Steph Curry launched the world's first Curry Brand store on Thursday in a brand-new mall in Chengdu, China. Currently on the brand's "China Tour," the Golden State Warriors star is joined by Sacramento Kings star De'Aaron Fox who is the brand's first signature athlete.

This comes just a few days after Curry elaborated that boosting Curry Brand's international presence was a priority during an event at the National Basketball Players Association.

“Basketball is everywhere and we want to be everywhere,” Curry said. “And opening up our first Curry Brand store over there — I’m excited about just that entire experience of what does it mean not just here in the U.S., but internationally, and what we can do to make sure people know what that splash logo means and what it stands for, and what Curry Brand means and where Under Armour is going.”

The first-ever Curry Brand store will have all of the brand's products, including their "China Tour" pack. Moreover, a second store is slated to open in Xian during the tour as well.

Backed by Under Armour, Curry Brand was launched in November 2020. It made Curry one of the few NBA players to have their own brand, and he joined the likes of basketball legends Michael Jordan and Patrick Ewing.

Steph Curry elicits insane crowd reactions during China tour

Steph Curry arrived in China on Tuesday and was greeted by a massive mob of fans who awaited his arrival at his hotel. The four-time NBA champion shared a video of the fans' welcome on his Instagram, which featured him and Fox making their way through a wave of fans as they headed to the hotel elevator.

"Unreal welcome for our first Curry Brand Tour. Let’s go!" Curry captioned the post.

Curry and Fox will be in China through Sept. 14 and will release the "China Tour" pack of kicks. Fox will unveil his debut signature shoes, the Fox 1, while Curry will unveil four sets of kicks, including the Curry 12, Curry 1, Curry 4 and Curry 6 FloTro models.

Curry has been one of the most influential players in NBA history and has risen from being an NBA star to an international basketball superstar. Along with having led the league in jersey sales many times, the two-time MVP has significantly influenced the game that we know today with his remarkable shooting from beyond the 3-point arc.
