Sabrina Ionescu Honors Her College Roots With the Nike Sabrina 2 "Oregon"

With the WNBA set to expand to Portland, Oregon, in 2026, the buzz around basketball prodigy Sabrina Ionescu possibly joining the city’s new team is growing. Ionescu, a celebrated alum of the University of Oregon, is deeply connected to the state, and with her contract with the New York Liberty expiring just as Portland prepares to welcome the new franchise, speculation is rife about her return. But long before we get there, the Swoosh will honor her Oregon legacy through her latest signature sneaker release, the Nike Sabrina 2 “Oregon.”

The Nike Sabrina 2 “Oregon” itself, while a part of this larger narrative, stands out with its distinctive design elements. Adorned in the University of Oregon’s green and yellow, the sneaker features unique design tweaks that make it a collector's item. The Swoosh logos on this model take on a more rounded, vintage shape, extending up near the collar, differentiating it from previous model iterations. Additionally, the tongue swaps out the usual leather for suede, adding a textural depth that echoes the Oregon Ducks' mascot, further tying the shoe to Ionescu's alma mater.

Enjoy an official look at the Nike Sabrina 2 “Oregon” below, and watch out for these to arrive at select Nike stockists on October 24, 2024.
