As the scoreboard now stands, the Kentucky Wildcats stand alone when it comes to producing NBA talent. A total of 29 active players once called Rupp Arena home, including three signature athletes in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Devin Booker, and for our purposes, De’Aaron Fox. The San Antonio Spurs guard debuted his second sneaker with Under Armour’s Curry Brand the other month, and now the Curry Fox 2 era continues with an inspired ode to “Lexington.”
De’Aaron’s first Curry Brand model released in a likeminded “Lexington” colorway for March Madness earlier this year, which is telling about just how fast his second sneaker arrived. While that release arrived in monochrome Kentucky blue, the Fox 2 here incorporates black hits on the lining, lace strap, and midsole. White paint splatter on the tail-inspired midsole adds some intrigue, complemented by blue/white laces. De’Aaron’s signature Curry Brand logo appears on the center of the strap on the Fox 2, while Steph’s imprint lives on the lateral side of the heel.
The UA Curry Fox 2 “Lexington” releases in adult ($120) and GS sizes ($90) on September 12th, but UA Rewards members can cop NOW through the Under Armour website. See official images below if these might slot into your hoops shoe rotation.
