Stephen Curry Honors Kobe With Rare 'Yellow Toe' Reebok Question on Christmas Day

His sneaker-free status has turned each game into a showcase of tributes.

Overview

  • For the Warriors’ holiday game against the Mavericks, Curry wore Kobe Bryant’s “Yellow Toe” Player Exclusive of Allen Iverson’s Reebok Question.
  • The yellow-and-white pair featured an engraved 3 described as a nod to Iverson, tying together two generations of sneaker lore.
  • Curry had hinted earlier that his Christmas footwear would be “special,” continuing the mystery around his choices since becoming a sneaker free agent.
  • Later in the Christmas slate he switched into Klay Thompson–associated shoes, a moment highlighted on the ABC and ESPN broadcast that drew heavy fan reaction online.
  • Since ending his Under Armour deal, he has rotated other players’ models, including pairs tied to Anthony Edwards and Devin Booker, while continuing strong form capped by a recent 26-point outing in a 127–97 win over the Magic.
