Over 70 pairs of kicks that Curry donned throughout the 2025-26 NBA season following his much-publicized split with Under Armour went up for sale on April 13, and each, according to Sotheby’s, “reflected Curry’s deliberate engagement with basketball history, global sneaker culture, and the evolution of the game itself.”

All of the proceeds from the auction went to Curry’s Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation, an organization he and his wife, Ayesha, set up to help underprivileged youth.
“This whole journey started as a way to have some fun with the game and tell stories through what I was wearing every night, but it turned into something much bigger than I ever expected,” Curry said. “Seeing the response from fans and collectors around the world, and knowing that every pair is now going on to have a life beyond me, is really special.
“What means the most is that this moment is creating real impact off the court through Eat. Learn. Play., and that’s always been the goal.”
