R2-D2 is one of the most memorable characters in the Star Wars films for his quick wit and ability to solve problems instantaneously. These yoga pants by [Think Geek](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vlasic-pickles) cleverly pay tribute to the adorable metallic droid with a print inspired by his robotic costume.
