The price of Lululemon’s popular leggings and yoga wear could soon jump by more than 10% because of President Donald Trump’s sweeping reciprocal tariffs, according to industry experts.
The high-end athleisure brand is “in the tariffs bullseye” – with the bulk of its manufacturing sourced from countries that were among the hardest hit hard, William Blair analyst Sharon Zackfia wrote in a note to clients.
Lululemon has said 40% of its products are made in Vietnam – which the US plans to hit with a 46% tariff.
Another 46% of Lululemon’s garments are produced in Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Bangladesh, which face tariffs between 32% and 49%.
That means Lululemon’s trademark $118 legging could spike to as high as $132.

The people who buy them probably don’t care. Will probably buy more.
“Oh to go back to the days when men looked forward to spring and the beginning of yoga pants season.”
I wouldn’t mind going back to the days, pre-gravity assault, when I looked forward to yoga pants season - LOL!
If the ghettopotamus’s walking around Wal-Mart go back to wearing their Acme tent and awning mu-mu’s it’s a win.
MAKE THEM IN THE USA !!!!
Vietnam just lowered tariffs to zero—we will do the same to them. Vietnam will get really rich and prices on goods from Vietnam will drop. They just screwed China.
Lululemon’s products are already vastly overpriced.
Went there to buy a yoga bag for my daughter - was shocked at the price and passed. Checked out the prices of their other merchandise and saw same.
Yoga pants; a gift and a curse.
I’m 66 and wear leggings for hiking and backpacking. I buy them at Goodwill because I know they are going to wear out quickly. I would never pay Lululemon prices.
Too late for crying, the tariff in Vietnam is already being negotiated to zero.
Can’t imagine what it must be like to have to do without $112 leggings or $132 one for that matter. I mean, like, OMG!
“Vietnam has already come to the batgining table.”
With a quickness!
