More Photos of the New Special Edition CRB with Sheer Luon

We recently saw this special edition Cool Racerback pop up in an Australian product alert and speculated that the bottom portion may be made of sheer luon. Here are a couple more photos that make me think I am right:

The text to this photo said the back panel is made of a super lightweight material.

I thought this photo might be one of the front, showing the front is also made of sheer luon, but there are vertical seams running down the front and I don't see any vertical seams in the web model photo. I can't place what this tank is. It looks like it might be made of sheer luon or some sort of heathered flush luon. Any ideas?

However, here is a another photo of the CRB and front doesn't look like it's made of Sheer Luon.

I think maybe just the lower back of the CRB is sheer luon. And the photo of the front with the fanny pack looks more like a Swiftly to me.

I thought it was a swiftly, too, but the seams aren't in the right place for one.

Just got back from Newport Beach. Took a pic of CRBs and was told no pics allowed. Is that normal? Anyway, they had Lagoon and Sen Pink if anyone is looking for those colors.

Lulu Addict, about a week or two ago, you posted a picture of lady wearing a blue define jacket with an ikat collar that i thought was really cute. Do you know when the stores or website will have this?? Thanks :)

Is it just me, or is that a Margarita yoga mat on the wall? *Might just be wishful thinking* I would grab this top in Sprinkler though, liking the look

Hey all!!! I am lululemon educator and just came across your fabulous website and will check on here more frequently to help answer some questions. We have not recieved this at our store yet so i am unable to confirm or deny whether the front is sheer luon but the back i'm almost 100% is..I can't tell by looking at.
About the pictures being taken in the store unfortunately we can ask for photos not to be taken but the reason is because of legal rights and people trying to imitate lulu products.

correction*- I mean't I can't tell by looking at the front of the picture provided. I don't know how my word's somehow got deleted hehe ;-)

Sorry for the rant, but now that phone sales have ended, I'm slightly irked by the folks that order online when they have a store with the same stuff in it nearby. Especially when they order multiple sizes, only to return in-store.
Oh the woes of a lulu addict....
Rant over :)

With phone sales ended, you would think there will be more stock allocated to the online store but it doesn't seem so. Does everyone agree? Like the No Limits, Solace Jacket and Black Training Cap were all gone in less than 24 hours. A limit of the same item should really be enforced on the web site.

Not all items that are on-line are available at the stores. I have missed out on several items I waited to buy at the stores, but they never came in.

Any word on what colors the CRB will come in?

Anonymous said...

Zanna, I thought same thing. That would make sense, right? My guess is they probably want to continue limiting supplies which will drive demand up. The pics policy - is this a new rule or one that hasn't been enforced as much? It'll be a bummer not to see as many store pics on the blogs.

lulurunner said...

The picuture thing depends on the particular store and management some stores are a little more serious about following it then others but to answer your question it is not new.
In reference to the new CRB colors I am not able to disclose new colors because it could cost me my job which I love but what I can say is definately if you have a local store nearby and you have facebook which most of the world does like one of the lululemons in your area or another area because sometimes they drop hints ;-)

I received a product notice for the Run: Pace Setter pullover in the CSS and the static black that we've seen but the picture is one of the newer colors, is called Snow or Snow Cone, I can't remember but it's the pale Lilac.

@ anon 1:16 pm - Interesting about the photo policy in the stores. I always take my photos in the changing room. I often take photos of myself in different tanks/pants/etc. when I'm trying them on to help figure out which one looks better. However, I do turn the sound on my phone off 'cause I don't want people to know I'm taking photos of myself.

@ Laurie - One reason I order on-line is that is always a crap shoot as to whether something I really want will be in the store when I visit it. Also, the Flush No Limit was not yet in the store when I ordered it yesterday.

@ Zanna - I would think they'd divert the GEC stock to the on-line store to beef up supply. I totally agree there should definitely be a limit on the number of items you can order.

@Anon 3:36 - Don't worry about the pics on the blogs. We get most of our pics from the stores themselves. Also, I take mine in the dressing room and I can tell Lulumum does the same. I don't know about Lulumum but at least one of the stores I frequent knows I write this blog so I don't think they'd give me an issue about taking a photo of something but like I said, I take photos in the dressing room. Lululemon really embraces social media so I think they like the blogs (most of the time ;-) ).

@ Luvlulu - the lilac snow pace setter is gorgeous - thanks for the link!

LuluAddict said...

@ Stephanie - the Sprinkler Define with the Ikat collar was from the Hong Store. I don't know when we'll get it, but I would think pretty soon. Definitely in the next week or two since Lulu likes to cycle the colors pretty quickly.

Just got back from Newport Beach....

Were the lagoon and senorita pink crbs the ones with the mesh in the back, the scrunch crbs or regular ones?

@6:28 AM They're just the regular ones.

Thank you :)
