Amid the The Empire Strikes Back’s 40th Anniversary, Star Wars and adidas have collaborated on another footwear capsule. Princess Leia now joins Yoda, C-3PO, the stormtrooper with her very own Ultra Boost DNA.

Clad in “Core White,” the pair is strikingly reminiscent of the Ultra Boost Kanye West famously wore in 2015. Akin to her Star Wars co-stars’ respective Ultra Boost, Top Ten, and NMD R1, Princess Leia appears on tongue tags; her name also appears on the pair’s “Core Black” spines. Heel structures and Boost-cushioning underfoot further indulge in the Princess of Alderaan’s simple, traditional ensemble, but feature a faint pattern.

An official adidas.com release date is still unknown, but the Ultra Boost DNA “Princess Leia” is likely to launch in the coming months. In the meantime, enjoy official images of the pair ahead.
