The Nike Sabrina 1 "Oxygen Purple" drops September 1 at Hibbett | City Gear.

All hail the WNBA! While its male counterpart, the NBA, garners most of the attention, Nike wanted to focus on the demands both genders face on court by creating a performance basketball shoe catering to the needs of all. 

As the biggest champion for athletes and sports, Nike Basketball unveiled the Nike Sabrina 1 — Sabrina Ionescu’s signature sneaker. The WNBA New York Liberty point guard not only has the distinction of being the first women’s basketball player to deliver a unisex collection with the Swoosh, she’s also a two-time WNBA All-Star, the 2023 WNBA Shootout Champion, NCAA all-time leader in career triple-doubles, and she has a whole other slew of on-court accolades. 

The Nike Sabrina 1 basketball shoes drop September 1 in an “Oxygen Purple” makeup with impactful notes of black and Lemon Chiffon. Find them at Hibbett | City Gear in unisex sizing.

The Sabrina 1’s freshing blueberry and Lemon Chiffon gradient evokes the bright sweetness of a cool summer dessert. But don’t mistake the colorway for a lightweight shoe. This sneaker gives speed, performance, comfort and confidence seats at the proverbial dinner table. 

Composed of varying knit and mesh weaves, the upper cleverly nods to Sabrina’s Romanian heritage, with yellow detailing around the lacing system and toe that mimics Romanian architecture (while enhancing high-abrasion areas, of course). The Lemon Chiffon at the front fades into purple along the latter half of the shoe. A loosely woven mesh along the quarter panels provides a look at the midfoot band system that helps lock down the foot during play. 

Large, slightly offset, black-outlined Swooshes also appear over the layers of bands and open weave. The tongue’s felted material includes a Lemon Chiffon circle with Sabrina’s “S” logo, and other personalized details come tucked into the sneaker package. Stamped into the foam midsole, “Anyone, Anywhere” runs with the idea that it takes a dream and hard work to achieve your goals, no matter who you are. Sabrina’s scribbled signature appears on the heel with a large yellow dot above, which pays tribute to her Romanian roots. 

The cushioning in this shoe is designed for speed, comfort and ground control, thanks to a React foam core running the length of the shoe and a top-loaded Air Zoom unit. A black and yellow rubber outsole includes a data-informed traction pattern cut into “S” shapes for exceptionally quick cuts and easy directional changes. 

No matter your age, size, skill or gender, the Nike Sabrina 1s can help elevate your game and hard work. Shop the September 1 drop of the “Oxygen Purple” unisex basketball shoe at Hibbett | City Gear, and keep your eyes peeled for more shoe releases with our launch calendar
