1abelAritzia · Alternatives
Brands like Aritzia, compared one jogger at a time.
Most lists of stores like Aritzia name whole shops. This one compares a single garment, the fleece jogger Aritzia's page calls a fan favourite, so every row can be read on the same terms. Alo's page calls its Accolade Sweatpant a unisex style, and our catalog is unisex too, so two of these rows use a single size run. If you like Aritzia for a soft, roomy sweatpant, start with the detail you want to change: the fibre blend, where the rise sits, how the leg finishes, or what you pay. Use the named models and their original sources below, then compare garment measurements.
1ABEL is a Melbourne label: one 22-piece system, released one capsule at a time. Capsule 3 opens Nov 11, 2027, and until then the shop is waitlist-only.
— In short
This guide uses one reference: the Aritzia Cozy Sweatfleece Mega Jogger in Black. Its official US page lists 78% cotton and 22% polyester in a midweight fleece, an oversized Mega fit with a high rise and elastic cuffs, and Short, Regular and Tall heights, at $78 USD. The page does not publish a fabric weight figure. The four alternatives are the Skims Cotton Fleece Jogger, the Alo Accolade Sweatpant, the Lululemon Scuba Mid-Rise Oversized Jogger and the 1ABEL Sweats. Each row names one product, because fabric and fit change from model to model inside every brand.

The short version
Reference model, Aritzia Cozy Sweatfleece Mega Jogger in Black
The US page lists 78% cotton and 22% polyester in what Aritzia calls a midweight fleece with a brushed back and a sueded face. It describes the Mega fit as oversized with room to move, with a high rise, an ankle length, a waistband that can be worn rolled or unrolled, an infinity loop drawcord, dart pockets and elastic cuffs. It comes in Short, Regular and Tall heights; Regular is designed for heights around 5'3" to 5'7", with a 28" inseam in size S. Sizes run 2XS to 2XL, care is machine wash and the origin is given as imported. The page showed $78 USD with no struck-through price and does not publish a fabric weight figure.
Skims Cotton Fleece Jogger in Onyx
The US page lists 70% cotton and 30% polyester, a classic fit, an encased elastic waistband with an interior drawcord, side pockets lined in jersey and an encased elastic hem, and gives the origin as imported. It calls the fabric a medium weight Cotton Fleece without a figure, lists an embossed logo on the wearer's left hip, and the product copy says it fits true to size. Sizes run XXS to 4X at $88 USD.
Alo Accolade Sweatpant in Black
The US page lists 65% cotton and 35% polyester in a French terry it describes as smooth on the outside and fleecy on the inside, with an elastic waistband and cuffs. It calls the Accolade a unisex style designed for an oversized look and suggests sizing down once or twice for a closer fit. Inseams are listed as 29 ¾ inches for XXS to S and 30 ¼ inches for M to 2XL, in sizes XXS to 2XL, at $138 USD with no struck-through price. The page text we read gives no fabric weight and no country of origin.
Lululemon Scuba Mid-Rise Oversized Jogger, Regular, in Walnut Crunch
The US page lists a body of 70% cotton and 30% recycled polyester in a cotton-blend fleece, with lightweight warmth among the stated fabric features. It calls the fit oversized, exaggerated and extra roomy, with a mid rise and a full length intended to sit at the ankle for heights of 5'5" to 5'8", hand pockets with a hidden card sleeve in one, and an interior drawcord. Sizes run XXXS to XL, with 27", 30" and 32" length options. Walnut Crunch, the one colour listed, showed $89 USD against a $118 USD regular price and was marked final sale. No fabric weight figure is published.
1ABEL Sweats in Stone
Our catalog lists 320 gsm French terry, enzyme-washed, Portugal manufacture and sizes XS, S, M, L, XL at $135 USD. Flat drawcord at the waist, single back pocket. Pre-washed so they feel broken-in immediately. Relaxed through the thigh, gently tapered to the cuff. The catalog is unisex, so this is one size run rather than separate women's and men's sizing, and the record does not list a fibre percentage, an inseam or side pockets. These are our own declared specifications. They do not establish that the Sweats fit or feel like the Aritzia jogger, and you cannot buy them today: they are open for waitlist interest only.
