It is something they have done so well I must admit. The only thing that comes to mind when a man hears Lululemon, is a visual of a woman’s finely crafted exterior exclusive to Lulu’s sweat pants and for perfect reason.
I can’t help but laugh and enjoy the musings of such imagination. As for myself, for as long as I’ve been aware of the brand I’ve enjoyed certain pieces for leisure, travel and simply lazying around.
Inspired and created for the female yoga aficionado, the mega athletic brand has decided to expand its reach to the “30-year-old gentle male.” Finally!
It was only a few years ago when I had to convince a good male friend of mine that the Lululemon warehouse sale across from our work was something no one should dare miss as it is a rare occasion. He laughed and insisted that the brand was for women only. Was I about to prove him wrong? I successfully persuaded and we made our way. We got there at a good time and waited about an hour.
As we entered, he gasped. Literally. I was then stuck having to pick out about ten outfits for him as he was amazed and couldn’t believe the masculine and incredibly sporty and sexy pieces he was finding. That wasn’t it. I was happily forced to assist in cross selecting his garments and helping him mix and match.
Months later not only was he rocking his new gear, but his retelling of the story is something I still take credit for.
SVP of Lululemon Men’s explained to Time magazine, “they conceived of their idealized guest: in his 30s, confident, accomplished, goal-oriented, self-assured (your proverbial “husband material,” basically).” Many of the key elements that distinguish what manhood typically should look like at that age.
Here are 8 reasons to shop and sport Lululemon the manly way.
- With a wide array of neutral shades, colors are never a challenge.
- Swap your no name sweats for a sleek pair of City Sweat Joggers. Believe me when I say women like a man with nice tush too.
- Whether yoga, golf, MMA or whatever your sporting pleasure, you can find pieces that are easy to fit.
- Flexible and breathable but also simple and stylish.
- So light and practical, packing for travel becomes more efficient.
- Designed for minimalism, Lulu makes layering super easy.
- Comfortable and high caliber quality. Expect to make room in your closet for years to come.
- If you’re ok with Under Armor, then you’ll be even comfortable with Lululemon for him.
From sweat and post-sweat to no-sweat. Shorts, pants, and hoodies, there is undeniably no excuse why any man shouldn’t pair comfy with form fitting and be ridiculously stylish in the process. It’s only fair to us die-hard trying females.
Gentleman, if you want simplicity and style, I encourage you. No scratch that. For some of you, I dare you to venture in a Lululemon today or go online and follow my simple how to shop and sport Lululemon for him.
