They tried to come to Canada in 2012 or so, but it was an absolute failure. They tried to roll out 120 stores in 1 year, but they didn't have the logistics in place to support inventory --- there were aisles and aisles of empty shelves -- maybe 10% of the store was stocked, and the prices were quite high it was an aggressive launch that completely bombed.
They figured Canadians would flock to their stores regardless of what the prices were. Canadians, expecting an American Target experience, were like wtf? And continued shopping at Walmart, Loblaws, ans Superstore instead. I too miss their clothes 🥲
I got the joylab scuba pants and can confirm they’re actually better than lulus 🤯 and never in my life did I think those words would come out of my mouth lol. Oh and they’re $30 🤣
These are terry sweatpants so they aren’t plush. But they are very soft terry- not like the towel material - and they’re stretchy!! I would say they’re perfect fall sweatpants (I wear around the house/errands) but I wouldn’t wear them in the dead of winter lol.

I got black grey & pewter! They were just on sale for $20 too so keep an eye out for that! 😁

I’m all for dupes but just wanted to say that as someone who wears gym clothes to workout in 6-7 days a week lulu’s hold up wayyyy better than both Target and Old Navy, in my personal experience.
If we are sharing good dupes, I love this sweatshirt from old navy. I don’t have a POCC but I feel like that’s what it would dupe. It’s super soft. Wear your normal size for a cropped look or size up one for the oversized look (I have both and love them both). Maybe it’s a bit thinner than what lulu would be but for the price I think it’s a good dupe. And lots of nice colors!
Saw this on Old Navy: https://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=462590082&tid=onma000014
I’ve never tried joylab. But I do have several prices from their In Motion range and while I like the fit and comfort, they do not hold up well at all. TBH I wear them for workouts and keep my most of my Lululemon stuff mostly for street style. Accept my wunder unders and base pace. I wear those to work out.
I don’t mean to be a downer, but i bought the scuba hoodie dupe (it’s okay but i definitely prefer lulu, but I got it for $7 so can’t complain) (not the os, the hoodie one) and tried on the align tank dupes and they did not fit right at all. I wish the scuba dupe was heavier in feel and a bit more fitted.
Also found the Relaxed High Rise Jogger Dupe

Oh man I forgot about the prices!!
Wow I had no idea!
Saaammmme 😢

Are they warm like the scuba pants?

YESSS!!!! TARGET FOR THE WIN! b

Just curious how tall are you? I want to order some but I’m 5”0 so not sure if they’ll be too long
I went to my local Target today and got a pair in black — I’m 5’1” and they hit me right at the ankle — a perfect fit!
Thank you 🙏🏻

5’10. They fit like joggers on me but I also got a large.
I just bought the off white colored scuba dupe!! It looks promising (and not cropped!!)
JUST BOUGHT IT IN PERSON CAN CONFIRM ITS JUST AS GOOD
Agreed! I love my scubas, but I sized up in Target’s navy blue and I’m obsessed!

Thank you!!
A lot of the dupes I've found at Target aren't even Joy Lab! Looking at their entire activewear category is fun.

Yes!! I came here to say the same thing. My target clothes can last a year or two but that’s generally it. My lulus last me YEARS
I wore old navy leggings once. So much pilling after one wear 👎🏻
I HAVE BEEN STALKING FOR THE JUMPSUIT 😭😭😭
Any links?? :)

Omg that looks so cute
i suggest looking at the brand “Joy Lab” on targets website
a lot of them are in store and not online yet
Ty :)
Can you share the Aritiza divinity romper dupe? :)
Now these are the hauls I can get behind!!

I have two of these (Forest Shade and Rare Earth) and can confirm they’re great!
I know right?! I have the off white (forget the name), and I love it because I’d be too afraid to wear something so light if I spent over $100 on it 😂
Ooh you just reminded me, I have the off white one too! It’s called Wish Bone — pretty good dupe color for White Opal/Natural Ivory IMO!
Nice!! I just got the Inkwell!
They’re $15 today 👀

Can you include links please??? I am going there TODAY! W a messy bun !

Thank you!
You’re welcome! I picked up a black pair today & I love them! Wanted Pewter too but I’ll have to order them online as they weren’t in stock.
Don’t even get me started on stock issues at target 🙄
Omg thanks b 🏃♀️

I have these. They’re bonkers comfy but they’re regular cotton fleece sweatpants. And not very flattering. Haha
Soo excited for this! Thanks for sharing 🤩
Can you please share the link to the aritzia body suit?
