The LA Gear Originals silhouette was a hit in Europe not long ago; now
, LA Gear and Sportie LA are bringing the Stardust to the US, in five colors - light grey, white/blue, white/grey/green, white/lilac/green, and light pink.With its classic look, rhinestones, and bow-tie in the back, the Stardust was one of the most popular women's styles to
come out of LA Gear in the late 80's. The styling is quintessential late
80's, bringing back memories of leg warmers and aerobic workouts. Accessorizing sneakers was novel, and LA Gear led the way with the Stardust. "We are very excited to expand the relaunch of the Unstoppable line with one of the iconic women's shoes of the 1980's," said Director of LA Gear specialty product Lance Jackson.
The limited edition run consists of 89 pairs, said Sportie LA co-owner
Isack Fadlon, in tribute to the 1989-90 Unstoppable line. "We actually did 90 pairs, but the first one went to my mom for Mother's Day!" he explained.The Stardust goes on sale the night of May 12, at 11:59PM PST at www.sportiela.com/lagear/stardust.html, and is available exclusively at Sportie LA.

Thank you for bringing back these shoes. I loved them before and then they were gone. I never could find shoes that fit so good and felt good to wear. I bought two pair at famous footwear. I am so glad to have them back.
exactly when are the light ups coming out? i've been waiting for this for a very long time.
Looking like November or December of this year... we're all excited about it! Have you seen the sneak peeks on this blog yet? More pics are coming soon!
BRING BACK THE STREET BRATS!! THEY WERE THE CUTEST SNEAKERS EVER. I WISH I HAD BOUGHT A DOZEN PAIR WHEN THEY WERE AVAILABLE.
Please, please, please. Bring back the Michael Jackson shoes for men and women. That was the best shoe of all time. I had a pair when I was very young, till today I still love them even though they don't fit. Even by today's standard they would give any celeb endorsed shoe a run for the money.
Hopefully they'll come back and you can get a pair that fits!! And you make a good point - you know, this was in a day when every bballer did not have his own shoe. This was special - other than Pepsi, LA Gear is the only brand Michael ever endorsed!
I am very disappointed in LA GEar for not having any other way than the phone which they won't answer, to contact them. I was told by meijer that they would have to take care of their shoes that fell apart about2-3 weeks after I bought them. I couldn't make it back to meijer due to my work schedule and they don't cover anything after 30 days. I tried calling the number off the website and con't get anywhere.
I had a pair of La Gear when I was a young girl and loved them and they held together a lot better, but that was 12-15 years ago.
Hi - while the sneakers you bought are not part of the LA Gear Originals line we cover on this blog, we have asked the sellers of those shoes for a customer service contact to help you out. Here it is: Desperanza@aciint.com. Please email this person right away, and they should be able to address the problem!
