The story
lululemon offers clothing and accessories for yoga and other activities, with separate collections worth comparing by intended use. Align leggings are one place to start when browsing yoga-focused clothing; the current 25-inch High-Rise Pant uses the brand's Nulu fabric. The Mat 5mm brings a natural-rubber-based yoga mat into the same shopping shortlist. For a practical comparison, look at a garment's rise, inseam and fabric separately from a mat's construction and carrying weight. Browse by the needs of your own practice, rather than assuming that every collection or every product with the same brand name will feel alike.
lululemon opened its first retail space inside a yoga studio in Kitsilano, Vancouver, in 1998. Its first official store opened in Vancouver in 2000, followed by its first US store in Santa Monica in 2003.

Editorial recommendation: consider Align when comparing clothing intended for yoga and low-impact movement, especially if rise and inseam options matter to your fit. Compare mats as a separate equipment decision rather than choosing one solely to match your outfit.
Check the current size guide, exact fabric composition and care label for each garment. For The Mat, review its carrying weight, full material and latex disclosures, and drying instructions. Specifications, colors, availability and return terms can change.
For any recently checked sale selections, see Brand News. A listing is not a promise of a discount; check the official store for current pricing and terms. No discount code is listed.
