A gusset strengthens the crotch of pants by redistributing the stress on a seam so there are no longer 4 seams coming together right at a point that sustains a lot of movement. This is especially important when using leggings as active wear.
Why is the gusset not sewn?
In some cases, this might be because the underwear is already made of cotton, which allows your body to breathe without the aid of a gusset.

Is it better to size up or down in Lululemon?

Do you size down in Lululemon align?
lululemon typically runs true to size (TTS). I wear a size 6 in lululemon, which is equivalent to a US size small. We highly recommend referring to their size chart to find the best fit. If you’re in between sizes, we recommend sizing down.
Why do my Lululemon pants roll down at the waist?
Wrong Size
Sizing is the most obvious reason for leggings that fall down. Most leggings are made of compression fabrics, but they can only compress so much. If you accidentally size up or lose weight, the waistband won’t be sewed close enough to grip your mid section and stay up.

2-5 years
On average, Lululemon leggings last for 2-5 years if cared for properly. Some women I know have even had their Lulus for nearly 10 years!

How do you hide the V shape in jeans?
Wear underwear with a toweling crotch lining ( such as Janira underwear), as this can work as a barrier so the fabric doesn’t rise up. Take a panty liner and fold it around the front of your underwear to create a barrier in-between your body and jeans.
