'Star Wars' may have first hit the scene almost 35 years ago, but we’re still seeing this iconic movie in just about every field of pop culture. The [Adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clot-superstar) Originals '[Star Wars' Top Ten R2-D2](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audio-technica-r2-d2) and C-3PO Sneakers are just another example to support the staying power of this franchise.

These sneakers are a part of the Fall/Winter 2010 collection and feature a split personality concept. With each divided in half to represent the two 'Star Wars' characters, these sweet sneakers are definitely worth a look.
