Athleta

Athleta is my favorite store. I shop there a lot because of my profession as a dog walker. Though I’m there a lot, it always impresses me that the salespeople know my name. And I’ve gotten to know many of them so for fear of leaving someone out, I won’t mention the names. Your shopping experience will be a great one. Personalized attention, knowledgeable salespeople who will not let you walk out the door unless you look great in the clothes.
As far as the clothes, I love them. They are worth every penny. I’ve had pants for years and they still look as good as they did when I bought them. And I wear them 7 days a week, so they are washed at least once a week.
The return policy is another thing that’s great. Being able to return something because it didn’t feel good after wearing it makes all the difference. Your purchase is risk free. Because of the fit and quality, I don’t have to return much at all. If you find something you like, I suggest you buy 2! And, do not think for one minute that you have to be a stick figure to wear the clothes. They are built for all shapes and sizes.
For quality, look and a good shopping experience, go see the girls at Athleta in Atlantic Station. You can also bring your dog! They go nuts over a cute dog!

I just flew in from NYC and thought I’d do a little shopping at Athleta, Atlantic Station, only to be turned away at the door because a yoga session had maxed out their capacity. Is Athleta a gym or a business?
If it’s a business, I would suggest revamping your strategy.
I hope the Yogaphites generated sales beyond forecast.

Service was horrible. Was not greeted and no one helped me with anything. I won’t be going back and I will be calling management. No one should be treated the way I was… To spend money. Shop at lululemon

I’m sorry, but although i love the merchandise, i found the associates here unhelpful. Also, the store didn’t have all the sizes of some of their basic black pants. That’s essential. And when I finally found the one, after rummaging around, in cubes that were not well organized by size, it had a defect, a hole in the seaming. So it took a long time to find pants that fit, instead of the basics I was looking for. Separately (this is not at all the associates’ fault), but this is a store that is about fitness, hosts yoga classes, and is in an OUTDOOR mall, and yet has no bathroom? I do not want to go walk a quarter mile in the cold rain to go to a supermarket bathroom, after i just spent 45 minutes trying on clothes. I left without buying even clothes i had settled on.

Also forgot to add that they have a great selection of swimwear bras for women like myself that has C and DD breast size. I know its hard finding swimwear that doesnt fit your top but these bras are supportive and comfortable. I do want to say that they start about $ 30.00 but trust me they are worth it do catch the sales. You don’t have to buy the set just the top and buy bottoms from target or walmart.

I love this store! Super helpful associates and well merchandised store. I do recommend going there for yoga clothing, swimwear, and casual dresses. Great quality and fit.
They also have great sales throughout the year. If your size is not available at the store, then they will help you look it up online to see if it is available there. The online reviews of their clothing is very helpful in terms of sizing and fit.
There are also free yoga and Pilates classes offered on Saturdays and Sundays. The schedule is on their website. Very good marketing to have classes in the middle of the store where you can look at all the great clothing while exercising and then folks end up staying at the store afterwards to make a purchase:)
Big fan of the relay capri pant which is quite versatile. It is great for running, yoga, and just working it at the gym.

It’s no lululemon, but they’re trying. The inside looks like Anthropologie and the gap had a baby that wanted to play sports. The women working there were incredibly helpful, but the store lacked a lot of sizes and styles, and the staff weren’t privvy to the online ordering system.

Like lululemon only cheaper, less sheer, and a WAY better return policy. They have yoga type clothes as well as more hike and active outdoors type of clothing. Employees have always been helpful in getting me a fitting room and trying to find my size. They also gave my dog loads of love when I brought her in… I love a dog friendly store!

I visited this store for the first time on yesterday. They had an impressive amount of merchandise both activewear and street wear. I’ve shopped out of their catalog for years and have always liked their clothing but often times was unsure of the size, it’s so nice that there is finally a store locally that I can actually try things on before I order. Best of all, the sales clerks were professional but not at all pushy. A clerk greeted me as I walked in and I explained to her «Thanks but I’m just looking today» and she was fine with that unlike my experience at Lululemon Athletica on the Westside (see my review). I plan to visit this store again, expecially as the weather warms up.

I was super excited to learn that Athleta was opening a store in Atlanta. I have always browsed the website but never ordered because I wasn’t sure how things would fit and the whole buying and returning things from online can get a little old.
We were meeting some friends for dinner at AS and I decided to stop in here just to browse around. I was honestly expecting more merchandise because of the vast selection available online. I am into running and am always looking for better compression capris/​tights. The running selection seemed minimal. The store definitely caters more to the yoga crowd and they also offer more street clothes than I would have expected. Prices seem a little high but not too crazy outlandish. Definitely still more affordable than Lulu. I definitely want to go back when I have time to try stuff on.
Athleta loses some stars because of the customer service. My husband and I were in the store for a good 15 – 20 minutes browsing around and not one associate said anything to us. There were two sales associates on the floor and two behind the register. We circled around the two girls on the floor more than once and not a single word was uttered to us. I find that a bit perplexing especially when you are a relatively new store.
Anyway, I will come back when I have more time and I hope to be able to update with a better review.

I love this store! If not for the return any item, any time, for any reason policy; then for the fact that they make pants, skirts, and capris in tall!!! Finally i can buy skorts without looking like I’m going to flash the world. I admit the prices are a bit high, and for that, I will continue to shop their website so I can order things on sale-​but it’s so cool to be able to try their clothes on in person now. I really love their clothes designed for cold weather activity as well, especially the ski pants in tall, no more high waters!
