In 2013, Stephen Curry and Under Armour joined forces. What began as a relationship between a challenger brand aiming to disrupt the sports business and an underappreciated point guard who was just a few years into his league career has blossomed into an iconic collaboration centered around innovation and disruption. Now that their already special relationship has been amplified, the two have committed to working together for the benefit of athletes and communities for many years to come, achieving success for both parties.

 

They will build on the previous decade’s achievements, continue to innovate and drive product solutions, have an influence on communities around the world, and expand Under Armour and Curry Brand together. Under Armour and the namesake Curry Brand—led by the four-time NBA champion—bring a broader vision and a common goal to enable athletes and shape their personas both on and off the court.

The goal of the strengthened relationship is to increase market share, drive company growth, and open up new international commercial prospects.

Among our generation’s most gifted individuals, Stephen stands out. WHOLELY, HE REPRESENTS THE UNITED ARMOUR ADULTS AND IS INTIMATELY LINKED TO THE UNDER ARMOUR FAMILY. We can’t wait to continue working together and provide athletes all across the world with even more groundbreaking ideas and motivation.

If I’ve learned anything from the last decade, it’s that my partner Under Armour and I are capable of great things. Under Armour excels at making an impression on athletes and developing products that both meet their needs and connect with them. We staked our bets on one other in 2013, and I’m fully committed to taking this next step with you.

Launching his tenth trademark sneaker, the Curry Flow 10, last fall, Stephen became the first Under Armour athlete and just the ninth athlete in history to do so. Together with Under Armour, Stephen debuted UA Flow in 2020; this revolutionary cushioning system has been instrumental in elevating both his signature shoes and his game to new heights.

Joining Under Armour at this pivotal time, with Stephen’s heat and influence, is something I couldn’t be more thrilled about. As we move forward with the Under Armour brand, I am excited to work closely with Stephen and the Curry team.
