Star Wars Fans, Brace Yourselves For Millennium Falcon-Inspired Kicks
With Star Wars licensing having resulted in adorable apparel like R2-D2 backpacks and even slick-looking Marc Ecko hoodies, it should come as no surprise that in January, you'll be able to pick up Adidas sneakers inspired by the popular sci-fi franchise.
For the first Spring/Summer 2010 collaboration, Adidas Originals and Lucasfilm Ltd. worked together to design high tops and sneakers reinterpreted to include character graphics on the shoe tongue and individualized colorways that pay homage to popular characters and costumes. So soon enough, options will include self-explanatory styles like 'Death Star,' 'Yoda,' 'Storm Trooper,' and 'Luke Skywalker,' among others.
Though we're not huge fans of the over-the-top Princess Leia sneakers shown above -- gold and mauve made for a smokin' brass bikini in 'Return of the Jedi,' but on sneakers, they're pretty heinous -- we actually wouldn't mind running around in a pair of the gray-on-white Millennium Falcons or X Wings, seen after the jump.
