Despite its inspiration being infamous for their bad aim, the adidas Nite Jogger “Storm Trooper” surprisingly hits its mark. A change of pace from the good guy colorways unveiled on the NMD R1 — i.e. Rey’s and Yoda’s — the pair essentially nods to its muse’s armor of choice. Black and white color swathes do well to draw these connections with little in the way of quotes — save for the short “Set to stun” at the heel — or sabers to help out as the troopers themselves are, more often than not, identity-less, dispensable pawns to the Empire once and now the First Order. Fittingly, the lighter neutral covers much of the outward presentation as it dresses up the base layer of mesh and synthetic as well as the tongue, Boost sole, and tread; the darker hue finds place along the in-between just as it does on the countless soldiers themselves. Light blue strips at the sole represent the discernible accents of a commander while the tongue stamps with a portrait of the many to see an on-screen death. Grab a detailed look at these right here and expect to find them hitting adidas.com on December 17th, a whole three days before the premiere of “Rise of the Skywalker.”
