Lulumon founder Chip Wilson's comment that his clothing brand isn't a good fit for all women has upset some consumers

The Canadian founder of yoga apparel brand Lululemon appears to have invented a new yoga move: Open mouth, insert foot, reports CBC's Stephanie Matteis.

In response to consumer complaints about a declining quality in Lululemon stretch pants, Chip Wilson told Bloomberg TV: "Quite frankly, some women's bodies actually don't work for itthe rubbing through the thighs, how much pressure is there?"
