Update - the whole APLxlululemon collection. The price is between $160-280 (this is Canadian info so might be a bit cheaper in the US). Some have cashmere in them. There is no lululemon logo on them. Certain stores will act as a showroom where you can try on models and sizes and the store will order for you. If you know your APL size the store will take a phone order.
Update II - There are no special lululemon colors or patterns. APL is basically just renting space inside lululemon stores and selling their regular line. BFD.
New sneak peak of the lululemon APL shoes. This comes from the Georgetown store. There are also solid black ones, as spotted on Instagram:

did tehy say how much they are going for? I wonder when we will see them? I would love a solid black pair. This is the first time I have been excited in a while about a new lulu item.
They look pretty average to me.
You can get these APL sneakers from Amazon, Bandier, and other websites. There isn't anything special about these sneakers and they are not lululemon sneakers.
Love it! Super exciting. I would love the salt & pepper pair.
$140-$180
The fug is real.
There seem to be a few special colour versions but I agree, overall they seem pretty mundane. I'm a hardcore runner who has run in every running shoe so I'll be sticking to Mizuno for running and Adidas Ultra Boost and others for style/everyday (which I could run in, too).
I bet you money the LLL logo is going to be coming to some of these shoes at some point. APL probably doesn't want to (unless LLL buys APL) but clearly some people are driven by having the logo on the shoe.
Wonder if sweat collective discount applies?
lol so it's an APL shoe with a lululemon tag? Not much of a colab in my opinion
I have been checking the APL site since LLA's prior post. They are sold out in women's and men's in any style color I wanted. Very bummed.
@SW24 - It's worse than that - there are NO special colors or patterns. APL just set up shop inside lululemon stores. Totally lame.
I'm interested to know as well...
I find this arrangement to be so lame. As best as I can tell, this sneaker's chief selling point is that it is on Oprah's list of favorite things. Easy pass.
Is APL staffing its own sales associates in the lululemon stores that carry the line? Or is it relying on lululemon educators, many of whom don't seem to know much at all about lululemon apparel, to fit customers and sell the shoes?
Agree with the previous post... these are so average and I would never shell out that kind of money on a pair of 'athletic' shoes that I wouldn't run long distances in. I have zero FOMO with these. Nothing special at all about them IMHO. Congrats to those who do love them though and scored themselves a pair. :)
Totally lame.

I have them and they are unlike any other running shoe I have ever owned. There is an inner sock that feels almost neoprene and wraps the whole foot and ankle. Not sure what the laces are for since the inner sleeve holds the shoe secure on the foot.
