Stephen Curry is somewhat known for being criticized by
social media for the men's basketball shoes he wears, which have sometimes been
criticized for appearing boring. Newer models have reduced those giggles, but
one thing has not changed: they live up to their loud reputation.
Loud, indeed. In other words, the basketball shoes squeak
quite loudly when they are put on the basketball court, which is by design.
In my opinion, one of the most important features of Curry's
shoe is the squeak, according to two people who work at Under Armour.
In an interview with ThePostGame, Kort Neumann explained the
things Curry wants in his shoes and why Curry was heavily involved in designing
them.
Furthermore, Ron Johnson, a product manager at Under Armour
responsible for basketball shoes, told Complex how crucial it is for Curry's basketball shoes to squeak. "The squeak test" is a prerequisite to any shoe
design, Johnson says.
Johnson said it is not acceptable if the player doesn't hear
"squeak" right away after stepping on the basketball court.
Despite its importance to Curry, the squeak does serve a
purpose.
The fact that the shoe is sticking in the ground, in
Neumann's opinion, is something that he considers to be an indicator of
"draw a line".
It is easy to imagine why tackiness would be valuable for
someone who is reliant on movement and creating shots. This is what Stephen
Curry gets from that sound.
