According to Daniel Roberts and Baker Machado of Front Office Sports, the Golden State Warriors star is allowed to wear any shoe brand he wants during games. Curry has warmed up wearing Nike and Reebok sneakers, but has still only worn his signature Under Armour shoes during regular-season contests.
Steph Curry should’ve broken up with Under Armour a long time ago, says Sonny Vaccaro, the sneaker industry icon who once helped lure Michael Jordan to Nike. Vaccaro, the inspiration for the blockbuster movie “Air,” said if he were Curry’s advisor, he would’ve told him to leave “Titanic drowning” UA back around 2022.
Golden State Warriors G Steph Curry and his advisers became frustrated by what they viewed as underinvestment in Under Armour, leading to their mutual decision to end the partnership, as the division’s sales were not meeting the company’s or Curry’s expectations.
