Lululemon is known for its high-quality leggings, but how does its new range of hiking gear compare?
features multiple styles of shorts, a pair of full-length tights and cargo trousers, a hike-to-swim bra for dipping into lakes, as well as shirts, skirts, T-shirts and accessories. to see if they could finally solve my walking outfit crisis.Given fashion’s recent rediscovery of 00s cargo pants, the loose and well-pocketed style is very on trend. That’s great news for walking, as you can’t go wrong with a pair of shorts that both look great and are extremely practical.
But Lululemon’s cargo style shorts have managed to find the perfect middle ground. The legs are super wide, meaning there’s a lot of room for breeze but the longline design and super high waist means I feel well-covered .Castore activewear review: can the British brand known for its menswear cater for women?
The fabric is soft, too, with special anti-abrasion technology to limit chafe and irritation as you walk. The waistband is made with a softer material, dubbed Luxtreme™, so it sits softly on your stomach and doesn’t dig in .I may not have had the opportunity to go out into the countryside for an eight-hour hike just yet, but these shorts have seen me through weekend walks around leafy East London without complaint.
They’ve wicked sweat to avoid crotch stains in 30°C heat, as well as keeping me comfortable when deep in greenery and confident enough to stroll on the roadside. They don’t slip down thanks to the sturdy drawstring waist, even when the pockets are weighed down with my keys, hairbands and an emergency snack.I can see these being a really great, non-chafing, breezy short to wear for even more intense hikes too, and I wish I’d had them for the Strong Women Treks.
It’s disappointing that these only go up to a UK size 16 when so many of Lululemon’s other items are size inclusive .It’s safe to say I’m a fan of these shorts. Lululemon has nailed the practical but stylish and breezy but sturdy design that keeps me returning to them during ridiculously hot summer walks. I know I’ll be taking these with me on every holiday or countryside daybreak for years to come.
