Lululemon's ‘Like New’ Resale Section Discounts Are Going To Blow Your Mind

It's no secret we're huge fans of Lululemon here at Women's Health. If you shopped over Presidents' Day weekend, you'll know that finding deals on Lululemon gear isn't impossible, but you have to do a little digging. (Admittedly, I have the "We Made Too Much" section bookmarked on my computer.)

Enter Lululemon Like New: a section of Lululemon's site where you can shop gently used apparel at a fraction of the original price (we're talking up to 50% off!). The items in the Like New section span across almost all categories, including the brand's popular leggings or sports bras, and it's pretty well stocked with color and size options. The section even has *like new* Align leggings, one of our picks for the best high waisted leggings, for a cool $45.

Ahead, we explain how the Lululemon Like New program works — from trade in to resale. And below, we rounded up our top 1o finds in Lululemon Like New right now, to help you get started on sustainable and budget-friendly shopping.

What is Lululemon Like New?

Lululemon Like New is the company's official trade-in and resale program. Much like other resale shops, Like New encourages shoppers to trade in gently used Lululemon clothes that the brand revives before putting them back up for sale. Thanks to Lululemon's superior quality, merchandise can often look as good as new despite being years old.

Plus, shopping the Like New section is actually easier than digging through thrift store bins or searching other resale sites. You're guaranteed that your purchase meets Lululemon's strict quality standards, and everything comes in packaging with new labels and tags (another bonus: The prices tend to be even better than the "We Made Too Much" section).

And it's sustainable, keeping gently worn clothing out of landfills and back into the hands of shoppers. Lululemon states that 100% of the profits from Like New sales go toward lessening the retailer's environmental impact.

How does Lululemon Like New work?

Shoppers can trade in gently used apparel at any Lululemon store in the U.S. in exchange for store credit. Trade-in items have to meet specific qualifications (like no rips or pilling). Then, the brand revives and refreshes the pieces up to "like new" standards before listing the items on the site for resale.

When you shop, you'll notice pieces fall under the descriptions of "Good As New" or "Gently Used." "Good As New" means there's no visible damage or wear to the item. "Gently Used" implies there's some minor signs of wear, like light discoloration or pin holes, but the item still met Lululemon's standards upon return. There's about a $5 different in price point between the two conditions, with "Gently Used" being the lower price.
