Learn. Play. Foundation., which supports youth in Oakland. The organization works to provide nutritious meals, enhance literacy, and create safe play spaces for kids. So far, they\u2019ve remodeled 23 local schoolyards and six gymnasiums.<\/p>\n<p>Curry parted ways with Under Armour last November after a 12-year partnership, allowing him to operate as a so-called \u201csneaker free agent\u201d ever since. Fans have been following closely as he sports new shoes before each Warriors game, wearing everything from Anthony Edwards\u2019 Adidas to Sia Collective and Li-Ning, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/7178632\/2026\/04\/07\/steph-curry-sneakers-auction-charity-nba\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"shortcode-outbound-link\" data-has-ga=\"true\" data-ga-type=\"click\" data-label=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/7178632\/2026\/04\/07\/steph-curry-sneakers-auction-charity-nba\/\" data-action=\"text_cta_0\" data-category=\"click_non_sales\">The New York Times<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve always believed that every pair of sneakers tells a story,\u201d said Curry. \u201cThis collection really captures a unique chapter for me during my sneaker free agency this season. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom the tunnel walks to the on-court warm-ups to the games across the country, I was excited to spend this time shining a light on players over the years who have left their mark on the sneaker game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The auction offers an exciting glimpse into Curry\u2019s experimental season, featuring memorable sneakers signed by Curry himself.
