You can’t keep him out of action! One disappointing game and the critics were all over him, writing off the 4x NBA Champs. But he proved his greatness with a scintillating effort to decimate the Timberwolves. Now, Stephen Curry is back to where he belongs as greatness personified. Moreover, Steph didn’t let the spotlight get away from him very early, as he rocked the sneaker world with two new launches.

We know someone when they reach the pinnacle of their NBA career. It’s when the player has his own signature shoes. In Steph’s case, the superstar went a step beyond and managed to establish his own brand, Curry Brand, in collaboration with Under Armour. While he has his own signature shoes dropping every season, this year, the brand did something spectacular.

The Curry brand launched De’Aaron Fox’s first signature shoe, Fox 1. Notably, he is the first NBA player to sign up for a deal with the brand. While we had enough looks at the sneaker, Stephen Curry revealed the football version of it. The superstar took to his IG stories and shared the image of the cleats with a fox emoji. Notably, it was a rehash of NFL star Justin Jefferson’s kicks, as he unveiled the cleats that were inspired by the Fox 1s.

On the other hand, Steph also had another engagement. The superstar unveiled the ‘What the Bay’ edition of Curry 12 alongside the Bay Area’s rap icon, E-40. The kicks had its usual Currys shape along with a bright illuminating orange shade all over it. Truly an eye-catching sneaker. The Baby-faced Assassin shared a picture of him smiling at the sneaker from the event on his IG story.

Stephen Curry indeed loves his kicks

Rapper E-40 and Stephen Curry linked up at the event before unveiling the shoe. The first statement that came out of the rapper’s mouth was, “You still young brother,” and the superstar reciprocated, saying, “I need this energy”. After complimenting each other, they engaged in thunderous dap-up.

On the other hand, there is another example to prove his love for shoes. Maybe we also add ‘love for his young fans’ to the list. After the win over the Wolves, the superstar was definitely in a good mood. It was because, in the previous game against the Grizzlies, Steph went FG-less. But against the Wolves, he unleashed his wrath from the word go. He ended the game with 31 points and 10 assists. Following the game, he didn’t just walk into the locker room.

The superstar presented his sneakers to a young fan. Unfortunately, another fan took it but Steph didn’t let it slip easily, as he stood on his business, calling out the fan. And guess what? the young fan received the kicks. What do you make of Stephen Curry’s love for sneakers? Let us know in the comments.
