lululemon is one of, if not the biggest, names in athleisure. They’ve dominated the stretchy yoga pants game and five-inch inseam frat-boy shorts market for years.
But until recently, lululemon had a rather large piece of the pie missing from their growing portfolio: golf.
Golf? Hasn’t lululemon always had polos? Sure. They’ve had polos for years. And their ever-popular ABC pants make frequent appearances on golf courses and college campuses around the globe. But they were mostly seen as clothing for everyday wear. Until recently, lululemon had marketed their polos, pants, etc., as appropriate for golf, but had yet to make anything specifically for golf. There’s a difference.
I remember the first time I saw a pair of pants from lululemon marketed as actual golf pants. This was around 2022 when the brand signed former NBA player turned college golfer JR Smith to an NIL deal.
That brings us to now. lululemon, rather quietly, has expanded their lineup of golf-specific clothing. As someone who’s experienced multiple pieces firsthand, I’ll be the first to say that it’s good. Between dominating the Best Golf Pants and Best Golf Shorts tests in 2023, lululemon is off to a hot start.
Let’s see what they’ve got cooking for 2024.
A Few of My Favorites
I’ve spent ample time in some of lululemon’s golf gear I wanted to take the time to highlight a few of my favorites in the hopes that you, like me, can upgrade your wardrobe. Trust me, your partner will probably like the gear just as much as you will.

lululemon is taking golf seriously and they’re doing a darn good job at it.
I’ll end with this: Each piece of lululemon gear I own has been well worth the price. Between the longevity of their gear and quality promise, investing in new golf gear from lululemon is money well spent, in my opinion.
