Curry sports special pair of Under Armours for fire victims

Stephen Curry wore special pairs of his Under Armour signature shoes before and during the Warriors’ home game against the Knicks on Friday (AEDT) to honour the 36 victims of last week's 'Ghost Ship fire' and to benefit the Oakland Fire Relief fund, the San Francisco Chronicle reported .

The graffiti-adorned low-tops Curry wore during warm-ups and the custom Curry 3s he wore in the game will be auctioned with proceeds going to the fund.

The Warriors previously donated $75,000 to the same initiative, as well as $50,000 to a YouCaring.com fund.

Curry showed off the low-tops and announced the fund-raising effort on Twitter. “Ghost ship” and what appears to be initials of the 36 victims of the fire are scripted on the low-tops.

Curry posted a photo of the second pair of shoes on Instagram.

 

Tonight, I am honoring those who were affected by the tragedy at #GhostShip and wearing these shoes in support. After auctioning these shoes off, the proceeds will be combined with our team's donation to benefit the Oakland Fire Relief fund as we remember the victims and support their families. Please consider joining us. Together, we're #OaklandStrong (donation link in bio)
