Fresh new kicks

So one day while searching the internet for bad-ass sneakers, I saw a set of original sneakers; sneakers that can make the biggest star wars geek scream; sneakers that make shoe-a-holics salivate while thinking "I want those." If you're both a Star Wars fan and someone who loves sneakers, you better check your pulse because you've officially entered nerd footwear heaven. These amazingly awesome footwear were brought to us by Adidas for the Originality campaign, with the title “Street Where Originality Lives.”


here's the promo video with the remixed imperial march done by a guy named Matlaf:

This new campaign features the usual of artists, icons and athletes which involves not only sneakers but street apparel as well. Back to the shoes, though... they're separated by several different "packs:" there's the characters pack - which take memorable moments from the Star Wars movie saga and allowed to achieve its own life on a different type of canvas across five different sneakers, there are the vehicles pack that are inspired by the well-known vehicles and machines spread across five of the best sneakers so far that will satisfy the hunger of nerds and shoe-a-philes on both sides of the force, then finally the direct pack which features the princess leia kicks and darth vader and storm troopers.

and these are just my personal favourites from the characters pack:


these are the tie fighter's from the vehicles pack:
these are the AT-AT's from the vehicles pack:



these are darth vader's from the direct pack(I think):






these x-wings are from the vehicles pack:





these are skywalkers from the characters pack:






these are the Leia's from the direct pack:
