Pictured above are the Under Armour sneakers the Maryland men’s basketball team will be wearing tonight when it opens the season against No. 19 Connecticut at Barclays Center. They somehow make the state-flag themed version worn last year by the women’s team look downright understated. A coworker described them as “clown shoes.”
I think they’re kind of cool, but judging by the Twitter responses, I am in the minority.
