FANTASY SHOPPING . . .
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A personal shopping service smacks of "olde worlde" things. It is also a necessary indulgence for people too busy or lazy to get to the shops. Imagine the luxury of someone coming to your home or office with a range of samples for your perusal. Nice, huh? This is the sort of service more smart retailers should think about providing - after all, it's our money they're after. Make them work for it, I say. One company that has caught on is John Lobb. It makes spanking posh classic men's and women's shoes in calf and suede. It only operates in central London, though, which I think is a bit mean, but an experienced shoe fitter will come to you with a selection of 12 styles in different width fittings. Prices from pounds 225-pounds 425, sizes 5-12 in men's, 4-7 in women's.
