Nike introduces ‘Sabrina1,’ the signature shoe for Oregon legend Sabrina Ionescu
First came the Air Jordan. Then several other signature shoes with a professional athlete’s name attached. Now it’s Sabrina’s turn.
Nike announced that they signed Ionescu as a “Signature Athlete” and with it comes the new Sabrina1 shoe.
According to the press release:
To accompany the sneakers, Nike also cooked up a range of apparel items including a pullover hoodie, tees, shorts and socks. With this new initiative, Ionescu joins the likes of female signature Swoosh legends Serena Williams, Megan Rapinoe and Naomi Osaka. The Nike Sabrina 1 is expected to launch during Summer 2023.
The Oregon legend is coming off her best WNBA season yet with the New York Liberty. She averaged 14.3 points, six rebounds and 4.3 assists per game. She also shot 40 percent from the three-point line.
