How much does it cost to get Noel Gallagher to appear in a TV advert?
Easy. Two VIP tickets to the World Cup Final, bags of cash and the chance to design his own range of footwear.
The former Oasis star is releasing 120 pairs of limited edition Adidas trainers in a couple of weeks' time.
If you are lucky enough to beat the queue at the only shop they are going on sale, Adidas on Newburgh St, London, they will set you back £80.
It's all part of the wise deal he cracked when he agreed to feature in the ace Adidas Originals Star Wars ad a couple of years ago.
Noel said: "I've been buying Adidas trainers since I was a young dude.
"To have my name put to a pair is truly mind-blowing."
So here's the bit for trainer geeks.
The runners are based on the firm's classic Training '72 shoe – his favourite as a youngster.
Noel took a binliner full of old pairs when he went to meet designers and came up with the new version with his initials on the heel and face on the tongue.
They are available from October 22, with a limited number of signed pairs up for grabs on the Adidas Originals Facebook page. Russell Brand will be first in the queue.
