Luke Skywalker Stan Smiths from Adidas, Available July 23rd

There is another…. The Adidas Star Wars collaboration continues with Luke Skywalker inspired Stan Smith trainers to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, in a streamlined blue and white colourway.

The blue reflects the color of Skywalker’s lightsaber and the white looks to be a call out for Cloud City, the place where Skywalker finally finds out his true connection to Darth Vader. Playing upon that scene is the unforgettable yell, “Nooooo!!!” which happens after Skywalker and Vader face-off and the reveal unfolds. That cry is spelled out on the outsoles of the shoes.

Additionally, the insoles also have a film still of Skywalker alongside the franchise’s logo and the sneaker brand’s insignia. Those who purchase the shoes will get pins of R2d2, Yoda, an X-Wing and a lightsaber. Ultimately, the sneaker design is as clean as it gets for a sci-fi-inspired silhouette but true fans should enjoy the collectible aspect of the delivery — the galaxy-printed box and Star Wars lace doubraes included.

The Adidas Stan Smith Luke Skywalker shoe retails for $120 USD and will be released on Thursday, July 23rd at 10am EDT (7am PST and 3pm BST) on Adidas’ official site — happy hunting!
