'Try Before You Buy:' Scuba hoodies from lululemon, Amazon and more

WATCH: The best sweatshirts to 'Try Before You Buy'

When a piece of clothing goes viral on TikTok and becomes a wardrobe staple, you know it's worth a closer look. Enter the lululemon Scuba Half-Zip, the ultra-popular, high-neck cropped pullover that's taken social media (and closets) by storm.

But with a $118 price tag (currently on sale for $89), it begs the question: Are there more affordable versions that deliver the same cozy, stylish vibe?

For this edition of "Try Before You Buy," "GMA" correspondent Becky Worley teamed up with brand marketing manager Sherian James and stay-at-home mom Aliyah Norales to put four highly rated half-zips to the test, from the original lululemon to budget-friendly options at Abercrombie, Old Navy and Amazon.

Curious which ones are worth your money? Check out all the picks below!
