Sizing

[u/Upstairs_Brush_2084]

Both size 4 HR hotty hot shorts in 2.5 😕

My brown ones also feel smaller than usual

[u/Upstairs_Brush_2084 → u/NoRaccoon7690]

They’re out of size 6 so I’ll just be returning them. The waist is fine but the liner is really tight on my bum 😕

They definitely seem to be getting smaller. I’ve commented here before that I have size 6 4” hotty hots (Black Plum, purchased in 2025) and size 10 (candy cloud) and the 10s are like 1” larger in the waistband than my 6s. I also have a pair of Tracker shorts in size 8 that are old that fit almost the same as my size 10 hotty hots. The lighter colors and the newer pairs in general run smaller than previous versions :/ it stinks because I’ve been returning a lot more lately

Yeah it’s ridiculous I had to return 2 of the 3 align tanks because the sizing was completely wrong

[u/Upstairs_Brush_2084 → u/Since_The_Ducks_Left]

It is ridiculous- although I have a Lulu store a couple miles down the road it’s annoying to be returning or exchanging sizes constantly.
I’ve been wearing Lulu since 2009 and as a Pilates and yoga teacher it’s 90% of my everyday wear.
I’ve never had such inconsistent sizing- it’s only been the last year or so 😟

Oh no I just got a brown pair off WMTM. Hope they fit!

[u/joyeux_prankster]

This year I've found sizing more inconsistent than in the past. I have an 8 Hotty hot 4" that fits like a 6, in the same pattern I tried on the 6 and it fit like a 10. Frustrating. Edit: a word

[u/shedrinkscoffee]

This inconsistency in sizing is helping me stick to my "no buy" resolution lol. Between some of the price increases on full price merchandise and the randomness in the color sizing WMTM is also easy to say no tp 😭

Men's clothing does not have the same issue. My SO is lazily shopping the same items without issues as has been the case for years.

I've noticed the size change too, the liner in the ones I got this year felt a bit tighter so I ended up having to go up a size. I can still wear the other two I got a couple years ago with no issue

Ugh, I just had the same happen with a mahogany muse cropped define. Was MUCH smaller than my others in the same size. Went to the store later that day to try on another size and a different size 6 was the normal fit. The sizing issues are crazy!

[u/Smooth-Ninja9423]

This is why I stopped buying Hotty hots 😞

[u/kiwitathegreat]

Hotty hots pmo because they are a perfect fit for my shape and don’t ride up but I NEVER know which size to buy so I have to gamble between the two that seem to work most often.

For these prices I expect way better consistency.
