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.Hip Hop artist Snoop Dogg has collaborated with German sportswear giant Adidas to release a new pair of American Football boots - inspired by money.
Snoop Dogg, real name Calvin Broadus, is the company's developer of football development.
The Adidas adizero 5-Star 5.0 not only feature the print of a $100 bill, but also boast a gold sole plate and the slogans "mind on my money" and "money on my mind" - lyrics from 1994 hit 'Gin and Juice'.
The boots also feature a lace lock with the slogan "Gotta Hustle" and when they arrive come wrapped in a $10,000 band.
However, British fans are not yet able to buy them in this country, with the boots or cleats (so far) only selling in the US at a retail price of $120 (£84).
They are the second pair of American football boots the rapper has released in collaboration with the firm, the first came out around a year ago and featured a roaring lion.
Snoop Dogg also goes by the alias Snoop Lion as a reggae artist.
