Entity lists all the cutest workout gear that make a cheap alternative to Lulu Lemon.

As great as it may be to wear brand-name workout gear, like athletic wear giant Lululemon, it may not be the most thrifty option. Lululemon has been in the news for a great deal of controversy, anyway. The company is not particularly known for being body positive and it has had some product quality problems.

Maybe it’s time to hang up your Lululemon pants for good and start looking for some more affordable options. Here are five great stores to look into.

1 Aerie

Not only is Aerie great for underwear sales, quality lacy bralettes and members of the itty bitty committee, but the company also sells yoga pants and workout gear. Aerie leggings are just so comfy, and anything you buy there is sure to be both cute and cozy. The best part? They frequently have sales and hi-rise leggings are sometimes as low as $10 a pair.

2 Target

Your friends spend hours in Target for no reason. This retail giant sells many affordable goodies, including workout attire. Look out for RBX tags, which indicate activewear products sold for less than $25. Additionally, the C9 by Champion line includes camisole sports bras for less than $17 each. Shopping spree, anyone?

3 Forever 21

We know you already spend a quarter of your biweekly paycheck at Forever 21. Why not get your workout gear there as well? This millennial store has some really cool yoga pants and workout leggings for prices as low as $20. But watch out: Sometimes those cheap prices mean poor quality. We recommend buying in-store so you can test out the fabric quality for yourself.

4 Old Navy

Old Navy features more than flip flops and tank tops; it’s also got some great workout options for affordable prices. Similar to Aerie, Old Navy has numerous sales, both in-store and online. And if you’re an avid online shopper, Old Navy makes it easy to shop by organizing its activewear line by sport, style or clothing item. The Go-Dry line has shorts for as little as $8 and running tees for $15 or less.

5 6pm

For those of you who may not have heard of it before, 6pm is a discount retail website. When you work out, you don’t just need good clothes; you also need great shoes. So for some sneakers that will give you the extra support and bounce you need, 6pm has discounted prices on popular brands, such as Nike and New Balance. Their shoes are typically 25 to 40 percent off the original price.

Check out these brands for a fabulous look without breaking the bank.
