I just bought the down for it all men’s jacket in Size M yesterday for myself and i did try on the women’s one but it really was tight around my stomach area and chest and I like a loose fit to put a shirt on underneath but I can’t help but like feel like I just don’t look like the models wearing the women’s down for it all jacket and so I went for the men’s and It’s comfier, has a double zipper! I started looking at the men’s clothes and some of the stuff looks comfier so does anyone else by stuff from the men’s? Like I hate a tight fitting shirt around my chest / armpits (love a loose baggy tee) but all the women’s ones seem to be tighter (minus all yours tee, I know that).

I started shopping men's about a year ago. The arms of the short sleeve tees are longer and fit better. Things are longer and more forgiving when I just want to move freely. I love the women's lines but I don't always want clingy, skin tight, cropped clothes. I've got drysense and metal vent tees and hoodies for running. The surge half zips are awesome for colder weather run and less form fitting than it's rulu run tops. City sweat hoodies are more roomy and cozy. I stopped shopping the website by filtering women's and men's and now shop by color, fabric, and sport. Even the men's blazer fits me better. I wear a 10 or 12 in women's and mostly medium sometimes large in men's.

As a tall person with a long torso, men's shirts have been my go to for ages! Especially with the Team Canada line. I find the love shirts are too short on my torso, and the sleeves aren't that long. The men's line is a better fit length wise, and it's a little looser, so it's more comfortable to wear. Men's shorts are hit or miss for me.

I wear a men's down puffer as well. The women's one barely hit my hips in the regular fit, but the men's one covers my butt and the sleeves are long enough for me to cover my hands without gloves.

I buy men's coats/jackets regularly, since a lot of stores don't carry tall women's sizes. I'm average height for a male where I am, so the most I have to size for is my hips. Shirts/stretchy pants I'm a medium, but for coats I'm usually a large.

42 F. Wear the men's pace breaker 5 in shorts. I love how gender neutral looking they are! Plus I don't like how croped all the ladies tops are.

one of my favourite pairs of lulu joggers are the men’s City Sweats, they just seem to fit better than some of the women’s more form fitting joggers (I’m thinking of ready to rulu). not super baggy but not skin tight :)

I can’t wear any of the scubas because the sleeves are too short. I keep meaning to try mens but haven’t loved any of the colors yet.

Long torso 5’9 athletic / slim lady here. With the recent trend of young young children (I saw a 9 year old - talking about 4th grade having her mom help her with buying 2’s in align leggings), I just hate the fit of the women’s clothing these days.

A coworker told me that her 75 lb child wanted only Lulu for her birthday. 😡

I’ve moved over to the men’s section for jackets, joggers, and now contemplating shorts.

I don’t like color (neutrals girlie or jewel tones only) so I love the men’s section. Men’s S generally works for me - size women’s 6 - 8 for loose fitting bottoms - former 4 in tops but they’re too short now due to the cropping and catering to actual children.

Anyone able to give me deets on the fit of various men’s shorts? Small waist thicker hip /booty so unclear how it will work for me

I'm sized out on a lot of women's items unfortunately so it has crossed my mind...like a vest for example. I would love to own a LLL vest and I'm not a fan of the seasonal colors that came out in women's size 20 (lilac and light aqua). I'm not sure how men's sizes would work with my wide hips though (48.5") so that's the only reason I haven't tried anything yet. That and, I don't have a store nearby to try, so I'd have to order/return which I hate doing.

I did order a men's size XL vest in another brand, because they didn't have a plus size option in women's styles and it does fit albeit, it does become a little tighter than I'd like at the hips when zipped.

Curious to hear what others have to say and their experiences in wearing mens LL!

I do!! 🙋🏻‍♀️ whenever I want non cropped regular length and non tight/slim fitting 😂

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Ya sometimes I wanna layer and I think the mens coat allows me to do that better. And like I don’t want my boobs sticking out lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Oh yes. I also appreciate the simplicity of S/M/L sizing

I am shameless in my love for oversized clothes though. Tight bottoms don’t bother me but if a shirt is pulling anywhere I lose my shit.

Funny. I'm going the other way. Have recently bought the ready to rulu jogger and dance studio pant. So comfy

Omg yes when I was looking online and only saw that sizing I was like woah this is so much easier. And I’m the SAME WAY . Like I’ll wear tight shorts, loose shorts, tight pants, loose pants but if I can feel the shirt pull around my chest I’m out LOL

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The men’s stuff is all longer too. Everything is so cropped in the women’s section..

I can't make men's stuff work. Tops end up too tight around my butt, and arms are too long. Pants have way too much excess space in the crotch. I guess it really depends on your individual body shape. I'm 5'2 and pear shaped, so it makes sense that things wouldn't fit me well.

Yessss for joggers and sweats especially! I’m 5’10” and all legs. Literally the only ones that don’t look like floods. Also lounge sweatshirts are way cozier.

I can only buy the men’s shorts! I find all of the ladies shorts to be unflattering on me, in my opinion. The Pace Breaker 5” are my absolute favourites!

I super wish I could! The guys get way better shorts options! They have been sold out forever of 8" inseam shorts for women in Canada with pockets and 6" are chafe city for this swole sister.
