The Curry 7 Our History colourway was released last month to celebrate Black History Month, an annual celebration of of heroes and pioneers across public advocacy, literature, sports, science, architecture and more who have helped build or inspire American culture as we know it. It takes place in America and Canada from 1 to 29 February this year.
In February 2018, following their most recent championship win, Stephen Curry and several teammates brought local youth to visit the iconic National Museum of African-American History and Culture in Washington, D.C. to expose them to their shared history. Amid the educational displays and tributes to countless Black pioneers and heroes, Curry experienced the mystique of the venue itself—a feat of architecture from lead designer David Adjaye.
Curry and the Under Armour design team reflected on that meaningful trip when developing this year’s commemorative BHM colorway, Our History.
"The Our History colorway is special; it reflects on our history and those who helped build it. The colorway is inspired by both a memorable trip to the National Museum of African-American History and Culture, and the incredible art by David Adjaye.” - Stephen Curry
