Nike embraces powerful narratives with the Nike Sabrina 3 “Silencer” releasing this Fall 2025.

Sabrina Ionescu and Kobe Bryant both making a silencing gesture during Team USA games — Sabrina Ionescu and Kobe Bryant deliver iconic “silencer” gestures while representing Team USA, each quieting the crowd in clutch moments.

The simple colorway is a nod to some monumental moments in Sabrina Ionescu career. The release itself hasn’t been officially tied to an event by Nike, but the name of the shoe speaks for itself. Most will remember Ionescu’s clutch performance for Team USA against Belgium where she nailed a late game three-pointer to silence the home crowd. As she hit the shot, she pointed to the scoreboard, then silenced the crowd with a finger to her lips. The game was already sealed but it counted due to the point system in the Olympics. The entire celebration seemed like more than an emotional release, it was purposeful and brave. The theme also brings to mind Kobe Bryant’s four-point play to silence a crowd in the 2008 Olympic final. Both moments have served to further build this legacy.

Nike maintains the performance makeup of the Sabrina 3 while dialing in unique aesthetic details with this edition. The upper is mixed with Summit White and Photon Dust tones, while translucent aqua cables and a black Iron Grey Swoosh complete the details. A Washed Coral midsole and outsole bring a soft gradient to the mix, while a muted yellow forefoot overlay adds in a touch of contrast.

On the inside, the Sabrina 3 offers the same performance for her on the court. A combination of Cushlon 3.0 and Phylon dual-density foam maintain a responsive cushioning and stable support. Cable lockdown system gives her a secure lockdown in any direction. Ionescu’s signature branding is also present with a stitched “S” on the tongue and a “20” stripe on the heel.

For basketball fans who have been following her career, or sneaker fans who love a clean pastel sneaker with a purpose, the Sabrina 3 “Silencer” is a standout release both on and off the court.
