Our apparel store is built with configurable products. We'd like to create a Catalog Price Rule that targets only specific variants of a configurable product. For example, all 'Guys' shirts.
It doesn't appear that this is possible out of the box with Magento unless I'm missing something. Has anyone found a way to do something like this just using Mage configuration?

I think the problem is not in the rule conditions itself. It's in the way prices are displayed and calculated by Magento for configurable products. The price of the configurable product is always leading unless you specify different price on the Associated Products tab. If you use a grouped product this would become possible, because they rely more on the simple product. But this is of course a completely different approach and probably not what you want in an Apparel store.