The fibre blend is the clearest published difference. Aritzia lists 78% cotton, Skims and Lululemon 70% and Alo 65%, with polyester making up the rest; Lululemon specifies recycled polyester. Our catalog lists 320 gsm French terry, enzyme-washed without a fibre split. Alo and 1ABEL describe French terry, and the other three describe fleece. That tells you what each fabric is. It does not tell you which one you will find softer, warmer or longer lasting.
Only one weight figure is published here
Our catalog gives 320 GSM. Aritzia calls its fabric midweight, Skims calls its fleece medium weight and Lululemon lists lightweight warmth, all without a number, and Alo gives no weight. A word is not a measurement, so these joggers cannot be compared by weight. Weight describes fabric mass per area. It does not tell you how a jogger will fit, feel or last.
Compare fit with measurements. Lay a pair you already like flat and note the waist, hip, front rise, thigh, inseam and leg opening. "Mega" at Aritzia, "classic" at Skims, an oversized unisex cut at Alo, "oversized" at Lululemon and "relaxed through the thigh" in our catalog are five different patterns, and Aritzia lists a high rise where Lululemon lists a mid rise. If you usually buy women's sizes, a unisex letter size may not match yours, which is why Alo's page suggests sizing down; go by the measurements, not the letter.

Questions people ask
What stores are like Aritzia?
This guide compares four, through one sweatpant each: Skims, Alo, Lululemon and 1ABEL, set against the Aritzia Cozy Sweatfleece Mega Jogger. The overlap is partial. All five are fleece or French terry sweatpants with a relaxed or oversized cut, but the fibre blend, rise, size range, branding and listed price differ from one model to the next. Aritzia's US site also sells outerwear, dresses and workwear, so a store that matches it on joggers may not match it elsewhere.
What is Aritzia Sweatfleece made of?
The Cozy Sweatfleece Mega Jogger in Black lists 78% cotton and 22% polyester on the Aritzia US page checked on 18 October 2026. Aritzia describes the fabric as a midweight fleece with a brushed back and a sueded face, lists machine wash care and gives the origin as imported. Other Sweatfleece pieces and colours may differ, so check the exact listing.
How heavy is Aritzia Sweatfleece?
The product page calls it midweight and does not publish a GSM or ounce figure. Skims and Lululemon also describe their fleece in words, medium weight and lightweight warmth, and Alo gives no weight. Our catalog lists the 1ABEL Sweats at 320 GSM, the only number among these five, so the joggers here cannot be compared by weight.
How do Aritzia Mega Joggers fit?
Aritzia describes the Mega fit as oversized with room to move, with a high rise and an ankle length. The jogger comes in Short, Regular and Tall heights; Regular is designed for heights around 5'3" to 5'7" and has a 28" inseam in size S. Sizes run 2XS to 2XL. The same page links two other fits, Boyfriend and Perfect, and a straight-leg version.
Does Aritzia Sweatfleece have a logo?
The Mega Jogger page lists Aritzia embroidery among its features. Of the alternatives, the Skims page lists an embossed logo on the left hip, the Alo and Lululemon listings do not describe branding in their text, and the 1ABEL catalog record lists no logo or graphic. That applies to these models on 18 October 2026, so look at the product photos of the exact piece you want.
Are there unisex joggers like Aritzia?
Two of the models here are described that way. Alo calls the Accolade Sweatpant a unisex style designed for an oversized look, suggests sizing down once or twice for a closer fit and lists it in XXS to 2XL at $138 USD. The 1ABEL catalog is unisex, with the Sweats in XS, S, M, L, XL at $135 USD, waitlist-only. The Lululemon listing sits under women's joggers, and the Aritzia and Skims pages checked do not call their joggers unisex.
Is there an Aritzia sweatpants dupe?
These are distinct products from different brands. A similar fibre blend or an oversized cut does not establish matching measurements, feel or wear. Decide which detail you want to keep or change, such as the high rise, the elastic cuff or the logo, then inspect the exact garment.
How does the 1ABEL Sweats compare with the Aritzia Mega Jogger?
On published specifications only: our catalog lists 320 gsm French terry, enzyme-washed at $135 USD, made in Portugal, in unisex sizes XS, S, M, L, XL. The Aritzia page lists a 78% cotton and 22% polyester midweight fleece in an oversized Mega fit with a high rise and three heights, at $78 USD, and publishes no weight figure. Neither listing shows how a jogger fits or lasts. The 1ABEL Sweats are waitlist-only until Capsule 3 opens on 11.11.2027; joining the waitlist does not place an order.
