Wrap Tech

Lululemon updated their website with new photos of their tanks. They happened to put one up of the Wrap Tech tank in the print I bought - Wet Rose - so I thought I would post it. I am a total sucker for bright prints - they just energize me. (One thing I don't get is why Lululemon posts photos of so many of their tanks in black. It's really hard to see the details of the top with a small black photo)

The Wrap Tech is one of my favorite shirts to wear for spin. It's made of very lightweight Luxtreme and the upper back is covered with mesh for cooling. I wear a Deep V bra under it but I have seen it displayed in the store with a Flow Y in a contrasting color.


Features:
  • A perfect technical tank top for running!
  • Mesh front neckline panel for extra coverage
  • Mesh side panels & back panel for increased ventilation
  • Side pocket to secure money & keys
  • Made from luxtreme fabric with superior quick wicking properties
  • Preshrunk
  • Chafe resistant - flat seamed
  • Lycra® in fabric to hold its shape

Try On Review - Groove Down Crop

Although I am a big fan of the Groove Crop I can't find any love for the Groove Down Crop. They looked kinda cool on the hanger - an extra long contrasting waist that you can fold over to make different looks. However, once on, they just ended rolling right back up. I have a pair of Lucy pants that are designed the same way and do the same thing. Frankly, I can't see having an extra double layer of fabric at the tummy that will just bunch up under my top or unravel all the way to my boobs. For those ladies for whom this design works, the more power to you. I'll stick to the regular Groove Crop.

Verdict: Meh - Sale rack only.


Features:

  • Made with luon, our signature fabric
  • REVERSIBLE - your get 2 different looks!
