DWade sort of did the same thing! Signed with Li Ning in September 2012, won the 2013 finals wearing Way of Wade Encores (which is basically his first shoe with a bit more ventilation from what I remember). Not that anyone cares about Li Ning today, let alone 9 years ago.
Li Ning is in my top basketball shoe companies slightly behind nike. Nike may have more money behind them and have more rnd but Li Ning is proving they care about performance more.
I really like these, I just wish that it was a different colorway. I did try on a pair, and I couldn't believe how much better they felt, compared to my 1's. Great video, as always!
love how you pointed out that the “ICDAT” touches are dope and that they should’ve put them on the shoe. personally one of my favorite touches of his product. great review overall, i freaking love these
Under Armour just released a pair of shoes called SlipSpeed. The flow foam is all pink on them so I think we're gonna start seeing different color UA Flow soles in the near future
I picked these up because I absolutely LOVED the 1st signature shoe UA gave Curry; I think I still have maybe 4 pairs and I'm so glad they flotro'd this particular model, and I knew they'd completely nail it - I love the colorway too, you're trippin bro 😜👌🏽 But after watching this I'm even more excited to hoop this week 🙌🏽
look amazing, and i have had 2 currys with flow and i am huge zoom air jordan nike etc person and i love flow and i hear others say its not good cushion, maybe ya have to not be 100-140lbs to feel it better i am 230 and the cushion is good for my knees and my feet never hurt playing ball for 1.5-2 hours
I'll definitely be picking up a pair if a better colourway comes along. The 4 flotro is my first curry shoe, which is abysmal on my behalf, but I love them. Didn't realise when I got them for retail I was lucky. Just wish it was easier to play basketball here where I live in New Zealand.
Mad respect for the intro 🔥 as you can see from my username, big Rufio/Zuko/Basco fan here 😂 the shoe (apart from that colorway) looks/sounds like it’ll perform great. Wish they kept the “I can do all things” on though..While I understand not everybody believes in God (I do) it still was a great motto to hold & sums up his entire career well
Love everything. I wish the add more cushioning system into these. It will be the perfect shoe. Im trying to find the best insole for these right now, can't find anything from my pile that will make it feel bouncy comfortable.
The 10s have so many subtle improvements that are overlooked at first glance like a slightly wider and slightly more concave flow outsole. Gives so much more stability and grip when compared with all the other flow models. The additional heel support provides a lot more lockdown and keeps your foot way more secure as well. The most complete flow shoe imo
I was thinking about this just yesterday 9with regard to Jordan brand updating the retro tech). I got a great deal at Dick's on some 36 lows ($120 instead of $175) and when I stepped into them I was like YES. They felt great, they look great and it's all due to the tech. That being said I'm a 3, 4, and 5 guy. Why the hell haven't they put a zoom strobel or replaced the PEU with Cushlon? Or both? A simple strobel replacement would make them way more comfortable then the bricks they come as and would also justify the price increase they've done. $210 for the same late 80's tech with worse materials (most of the time) is really a smack in the face. At the same time, why would they? Most of the hot releases are still selling out (Black Canvas and Canyon Purple 4's damn it - pissed I didn't get either). Until we demand better from the brand, they'll keep pumping out the retros as is.
I have the Curry 1 in a custom colorway, I wish UA didn't discontinue allowing people to make customs, I would have bought a second pair. I have pretty much hooped in those shoes more often than not and these might be that pair to do it.
The Curry 10 isn’t doing as well as it could because of the look. While they did make performance updates, which is great, aesthetically they look REALLY similar in a lot of ways to 9’s which also kinda resemble the 8’s (but not as much as the 9,s and 10’s resemble each other) Not necessarily a bad thing but for fans who aren’t 100% hoopers and just rock Curry’s casually, the 10 seems a but lazy (imo). It’s like when Nike used to make “Nike Elite” or “Playoff Edition” models of already released models. Becomes more of a Curry 9.5 instead of a true 10. I do however like the flotro concept which is like Nike’s protro And Adidas Restomod. Mainly because I’m not being told it’s a new shoe, but rather I know I’m buying an updated old shoe. Looks less lazy to me. But who am I but one consumer? Lol
Shiiit, 6 Years later and those Curry 2.5's are still🔥🔥🔥I swear none of mine have fallen apart and I hoop hard. As old as I am I still have decent defense and handles for days, so there is a lot of stopping, pivoting, side stepping in my game. Man I wonder if these are going to stand the test of time. 🤔
It's a wonderful concept and the execution is great. If people talked with their wallets Jordan brand probably would do but after the 1 alpha and the lukewarm reaction we'll just have to go with ua and the Kobe line
Thank you for another great video. The only thing that I don't like about the curry shoes now is that using foam as the sole causes a crazy amount of squeak when walking on tile or wood flooring. I can't wear them for anything but basketball because of the squeak with every step. Does this happen to anyone else?
A lot of people are saying that Wade did it before curry in the converse 1s in 2006. As far as I can tell, and maybe I’m wrong, but Kobe won a championship in the Adidas The Kobe which was his first signature with that company. That was early 2000 and he would win against the Pacers in the 1999/20 season
Kobe won his first championship in the Adidas Kobe 1 right? Anyway, hope they release the Flotro 1's in their OG colorways, definitely getting multiple pairs.
That intro is TOP TIER 😂😂 shoutout the Blue Spirit
I remember Converse Wade 1 was the first player I remember to win a championship in their first signature sneaker!
Would love to see what a high top Curry 1 FloTro would look like 🤔. Make it a sleeker version like they did with the 4s

i almost didn't recognize these as the 1s, would've been better if they were highs
Can’t wait for those sour patch edition ones, those are str8 🔥

