Under Armour Curry One "Home" and "Dark Matter"



The Bay Area's Adopted Son

Steph Curry is the heart and soul of the Golden State Warriors. He is having the best season of his career, and his team's NBA-leading record of 43-10 is showing the world that they are for real. This is the perfect time for him to release his signature shoe as he stands in the MVP candidate spotlight; introducing to you the Under Armour Curry Ones! UA has definitely stepped its game up with this pair: adding creativity, well-made materials, and having superstar player Steph Curry to back it. When you first put it on, they feel similar to the Nike Hyperdunks in the way they meld to your feet, but the Curry Ones are made of a more stable material called anafoam which gives it more stability. Very nice grip on the soles, and colorways are on point! Yes you heard me right, I bought BOTH colorways that were released as I couldn't get enough of them. The "Home" colorway was a given that I'd buy them, but the "Dark Matter" colorways were so hot I couldn't resist (purple is my fav color). Please check out the pics below for this double-trouble post!

Picture day with "Home" and "Dark Matter" colorways!


Side and bottoms.

Look like rocket ships with the "SC" on the back.

Who can argue with royal purple and neon green?


Purple camo = win.

Dark Matter: Hypothetical kind of matter that cannot be seen with telescopes but accounts for most of the matter in the Universe. Just like Steph's game, you can't see it but you know that it's enormous.

Toes are clean.

1932 is the year when Jan Oort discovered Dark Matter.

The year Steph was born.

Warriors colors, protect this house!

4:13 Philippians: "I can do all things..."

Wonderful metallic blue toes.

Steph writes this on every pair of shoes before he plays. "I can do all things..."

Check out the anafoam upper.

A reminder to Steph to lead his teammates to victory.

MMTB = Make my teammates better.

Candid shot.

"The League's Most Unguardable Player"

Stephen Curry is arguably the best player in the league right now. Averaging 23.6 points, 4.7 boards, 7.9 assists, while shooting 48% FG, 40% 3-Pt, and 90% FT, he's been taking the league by storm. Amazing behind the back passes, masterful handles, and assassin-like shooting from the 3 point land, he is a magician that's at the top of every team's scouting report. This Warriors team is breaking records like no other with Steph at the helm: Best start for a rookie coach ever, franchise most consecutive wins (16), franchise most consecutive home wins (19), Klay's most points in a quarter by any player in NBA history (37 pt, 13-13 from the field, 9-9 from 3-pt range), the first pair of Warriors starting an All-Star game since 1967, and #1 in points per game, assists, field goal %, and 3 point %!! Clearly the leading candidate for MVP, Steph chose the perfect time to introduce his own signature shoe, which was showcased during the All-Star game festivities. Only time will tell where this Warriors team will be placed in history, but we are certainly enjoying the journey. Thank you Steph and the Warriors for the memories so far. Please check out the pics below!
