Allow us to formally introduce you to the Scuba Hoodie *Stretch. This is the newest edition in the continued evolution of the Scuba. Don’t worry - it will still feel like a warm hug on a cold day. Here are some of the reasons we love this new hoodie.

why we love this

A single layer makes it lighter & exposes the super soft back of the fabric for ultimate coziness against your face. This is also why the Scuba feels lighter than the previous version when you pick it up.

We used a newly developed Cotton Fleece when designing this Scuba. The new version comes complete with mechanical stretch so we have freedom to move – no side panels required. This new fabric is lightweight, warm and soft making it a triple threat against winter chill.

We updated the fit in the sleeves and shoulders so the Scuba Hoodie *Stretch fits like glove (and feels like a warm, fuzzy mitten). The narrow cut cuffs let this Scuba hug your hands and help to keep you warm.

We heard your feedback and we’ve gone to great lengths to make sure the fit of this hoodie is just right. We brought up the hem of the Scuba Hoodie *Stretch by 1.5" in order to reduce bulk.

Keep your eyes peeled for the Scuba Hoodie *Stretch. It will be popping up in stores and online in the next few weeks.

Alexis, our digital copywriter has one very particular happy place: getting lost in deep, dark wiki-holes in a pair of Wunder Unders, a Scuba Hoodie and some super cozy slippers. For her, the Scuba is the perfect piece for Whistler weekends and heading to and from spinning.  Oh, and Vanity Fair, if you’re watching this, Lex has a special message just for you.

Well, that’s all folks! Missed part of the series? Check out the entire under the hood series here.

There are few things cozier than sipping a cup of hot cocoa by an open fire. Our Scuba Hoodie is one of those things (without the sugar crash and need for a fire permit). In our new mini-series “Under the Hood” we catch up with some of our team members to ask why this classic hoodie is still their go-to piece.

Elim, our photo studio coordinator (and the mastermind who showed us 30 ways to wear our Wunder Unders), styles her Scuba with a Cool Racerback, French-rolled Astro Pants and a sweet pair of leather Chucks.

Check back next Tuesday for another installment of “under the hood”.

This week we thought we'd introduce you to Tiffany. Tiffany works in our Kingston, Ontario store as a key leader and holds the lululemon world record for most scuba hoodies owned by a single person. It gets cold in Kingston after all! And so, without further ado ... meet Tiffany!

What do you do at lululemon?

I am currently a key leader at the store in Kingston, Ontario. That is my official job title – but what I really do is set big hairy audacious goals; teach and coach the people I work with; learn, learn, learn; and have fun! I am the visual merchandiser for the store, as well as the facebook and website guru. I LOVE what I do.

What is a typical Monday like?

Working at the store in Kingston, each Monday is a bit different – but there are a few things that I never miss no matter the day! I always read the top-ten most emailed stories of the New York Times online (usually from my bed); grab a Starbucks; laugh; sweat; facebook; and listen to my favourite music!

What are your quotes to live by?

There are two quotes that I live by. The first is 'everything happens for a reason'. No matter what the situation, if you truly believe this is the case – you can never have a bad day. The second is 'experience is what you get when you don't get what you want'. Life is easy when its easy – it takes guts to learn from something you don't necessarily want to!

When you were younger what did you want to be?

I'm not sure if there was ever anything that I really wanted to be. I was always trying to create a business though – I loved lemonade stands! Now at the store in Kingston, we always joke that we are just 'playing store' – so I guess lululemon is where I'm supposed to be!

How do you sweat once a day?

I will either go for a run, go to my favourite yoga studio (which is a five minute walk from my house, which I LOVE!), or my guilty pleasure, sitting in the sun and sweatin' it out that way!

What's your favourite piece lululemon makes?

This is an impossible question for me to answer! I can't just pick one. Some of my favourite pieces are: the Remix lulu Hoodie, the Relaxed Fit Crops, the RUN: Race Tech and the Groovie Gym Bag. My favourite lululemon colour of all time is sunshine!

What is your 10 year goal?

I am living in Vancouver, working at the lululemon Store Support Centre. I have a beautiful loft, with a huge dining room so I can have dinner parties all the time (as of now I don't cook!). I live within walking distance to a yoga studio and a lululemon store. I have done my yoga teacher training, and am working on getting my MBA. Whew!

Do you have a BHAG?

Firstly, BHAGs are an addiction of mine. I set a new BHAG at least once a week… and I know I have a really, really good one when I get a little flutter in my heart every time I think about it! Currently, my biggest, baddest, hairiest audacious goal is to be the CEO of lululemon athletica by February 9, 2024. That's 15 years from the day I set it – I will be just shy of turning 35.

What is your greatest achievement so far?

Oh goodness! Well I like to think that I have way bigger and better achievements still ahead of me, but if I had to choose, it would be the life I've created for myself. It's the realization that I am in total control of my life – what I want, I can create!

Where do you think lululemon will be in 50 years?

In 50 years it will be June 2059, and I will be 70 years old. I truly cannot say – the world is moving at such a rapid rate, it's near impossible to speculate. I do know that lululemon will have changed the world – in raising the level of health of its communities, changing existing business practices, with respect to the environment, and the list could go on. It's as simple as that!
