Nike Sabrina 4: Sabrina Ionescu's Most Innovative Signature Shoe Yet

Women’s basketball star Sabrina Ionescu is back with the Sabrina 4, the newest chapter in her signature footwear and apparel line and the most technically advanced.

The Sabrina 4 shoe takes everything athletes appreciated in her first three models and builds on it with more speed, more comfort and more innovation. This includes a TPU Flyplate for explosive court reaction and responsive forefoot Air Zoom cushioning. On the apparel side, Nike is utilizing Aero-FIT cooling technology in Sabrina's signature jersey and shorts for the first time in basketball wear.

• Sabrina Ionescu debuted the Sabrina 4 shoe in May 2026 and released it on nike.com and at select retailers on July 17, 2026.
• The Sabrina 4 collection includes new apparel items that utilize Aero-FIT technology, the first time such cooling technology has been used in basketball wear.
• The Sabrina 4 shoe features a TPU Flyplate, used in many Nike racing and training models and reengineered specifically for basketball so hoopsters can react faster and stay stable during quick cuts.
• A responsive forefoot Air Zoom cushioning unit pairs with a soft Cushlon 3.0 midsole for a smooth, springy ride.
• The Sabrina 4 features new design details, including a new haptic print that nods to Sabrina’s Romanian heritage.

The Sabrina 4 introduces three key upgrades from previous models, making it the most modern one yet. A TPU Flyplate, inspired by a sprinter's launch off the starting blocks and reengineered for basketball, delivers explosive reaction time and court feel. A responsive forefoot Air Zoom unit and Cushlon 3.0 midsole provide the stability and plush cushioning needed for quick cuts.

“Seeing my shoe worn across all levels of the game tells me that we are creating shoes that basketball players really love. It takes a lot of work with my team at Nike to deliver footwear that can perform at this level and get better with each model,” Ionescu said. “Every year, I work on my game, finding any area of opportunity to add or improve. And that is exactly what we are doing with my shoe and my entire line — innovating in the right places while still keeping that Sabrina-feel that players everywhere know and love.”

And for the first time in the Sabrina line, Aero-FIT pinnacle cooling technology appears in the signature jersey and shorts, using yarn- and stitch-level engineering to help move air across the body and lift fabric off the skin.

• Plate: TPU Flyplate for explosive, court-specific reaction
• Cushioning: Forefoot Air Zoom unit + Cushlon 3.0 midsole
• Upper: Lightweight construction with haptic print in an 'S'-to-'I' motif
• Fit: Compression-molded vamp at forefoot, carved collar for mobility, perforated tongue for comfort and breathability
• Signature detail: Mirrored-finish Swooshes, encouraging athletes to see themselves in the shoe; vertical medial Swoosh in a nod to how Sabrina is growing women’s basketball

The Sabrina 4 apparel collection includes Sabrina’s signature jersey and shorts, plus versatile pieces designed for training, travel and recovery. It’s the first time it introduces Nike Aero-FIT, the brand’s most advanced cooling technology, to basketball. Open and closed mesh zones work together to help move air across the body and lift fabric off the skin — so no matter how the game heats up, you stay cool.
