Here's your chance to wear a piece of "Star Wars" and still look current and cool - Adidas has just unveiled a limited edition sneaker inspired by the characters and themes of the iconic movie franchise.
"Riffing off the Adidas Originals' classic Superstar '80s model, consumers will be able to add Stormtrooper prints, exclusive Star Wars laces, gold or silver shell-toes and more," Mashable said. "Possibly the raddest of features: the Darth Vader and Stormtrooper molded backs are three-dimensional and look super badass."
The shoes have a $110-$120 price range and are good until supplies last only.
"Every mi star wars shoe is customizable-you start with a base-model Adidas casual sneaker, then pick the bunting you want using Adidas's customizer web-app," noted Wired's Michael Calore. "Choose from different colors, lace charms, Star Wars fabric graphics, and metallic treatments to the toe shell and the leather stripes."
The sportswear brand has also made "Star Wars"-themed apparel, with tees showing Stormtroopers and even a track jacket that has the image of green-skinned Yoda emblazoned on it. If you're more of a Darth Vader fan, there's another track jacket with the villain's image on it, too.
The "Star Wars" limited edition line has been created in anticipation of the release od "Episode VII: The Force Awakens" on December 18 this year. As such, it won't be surprising to find fans wearing these customizable footwear when the film drops in theaters later this year.
This is not the first time that Adidas made "Star Wars"-inspired footwear and apparel. The sports apparel brand had been including "Star Wars"-style products in the originals line dedicated to the long-running film franchise for years now. It had even created an ad with a "Star Wars" theme for the 2010 World Cup.
Needless to say, Adidas loves "Star Wars." Well, don't many of the rest of us in this planet do?
So, if you're bent on wearing your favorite cinematic saga literally on your sleeve (or shoes, for this matter), go and grab a pair right now before they disappear. And make sure you do it justice by wearing an outfit that highlights the beauty and quirkiness of these kicks. Like "Star Wars" apparel in Adidas' originals line, duh. If you want to get people's heads turning, make sure you add gold or silver toe caps to your custom pair.
