Vancouver Yoga Pants To Blame?

MSN created a list of the Worst-Dressed Cities In The World. Guess who made #3 on the list? That’s right, beautiful Vancouver, BC. The offending reason being that Vancouver is the birthplace of Lululemon Athletica yoga pants – although they don’t specify the company outright, they do allude the famous brand name.

Here’s an excerpt:

There is one reason, and one reason only, why we’ve decided to include Vancouver on this list of the sartorially damned: yoga pants. We blame you, Vancouver, birthplace of a certain, insanely popular yoga gear brand which will go unnamed, for spawning a street trend dreaded by all women with wobbly bits and fat deposits in the wrong places. Really, what gives with the whole wearing of bum hugging workout gear to every other place except the gym? On behalf of women with hips and thighs everywhere, who like their pants to have buttons and zippers thank you very much, and who are of the opinion that yoga pants are a ruse worn by lazy pseudo-fashionistas, we beseech you: unless you plan to do a downward dog within the hour, spare us the yoga pants and put on some real trousers.

What do you think of this list, and the fact that Vancouver’s on it? Let us know in the comments below!

Vancouver’s Public Myth Activewear And Yoga Apparel

The Vancouver-based label, Public Myth, was created a few years ago by former personal trainer/fitnesswear sales rep, Kerry Pollock. Public Myth is a little different from other activewear apparel lines – it takes inspiration from the fashion and Rock ‘n Roll scene.

Their new, luxurious eco-friendly bamboo collection includes pocket pants, capris, shorts and hoodies. And PM’s Supplex collection has a wide variety of moisture wicking and slimming yoga apparel – everything from hot yoga booty shorts to tanks, yoga pants and capris, jackets, and leggings.

You can find Public Myth apparel on their website PublicMyth.com as well as DNZ Jewellery & Clothing at 2004 West 4th Ave. in Kits, and at various locations of Reflex stores around Vancouver.
