Li-Ning Way of Wade 12 "Stephen Curry" ABAV085-J28 — Stephen Curry x Li-Ning PE

The Li-Ning Way of Wade 12 ABAV085-J28 is one of the most historically significant sneakers in Li-Ning's catalog — the first-ever Stephen Curry x Li-Ning Player Exclusive, born from his landmark 10-year brand partnership. The J28 Teal / Green-Blue colorway is modeled precisely after the exact pairs Curry wore during team practices and scrimmages while finalizing his groundbreaking brand alignment, with his official redesigned Curry Brand logo prominently displayed on the pull tabs and tongue lining in place of Wade's standard circular badges.

Scheduled for a highly limited retail drop September 9–14, 2026 across Beijing, Dongguan, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong during Curry's promotional tour.

✨ What Makes the Steph Curry Logo Version Different

• Curry Brand Insignia — Stephen Curry's official redesigned logo replaces the standard Wade circular badges on the pull tabs and tongue lining, marking the first-ever Curry x Wade 12 PE collaboration.
• Historical Teal Colorway — The green-blue/teal matrix is modeled after the exact pairs Curry wore on-court during his sneaker free-agency run and brand finalization period.
• Ultra-Lightweight Guard Specs — Approximately 330–345g depending on size, making it the lightest elite model in the Way of Wade lineup, engineered for Curry's high-mileage, off-ball sprinting demands.

🚀 Core Performance Technologies

• Dual-Layer SUPER BOOM Midsole — A full-length supercritical SUPER BOOM foam stack absorbs harsh vibrations on heavy impacts while delivering a bouncy, snappy court feel under the forefoot.
• Sandwiched Carbon Fiber Plate — A full-length carbon fiber wave plate is fused between the foam layers, acting as a rigid mechanical lever that maximizes first-step energy transfer and minimizes arch strain.
• GCU Ground Control Outsole — Multi-directional herringbone tracks molded from GCU sticky rubber deliver exceptional bite on indoor hardwood for step-backs and crossovers.
• MONO Composite Upper — A high-strength composite woven shell heat-pressed with TPU lines locks the foot over the footbed without stretching out over a season of play.

📏 Fit & Sizing — Braces vs. Bare Feet

• Standard Fit (No Braces) — Order your true standard US/EU size. The inner sleeve wraps for a tight, glove-like 1:1 lockdown.
• Curry Setup (Rigid Ankle Braces) — If you wear rigid braces (Zamst A2-DX, thick McDavid sleeves, etc.), the low-top collar and non-stretch composite upper will feel extremely constricting. Size up at least a half size to accommodate brace hardware.
