Nike Sabrina 4 Nike Nationals Release Date, Price, and Where to Buy

Nike Sabrina 4 Nike Nationals, style code IX5223-001

The Nike Sabrina 4 arrives in a Nike Nationals colorway built around black, Blue Glow, and Light Aqua, releasing August 27, 2026.

Sabrina Ionescu’s signature line has been one of the quieter success stories in basketball footwear. The first model landed in 2023 and immediately drew attention for something unusual, which was how many men were buying and hooping in a shoe launched out of the women’s program. NBA players wore it. High school guards wore it. It sat well below the price of most flagship basketball models, and it moved.

The fourth model continues that approach, and this pair ties to Nike Nationals, the tournament that caps Nike’s youth basketball circuit. The listed colorway reads Black/Multi-Color-Blue Glow-Light Aqua, with the brighter accents breaking up an otherwise dark upper.

This proves the Sabrina line has graduated from signature shoe to program shoe. Nike does not hand tournament colorways to models it is unsure about. Putting the Sabrina 4 on the feet of circuit finalists is the same playbook the brand has long run with its youth exclusives, and it points to where Nike thinks this silhouette lives long term.

For a guard who wants something low to the ground and traction-first without paying flagship money, this is an easy answer.

Release details: $135, releasing August 27, 2026, style code IX5223-001.

Where to buy: Nike SNKRS and Nike.com.
