Athleta

Went here today to buy a yoga mat. Store was clean. Walked in and two associates were at cashier, neither greeted me. Walked by another, again no greeting but when I asked for help she was very accomodating and knowledgeable. She showed me two yoga mats one for $ 58 and another for $ 68. I walked out haha flash forward to later that day I got a yoga mat at burlington coat factory in union square for $ 9.99;)

Great comfortable workout gear. Always a plus when you try to get in shape and hit the gym hard!

LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
Very friendly & helpful staff
Very organized & clean store
Big fitting rooms with moving mirrors
Bathroom on premise which is a plus!
Great discount for personal trainers 25% discount on everything
Best sports bras EVER!!!

This shop is very hit or miss for me. I have gotten a couple cute dresses but they didn’t retain their color after a few washings. The bathing suits are pretty but offer no support up top.
The staff is very friendly and helpful. They are quick to take your clothes to a fitting room.
The work-​out clothes are not particularly impressive. I like Lululemon much better.

Came to this store for an event called ‘fueling amazing’. Arielle Hospel, host of glamour’s new cooking show was doing a cooking demo. I had to leave early but the first hour was meant for tasting some drinks, shopping and getting styled. I took a look around the store, which is spacious, but nothing really caught my eye. I do have a lot of fitness clothes already though, so your mileage may vary.
The demo was supposed to start at 7, but they were late and started at closer to 7:30, which was a bit annoying since I, and many other people there seemed to be on a time crunch. Also, we were all just standing around waiting so we weren’t sure what the hold us was.
Given their tardiness, I only got to had arielle speak for about 20 minutes before I had to book it. In that time she spoke about buying food in season, drinking lots of water, chewing food 15 — 30 times or until it liquifies in your mouth (helpful tips but nothing really new).
I got a goodie bag with lots of vouchers in them and garlic spice and found parking right away — although I think I just got lucky. I was also told that they have free fitness classes, which a lot of fitness stores are doing nowadays. I might be back to check one out.

The staff here was very friendly and helpful, and they took care of an old return of mine with no problem. The store’s energy was good — the layout was clean and organized and I always love a store that provides water bowls for dogs. Staff was also very knowledgable about their products and helped me make some choices for my next visit.

Great store
Organize
Friendly & Helpful staff
The Music isn’t too loud
They always have my size
Oh & you can use you Gap or Banana Republic Card…
I love this place they only thing they can improve on is more SALE, this only twice a year kind of suck

Great store with friendly staff. Had to return a tote due to a small tear. I called customer service and they contacted the store nearest me, made sure they had the bag in stock, and gave me a contact name. It was easily exchanged.

$ — Checked the website and found that the stores are offering free yoga and fitness classes, dates and times vary. If the store is closed at the time, knock on the glass and an associate will let you in. I went on a Sunday morning to take a yoga class with Guilia Pline from pure yoga.
Great class, solid instruction with gentle corrections, of which I am very appreciative. Mats provided, flavored water drink provided after the session. In-​store setting; there’s plenty of space to stretch out. You’re surrounded by (inspiring) clothing displays. Just makes you want to suit up and do some moving… or shopping.
$$-$$$- Love their clothing. Stylish, functional, lasting. Their work-​out pieces get the job done, often have little «perks» — an extra pocket, a zip waterproof pouch — that I appreciate — and the clothes always make me feel like I look great working-​out (true or not is a different story). I also love their every-​day wear. Costly, but yes, it’s a worthwhile investment to select your foundational pieces and maybe a few extra ;) The store has a large selection; the main website has a little more options, but if you’re looking for something specific you can have a sales associate help order the correct fit from the website. Shipping to the store for pick up is free (usually). The staff were helpful, pleasant, and accommodating, making for an enjoyable trip all around. Easy returns.

My first time here or buying any Athleta products. The products themselves are great, the staff was friendly, the store is clean and nicely laid out but I was a little disappointed by how much more they have on the website than in the store.
Either way, it’s expensive but a good investment.

Love this store! Very helpful service. Beautiful workout clothes that makes going to the gym a treat! Also helps that I’m now a size small! Athleta allows you to return clothes even after you’ve worn them if you’re unhappy with them.

named for sea snails?
better return policy
than lululemon

Athleta has a great selection of yoga pants and a myriad of other items. I wish they had the kind of calf compression socks I was looking for. but nonetheless, I found that I really love this location of Athleta. The staff immediately greeted me and asked if I needed help. The store is absolutely immaculate and well organized. Athleta is on the pricey side of things. But you can’t beat quality!

Great customer service and good selection of athletic clothes. The only problem is it is little pricey — hence 4 stars instead of 5.

Lululemon could learn a thing or two from the customer service at this store (as well as brand-​wide.) Athleta beats them on all fronts but most of all customer service (in person and on-​phone) and PRICE!
Susan at this location was extremely helpful in locating a package for me. She was just a store employee and she helped me track it down. She didn’t transfer me to an operator or blow me off — she simply took time out of her day to make the calls necessary so I could locate my purchase.
Super impressed and I’ll be shopping with Athleta from now on.
this 86^th st location is spacious and has a lot of variety — their swim section is enormous and the staff is super helpful!

I ordered some items on
and came here to get them hemmed. The lady in the fitting room was very helpful. They provide free water and snacks– a nice touch. The only negative thing is I used my points from my Banana Republic card for a purchase and their system did not refund the points when doing a return (unlike Banana Republic’s fairer system of prorating and refunding the points).

I love this brand. It’s one of the few places where I’ve found a 2-​piece sport bikini that I don’t feel like I’m falling out of. Yes it’s expensive, but their return policy can’t be beat — you can return clothing at any time, even if it’s been worn. And it’s all machine washable, which is not something you find nowadays in a lot of places.
I just wish they would start mailing me coupons like Old Navy does… HINT.

This store is great! Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. The girls here know what they are talking about.
I had a pair of pants that I’ve had for about a year now, saw that a hole was developing and brought it there to them and they exchanged it there for a new one no problem! Great return policy too! If you workout in the clothes and you aren’t feeling it, you can return it with your receipt no problem!

Same family of stores as Gap, Banana, etc, but the quality of the workout clothes is much higher than you’ll find at the Gap. I’m not in love with some of the color palettes and the wild tiki style prints, but I needed some new workout capris and found 2 black pairs that I can’t wait to wear. A bit pricey, but when investing in workout wardrobe foundations that will (hopefully) last a long time, I’m willing to spring a little. Staff was helpful, store is well laid out and pleasant to shop in – and free mini Luna bars :)

I love Athleta clothes but having to send back items ordered online was starting to bug me so I decided to check out the retail store when I was in the neighborhood.
This is a lovely store, with nice thought-​out details from the classy wooden hangers to the spacious and well-​outfitted dressing rooms. The staff was eager to help, and I enjoyed being able to touch the clothing … however, I won’t be buying anything here since they don’t have any petites in stock (which they normally do on the website/​catalog and is much appreciated.) Also, the prices are even higher than online, the selection (of non-​petites) is somewhat small, and much of what seemed to be in stock was in XXS or Tall.
At least I can come here and return things I buy online… :-(
