There Could be a X-Wing-Themed adidas Ultraboost Coming Later This Year
Leaked images suggest adidas and Disney are teaming up on a collaborative collection that will likely accompany the premiere of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker in December. Part of that collection looks to be the above X-Wing-inspired adidas Ultraboost.
The sneaker features a colorway taken directly from the iconic X-Wing Starfighter, with a black and grey base and bronze accents on the heel and side stripes. The X-Wing’s mechanical details are printed onto the heel tab and the Boost midsole, a first for a material that had been notoriously difficult to print on or change the color of. Co-branding on the tongue and graphic insoles complete the look.
This isn’t the first time adidas has collaborated with Disney’s Star Wars franchise, having released several co-branded sneakers in 2015. adidas has also collaborated with the likes of HBO’s Game of Thrones and Dragon Ball Z recently, making this rumored collaboration a natural next step.
Check out the leaked images above and stay tuned for further information. Considering these leaked images look like they’ve been taken from the adidas site, and with Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker coming out in December, any potential release can’t be too far off in the future.
