Sabrina 1 Launching Summer 2023

I’m officially a Nike Basketball signature athlete!

These kicks are super Kobe inspired, which I think will be warmly received by the hooper community. Kobe was a big mentor for Sabrina so I feel like Nike made a big effort to craft a shoe that feels aligned with the Mamba aesthetic 🙏

While these don't have the same scales we saw on the Kobe 6, we do see a pattern/ texture that looks faintly reptilian from afar. These shoes will be available in unisex sizing, which is dope because a shoe this hot should be worn by everyone. Sabrina is the first female athlete to release a full unisex collection with apparel to match the footwear 🤝

I would rock any Sabrina gear because she's been a problem since the Oregon days, and the NY Liberty built a legitimate superteam in the 2023 offseason, so I expect Sabrina and co to make some serious noise this WNBA season 🏀
