Finally! This week's what we love is up. Next week is the first week of the official fall season for lululemon, so I'm sure things are a bit crazy up at HQ.

She also says she'll try to add some more pieces Tuesday! At any rate, let's jump into the ...

For those who don't know, the metcons are Nike's answer to the cross-training (read: CrossFit) shoe, meant to directly challenge Reebok's nanos.
