The [adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/<a%20class=)-launched-lightblaze'>Adizero 5-Star Snoop Lion soccer cleats are unlike any soccer cleats -- or any shoes for that matter -- you've ever laid your eyes on. This shouldn't come as a surprise seeing as how Snoop Lion actually had a hand in designing the cleats, so you know it's going to be something pretty extreme.

The Adizero 5-Star Snoop Lion cleats are the first celebrity cleats from adidas. The shoe features fancy gold clean tips and detailing with a pure white toe box. The most eye-catching element is the print of a roaring lion situated around the mid-foot and heal area. The sock-line and ankle collar also feature a lion fur-inspired print, while the [lace jewel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lace-pearls) is shaped like a lion tooth. Snoop Lion's signature is printed across the tongue of the shoe.

Fans who buy these limited-edition cleats will have the chance to meet Snoop Lion himself and take a picture with him. Snoop himself appears to be very excited about the new cleats:

> The cleats are not only made for top performance, but specially designed by me—so get ready to be suited and booted, dipped and whipped like me.
