Jan 20 2010Awesome: First Star Wars Adidas Commercial
For those of you not in the know, Adidas is dropping a line of Star Wars sneakers, shirts and hoodies this year that promises to be ultra dope. I've been getting the tip forever, but I keep getting too drunk and forgetting to post it. It's worth your while to go HERE, HERE or HERE to see what all they have to offer, then watch this commercial and get super stoked about it. Personally, I want the AT-AT sneakers. FOR STOMPING REBEL SCUM! You hear that, Skywalker? And don't you even think about tying my laces together.
Youtube
and
Youtube (another, much shorter commercial that's not as good but does feature Vader firing the Death Star at earth)
Thanks to Donna, emerica, Ali, Tiffany, Miss Bowser, LSDiesel, Blastphemer, Troy, Steve, sluggerknuckles, Ben, Daniel, Spikey DaPikey, Patrick, sham, Jazzman, joe the human beatbox, fire in my hole, Alice, mavis, kevin and Conner, who know quality footwear when they see it. What do you think of these kicks, guys? They're called Wheelies. Gonna be huge.

Why is Daft Punk pictured at the end? random...
6. r. james - January 20, 2010 1:39 PM
Daft Punk is at the end because they did the music in the ad.
7. Smee - January 20, 2010 1:40 PM
Damn, where can we hear the full version of that Imperial March Remix... Daft Punk may have mixed that (why they are pictured at the end perhaps.)

Sweet... i got a shoutout!!!
@ Poop - if you farted in a dark room all by yourself, does it make noise???
11. Drew - January 20, 2010 1:54 PM
No offense, but this looks like a stupid conceptual urban clothing commercial with some star wars shit just thrown in there for no reason. like "fuck yeah, G, our shoes are pimp, dawg. oh look, there's darth vader... and daft punk?" wtf? also, vader would never roll with such a lame looking crew of would-be wiggers and oreos
12. carlos - January 20, 2010 1:59 PM
im on whatever side snoop doggs on...
13. Deshandre - January 20, 2010 2:26 PM
The commercial was stupid....
till Daft Punk showed their faces.. then i loved it
14. marc ecko - January 20, 2010 2:28 PM
Despite the price being steep, the Marc Ecko hoodie versions are much cooler it would seem. And by cooler, I mean "I wouldn't wear them but the fact that when you zip them up they create a helmet seems is awesome despite probably getting me beat up."
examples:
Boba Fett

16. Daniel - January 20, 2010 2:47 PM
Dude. Those Skywalkers are dope.
17. Daniel - January 20, 2010 2:49 PM
And Snoop Dogg's only in it for like .25 seconds, Ch4p3l, you f*cking moron.
18. Ch4p3l - January 20, 2010 3:00 PM
Daniel, that was .25 seconds too long...you cock smoking sonofabitch
19. everlost - January 20, 2010 3:04 PM
Are the Yoda shoes supposed to be called Yoga?
20. mike - January 20, 2010 3:05 PM
celebrate originality?
21. DH - January 20, 2010 3:15 PM
that was ILL because Daft Punk was in it
i don't think they made that mix though
22. KBOTZ - January 20, 2010 3:29 PM
i'd buy the skywalkers. The hans solo shoes blow, buy those and you'll be stroking your own wookie, hands solo.
23. soundofbread - January 20, 2010 3:58 PM
@ 15 I GIVE LOTS OF SHIT FAG
*The skywalker shoes are baddddaaaaassssss
24. taborrr - January 20, 2010 4:11 PM
They didn't show the Yodas!!! Those are the best ones out of them all. The Vaders look like old man shoes...
25. Bimbo - January 20, 2010 4:19 PM
Bath Captain liked that too
26. Dave'o - January 20, 2010 4:48 PM
The ad sucks big time, theres nothing star warzy about it, its just some lame ass corpoate bullshit that is selling out star wars, you might to check out what new era did it's way better
However the AT-AT sneakers are pretty fat, might nip to my nearest sneaker shop and get them.
27. billabong021 - January 20, 2010 4:48 PM
did anyone one else notice the two guys from daft punk in the last 5 seconds? they were the 2 robots staring at darth vader..
28. Bean, Green Bean - January 20, 2010 4:52 PM

I don't know about this Star Wars merch, but when are we getting our Daft Punk sneakers? GET ON THAT, ADIDAS.
36. Jaded Icon - January 21, 2010 8:22 AM
This is one of the most retard Star Wars Themed commercials I have ever seen, and I have seen a lot! I can prob guarantee that half these retards never even hear of Star Wars before.
37. Dalten - January 21, 2010 9:14 AM
why on earth are the Daft Punk robots there at the end of the video? :D
38. Rob - January 21, 2010 1:24 PM
Daft Punk just kinda snuck in there haha. Odd. Maybe they produced the track?
39. Tin - January 21, 2010 1:58 PM
@3
Total absolute FAIL
Adidas just became cooler, thank god I'm loyal to Adidas.

44. Liz - January 25, 2010 7:06 AM
Is it bad that i realllly want the stormtrooper ones?
45. Dale Bernier - February 4, 2010 12:27 PM
I love the Yoda Shoes! They are awesome.
I think this is a great campaign all around. Combining all of the sneaker nerds with the Star Wars geeks is a match made in heaven.
I work for the studio that created the sound design and mix for the promo for this campaign.
