In a pop culture world full of massive franchises, from Spider-Man to John Wick and everywhere in between, one piece of IP has always stood above the rest, from movies and TV shows to theme park rides, breakfast cereals, and every possible form of toy you can imagine: Star Wars.
Luke, Leia, and Samba
In 2027, Disney is celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Star Wars franchise with more firepower than the Death Star. The half-century celebration is highlighted by the OG Star Wars film, what we now call A New Hope, returning to theaters in its original unedited cut in February, but in true Disney fashion, the year is going to feature more collabs than any one person could possibly cop, from Hasbro, LEGO, Aston Martin, Mars Candy, and, on the shoe side of things, adidas.
Keeping up the long partnership between Star Wars and adidas, the 50th anniversary collab hasn’t previewed any specific character-themed shoes yet. In a teaser video posted to social media, though, some distinctly adidas footprints on a sandy planet lead to a co-branded satchel with “CARGO FOUND” written on the front, with a “Limited 07/50” tag hanging off the top.
