The Nike Sabrina 2, crafted with 9-year-old osteosarcoma survivor Sophia Jenkins, adds a playful and heartwarming touch to the Doernbecher Freestyle Collection’s 20th anniversary. Reflecting Sophia’s joyful personality, the design bursts with uplifting details and vibrant tones, encapsulating her “happy-go-lucky” spirit.
Sophia’s Sabrina 2 design radiates positivity from every angle. The outsole features whimsical smiley faces, hearts, and flowers, with a clever Swoosh-turned-mouth adding a unique twist. Her favorite keepsakes take center stage, with the print of her cherished fuzzy blanket recreated on the sock-liner and her beloved pickle plushie making a cameo on the vamp.
Dominated by a cheerful palette of purples and pinks, the sneaker showcases Sophia’s bright outlook on life. To tie everything together, each pair of the Sabrina 2 “Doernbecher” includes a friendship bracelet kit—a nod to Sophia’s love for Taylor Swift and the friendship bracelet trend popularized by Swift’s Eras Tour.
The Nike Sabrina 2 “Doernbecher” by Sophia Jenkins will be released on January 23rd, 2025, via SNKRS and select Nike retailers.
Priced at $130, this heartfelt design and the rest of the DB20 collection support the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital and celebrate the inspiring stories of young patients like Sophia.
