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

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 :)

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 shop the men’s pants for work pants and get so many compliments on them. People are shocked to find out they are men’s but the fit is more work appropriate.

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!

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

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.

Yes, Steady States for the oversized cozy look. They are softer than scubas.

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.

100% i just did this for the rain jacket. The level of form fitting for the coats don't make a lot of sense to me, I like to layer under my coats. Even sizing up with the women's sizing looks weird I think... because it's supposed to be form fitting, then they just look too big!

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.
