Spread the Lululemon Love! 10 Gifts Guaranteed to Please From Our Favorite Athleisure Retailer

If marshmallows were appropriate to wear on your feet, we’re pretty sure they’d feel like these slides. Banish achy feet forever and relish each pillowy step these slides offer. Made from layered foam, a cushy upper layer cradles your foot, while the firmer bottom layer gives you arch support. Plus, they’re engineered to help you recover after a workout, so they’re comfy and will put some spring in your step post pilates class. KCM editor Maggie got these for her husband, who lives in sneakers, but once he slid his feet into these, he felt right at home. They also have them in women’s sizes. 

Having a perfect backhand is not a requirement for rocking the tennis-inspired fashion trend, and for that, we are grateful. Katie is a huge fan of this skirt because it’s longer than most other athletic skirts, and it has built-in pockets for extra coverage when you’re running cross-court or running errands.

For the person who is always in sweatpants when they probably shouldn’t be, gift them an option that’s a bit more dressed up. These smooth joggers won’t pill or stretch out like regular cotton ones, and they’re certainly an upgrade from a pair you’d wear to the gym. A slightly tapered fit with a band around the ankle elevates the look of these, and they’re still just as comfortable as the tattered pair they’ve had for years. 

Buttery, soft, and lightweight are words you’d use to describe a fresh loaf of bread, but we’d also use them to design these cult-favorite leggings. A wide waistband offers support and light compression across the midsection, which always feels comforting, and the full-length legs won’t ride up as you move around like cropped leggings tend to. With 19 colors to choose from, the hardest choice is deciding if you want to buy more than one pair at a time. 

Can’t decide on a hot or cold drink? Don’t. This stainless steel bottle can hold one or the other, so there’s no need to carry around more than one vessel at a time. After your morning coffee or smoothie, rinse it out and use it to hold ice cold water. This makes a great gift for the person on the go, especially if they’re all about staying hydrated.

It’s time to let go of that tattered Jansport you’ve been carrying since the early ‘90s. Upgrade to this Apple of backpacks, which is full of pockets to keep cords, clothes, and anything else you carry daily organized. An amazing gift for commuters or those who travel often, it  even has a padded laptop slot with its own zipper for easy access.

Belt bag, meet sling bag. If you think fanny packs should stay in the ‘80s, then consider this crossbody cousin of the bag instead. This one has a roomy interior with a mesh pocket and key loop to keep them from getting lost in your bag. On the outside, there’s one slip pocket for a phone and one zippered for any other essentials. The strap is long enough to wear crossbody, but you can also adjust it to be a shoulder bag if you want to rock an athleisure look.

Thankfully sneakers are in style again, both for exercise and day-to-day. Those who need some extra arch support will love lululemon’s new training shoe, which was specifically designed to seamlessly transition from running to training, however, we’d wear them to transition from walking to sitting at brunch. Plus, these come in eight different colors.

You can’t send a literal hug through the mail, but this may be the next best thing. Made with snuggly French Terry, this soft sweatshirt will cloak your recipient in love — even if you are the recipient. Treat yourself! 

Maggie got this luxe headband as a gift for her sister who loves the thick, bold headband trend but wasn’t ready to dive head first into elaborate headpieces. This slightly puffed-up piece felt a lot less intimidating. She also requires that all headbands hold up the baby hairs on the back of her head, so she was thrilled to see this one went all the way around.
