MY FAVORITE (AFFORDABLE) GYM WEAR

Even if we’re stuck in our houses to workout, we might as well FEEL good doing it!

I know for myself, if I feel good in my outfit I tend to want to workout and push myself a little harder than if I feel slouchy.

However, looking cute does NOT mean I’m constantly breaking the bank. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good pair of Lululemon Fast and Free leggings or Scuba Hoodie, but at over $100 a pop… that’s not happening all the time.

I don’t know what you’re talking about…

You’ve probably seen blogs about “best Lululemon dupes” and upon receiving them feeling extremely disappointed in the quality and durability. And, let’s not forget them NOT being squat-proof! *gasp*

Enter CRZ Yoga for the win!

I found CRZ Yoga through one of the instagram fashion bloggers. She raved about them and I knew she was a hard core Lululemon lover, so I had to give them a try! 

From the first time I pulled them out of the package I was impressed. Then, after wearing them around the gym and doing several workouts with my trusty squat-proof checker, Andrea, I was sold.

The CRZ part (see what I did there) about CRZ Yoga pants is they’re ALL under $30!! So, literally no guilt in buying a couple pairs. They’re constantly coming out with new patterns and pieces. They recently launched a dupe for my beloved Scuba Hoodie and although not *perfect*, it’s a solid match and for the fraction of the cost. 

Here are some of my favorite pieces from their collection and yes, they fit TTS:

When it comes to quality I’m usually of the mindset “you get what you pay for”, but when it comes to CRZ Yoga, you get high quality for a great price.

Some of the things that make this brand stand out is their quality stitching, fabric, and compression. CRZ Yoga fabric (a mix of elastane and Spandex) is highly comparable to the fabric used in my more expensive leggings (which is usually Lycra, a type of Spandex).  When I took them out of the package, I was instantly impressed with how well-made they were.

The compression of the Lululemon Fast and Free leggings is by far my favorite, so I was very skeptical that anything could compare. However, as I wore the CRZ Yoga High Waisted Yoga Pant with Pockets Naked Feeling Workout Leggings 25-inches I was more and more impressed with the quality and they actually stayed up better than my Fast and Free leggings! The Lululemon Wunder Under’s are a big favorite among Lululemon lovers and I believe the CRZ Yoga Naked Feeling High Waist Tight Yoga Pant Workout Pant 25” is practically identical in feel and quality, but both of these CRZ Yoga pants are a fraction of the cost.

The secret is out- you CAN get Lululemon quality and feel for a fraction of the cost!
