Lone Wook-Tee -- $20 at Threadless
We love this Bigfoot/Wookie mashup from local Chicago artist Ictus, whose colorful design depicts our furry friend creeping through the marshes on an unknown planet, perhaps in search of Han. This shirt is available in a variety of styles (including hoodies, zip-ups, baseball tees and more) for men, women and kids, and can be customized for color and fit. To see more styles from Ictus, check out his Threadless shop.
Stormtrooper Cufflinks -- $17.49 at Etsy
The Brooklyn-based Etsy shop StyledGents is a cufflink cornucopia. While there are multiple Star Wars themes to choose from (we also like these Boba Fett and Rebel Alliance styles), these Stormtrooper 'links really stood out. Handmade from stainless steel, these babies ship worldwide in a cute, pre-ribboned box -- no wrapping needed!
