The Heathered Mojave Tan Stride is in the Stores. This is from a Massachusetts store.
More of the Noir line, including the first photos of the shorts. I just found out the price on the pant - $118. The bra is $52 and the dress is $108.
A cute series of the photos with the Cadet Steep Stripe Forme and the OK High shorts.

Are these tts or size up? I missed out on these when they were originally out :(
I think a lot of people tended to size down in them. I never bought one but that is what I recall.
I really like the Stride!! Can anyone comment on the size? Is it a scuba size or more like a nice asana size? TIA!
Love the entire Noir collection!! Wish I could afford everything... Maybe just the bra. Thanks for posting.
The stride fabric looks so thin?
10:51 I thought the same. is it luon light?

My old strides are size 4 and I take a 6 in scuba, 4 in CRB and 6 in build-in bra tops and bra's.
So I got into my store to try on the pants and the dress of the Noir line ... my thoughts and opinions are (for what they are worth):
The pants are wayyyyy overpriced for the slinky sorta wrinkly material that they are. I can buy Ralph Lauren wool pants for that price. I even exclaimed out loud when I saw the price tag and the girls in the store laughed! Now on to the fit ... I found them to be true to size. The fit is nice and sleek, if money is no object for you. I am a sucker for palazzo pants. I will have to stick to my VS linen palazzos for now. I know these pants probably will not make it to markdown, but maybe I will get lucky.
The dress is WAYYYYYYY better fitting that the Refresher Racer dress. I find that it accentuated my curves a lot better, probably because of those side seams. I also like the light luon over the full luon. This dress feels much more breathable and light. I also LOVE the way you can flip it. This dress (and one for my mama) came home with me!
I am 5'5" and do not think that I will be getting it hemmed. I think the midi length is alright. I will probably wear it with some dressy gladiators.
Also, if you are close to stores, there are markdowns on the Get It On line. I didn't like anything in it, so I left them. Whoever said she got the Refresher Racer for $59, I believe it.

The stride is most similar to the nice asana. It's not like either the define or scuba. Same weight as the nice asana. This is not a heavy jacket, but it is one of my favs for layering over leggings. I did size down from my lulu define/forme size. Glad to see it back :-)
I have an In Stride and Stride from years' past and I sized down in both. Normally a 4 in everything, but for a fitted look purchased a 2. 5 ft, 100 lbs, 32-25-33. Hope that helps. oh, and I love both styles.
$108 for that plain black dress??? That is crazy. If you were at the mall and walked by a store other than lululemon you wouldn't even take a second glance at the dress let alone fork over $108.
I love the Stride Jacket especially with wunder unders however the colors they are making in them this time around are SO BORING!!! :-(
The Noir bra sold out like crazy in my new nearby store (it's an "A" allocation store but doesn't tend to be too popular), so I think that will be a hot hit on the resell boards. It does look great on.
The pants have two problems 1.) ugly price 2.) ugly pants.
Thanks for all of the Stride sizing feedback! Looks like I'll be sizing down from my scuba size if the strides are uploaded tonight :)
The only item I like for certain in the noir line would be the bra. I MAY want the shorts but would rather try them on in store (if any of my stores even GET this line). I don't like the high waisted pants at all. I'm also quite tired of the Wee Space stuff now.
Can anyone advise if the cadet stripe forme jacket is thicker than the heather light gray jacket? I bought the gray but disappointed with how light weight it is compared to my herring bone one.
I found the Stride jacket to fit a roomy TTS. I am really lean and small (5'3", size 0-2 in street clothes, size 4 in LLL), and I usually have to size up to a 6 in jackets or LS Swiftlies because I need room in the biceps and shoulders. (thanks, crossfit!) This is one of the few LLL jackets that I could wear in my regular size- it's cut generously through the upper arms and back, but still fitted through the midsection and hip. I'm thrilled to see this jacket back- it was one of my favorites. I had a bright red Stride a few years ago, and I felt like Little Red Riding Hood when I wore it (in a good, not-weird way.) Then I left it in the rental car on a holiday, and I never saw it again. :( Hope they come out with some vibrant colors....I never saw that red again after my Stride jacket.
Can anyone report if the fabric and quality is similar to the pre-2011 versions?
THANKS :)
On the In Stride, I am a size 4 and it is perfectly fitted, not tight. I have the old luon and it has held up beautifully - looks brand new after many washes and wears. I am either a 4 or 6 in LLL jackets depending on the jacket. I am a 4 in CRBs. I wear a consistent size 4 in all bottoms.
Noir pants, $118 lol. You can keep it.
Jail bait stripes pattern: I do not get this at all. Why does LLL keep making these jail baity striped items. They've done this for the past couple of years. Is it because stripes like this are cheapest to manufacture? They're ugly and again, look like prison garb. I cringe when I see people wear them (or those clown stripe jackets from last year or so) because wow if you paid full price. But more than likely settled for them from wmtm or got them from an outlet.
