On the heels of the highly-publicized recall of Lululemon
yoga pants, some women say the company is asking them to bend over in front
of in-store sales associates.
To determine if their yoga pants are "too sheer," obviously.
Last week, the yoga-inspired athletic company had to recall 17 percent
of the pants (sold for roughly $100 each) bought between March 1 and March 8.
The reason? Their yoga pants' fabric was too see-through, inspiring a
wave of jokes across the Internet and whiplash among men across North America.
The company posted on its blog:
"At the beginning of March, Lululemon
stores and ecommerce site received some black luon women's bottoms that didn't
meet our high standards."
"The materials used were the same but the coverage was not,
resulting in increased sheerness. We want you to Down Dog and Crow with
confidence."
"We felt these pants didn't measure up."
For unknown reasons, the company wouldn't disclose which pants were
affected by the glitch, explaining only their relationship with manufacturer
Eclat Textile:
"The items affected are certain styles of women's bottoms in our
signature black Luon fabric" and that they "have not yet determined
the cause of the sheerness."
