There’s a new queen in town, and her name is Sabrina Ionescu. The 25-year-old point guard for the New York Liberty just made waves in the fashion industry by partnering up with none other than Nike to design her own line of sneakers and matching apparel pieces. And let me tell you, it’s a match made in fashion heaven. Introducing the Nike Sabrina 1 Collection, a signature collection of sneakers and apparel, coming this summer!
Sabrina Ionescu
Sabrina is a force to be reckoned with both on and off the court. She’s a two-time Nancy Lieberman Award winner, the all-time NCAA leader in triple-doubles, and the first overall pick in the 2020 WNBA Draft. But that’s not all, she’s also an advocate for social justice and gender equality. In short, Sabrina is the kind of woman we all want to be.
So why is this such a big deal for Sabrina and women’s sports? For starters, it’s a sign that major brands like Nike are starting to take women’s sports seriously. After the recent drop of the Breanna Stewart x Puma – Stewie 1 “Four Time” sneakers, it appears that Nike is taking a page from Puma’s play book. Historically, women’s sports have been overlooked and undervalued in the media and in the fashion industry. But with partnerships like these, we’re starting to see a shift in the right direction.
But it’s also a big deal for Sabrina personally. As a woman who has worked hard to get where she is, she deserves to be celebrated and recognized for her achievements. And what better way to do that than by designing her own line of sneakers and apparel with one of the biggest names in fashion?
The Sabrina 1 Collection
When Nike approached Sabrina to collaborate on a new line of sneakers and apparel, it was a no-brainer. The Sabrina 1 sneakers are sleek, stylish, and functional. They also combine personalized features that are meaningful to Sabrina. The ‘S’ on the sneaker tongue is for Sabrina, and the ‘i’ on the heel of the shoes is for her last name Ionescu. Whether you’re running the court or just running errands, these sneakers will take you there in style.
But the Sabrina collection doesn’t stop there. Nike and Sabrina have also teamed up to design a range of matching apparel pieces. The collection includes a hoodie, T-shirts, shorts, and socks. The colourways include shades of purple, white, and black. Each piece is made with performance materials that will keep you comfortable and stylish no matter what you’re doing.
So, whether you’re a die-hard Sabrina fan or just someone who appreciates a good pair of sneakers, the Sabrina 1 collection is definitely worth checking out. Not only will you be supporting one of the most talented athletes in women’s sports today, but you’ll also be rocking some seriously stylish gear.
The Sabrina 1 collection is showing the world that women’s sports deserve a place in fashion. Sabrina is a force to be reckoned with both on and off the court. Stay tuned for updates on the exact date of the collection drop!
