Lululemon Sheer Yoga Pants Back
The ‘Sheergate’ story is back. Fitness outfitter Lululemon Athletica Inc. is re-releasing the black luon yoga pants pulled from the racks earlier this season for being see-through. The original mishap was pretty problematic for the company, as pants accounted for 17% of their total sales, according to the LA Times. (Here is the story to refresh your memory: Quick! Cover Your Downward Facing Dog!)
Fear not yoga enthusiasts! The company has added extra material over the bum and established a sheer-o-meter test before their products come to the floor.

I wish I could afford a pair! I could buy 5 pairs of workout pants for what one of those would cost me!
Hey – I wonder if they are selling the recalled pants on Ebay or something? I bet those would have a discount – lol!
Thanks. Needed that smile today.

Nice!!
I see someone’s . . . Wait, I thought we were going bare under there!
AAAHHH! Now there’s a Kodak moment!
I will abstain from commenting on the see-through yoga pants. On the other hand, as a healthy heterosexual male I have to say that Lululemon cycling shorts for women are a work of art! One of the young ladies I ride with during the summer wears them and they are certainly worth the extra cost. I also have to say that I have a wonderful wife who doesn’t mind me riding with female cyclists (my wife took one look at the young woman I was riding with and knew that no one who looks like her is going to be interested in someone who looks like me).
LOL- You’re so funny!
I am so disappointed by this! I have so many pairs of lululemons and I am starting to get skeptical of all of them!!! It’s not a good feeling. That company has been known for the quality of their materials – they need to NOT be putting crap out on their shelves!
I love the brand too. Hopefully their more extensive testing will help ensure the quality of their pants.