How were they on court
look amazing, and i have had 2 currys with flow and i am huge zoom air jordan nike etc person and i love flow and i hear others say its not good cushion, maybe ya have to not be 100-140lbs to feel it better i am 230 and the cushion is good for my knees and my feet never hurt playing ball for 1.5-2 hours
I'm 175 and the cushion has been great for my joints too.
Love what ua/curry brand is doing with the curry line and the flowtro’s. 👌🏽
Awesome review as alwasy. 🔥
Any sense, perhaps based on previous Flotro releases if UA will do additional colorways?
That looks like a Jackson Pollock painting, I don't like it, I prefer Andy Warhol...
I'll definitely be picking up a pair if a better colourway comes along. The 4 flotro is my first curry shoe, which is abysmal on my behalf, but I love them. Didn't realise when I got them for retail I was lucky. Just wish it was easier to play basketball here where I live in New Zealand.

Why can't they release these in a simple colorway? I hope they release more colorways of these
I saw these when I was grabbing the Curry
10’s and I really thought about grabbing these instead. Oh well, might as well grab them now
I can't wait to grab myself a pair!
Happy Halloween my guy I'm sick today but this is making my day
I hope they will make a high top flowtro 1 with the mvp colorway
Love everything. I wish the add more cushioning system into these. It will be the perfect shoe. Im trying to find the best insole for these right now, can't find anything from my pile that will make it feel bouncy comfortable.
Dwyane Wade won his first ring in his first signature shoe with converse!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Of course! Love the channel
I feel like Steph missed with the 10’s cuz of the identical look from the 8 & 9. I have these and I love the look and the feel

i wish adidas made that with boost
imagine a rose 3 boost? rose 1/1.5 boost? ts supernatural creator boost? right????

Damn, where do you get these Marvel T-shirts, they're just dope ?!? Great vid, cheers !
Curry 1 flotro or puma all pro nitro?
should of kept them hightops, there is very few good high top basketball shoes anymore leaving us with the gt jumps as really our only options.

Happy Halloween for Jodie&Chris luvYa in Poland🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
Imagine the Jordan 4 with an EVA midsole, and a Zoom strobel over the heel Air unit!!! No need for the forefoot air unit.
Shiiit, 6 Years later and those Curry 2.5's are still🔥🔥🔥I swear none of mine have fallen apart and I hoop hard. As old as I am I still have decent defense and handles for days, so there is a lot of stopping, pivoting, side stepping in my game. Man I wonder if these are going to stand the test of time. 🤔
Flow is kind of like Frank's Hot Sauce, Under Armour puts that shit on everything.
Waiting on the SOUR PATCHES....Curry 11s
It's a wonderful concept and the execution is great. If people talked with their wallets Jordan brand probably would do but after the 1 alpha and the lukewarm reaction we'll just have to go with ua and the Kobe line
Pippen won a chip in his first signature shoe despite being a Nike athlete his whole career.
Totally agree with Jordan doing protros. New Jordan’s are garbage
I hope these come in different colorways that doesn't have these weird colors.
If they’re gonna do camo, should do it with his logo. Would be dope!
saw this personally instore and on the display shoe, the silver part got paint chips
I miss the anafoam upper i hope they flowtro the MI:30’s
Got these ASAP and I love them, super comfy
A splash party curry 1 flotro would blow my mind
Good point. Models need to look different otherwise the line gets stale
Curry 1 and the clutchfit drive 1 are my hands down favorite shoes and now it has flow. Didn’t think it could get even better
am i alone in hoping they do a clutch fit drive flowtro?
Just imagine aj 11 with kd 14 cushion set up
I have Curry 2s still but these look fried too
would you suggest a half size up for wide-foot?
Thank you for another great video. The only thing that I don't like about the curry shoes now is that using foam as the sole causes a crazy amount of squeak when walking on tile or wood flooring. I can't wear them for anything but basketball because of the squeak with every step. Does this happen to anyone else?
The logo on the tongue reminds me of the 13s hologram
THE BLUE SPIRIT LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😂🤓🔥🙌🏽💯

That was early 2000 and he would win against the Pacers in the 1999/20 season
Kobes first shoe with adidas was the KB8 1-3.
We need more retros with updated tech. This is a great trend.
Kobe won his first championship in the Adidas Kobe 1 right?
Anyway, hope they release the Flotro 1's in their OG colorways, definitely getting multiple pairs.
That wasn’t his first shoe with adidas. He had an entire KB series (adidas KB8 1-3) before The Kobe series.
U tripping, that color way is nice
the camo reminds me of a cod skin i would use
Clutchfit Drive>>>Any Curry
I have to get the high top pair!
How does the outsole hold up outdoors?
Lmfaooo that intro had me rollin!!
Ok flame away but what the hell does flotro mean? Heard it a few times but can’t seem to work it out.
A Retro with Under Armour Flow technology.
These are flameo hotman 🔥🔥🔥
hope they would release more color ways
Agree, its a bummer…😢
True to size? Or go up
My wallet is screaming
Happy Halloween!! 🎃
Bro that shirt is sick!!

Intro😂
🔥🔥🔥

Hoping for a Flotro 2
Oh yeah those are nice son To keep doin yo thang son
