Stephen Curry’s “middle-aged dad sneakers” are being mercilessly mocked by the internet

I'm not into sneakers like that anymore, but yall are all the way bugging acting like these don't look like some kohl's middle aged white guy special. They're not ugly, but for sure not stylish. If it can tap into that niche though it should bank, just shouldn't be a highlight of a superstars line of shoes. What kids will be begging mommy to cop those in any color way?

I personally think they ain't that bad. If you replace the symbol (whatever it is) with a jumpman, these would be cool on the streets.

Those are terrible and slapping a Jumpman on them would change the fact that they're ugly af.

The majority of people making fun of these are probably the same ones who think that you'll tear your ACL in a pair of Adidas, that all white shoes = dad shoes, and that only wear Nike/Jordan

Gotta love the #NTextremes. Those are pure trash and they do look like Dad shoes. The majority of people making fun of them are rightfully so in doing it.

Yeah I gotta believe dudes are just trying to stand out and be unique. Unless I need some glasses.
 
If they had some elephant print and jumpman, perception would be very different.

They look like most of the Jordan Brand.
 
Clumsy looking therapeutic air monarch status.

The only reason the air monarchs sell is because it's at that $50 price point 95% of Americans will not want to spend over on with a pair of shoes. Nike knows this. It also doesn't hurt that it's in every store imaginable. Margins have to be great on that one.

These would be tough with an icy sole if they weren't fakes

Even then I could only see myself wearing these to the gym

"Don't Wear Currys to the club, them ***** ugly"

Midsole seems great for support & functionality but it doesn't look very stylish. Seems more like a max support running shoe midsole/outsole.
 
"how fire they are" :lol:

The material on ua joints just look cheap. Plus the design is generic.

Idk what happened because ua joints used to be fresh.

Maybe I'm out of touch, but back in my day rocking non mainline Jordan brand was a travesty except for maybe 1 or 2 standouts.

When Brand Jordan first started, it was highly regarded for a couple years.

But then retro took off, Brand Jordan started releasing trash, and it they feel off hard.

I'm 30, and was in the DMV
 
Yeah the jordan brand joints were "accepted", kinda like chaps to Polo. Joints used to be decent. Then waaaay too many started releasing.

Randy Moss joints were legit too. Lowkey I would cop the Eddie Jones joints right now.


Nobody is wearing these Curry shoes except people in the Bay Area, here in NC , little kids who love him and team program sponsored under UA.
