Too sheer - completely see through!
These have always been my most loved Lulu pants. I have multiple pairs. I was so excited to receive my grey pair - until I tried them on and bent over. They are completely sheer. I got them in the same size as all my other lulu pants. The fit is great and they look great - until you move. I am SO disappointed. What is happening Lulu? I thought you were dealing with the sheerness issue. PLEASE fix your product or we will need to look elsewhere. These are absolutely NOT the quality or thickness of my other pants from prior years. So very sad. I have tried not to complain that my new inspire crops are also completely sheer - I decided since they are for running I would keep them. But, a sheer pair of yoga pants is complete nonsense! Any plans to return to prior quality levels or should we all start shopping elsewhere?

Don't understand complaints
I'm new to Lulu, so I've scoured reviews trying to be sure that I was making a worthwhile purchase. I've seen so many negative reviews that I felt I should help contribute something positive. I just got the G&C's in the soot light/twiggy printed nimbus and I LOVE them. I'm 118 lb, 5'5" and bought a size 6 so that they weren't overly tight. I did the "bend over in front of a mirror test" and I'll admit you could see the tag, but you know what? I rip that out anyway, so what does it matter? Could you see anything else? No. However I will mention that I was wearing a nude colored thong. That's just me... maybe others wear underwear with more coverage and perhaps I could understand being able to see them.
But I would highly recommend them. I'm looking forward to wearing them for my yoga tonight, and I also think they'll be great casual crops to wear on the weekends. Wanted to show some love amidst all the hate.

I cant believe it is made of Luon?
I received my package yesterday and immediately put it on. To my surprise, the material, I purchased inkwell with stripe is nothing like other Luon crops I own. I had been reading reviews before I finally placed the order and hoped for the best. I have to agree with some of the reviews said it is like the pants you purchased from Walmart. It is thin, rough and makes my lower body look bigger than it actually is.

Totally Sheer
I was very excited to receive these crops and naively assumed that since these were new that they wouldn't have the same issues as the ones that had been recalled. WRONG! As soon as I got them, I tried them on and then bent over and they were completely sheer. I bought these in grey (soli/twpn), and am very disappointed.

Back in Black
Love these crops!!! But one request-PLEASE bring back black!!

Seriously, Don't Bother!
First off let me tell you that I love Lulu. Most of their items are on the nose, these however, are definitely NOT.
I purchased the light soot/twiggy in my normal size 10, the size I order for all my bottoms. They were thin, flimsy and not the normal soft and cozy feel I truly love about LuLu. I have an older pair of the crops that are thicker and ohhh so soft and comfortable. I forget I have pants on.
These will be going back to the store.

See thru!
I've been reluctant to purchase anything from Lulu with all the issues with sheerness, even after the claim the problem is fixed. I keep reading review after review still complaining of sheerness. I had a gift card from Christmas that I've been waiting to use, but I've been hanging onto it because of the issues.
I ordered the soot light/twiggy printed nimbus because they were super cute, but made sure I bent over when they arrived. You could not only see my underwear thru, but also the tag AND my skin! I ordered in my usual size, so I don't feel they were too small. Super disappointed in the quality and feeling like Lulu doesn't really care because they continue to put out subpar garments. Will be thinking twice about purchasing again. Will be going back to return these ASAP!

Great in beaming blue - so far
I found these to be TTS, comfortable, and great for yoga. They stay in place and don't give me camel toe. I have washed & worn them several times without issue. I hope, however, that I do not expect the quick deterioration in quality that has been reported by other folks with the beaming blue (which is a gorgeous color!)

Love!!
These are probably my favorite capris, I am so happy to see them in some new colors. The fit is great, and the slit in the lower leg makes them very comfortable to move in.

not quite sure what to make of this
I have 3 pairs of gather and crows. 2 regular black old(er) pairs, and one of the beaming blues that went to loot a couple of months ago.
I really liked the old G&Cs good solid luon quality, flattering, and all that jazz. When the beaming blue went to loot, I decided to grab a pair even though I had read reviews that there were sheer. I figured they deserved a chance.
After wearing the beaming blue G&C's about 5 times (at most), I was in a yin-ish class 3 evenings ago and while it a straddle split & trying to get my chest to the ground, horror of horrors! I noticed a tiny hole just near my crotch actually along the seam at the area around the p*bic bone above the crotch (sorry if this is too much detail). However workout gear is stretchy and hence a tiny hole when work and stretched in becomes a bigger hole. Thankfully I was wearing undies that day as sometimes I forget to bring undies when I stumble out of the house for work in the morning and am go commando. It's just strange that I didn't think the sheerness issue that others had reported was THAT bad, only to end up w a hole on the pants in the crotch area.
