Nike's commitment to empowering female athletes is epitomized in their partnership with WNBA star Sabrina Ionescu. Ionescu, a beacon of talent and determination on the court, has expanded her influence beyond the game, mainly through her signature sneaker, the Sabrina 1. For the newest iteration, the Nike Sabrina 1 takes inspiration from Ionescu’s life off the WNBA court.
The Beyond colorway of the Nike Sabrina 1 reflects the multifaceted impact of Ionescu's career. Its design is a nod to her partnerships with influential entities like Thirty Five Ventures and Boardroom, co-founded by NBA star Kevin Durant. A greyscale palette is present across the textile, ripstop, and suede upper.
The subtle yet profound "Welcome Sabrina!" text on the insole symbolizes her expanding role in the broader sports and business community. Sabrina's iconic "S" logo is prominently displayed on the tongue, accompanied by Nike's classic Swoosh on the midfoot. The grey color scheme extends to the midsole, ensuring a cohesive look, while the tonal rubber outsole promises durable traction.
The Nike Sabrina 1 Beyond W was originally set to release on February 1, 2024. However, the date has been pushed up to January 3, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in extended women’s sizing, it is priced at $130. For the latest information on this release and more, stay tuned to the Sole Retriever mobile app.
