Nike and Sabrina Ionescu have officially unveiled the Sabrina 4 signature collection, marking a modern evolution in the WNBA champion’s acclaimed footwear and apparel line. Debuted during Ionescu’s second Asia tour in China, the Sabrina 4 transitions the series from its initial “trilogy” of handcrafted-style models into a performance-heavy silhouette defined by cutting-edge running innovations and a refined, lightweight construction.
The Sabrina 4 introduces a new underfoot setup centered around a TPU FlyPlate, a feature inspired by the explosive launch of a sprinter’s starting blocks and influenced by Nike’s Alphafly marathon lineage. This propulsion element is paired with a forefoot Air Zoom unit and a plush Cushlon 3.0 foam midsole to provide high-energy return and responsive court feel. The upper features a lightweight build with a new haptic print that creates a visual “S” that transitions into an “I” as it moves from heel to forefoot, honoring Ionescu’s Romanian roots. Functional details include a carved collar for mobility, a perforated tongue for breathability, and a compression-molded vamp for a secure fit.
Complementing the footwear, the signature apparel collection introduces Aero-FIT technology to the court. This cooling system utilizes a textured knit structure made from 100% textile waste, designed to circulate air and regulate temperature during intense play. The apparel range, which includes jerseys and shorts, mirrors the footwear’s commitment to sustainability and high performance. Signature branding continues through the vertical medial Swoosh, symbolizing broken barriers, and the lowercase “i” motif found on the heel.
The Nike Sabrina 4 and signature apparel collection will launch globally in July 2026 via Nike and select retailers.
