Die-hard Target shoppers know that the store is a goldmine of designer dupes, and Lululemon is one of its top inspirations. There are these Wild Fable belt bags, for instance, that are identical to the ubiquitous Everywhere Bag, but for just $15. And don’t forget Target’s popular $25 leggings that look, feel and fit exactly like the coveted Align yoga pants. Now, the Sandwash Sweatshirt by A New Day is the latest in a long line of affordable dupes…and perhaps the best one yet? We’ll let you be the judge.

“You cannot tell me there’s a difference,” said one incredulous TikToker as she held a cream-colored sweatshirt that looks like a total doppelgänger of Lululemon’s $128 Softstreme sweatshirt. “Stitches, everything is the same on this … And this feels amazing.”


Just to bring everyone up to speed, the Softstreme sweatshirt is popular among Lulu fans for its super soft material (reviewers say it’s “amazingly soft”) and its flowy, relaxed fit. It’s basically the ultimate comfy pullover for lounging around the house. Fortunately, you don’t have to spend over $100 to get that same quality in a sweatshirt, thanks to TikTok.


The Sandwash Sweatshirt by A New Day at Target, comes in five colors that are pretty similar to the real thing — except Target’s lookalike is just $25.

The Sandwash Sweatshirt is a heavyweight basic, perfect for snuggling up in — and apparently the cream version is an identical match for Lulu’s white opal Softstreme sweatshirt. It hits right at the hip, has ribbed cuffs and a waistband that doesn’t hug. It also nails that slouchy, cropped-but-not-too-cropped aesthetic that’s super trendy right now.



Not only that, the feel of the Sandwash Sweatshirt is, quite frankly, luxurious as well. One shopper called it “buttery soft,” while another said it is a “phenomenal shirt” with a “high end feel.” Best part? It comes in multiple colors including Kelly green, black, and navy.


“Lululemon, is that you?” one TikToker wrote while holding up the The Sandwash Sweatshirt in soft lavender. She called this sweatshirt by A New Day “nearly identical” and said the look, feel and stitching are “spot on.” “It’s literally the exact same material,” another claimed.

The length of the Sandwash Sweatshirt is flattering on its own but just long enough for tucking in if you want to style it with jeans or a skirt. It has a little bit of stretch and is made of recycled materials that wash well in the machine, say reviewers.



The appeal of the Sandwash Sweatshirt even transcends generations! “My daughter told me about this shirt so I ordered one for pickup at my Target. Love it so much I ordered the lavender version — both my two new faves!” wrote a reviewer. “I. Am. Obsessed. I wish I bought in every color. So comfortable and cozy. Looks and feels high end!” confirmed another. And there are hundreds more five-star reviews where that came from.
