Corona | Coming Attractions

While there have been sneakers made that have been inspired by movies I don't think any film can claim to have an entire line created by a major shoe manufacturer. Adidas is getting prepared to release its line of sneakers and apparel inspired by the Star Wars movies and with a nicely times selection of a dozen shots showing what the end product will look like, suddenly I have three gifts that I want to give myself come January.

Adidas will release their Star Wars stuff in three waves: the Characters Pack, the Vehicles Pack and the Direct Pack.

• the Characters Pack "takes the most iconic moments and characters from the Star Wars saga and brings them to life across five sneakers, two short sleeve T-shirts and the Superstar Track Top"
• the Vehicles Pack  takes "inspiration from the well known vehicles and crafts from the Star Wars saga and translated them to our five most iconic adidas Originals sneakers and two key adidas Originals apparel models. Across these models we have paid homage to the distinguished features of airborne crafts and land based vehicles from both sides of the Force and executed them to appeal to both adidas and Star Wars fans alike"
• the Direct Pack include sneakers inspired by the one and only Darth Vader and the Imperial Stormtroopers. Plus, there's a mid-silhouette shoe that looks like it draws its inspiration from the Slave Leia costume seen in Return of the Jedi. Mrrrow.
  

These goodies start to go on sale in specialty shops and shoe stories next month. Me, I've got eyes on the orange Skywalker, the bad-ass Stormtrooper and the TIE Fighter hi-tops. The question I now face: can I bring myself to wear them or must I pick up two pairs each?
