Global athleisure brand Lululemon is leveling up in the Heights with a big move to a larger location. For Heights shoppers who live in leggings, the new location is just a short jog away from its former home.

The popular athleisure brand has officially closed its boutique-style storefront at Heights Mercantile and is relocating just five minutes down the street to a more spacious, high-traffic location at M-K-T Heights. This move is a progression for the brand in one of Houston’s most sought-after shopping neighborhoods.

Their former spot on Heights Street, housed in a repurposed residential building, was charming and very successful. It was so successful that the brand felt it needed more square footage to accommodate the needs of its shoppers.

According to the team at Triten Real Estate Partners, one of the developers of M-K-T Heights, the brand did not want to go too far from its original location and identified M-K-T as an excellent place for a new outpost.

The space, which is scheduled to open on June 11, will offer a more traditional layout, in line with the brand’s familiar store design, and brings additional benefits. The new store will be adjacent to a curated mix of local and national retailers, including Chloe Dao, Ray-Ban, Buckle Bunny Hat Bar, as well as restaurant favorites Buttermilk Baby, Mala Sichuan, and Casa Nomad. It will gain visibility from increased foot traffic, enhanced signage, and a sleek, open interior that allows for a more elevated guest experience.
