UA Curry 7 Chinese New Year Release Date

Under Armour and Stephen Curry will celebrate Chinese New Year this January with a special Curry 7 colorway that honors one of the world’s oldest continuous artistic traditions – water color painting.

The latest release, the Curry 7 Chinese New Year, was inspired by the classic style of Chinese painting, or guóhuà. The colorway offers fans a pop of rich color against neutral gray tones and an artistic blend of vibrant peony blooms. It was designed to commemorate new beginnings, both on and off the court.

The Curry 7 Chinese New Year colorway features a Grey-on-Grey upper comprised of several layered materials. An original floral pattern—inspired by Chinese shui-mo ink and wash painting—elevates the shoe’s back panel and a Golden, flexible plate helps augment its white heel. The plate also separates the shoe’s UA HOVR and Micro G cushioning technologies, which effectively combine to allow for an explosive first step and sharp cuts.

adidas Consortium Reveals The ZX 10000 JC

adidas ZX 10000 JC Collegiate Navy EG8968 Release Date

First released earlier this year, the ZX 10000 C was created in close consultation with the original designer of the ZX range and Torsion technology, Jacques Chassaing.

Its latest iteration, as the subtly-changed name suggests, is the most explicit celebration yet of the man who created the original three decades ago.

As its name suggests, the latest version of the shoe, the 10000 JC, puts Jacques Chassaing’s personal role front and center – most explicitly by adding his initials to the branding on the tongue. The dark navy uppers are crafted from a premium blend of suede leather and other natural/technical fabrications that reflect the understated colors and textures Jacqus Chassaing often wears. The toned-down aesthetic also allows the ahead-of-their-time technologies to take centre-stage. Mesh underlays are complimented by a webbed, Torsion-branded panel across the ever-iconic three stripes. A TPU support on the heel draws attention thanks to a flash of Aqua Blue – a color synonymous with the ZX series, and one that also appears to most eye-catching effect across the entirety of the 10,000 JC’s midsole.
