[adidas'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superstar-bubble) [Baby](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blush-baby) Yoda-inspired sneakers have been announced ahead of The Mandalorian's highly anticipated second season. The sneaker brand is capitalizing on the show's popularity and massive fan base with this character-inspired collection, which is comprised of nine silhouettes.

Each of the shoes boast different aesthetics - some subtle, some bold - all while paying tribute to the show's fan-favorite character. As an example, the [Superstar silhouette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sp5der-x-adidas), has been reimagined to boast a green shade with a drawing of Baby Yoda on the back. Meanwhile, the Gazelle features a more subtle motif as it's been re-imagined with the three stripes as lightning bolts.

The collection will be released on November 4th, with pricing ranging from $70 to $150.
