Adidas has proved that tennis shoes and Star Wars are a snazzy (and comfortable) combo. Designer Freehand Profit decided to take it one step further—he made a wearable Stormtrooper helmet from two pairs of Adidas sneakers.
It looks more comfortable than the standard armor bucket, but I don’t want to think about the smell. If you want to wear sneakers on your head, you can bid on this piece right now at eBay.

Arachnophobics will love this Indiana Jones-inspired t-shirt from Threadless—if it get’s voted into existence that is.

These one-of-a-kind custom Minecraft-themed Vans are the creation of kyozokicks and recently sold on eBay for a tidy sum of $305.
He explained that the shoes are very time consuming to produce, but he’s not closing the door on making another pair. If the price is right, I’m sure you can tempt him.

Aperture Labs appears to be working on a crazy portal wedding rings concept, which I suppose makes it harder for the husband to escape. However, the good news for the groom is that there is usually some cake after the ceremony.

Unfortunately, these are only concept shoes but I’ll admit that deviantARTist Jay Angeles’ design is pretty fantastic. It seems as though he has really caught them all.
Check out more of his work in the link below.

Bask in the glory of this leather and LED steampunk Metroid Samus Aran arm cannon by DeviantARTist Skinz-N-Hydez. It’s called the Glove-O-Love, so I hope you like it rough.

If you saw the Death Star dress on Fashionably Geek (or a million other sites on the internet) and wondered how you could make something similar—good news! The creator, Jennifer Landa, spoke with The Official Star Wars blog and offered some insights into her inspiration for the design, and how she managed to put it together (The Death Star skirt itself is actually a decorated beach ball).
In the future she plans to add some LEDs and wear it to Star Wars Celebration VI.

In the following ad for the Kia Picanto, 1200 bottles of nail polish and 900 fake fingernails come together to create what is being hyped as “the world’s first nail art animation.” I have to admit—it’s pretty impressive.
Check it out after the break.
There are plenty of ways to make a Captain America shield on the cheap, but this version made out of cardboard and duct tape actually flies like a giant Frisbee—quite well in fact.
Check out the video after the break to see the shield in action.
Tina Roth Eisenberg of swissmiss had an interesting idea—an online store devoted entirely to “designy” temporary tattoos.
Tattly is a temporary tattoo store for design-minded kids and kids-at-heart. After applying many bad-clip-art tattoos on her daughter, swissmiss decided to stop complaining and take matters into her own hands. Tattly was born. Now, let’s rock the tattoo world together.
Tina brought several designers in on the project and the first batch of designs can be viewed in the image after the break. If you aren’t ready to ink your skin permanently, these designs are a fun way to accessorize.
