Adidas and Pixar’s “Toy Story” franchise are hardly strangers, with semifrequent collaborations dating back to 2019’s release of “Toy Story 4.” Now, with a new film around the corner next month, the sportswear brand is teaming back up with the animation studio for a three-sneaker collection which includes a nod to the franchise’s beloved astronaut, Buzz Lightyear.

In a trio of intricately detailed styles connected to the film, it’s the Toy Story x Adidas Adistar Control 5 Buzz Lightyear that is getting the most attention so far. Using Adidas ’ on-trend Adistar Control 5 2000s running shoe as its base, the Buzz Lightyear-branded pair dons the character’s signature white, lime green and purple color combination. “Lightyear” branding appears on the tongue, while a “Space Ranger” badge is featured on the heel.
