Phrases I have never heard uttered: “You know, I would work out… if only there was a Star Wars sneaker. Until then, I’m afraid I just can’t do it. Hey, pass the Doritos.”

Well just because I haven’t overheard it, doesn’t mean it can’t ever happen.

Well, something wonderful has happened for those people clinging to that as their last excuse for avoiding physical fitness. Adidas recently rolled out a massive range of Star Wars-influenced kicks. They started appearing in-store in January. With multiple seasons on the table, the first collection is split into three packs — Characters, Vehicles & Direct. The collaboration is a perfect mix of Star Wars characters, scenes & vehicles with classic Adidas Originals shapes, like the Nizza-Hi, the Samba & the ZX Runner.

From X-Wing Sambas to Stormtrooper kicks & Skywalker sneakers, there’s truly something for everyone. There’s even a Princess Leia pair of basketball shoes for lovers of the bunned one. And who could say no to a Darth Vader track jacket or a hooded sweater with an Imperial soldier inked on the back?  The holographic Micropacer sneakers are insane too, but it seems like a dazzling gold pair of C3PO Nizza-Hi’s would have been a sure win…

What better way to get Star Wars fanboy to hit the gym than a shoe that makes him feel like part of the Rebel Alliance?  Check out an adidas Originals store in a galaxy near you.
