underwear and the inconsistency in the length of the shorts. So if you’re taller than average, it may be best to stick with the original Speed Up shorts. There are also only a few colours to choose from.

What the reviews say: "They’re super comfortable and I love the denim-look colour - very pretty! I'll probably purchase a pair in black as they’re easily becoming my new favourite shorts! I LOVE my Lululemon shorts and these give them a run for their money - we’ll see how they hold up over several washes.” - Anna

RRP: £19.99 | You might have noticed that Lululemon has extended their activewear range into more daily and casual wear. The Lululemon Pleat-Front High-Rise Trouser is one such piece, designed to create a classic office look with the brand's premium materials and fit.

While we wouldn't typically go to Amazon to buy women's trouser suits, it does have options - like the Beigai Women's Trousers. These are made from a majority of polyester materials with 5% Spandex, so they are soft and lightweight. Though the material isn't stretchy, they have an elasticated feel for a comfortable feel.

What the reviews say: "Really cute high-waisted trousers that are super light and airy. Very comfortable fit with a stretchy top for a nice snug fit. Great quality and washes really well." - Eunice

Some reviewers suggest these fit a little oversized, so you're best to size down if you're between sizes, but check Amazon's guide for details.

RRP: £19 | Starting strong with this stylish low-impact sports bra from CRZ YOGA - a popular Amazon-exclusive brand known for its high quality and high-performing workout lookalikes. The design is also a Lululemon favourite - see the Lululemon Like A Cloud Longline Bra or Lululemon Energy Bra in Medium Support for the original - and scores high with an average of 4.3 stars on the Amazon website.

Reviewers rate the support of this bra and the fun multi-strap feature on the back - but if you're looking for a high-impact sports bra, it probably won't offer the support you need. Instead opt for one of the best sports bras for larger chests or the best high-impact sports bras, which include original options from Lululemon.

The outer layer and inner lining are predominantly polyamide, so this bra is ideal for sweaty gym sessions. Polyamide is known for its breathability and porousness, keeping you cooler and dryer during workouts.

What the reviews say: “I'm never spending £58 on a Lululemon sports bra ever again. The quality is just as good, maybe even better than all my Lululemon bras. Extremely comfortable and has a soft lining.” - Krista

RRP: £10.99 | The Energy High-Impact Sports Bra from Lululemon is one of the best sports bras and the go-to for many people when it comes to finding support for running, walking, hiking, and other high-energy, jumping-adjacent workouts. The Leversic Women's Workout Bra is the closest to the original, with the flattering criss-cross-style back support, colour range, and size options. However, we appreciate it's not an exact match as the retailer promotes the bra as a mid-impact option for running, which would suggest it doesn't offer quite as much support. Design-wise though, you'll struggle to find one more similar.

Made from nylon and elastane mixture, the bra offers breathability and versatility with stretch during workouts. However as the nylon content is very high, it's worth wearing a light layer on top. Otherwise, you may get too warm.

At £23 for a pack of three, it's also a significantly cheaper option than going for the Lululemon original, making it a budget-friendly way to score a similar design. However, some reviewers warn that the bra may not be suitable for those with larger chests to run in the bra.

What the reviews say: "These bras are a great fit and very comfortable, they offer reasonable support for the price. Great for general workouts but probably not enough support for runners. Good value for money." - Nicki

RRP: £27 | This sleek, minimalist black sports bra looks very similar to the Lululemon Flow Y bra. Very stretchy and with gentle compression, it's the perfect bra for daily yoga or full-body Pilates workout - or for wearing when lounging at home. Labelled as 'softer than a cloud' by the brand, you can expect unmatched comfort.

Available in 32 equally-stylish colours, there is an appropriate hue for any outfit. You can also remove the bra pads to change the style to suit the type of fit you're after. This style has over 2,700 five-star reviews, so you can be confident it's worth the purchase. However, buyers note that it does run slightly large. It's wise to size down when wearing the bra for exercise, but if you want this to lounge in, your usual size should work.

What the reviews say: “This bra fits perfectly!! I feel stylish and it’s comfortable. It’s flattering. Basically … do yourself a favour and order one.” - Laura

RRP: £24 | With an average score of 4.4 stars from over 40,000 reviews on Amazon, this vest is a staple in thousands of wardrobes. Its longline design and use of thick supportive material are almost identical to the Align Tank by Lululemon. This design sits perfectly with high-waisted leggings or shorts, adding to the piece's versatility and wearability. The tank can be bought not only as a workout piece but also as an everyday wear item. Some customers have even said they’ve worn theirs out for drinks! Pair the top with leggings or trousers for day-to-night wear.

