Lululemon isn’t just for yoga anymore. The athleisure (this is a word?) brand’s clothing is quickly becoming less exercise wear and more a sign of a healthy and inspirational lifestyle —and with pieces being discontinued as quickly as they’re coming on to the market, the brand’s offerings are a reseller’s dream. Now you can buy a pair of shorts for $800!
The Cut reports that a great deal of shay backdoor reselling is being done on the internet, with Lululemon’s signature items being sold through Facebook and on eBay. While the brand doesn’t have a rule against buying in high volume and then reselling at staggering prices, it frowns upon the practice. At one point, resellers were even banned, but the brand has done away with the policy. And with resellers back in the game, Lululemon has skyrocketed to the top of the charts.
