Nike Sabrina 1 Medium Soft Pink (W): A Sneaker of Impact and Style
Despite not clinching the title this season, Sabrina Ionescu’s impact on and off the WNBA court remains significant. Her dedication and influence extend into the sneaker world with the Sabrina 1, her signature sneaker with Nike, marking her as the 12th woman with a signature sneaker in the WNBA. As we eagerly await the 2024 Brooklyn colorway, Nike is capping off 2023 with a new Medium Soft Pink rendition of the Sabrina 1.
Combining both performance and style, this Sabrina 1 sports a primarily pink upper. Vibrant yellow hits can be found on the textile portions of the mudguard, eyestays, and parts of the sole unit, helping to balance the overall design. Additionally, oil green accents are strategically placed on the Swoosh, Sabrina logos, and the “I” on the back heel, adding depth and a touch of uniqueness.
The midfoot of the sneaker showcases semi-translucent ripstop material in pink, enhancing its aesthetic appeal while also providing durability. Underneath, the sneaker features a pink and yellow foam midsole with full-length Nike React cushioning for optimal comfort and performance, paired with a pink rubber outsole.
The Nike Sabrina 1 Medium Soft Pink (W) is set to release on December 6, 2023, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. It will be available in extended women’s sizing, with a retail price of $130.