The Gym People Longline Yoga Tanktop comes in a spectrum of colours and has a built-in sports bra, which is either a perk or a disadvantage depending on what you want from your gym tanks. The polyamide elastane blend offers support and stretch as needed when you're on the go. Customers commend the piece on its comfort and support when working out. It is worth noting, however, that if you have a larger cup size you may want to size up as some reviews say the tank can be smaller than expected around the chest area - but others say it fits true to size.

What the reviews say: “I absolutely love the colour and how buttery-soft it is. Some people even mistake it for the Lululemon tank top.” - Sarah

RRP: from £29 | A simple workout top is a must-have in any workout wardrobe. Lululemon is famous for its selection of super simple, high-quality, buttery-soft workout tops - and this set from Amazon is a great alternative.

The IECCP Women's Seamless Workout Shirts come in a pack of two and have a seamless construction to help reduce chafing during all types of workouts. They are made from 85% polyester, a lightweight and breathable fabric, and 15% spandex, offering an extra stretch. The real thing from Lululemon is made from 44% Recycled Polyester and 50% Nylon, so its of higher quality, but you can't go too wrong with these either.

The crew neck makes them suitable for indoor and outdoor exercise, and the hip-length design makes them the perfect choice to wear with leggings or casual trousers. You can also buy these tops in several different colours.

What the reviews say: "It is a lovely and comfortable shirt and I especially love the seamless feature. The fact that the material used is dense and not see-through is another big plus with this item. Besides the really snug fit, I have no complaints and it really is a lovely item, perfect for the gym or casual wear out and about." - Miruna

RRP: £20 | A arguably simple but necessary athleisure staple to own. This crop tee is a perfect alternative for the All Yours cropped t-shirt by Lululemon and has hundreds of positive reviews from customers on Amazon. CRZ Yoga is once again proving to be the place for Lululemon lookalikes. The T-shirt has a similar material and comes in a wide range of colours with a camo print option also available.

The most obvious difference between the two is the quality of the cotton. Lululemon uses high-quality Pima cotton. In contrast, CRZ Yoga's lookalike is a mix of regular cotton and Elastane. This is where customers would feel the lack of that renowned Lululemon buttery-soft fabric. Some customers have said that the material can be a little see-through. However, over a sports bra, this tee holds up!

What the reviews say: “The fit is very true to size. It feels almost identical to the Lululemon crop tee!” - Liz

RRP: from £37 | Perhaps one of Lululemon’s trendiest pieces, there was a time when everyone wanted what was being referred to as ‘The BBL jacket’ - aka. The Define Jacket. Known for its impressive shaping and slimming cut, the original design was soon (almost) overshadowed by various similar products that swarmed the market.

Thanks to its nylon and LYCRA makeup, this jacket offers the perfect balance of stretch and support. Whether you're busy working out or running errands, this non-restrictive fabric holds you in just the right places.

Still a hugely sought-after design, this Lululemon alternative from Gym Rainbow is a fan favourite on the site with an average rating of 4.6 stars. It's a perfect outerwear piece for feeling and looking good on your morning runs or evening strolls.

What the reviews say: "Of course, I wanted the Lululemon version of this jacket but I can’t see myself spending over $100 on just one jacket! But it has a similar look and feel. It’s lightweight enough to work out in and very slimming. Also, it fits true to size." - Ariel

RRP: from £37.99 | A stylish alternative to the Lululemon track jacket, this lightweight windbreaker-style top provides an extra layer of protection that won't cause you to overheat. There are plenty of colours to choose from - at least 10, from neutral beige to bold peach.

This is one of the more expensive Lululemon alternatives on Amazon, but with hundreds of rave reviews commenting on the quality of this zip-up, it's not hard to justify the cost. Plus, it's still roughly £80 cheaper than the Lulu original. With handy pockets and a cropped, boxy fit, it is flattering and comfortable for all activities.

What the reviews say: “It felt like I was opening a Lulu item when it came out of the package. It felt equally similar when trying it on.” - Ryan

RRP: £24 | We had to get an accessory in. This is similar to the Lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag and it has an impressive 4.5-star rating and is available in various colours. It’s got multiple pockets, both on the inside and outside of the bag so it’s perfect for hikes, long walks or even a trip out to the shops! It's made similarly to the brand original with a 100% nylon body - the only difference is that the Everywhere bag uses recycled materials and has a polyester mesh and liner.

Some customers dislike the wide, chunky strap. Others say it’s sturdy and durable. The only true fault to look out for is the zip, with a few customers saying it can get a little stuck.

What the reviews say: “Overall great bag! Very similar to the Lululemon Belt Bag for [almost] half the cost! Only small things that are really no big deal that I’m not the biggest fan of. The zipper is a little sharp and could irritate someone’s arm if they wear it as a crossbody. ” - Heather
