In this story:

Golden State Warriors fans know that Stephen Curry always makes it rain. But in April 2021, Curry went torrential – scoring 559 points, specifically 96 threes… in just 15 games. Curry made history by hitting the most 3-pointers in a single month ever.

The good people at Curry Brand call that 'April Showers,' and they have created a special hoop shoe to celebrate the incredible feat of his shooting streak.

The Curry 4 Low FloTro' April Showers' are predominantly white with light blue "drops" that dot along the shoe. A favorite low-top style of the rainmaker himself, the Curry 4 Low FloTro's feature a low upper combined with a knit sleeve to give a soft, sock-like fit while also featuring the patented bouncy grip of UA flow.

The shoe is simple and pure in design but deadly in play, just like Steph's shooting form, which produces regular April showers for his opponents. Through games of April 10, Steph has shot 47.1 3P% in April regular season games for his career, his highest of any month.

The Curry 4 FloTro' April Showers' contains all of the athlete-approved technology as other colorways. The lightweight engineered knit upper is comfortable and breathable, while the strategic TPU films for added support and durability.

The model's plush collar provides enhanced comfort and lockdown around the ankle. Meanwhile, the built-in Pebax® shank adds midfoot stability.

Lastly, the UA Flow cushioning technology is super-light and bouncy and provides an unbelievable grip. Plus, the durable UA Flow outsole allows you to cut and stop/start faster than ever before.

The Curry 4 Low FloTro' April Showers' is scheduled to drop tomorrow, Friday, April 12. Online shoppers will be able to purchase the performance basketball shoes for $130 in adult sizes on the Curry Brand website.
