Yesterday, a new colorway for Steph Curry’s signature shoes with Under Armour was introduced, and the shoes were immediately turned into a meme.

The Curry 2 Low “Chef” sneakers, which are all-white, have a similar look to the shoes your dad might wear with knee socks and shorts, and Twitter could not hold back with the jokes.
