Functional bags

Lululemon 1L Everywhere Belt Bag

The belt bag trend isn't going away anytime soon. Our editors have praised the viral Everywhere belt bag for its unmatched practicality and sleek design—and our readers love it just as much. Small enough to be worn as a crossbody bag or a fanny pack, it somehow manages to fit all of my travel must-haves, including my AirPods, wallet, sunglasses, and a camera. There are several zippered and mesh pockets to help keep me organized and it‘s made of a water-repellent fabric.

Lululemon City Adventurer large duffel bag

One piece of luggage every traveler needs is a reliable duffel bag that holds enough clothing for a weekend getaway. And while I don't immediately think of Lululemon when it comes to luggage, the City Adventurer large duffel bag holds up just as well as other top weekender bags our editors have tested. It features a trolley sleeve, large adjustable straps, top handles, and plenty of pockets to stay organized. My favorite feature: The shoe compartment on the bottom of the bag keeps a pair of sneakers or sandals separate from your clothes.

Lululemon Daily Multi-Pocket Tote Bag, 20-liter

A roomy tote bag always comes in handy, whether you're running to the farmer's market, shopping for souvenirs, or headed to the airport. Made of water-repellent fabric, this lightweight bag is ready for whatever you have on the agenda, making it a versatile staple that our readers reach for time and time again. It features plenty of pockets and can stand up on its own, making it a little sturdier than other flat totes.

Lululemon Fast and Free running belt

This ultra slim, lightweight belt bag is on our editors' list of top running gear. While a larger belt bag is great for travelers on the go—say, going to a museum or heading out on a walking tour—runners require something much smaller. The Fast and Free running belt holds just the essentials: AirPods, credit cards, and keys. It features reflective details for your safety when running early in the morning or at night, and an adjustable low-bounce waistband that won't slow you down.

Comfortable sneakers

Lululemon Strongfeel training shoe

The one pair of shoes every traveler needs no matter where they're headed is a good white sneaker. The Strongfeel training shoe is a personal favorite of mine—I wear them on the plane, to the gym, and on city walking tours. After a year of working out and traveling in them, they still appear in great condition and have never hurt my feet. They feel so lightweight and I love how polished they look with an exercise dress or pair of bike shorts.

Lululemon Blissfeel 2 running shoe

Designed for runners, the Blissfeel 2 features foam cushioning, a durable outsole, and a seamless upper for maximum support and comfort. The sneaker offers breathability and flexibility as you move and has a sleeker shape than many other running shoes. Choose from a variety of colors, including lavender, orange, black, light gray, white, and more.

Activewear

Lululemon 28” Align pant

Our editors rave about the Align leggings, which have earned themselves a cult-following. Designed for yoga and everyday wear, these buttery soft leggings are so stretchy—they allow you to move comfortably in every direction. They're opaque and are made to last. Plus, they're available in a variety of colors and lengths—a huge plus if you're on the shorter or taller side.

Lululemon Wunder Train high-rise short

These biker shorts are buttery soft and the material hugs your body without being too restrictive. This pair is among our editors' favorite bike shorts—and for good reason. They're the perfect in-between length, offering enough leg coverage while still remaining breathable enough for hot days. Senior commerce editor Madison Flager turns to these for runs in the summer months—“they're easy to move in and not overly compressive around the stomach,” she says. Flager says they hold up well and stayed in place during a half marathon.

Lululemon Soft Jersey Classic-fit mid-rise jogger

When it comes to comfortable clothing for long-haul flights, there's nothing quite like a cozy pair of joggers. They look a little more polished than sweatpants and offer more breathing room than leggings. This mid-rise pair is made with a super-soft and stretchy material with a fast-drying, moisture-wicking construction.

Lululemon Align Dress

Exercise dresses are the perfect addition to every traveler's packing list: They are comfortable, versatile, and stylish. A favorite of our readers, the Align dress is made of a lightweight, buttery smooth fabric and offers enough support for yoga or long walks. This style is easy enough to dress up for dinner—just add a denim jacket and a pair of nice sandals.

Lululemon Run Times bra

Finding a reliable sports bra can be quite the challenge. The Run Times bra offers plenty of support and doesn't dig into your skin as you run, hike, or hit some tennis balls. Thanks to its sweat-wicking fabric and smooth material, you'll stay comfortable and cool on active days outdoors.

Lululemon Fast and Free ponytail running hat

Toss on the Fast and Free running hat the next time you head out for a jog. If you have long hair, the back opening is wide enough to fit your ponytail, and have it sit a bit higher up on your neck than the average baseball cap. This sleek, quick-drying hat also features four-way-stretch and reflective details.

Jackets and vests

Lululemon Another Mile Vest

A vest is the ultimate layering piece for those in-between temperatures. The Another Mile vest was designed with runners in mind, offering enough insulation to keep you warm on cold days and water-repellent fabric for unexpected rain. It has a slim fit to move with the body, and is windproof, too.

Lululemon Rain Rebel jacket

A rain jacket is a travel essential, but it isn't always the easiest thing to pack. This sleek, lightweight option fits nicely in your suitcase and offers plenty of protection. It's waterproof, windproof, and seam-sealed to keep you completely dry.

Lululemon Route Ready insulated jacket

Rounding out our list of Lululemon favorites is this espresso-colored puffer. It's well-insulated to keep you warm without being too bulky or heavy to pack. It's also water-resistant and windproof, and designed to keep you warm even when it gets wet. Not to mention, it's gorgeous!
