6 Days Till Geekmas Epic Gift Ideas

The calm before the storm. It is now the Sunday of the final weekend before Christmas. The chaos will now just triple until the eventual yule tide orgasm of the holidays culmination. So I thought it would be fun that for the next 5 days to cover some of the epic gifts which we all want but it's likely too late to find.

But, for this Geekmas countdown, instead of covering that same boring gadgets that the media outlets are covering (*cough*iPad*cough*) I decided to find the gear which the true geeks and fanboys would love to own.

So the first gift should actually be my number one but since there is no particular order I had to talk about this item first. The Limited Edition Star Wars Varsity Jacket made by Adidas. Adidas is quickly becoming my favorite company after they teemed up with Lucas to create coats, track jackets, kicks, hoodies, shirts, jerseys, polo shirts, and more all Star Wars themed for the trendy fanboys out there. But nothing beats the Varsity Jacket.

The one pictured above comes in the iconic Adidas black and white which goes great with the Empire aesthetic. On the front is the DS (Dark Side) letters with Dark Side Imperials 77. Beneith the Imperials year in red stitching is Kessel Run Invitational, Alderaan Memorial Cup '77, Tattooine Raid '77, and Hoth Snow Bowl '80. The left is adorned with 3 TIE Fighters. Each TIE is labeled "Winter Galactic Cup" with the years 1977, 1980, and 1983. (If you don't know the significance of the years then please stop now and LEAVE THIS BLOG!) On the right arms is the Adidas logo with the original Star Wars title font. Finally, the back piece is the balls of the jacket. A Stormtrooper helmet with cross blasters and the words "Super Death Star".

I can't say enough about how EPIC this jacket is. Here's the problem: Nearly all Star Wars Adidas Varsity Jackets are sold out. Having started out at only $99 bucks, I've seen them go on ebay for about $400 dollars now.

However, if you are a sneakerhead there is still hope. You can also buy the matching kicks online from anywhere between $112 - $150 Washington's.
