To add further Snoop touches, the ankle collar and sockliner feature lion fur print, and a lace jewel is a lion tooth grill modeled after one of Snoop’s personal chains. In case you needed further evidence on how designed them, adidas added in a Snoop Lion signature printed across the tongue and is features on the box.
The adidas adizero 5-Star cleat is one of the lightest in the brand's arsenal, weighing in at just 6.7oz, and features SPRINTWEB internal support base for maximum stability to aid during quick cuts and change of direction.
