Under Armour Curry One Performance Review

Under Armour Curry One Performance Review.

On a safe note, I can say these are definitely a pair in anybody's rotation but if you re wondering whether to cop them, it all goes down to you as a consumer. Why? Well, we all know these are Stephen curry's first signature with UA but these aren't anything spectacular especially with a Rm649 pricetag. Not hating the pair at all folks, but hear me out.

Firstly, I will start off with the traction. Well they are great outdoors but I can't say indoor wise because I have not played indoors yet . But I don't think these are as durable as the Nike Kyrie 1 (go get em if you want everlasting grip, seriously).

Cushion, I can definitely feel the Charged Cushion in these especially during fast motions. I don't even feel tired standing around in these (oldmanwillliketheseforsure) in comparison to like the way of wades. So for you guys who re always on the run , you will like these for sure.

Ventilation wise, this pair is well ventilated for the most part but I live in Malaysia where its either blazing hot or raining non stop so it does not matter really. In fact, ventilation does not matter to me as much as the cushion used.

The fit of this pair really varies depending on the consumer's size and preference. I'm usually a size 10.5 but i'm a 10 in these.When i tried them on, I felt that going a half size down filled up the dead space around as this pair is engineered to fit an ankle brace and i don't wear them. So if you can, go try them on before purchasing as not everyone's feet are the same.

Overall, I like it but personally i feel it doesn't really justify the rm600 pricetag apart from the fact that its curry's first pair. I played in other pairs too like Peak, Li-ning and also Anta for that matter and they re much cheaper than these but pretty much up to par, if not these are slightly better. If you think about it, add a little bit more and you re able to purchase a pair of lebron 12's or kobe 10( if they re discounted of course). Im not saying this are not worth the money but if you wanna get something of that value then you might wanna reconsider. But if you don't mind then by all means, go for it. Also, there will be a low top of this model and I think those will be better given that being a high top doesn't really do much, but restricts you a bit more instead.

From a fashion standpoint, i don't know how to pull this off apart from wearing a black hoodie and a pair of long fleece pants. Someone said these shoes look like Spongebob's retarded cousin so.... PASS.
Dont be surprised if people who aren't familiar with UA pass remarks like -
"What shoe is that? Why the logo like X-Men wan?"
"Under armour? So the shoe bulletproof ah?"

Conclusion - I'm not saying its a terrible pair at all really. If it wasn't over Rm600 i would love it even more but for that price you can also get a pair of kd7's at Rm559. Least i can say this pair isn't as dissapointing as the Nike Kyrie ones. However, I'm waiting for the lowtop version of these, they should definitely feel better given the high cut feels good enough.

Ps - My opinion is just one person's input. If you want a more detailed review, youtube is your place to go. For those who couldn't cop, im pretty sure more colors will drop at Hoops station so stay tuned to them or pay a visit to Under Armour's MY website. Link below.

My score sheet for these would be :

Cushioning   - 9/10
Support         - 8/10
Durability     - 9/10
Traction        - 9/10
Fit                  - 9/10
To the naked eye  -  An ideal pair just not worth the tag. Choice is yours.
