Is AYBL Only Online?

If you’ve shopped AYBL before, you’ve probably noticed the clean website, fast delivery, and influencer promotions — but no physical stores.
As someone working in the yoga and athleisure manufacturing industry, I’ve studied AYBL’s model closely. Here’s the truth about whether AYBL is only online and why it works so well.

Quick Answer

Yes, AYBL is primarily an online-only brand.
It sells through its official website and social media channels, shipping globally from the UK.
There are no permanent retail stores — only occasional pop-up events or limited collaborations.

This direct-to-consumer (DTC) model lets AYBL keep prices lower while maintaining quality and control over its brand image.


AYBL’s Online-Only Business Model

AYBL operates entirely online — a strategy similar to other UK fitness giants like Gymshark.
Their model looks like this:

Channel Function Example
Official Website (aybl.com) Main sales platform Global eCommerce
Instagram & TikTok Marketing & community engagement Influencer campaigns
Email Marketing Customer retention Early access to drops
Pop-up Shops (Occasional) Brand experience Temporary UK/Europe events

By cutting out middlemen and physical retail costs, AYBL offers premium design at mid-range pricing.


Why AYBL Chooses to Stay Digital

There are clear advantages to AYBL’s digital-first strategy:

  • Cost efficiency – No store rent or overhead, which keeps leggings under £60.
  • Scalability – Easy to sell globally from one platform.
  • Customer insights – Online data helps refine designs and fit faster.
  • Community-driven growth – Digital marketing builds loyal, engaged audiences faster than traditional ads.

From my experience in apparel manufacturing, this setup allows AYBL to launch and test new styles rapidly — something slower retail brands can’t do.


Does AYBL Have Physical Stores or Pop-Ups?

Currently, AYBL doesn’t have any permanent stores in the UK, US, or Europe.
However, it occasionally runs short-term pop-up events in collaboration with gyms or influencers.

These pop-ups are designed to:

  • Introduce new collections
  • Strengthen community engagement
  • Offer customers a “touch-and-try” experience

While it’s still primarily digital, this hybrid approach helps keep the brand personal and experiential.


AYBL vs Brands With Retail Stores

Brand Retail Presence Primary Model Price Range
AYBL Online-only DTC eCommerce £30–£60
Lululemon 600+ global stores Retail + online £80–£120
Alo Yoga 40+ stores worldwide Retail + digital £90–£130
Gymshark Limited flagships Mostly online £40–£80

This shows that AYBL positions itself as a digital-native challenger brand — focusing on online convenience, not physical luxury.


Shopping Tips for Online Buyers

If you’re ordering from AYBL for the first time:

  • Check size guides carefully, as sizing is based on UK standards.
  • Take advantage of discount drops and bundles via newsletters.
  • Join AYBL’s social channels for restock updates.
  • Compare fits with similar leggings from Gymshark or Lululemon before choosing your size.

For customers who value ease, comfort, and global access, AYBL’s online model is a win.
