In Lululemon Athletica Inc.’s quest to get more guys to buy its clothing, the company is focusing on a very specific area of men’s comfort.
The company has made inroads with a product called ABC pants, Chief Executive Officer Laurent Potdevin said Thursday on a conference call. ABC, short for “anti-ball crushing,” refers to a design that “gives you and the family jewels room to breathe,” Lululemon says on its website. The pants helped drive a 16 percent increase in same-store sales last quarter in the men’s business, Potdevin said.
