“Never heard of this. Some new fad?”
Yup…a NEW fad….its called yoga and a publicly traded firm called Lululemon (NYSE: LULU) sells this newfangled lvush called “yogapants”. They became the official uniform of millions of women working from home during the Covid Pandemic since they didn’t show up on Zoom calls with clients. When our firm (and virtually all other law firms, banks etc.) sent around memos to their professional staff back in June ordering everyone back to the office 4 days/week after Labor Day, they included a special reminder that lululemon hoisen were NOT considered proper professional attire (even on casual Fridays). They have also become popular among some segments of the frum tzibur when worn as leggings under a tzinisusdike skirt. I suspect the OP is struggling to find a new subject for trolling that is not as mindless as most of the other “bein hazmanim” missives we have been suffering through the past few weeks.
