Lululemon Align High-Rise Pant 25″ Review: Are They Worth $98?
Lululemon’s Align Pant is the leggings that launched a thousand dupes. After wearing the 25-inch high-rise version daily for a month — yoga, errands, even sleeping in them once — we get the hype.
Our rating: 4.7/5
Buttery soft, weightless, and incredibly flattering. The Aligns are pricey but truly the gold standard of yoga leggings.
Fabric Feel
The Nulu™ fabric is so soft it almost feels like wearing nothing. Four-way stretch moves with you in every direction, and the buttery hand-feel rivals lounge cashmere.
Fit & Coverage
The 6-inch waistband stays put through downward dogs and bridge poses — no rolling, no slipping. Squat-proof opaque, even in lighter colors.
Versatility
Equally at home in pilates class and brunch. The 25-inch length hits mid-calf on 5'7" testers, and the slim leg pairs well with crop tops or oversized sweatshirts.
Durability
After 30 washes the fabric still felt new — no pilling, no fading. Wash cold and air dry to maintain that buttery hand.
Pros
- Feels weightless
- Squat-proof opaque
- Stays-put waistband
- Holds up wash after wash
Cons
- $98 price tag
- Pills if washed with abrasive fabrics
- Length runs slightly short
Final Verdict
Buttery soft, weightless, and incredibly flattering. The Aligns are pricey but truly the gold standard of yoga leggings. Whether it fits your budget and use case is the only question left.
