đĄ Intro â The Hunt for Affordable, Boujee-Looking Leggings
Alright besties, if youâre on a leggings obsession journey like me, youâve probs heard about the CRZ Butterluxe Leggings. People swear theyâre a dupe for Lululemon Aligns, but do they actually slap or nah? I put them to the test, so letâs break it downâthe good, the bad, and the lowkey weird. Peep them here if youâre already curious! đ

đ„ The Real Tea â Do They Hold Up?
1. Fabric & Fit â More Like Tights Than Leggings?
Not gonna lie, the Butterluxe fabric is mad soft, but itâs giving dance tights rather than the usual buttery stretch. Super lightweight? Yes. Contouring your curves like Aligns? Not so much. If you want that snatched waist, sculpted look, these might not be it. But if you need a pair that packs light for travel (calling all digital nomads âïž), theyâre a solid option!

2. Waistband Drama â High Waist or Nah?
The high waist on these is kinda sus. They donât sit as high as Aligns, so if youâre a pull-it-up-over-your-stomach kinda person, you might end up with some camel toe action (weâve all been there đ« ). They sit right at the waist, and while they hug your body, they can pinch a lilâ if you got curves. Check out some ultra-high-rise options here if youâre all about that sculpted waist vibe.
3. Sizing Drama â Amazon, WYD?
Amazonâs size tool straight-up LIED. It told me to get a small, but my gut said nah girl, get a mediumâthank GOD I listened. These leggings donât stretch as much as Aligns, so stick to your usual size or even size up. Trust me, you donât wanna be out here looking like a busted can of biscuits. đđ
4. The Pocket Struggle â Not Phone-Friendly đ±
I got excited for side pockets, but plot twistâtheyâre triangle-shaped and too small for a phone. My phone sticks out awkwardly, which is lowkey annoying when I just wanna be hands-free. If big, deep pockets are a must, these ainât it. Find leggings with actual good pockets here if thatâs a dealbreaker for you.

đ Final Verdict â Worth the Hype or Nah?
So, should you cop or drop the CRZ Butterluxe leggings? If you like thin, lightweight, soft leggings for everyday wear, theyâre a solid budget-friendly option. But if youâre expecting a one-to-one Align dupe, you might feel some kinda way. Theyâve got their quirks (đ waistband & pocket sitch), but for the price, they hit different.
If youâre curious, Iâd say give them a shotâjust size up and manage those expectations. đ LMK if you try them out, besties!
