Girls don't have to be fit... those pants can do miracles for girls who are not in perfect shape... but definitely fat girls should not wear it. Its like seeing a big fat guy in compression under armour... not cool.

I'm going in an hour

Is there a line up?

No idea, I'm working now. All I know is that the parking lot is pretty full.

that sale is ridiculous
made me late for work with all the traffic, and some of the girls from my office went to it and came back because the line up went from the front door of the round up centre, all the way around the building and back up the tracks. or something like that.

Gave me an idea. With all the Lululemon bashing going on....would it be a bad idea to work there? I'm thinking having to help a bunch of girls fit into these super tight clothes might not be a bad idea.....

FireFly · 01-24-2008, 10:54 AM

Apparently there's a line-up to get into the park... just ridiculous.

For a guy who claims to be an Usher fan...I am certainly not surprised to see the creation of this thread...

I keed I keed

it's actually the only store I don't mind going into while shopping with the wife. The only place where it is pretty much expected of you to look at asses and not get in trouble for it

It's been a long time since I've taken a marketing class, but when a company has a liquidation sale at a stadium, isn't that usually a bad sign?

Not at all. Pants priced at $110, are now on "Sale" for $85. Double the sales and you make even more money!!

And for the men who knock it, I just checked their website, and the stuff that isn't cheesy is HOT.

Whats your definition of hot though, tighter fitting pants? I guess it depends on the girl. Cuz when I tried mine on that I got from Christmas, my girlfriend laughed at me and made me promise never to wear them again(which wasnt a tough sell).

My wife likes men with fitted pants. I prefer to leave a bit more to the imagination so ladies might at least give me the benefit of the doubt...

just a smidge tight in the buttocks and then looser on the rest of the leg. A man in tights is not hot. A man in a boot cut lycra pant is not hot. A man in a nice fitting workout pant thats snug in the bum = hot.

Personally, I've never been very big into tight pants, or really any kind of pants when exercising. Shorts all the way.

I saw nothing on the Lululemon website that impressed me, especially for the lunatic pricing. To me, its a women's athletic line and that's great. I think Under Armour and Nike in particular, as well as Adidas, Puma, Kappa and Reebok do a pretty good job for men without breaking the bank for essentially a stretchy cotton t-shirt.

Agreed.

A little OT, but isn't Lululemon actually owned by Nike now?

RougeUnderoos · 01-24-2008, 02:51 PM

Does this stuff have that logo visible? No matter which way you slice it, that's a girly label and if I see it I'd think "he's wearing girl's clothes".

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Nope, "Advent International" or some company like that bought just under 50%.

If Nike did, you'd be seeing their technology incorporated into their NikeFit line for a fraction of the cost.

Oh yeah, the logo is pretty front and centre on the shirts, and either on the top of the ass or on the leg for the guys.

I think the same thing too.

That's too bad, because I just noticed on their website a product that sounds like something I might want to own -- the "Hidden Tiger" pants. Ha ha ha.
