The Star Wars x adidas Originals collection continues to push the envelope in that space where streetsmart aesthetics meet Saga symbolism and this latest release is among the best representations of its character muse yet. The Star Wars x adidas ZX 8000 ‘Emperor’ is an homage to the evil Palpatine and his Force lightning, the electrified blue midsoles giving way to a glow in the dark bottom while the rest is done in clean black nubuck. A much prettier shoe than the man for whom they’re named, the Emperor ZX 8000s are available now at select Three Stripes dealers like Schuh-You.
