The Lululemon Wunder Train High-Rise Tight 25" is the brand's smooth, quick-drying training legging. It uses Everlux fabric (77% nylon, 23% Lycra elastane), has a drawcord and a hidden waistband pocket, and comes in sizes 0-20. It has more hold than the Align and feels cool and sleek inside with a brushed outside. It is a good gym legging with the Lululemon price tag, so wait for a sale if you can.

On this page
Fit and sizing
The page lists sizes 0 through 20 and a 25" high-rise length. Page copy describes the sizing as true to size. The size guide lists 23", 25", 28" and 31" lengths, but the page does not say which apply to this style, so confirm before ordering if you need a different inseam. A waistband drawcord helps you adjust the fit, which is useful if you are between sizes.
Fabric and feel
Everlux is described by the brand as its fastest-drying fabric. The page says it feels "cool and sleek on the inside, soft and brushed on the outside," and it is breathable, sweat-wicking and four-way stretch. Owners often describe it as smoother and more supportive than Align, which is buttery but loose. There is no opacity or squat-proof claim on the page. Some customer reviews say the tights stay up during squats, but that is user opinion, not a brand claim.
How it performs for lifting and training
The Wunder Train is marketed for training and Pilates. The drawcord and hold make it suit squats, lunges and studio classes better than Align. The hidden waistband pocket fits a card and keys, not a phone, so you will still need a belt or another way to carry your phone. If you run, the Fast and Free has real pockets and reflective details.
Price and value
List price is about $98, and the page we checked showed a $59 final-sale price. At that level it competes well with other premium training leggings. At full price, the Gymshark Lift Seamless 2.0 or Gymshark New Whitney offer squat-proof claims for much less. See Lululemon for more.
Alternatives
If you want a softer feel, the Align is the usual pick. If you want more compression, the Alo Airlift is firmer. Our best squat-proof leggings page compares options with a brand squat-proof claim.
Who should skip it
Skip it if you want the softest possible feel, a phone-sized pocket, or plus sizes above 20.

The verdict
A smooth, quick-drying training tight with more hold than Align, and a good fit for lifting, classes and Pilates. It is easier to justify on sale than at about $98. Skip it for lounging or if you need a pocket for your phone.
