New Straight Up Pants in Giant Herringbone and Heathered Deep Coal.
The Parallel Stripe Runday crops are back. Also new are white Parallel Stripe and Ultra Violet waistbanded ones.
The sherpa-lined Run With Me Ear Warmers were uploaded today. I ordered the Coco Pique version.
The Inspire Tight IIs were uploaded. They haven't been out for three years.
New waistband on the brushed Speed Tights. I really like it.
Canada got a Ghost Fleecy Keen jacket.
The Coco Pique Vinyasas are back again. I got one last time they were out.
Canada also got the reflective Snapshot Crew.
An insulated Feeling Frosty Softshell was uploaded.
The US got the black and the white/slate pique Think Fast hoodies.
The US also got the pique Think Fast Pullovers. I am debating ordering the black or taking my chances of my store having this for me to try on.
Frosty Run Gloves with a softshell back and rulu palm.
Nearly missed these - Canada got the Giant Houndstooth Dip Dye Wunder Under Pants.
Did you order anything?

So much black, grey and various shades in between. How about some colors please?
LLA, how could you neglect the Party Onesie? Come on! ;)
Lol, Holly. I am doing my best to ignore it. ;-)
On first look, I thought those pink running gloves were rubber gloves for washing dishes.
Nice, Base Runner is back! I see it didn't get uploaded to the Canadian side today. I will keep an eye out as I'll be happy to have another in black. I already have the black herringbone one from last year and it is awesome.
Did Canada get the Slate Groove Pants or did I miss them?
Can I ask whether the High Times pant are cyclical or a more core item? I absolutely adore them but am too new to the brand to know if a few different colours are released each year, or if this deluge of them might not be repeated for 2-3 years (in which case I'd feel better about having bought quite a few). Thanks! :)
Wish they had some colours! Didn't see anything today.. a bit disappointed! Canada had a few new items in WMTM, like the light RULU vinyasa's, but don't really care for them. Very excited about the new Boolux/Tencel items that are in Britt's picks for next week.. gotta save until then. LOL
Any word on if U.S. is getting replenishment of the Fleecy Keen?
@ anon 7:41 pm - I think if they are successful they have a good chance of becoming a core item, like Skinny Will pants. From what I am reading on the boards people really like the High Times pants and prefer them to Wunder Under Roll Downs. I believe right now they are more of a seasonal item, but I could be wrong. If any insiders know and can comment that would be great. It seems like the High Times are a big hit.
@L - I don't know. I was surprised to see the ghost Fleecy Keen show up on the Canadian side tonight. I would not be on them coming back, though.
Which one is better in terms of the material and style? The base runner half zip or the think fast PO? I still have my tag on the PO because I think the collar and the chest area look kinda weird on me and I missed the base runner last year (?) Need some input please ladies! TIA!
@ anon 8:56 pm - If you are busty the Think Fast PO is better for you. That horizontal line on the Base Runner PO hits me just below the nipples. I also am not a fan of the priest-like collar on the Base Runner. However, the ed at my store yesterday had on a light herringbone BR PO and it looked great on her. The BR is a more fitted PO than the TF. The BR also has a curved hem which I don't care for. The BR has the kangaroo pocket in the front which adds a little bulk in the tummy but also hides muffin lines. Those pockets are also very handy. It's a tough call because there are pros and cons of each design. My biggest pet peaves with the BR was the weird neck, which isn't as obvious in the solid black, and the curved hem. I never bought a BR last year but I've bought three Think Fast POs this year. However, they've all been in textured fabrics. If the Think Fast had only come out in regular rulu I probably would not have bought them. Like you said, the collar is a bit floppy.
I picked up the coco piqué vinyasa because I missed it last time.
I don’t have any issues with the Base Runner pullover. I love this shirt. I have a small bust and am a size 4. I normally hate kangaroo pockets but even with it this shirt is still fitted and flattering on me. The zip pocket in the back is the best. I love the high neck (and I have a long neck) because this shirt truly keeps you warm when you zip up whereas the Think Fast pullover the neck is mostly just for looks. I wear the BR for running and for casual wear and I always get compliments (herringbone one). It's the shirt I reach for most. I tried the Think Fast po in store but basically went: this can wait for markdown.
Did Canada really get the Fleecy Keen? It's gone now and things haven't been selling out as quickly as they used to.
Hmm, likelihood of Lulu jerking around customers by only offering 15 of a coveted item versus Lulu's tragic IT area screwing up and posting "phantom" items that were literally sold out years earlier ... It's a toss up.
@LLA - thanks! I hope the High Times become a core piece. They're a perfect fit, nicely opaque and beyond comfortable, but I'd love more dark options (a charcoal texture fabric would be great. :)
Thanks for the comparison of the BR and TF from another reader. Can you compare the High Times pants and WU roll downs. Why are women on the boards preferring the High Times? I was going to buy a pair of roll downs but after reading your comment I've paused to question the decision. All insights very welcome.
Do you think Canada will be getting the baserunner? I have a bad feeling that only US will get that and only Canada got the return of the gratitude wrap...hope not though.
the think fast PO works better for me as well, and I am busty. I have the base runner from last season and I still like it but the collar as LLA is kind of funky.

@ anon 4:42 am - I agree, the high neck is really nice on the Base Runner. And I always prefer a small of the back zip pocket. I just didn't love the two-tone look when it was zipped up on some of the colors, how asymmetric it is when unzipped, the curved hem, and the lack of cuffins. I feel all $98 run pullovers should have cuffins. Those were my biggest objections to that pullover.
Went to the store and bought Giant Herringbone HT pants. They are a little more snug than say new textured stripe ones. I also tried Heathered Herringbone, the white ones. They are so soft and beautiful!! But I guess you have to be at least 5'6" and have long legs for pull those off. I'm 5'2" and didn't want my tights to look bigger than they are. Ended up buying Giant herringbones, coco pique vinyasa and waiting for Cabin Yogi LS next week :)
The High Times rise is higher--around and inch (length from crotch to waist seam). The seam on those hits me at a better place and aren't quite as low rise if I want to wear them rolled down. I tend to want to pull up the roll downs, creating a 'situation' in the crotch area, but I tend to do that when I wear reg wu's.
I got the herringbone Base Runner. I have the blue color from last year and just love it.
However - I read on another blog that the Base Runners are left over from last year. Could this possibly be true? Why would they keep them sitting around for a year? I think it would be kind of strange to buy something new that is already a year old!
I am anon 8:56pm. Thank you so very much for those who commented on the Base runner vs Think fast PO! <3
I got Snakeskin inspires from the last upload and wore them today for my Bodypump class. They are amazing!! Very flattering.
The snapshot crew print looks like The Humane Society of the US's logo! I keep trying to find animals or shapes within the crew ;)
I need to know when the actual uploads are. Can anyone share specifics please? I need a gratitude wrap!!
