Now that he’s no longer with Lululemon, ex-CEO Chip Wilson is deep into the business of his new store, Kit and Ace. Still, he can’t help being critical of his old company.

Years ago (or perhaps just months ago) Fabletics commercials were just footage of Kate Hudson laughing about something and doing yoga outdoors.

Ever since the fateful day two years ago when Lululemon founder Chip Wilson uttered a slew of idiotic comments (including one being about his yoga pants “not working for some women’s bodies), he has kept mum on his controversial statements—until now.

Lululemon, hawker of overpriced yoga pants that pill because you're fat, hasn't been performing financially well as of late. Between a class action lawsuit and a strict return policy, Lululemon seems like a company that can't dig its way out of its problems. Indeed, they suffered an eight percent profit drop in the…
Lululemon isn't just for yoga anymore.
