After 12 pairs of wunder unders and quite of few others as well, I had to return my most recent wunder unders I ordered due to the triangle gusset. Please bring back the diamond! Why change something that warranted its own blog post?

I just bought A pair of reversible WU online and thought I was going to have A CT problem but I am A short girl and sometimes I pull my pants up too high to compensate for extra length, but when I wear them where they are suppose to be its A miracle the CT goes away:) love the WU if I lived closer to A store I might get them shortened A little, at 5’4″ they might be considered A tad long but love them anyway.

Just returning a pair of Astro pants because of the triangle gusset. Why change a good thing?

Please change the gusset design so we can practice, run, and sweat comfortably. It’s unfortunate but after a shopping spree at LuLu, I have to return my pants and now rummage through the store to find the diamond gusset that fits so amazingly. If I cannot find any remaining pants with the diamond gusset, I will have to stop purchasing LULU- which I don’t want to because I loved how they fit. This concern is rampant throughout LuLu reviews and blogs alike- what will it take to make the changes? My practice deserves all of my energy and focus; therefore worrying about camel toe cannot be on my radar.

What happened to the very functional diamond shaped gusset? All of my new bottoms that I’ve bought recently have a triangle gusset instead, and it’s causing camel toe (which is what you said your pants don’t cause). I’m confused. Why the change? I see it in the reviews all over the website; no one is happy about the triangle gusset. Please change the gusset back to the diamond!

Since you guys changed the gusset shape of your bottoms the least you can do is let us know sbout it and not let us discover the change after we’ve paid for an item.

And specify in your product features what shape the gusset is for a particular style. Although I don’t know if that would help since same styles can have different shapes like my Polocrosse crops – the black has the diamond while the bruised berry has the triangle gusset! Why is that?? Are your numerous factories getting different pattern guides??

Best solution? Go back to diamond shape!

why is it you tout the diamond shaped gusset yet all of the newer crops have a cheaper triangular gusset? This causes CT. please go back to the diamond shaped ones, or at least be upfront that they are no longer diamond shaped. thanks

Hey Sarah,
Thanks for your feedback and question. If you are still finding the pants are riding up there even with the gusset, it would be to do with the rise.

When the rise of a pant is pulled higher than where it is intended to sit, this can create CT. We offer pants in various rises and they will sit on everyone in different places depending on their rise. To make sure you have your pants at the right height, make sure the waist is sitting flat all the way around. If you are pulling the pants to high, the waistband will appear higher on the hips as the fabric has been pulled up.

For me, some of our low rise pants, sit too low for my body’s rise, so I will opt for something with a mid or high rise design.
Hope that helps,
~Jenna

I still have camel toe in the lulu leggings I just bought. They’re the basic, black leggings–the wunder under pant, I think. I love them, but was concerned I might have too much camel toe, so I asked my fiance who was like, “that’s bad!” So now I’m self-conscious. Any tips to get rid of it? I love the pants and they’re super comfy besides the self-consciousness.

My main question is: Why do you have that seam down the middle? I appreciate the gusset, but that seam in the front above the gusset still creates CT.

Someone needs to address the issue of VPL w/ your pants. I am a dedicated lulu disciple & devout workout fiend who teaches fitness classes. It is crazy to me that women actually leave the house with such horrid panty lines in your pants. I truly think that there needs to be some education provided to the community in this regard. I am all about going commando. Since every pant and short you make has a gusset or liner, I believe that there is no need for underwear. Other women may not be as liberal and free thinking as I & truly believe that it is a sin to go commando, for them, and for those women who might not think to look in the mirror before they leave the house, I think that there needs to be some education. Maybe a sign in the dressing room? I don’t know. I am just so sick of looking at horrible VPL at the gym. Thoughts?

Hi Sarah,
It’s all about what you’re comfortable in – underwear or no underwear. Going without will not impact the pants.

Interesting, to say the least! So, how can I get one of those posters for my yoga studio?

Can you wear the yoga pants without underwear?? Would it cause infections or destroy the pants?
