    That's exactly how I felt.
    Believe me, I like nice yoga clothes (or any clothes), but something just turned me off about this place.

    I went in looking for capri shorts. At my height most just look like high water pants on me Right now I'm wearing board shorts, I got at Title9, they look like capri length on me.

    The sales person said if I find a pair I like they will shorten the hem for me, no extra charge I like that emphasis on service.

    Still I prefer Title9 for athletic and other gear .... and TE of course

    I'm a Lucy fan for yoga gear. Mostly b/c they have an outlet store in Williamsburg, VA that has some super awesome deals. I'm pretty thin, but I'd have to weigh about 25 pounds less to look "good" in Lululemon.

    Wow! I'm surprised so many people dislike the brand here. I don't wear it for yoga, I wear the clothes for CrossFit and running, but I find them to be very flattering and well constructed. I don't mind paying for quality and after trying the workout clothes at Target, JC Penney, Nike, etc, I found I'd rather have a smaller wardrobe of better items. And at five feet tall, it's nice to shop at a place that does the hemming for me.

    Jessmarimba, I also like Lucy!

    But I get that any brand can be less than ideal for a certain body. JC Penney has a very cute line of workout clothing - can't think of the name right now - but the clothes just don't fit me at all, no matter which size or style I try.

    I just purchased a Lululemon long underwear top. I am looking forward to using it in the colder weather. It is supposed to fit pretty tightly. I am hoping it will really wick the sweat so I don't get cold. Very reasonably priced when you look at Icebreaker (which I love) and Ibex.

    I will give feedback when I get a few rides in.

    Not a fan of Lulu either. They don't seem to have large enough sizes for me (12-14), at least the last time I shopped there a couple years ago.

    I LOVE Title Nine! Looking through their catalog is like Christmas for me. Their clothes are well made and fit well.

    I've never bought anything from them, but I'm a fan of them now.

    I tried on some of their sports bras a few months ago. They didn't have any that worked for me, but that's because most sports bras don't fit me right. The people who worked there were very helpful.

    - Red hardtail 26" aluminum mountain bike, Bontrager Evoke WSD saddle
    - Royal blue 2018 aluminum gravel bike, Rivet Pearl saddle

    Gone but not forgotten:
    - Silver 2003 aluminum road bike
    - Two awesome worn out Juliana saddles

    I love the products that Title Nine carries, but it makes me crazy that they come up with their own names for things and rarely list the manufacturer or the manufacturer's model name. It's difficult to comparison shop when you don't even know who makes a product, and it strikes me as deceptive.
