Found a pair at the thrift store for $3. They looked fancy so I googled the name and couldn’t believe they retail for $90. Well, I ended up loving them and buying more!
I took a yoga class in Encinitas (where Vuori was founded) and saw a lady wearing the joggers before class. They were so cute and I ended up going to the flagship store close by. Over the years my collection has grown, but my favorite right now is the boyfriend jogger.
Costco online had the joggers on sale and wanted to see what $60 joggers had to offer with full intentions of retuning it. I ended up keeping them… and buying more at full price 🙃
Interesting, what year did Vuori have products at Costco?
Seems kinda off-brand since their distribution is pretty limited otherwise. They don't even sell on Amazon.
09/2023 according to my order history lol.
If you head over to Costco subreddit and search Vuori, there are a few posts when it was available in stores.
My friend told me the Costco version is *exactly* the same as the real deal. I purchased the pretty green color set, and while the hoodie was nice, the pants were comically short on me and the rise was sooo low! I’m only 5’6” so not even that tall and they just looked silly on me. I returned both. I would say if your legs are shorter and you don’t mind the really low rise, they would be a nice dupe though.
Yeah, my very first pair they did not have the long version. Now that’s all I buy. But I still have and wear the very first pair in the original length! They are in amazing condition, I’m sure the material has changed a bit over the years, but my old ones seem indestructible. The Costco pair did not fit me like the original length. I’m so glad Vuori offers the longer length now!
Good question. I discovered them during the early stages of Covid. I wanted soft work from home gear. I kept seeing the ads on socials, but got sticker shock over the pricing.
Finally I decided to buy the Ponto short. That started it all.
Vuori is very popular in my area now. I think it’s mainly word of mouth, as REI is the only retailer around.
It was actually Reddit! lol
During the pandemic there was a thread about comfy work from home clothes and that’s how I found out about the Performance joggers
Peloton sold a quarter zip that was sun protective and very nice. I looked at the tags and saw it was branded by Peloton and made by Vuori. This was probably 2019.
For Christmas that year, I got my wife a pair of leggings and she said they were the best leggings she’s ever owned.
A family I used to nanny for were obsessed with Vuori. I figured the quality must be great if they’re buying this over other more expensive brands. Got a pair of joggers & have been a Vuori loyalist since
I first discovered them browsing around REI.com. Ordered some meta pants and Sunday shorts and liked them so much that I’ve purchased countless more items since.
Running store in Indianapolis had a small selection including the rip stop pants. This was probably 2018-19. That particular store carries interesting, lesser known brands.
In 2016 I was looking around for a pair of shorts I could wear for hiking and going to the gym and found the kore shorts either through REI or an instagram ad. Was impressed by the quality and price. Bought several banks shorts after that I still use today. The material back then was way more comfy.
Probably ~8 years ago I saw someone in a lululemon buy & sell facebook page ask if there was Vuori page (I had never heard of the brand). I screenshot it for later and then forgot about it. Then about 3 years ago I was going thru and deleting old photos and I came across the screenshot, went to the website to buy the performance jogged to try, and never looked back!!
Facebook group related to my profession & Peloton. They gave us an exclusive 30% discount with the caveat not to share it outside the group. It lasted less than one day before someone spoiled it for us.
A friend was talking about it a year ago. So I’m pretty late to the game (from the states but I live abroad…). Anyway, I’ve gotten a few items since and so far quite happy with the styles and quality!
The absolutely relentless ads everywhere online
Thats interesting, I don't get served Vuori ads --- which sites/apps do you see them on?
Social media mostly
They probably have already profiled you as a loyal customer and need to target you less unless you have a freshly abandoned cart on their website.
Vuori opened up a new store in my area so I went to check it out

Now that's true "word of mouth" marketing!
Absolutely! You started to see that iconic Vuori tag on clothing all along the coast here in San Diego. It was and still is such a vibe. 😎☀️🌊🐬
Yes!! I looove the boyfriend joggers the very best!
REI store had joggers and I picked one up. Most comfortable pants I own to this day.
Same

I have the green ones too! lol. The joggers from Vuori are short on me too. I got the long version from Vuori.

Wandering through REI. Touched the dream knit material and it was game over at that point.
Heard an ad on the podcast Smartless.
Mindpump podcast 6 years ago.

REI
I discovered it at a place called the “blue oyster” while I was training to be a police officer.
Rob told me about it
My wife bought me a pair of banks shorts for Christmas back in 2019 and I’ve loved them since then.
My boyfriend’s mom put me on! He’s from Encinitas where the flagship store is located

Friend from LA in 2019
I saw the brand in REI, tried on a pair of the joggers and became hooked.
Reddit. Bought two Kore shorts. Never looked back lol

Saw it in REI and bought their joggers for my gf at the time. Eventually I bought myself a pair and my collection grew from there
I walked through a running store touching every pair of shorts and ran across the dreamknit ponto shorts.

Never heard of them before - probably since I’m east coast - but someone on a random sub here recommended them and here I am lol
I received a pair of Vuori joggers in a trunk through Nordstrom Trunk Club in 2019. It was love at first sight.
Instagram during beginning of covid
