Nike’s Sabrina 2 “Slurpee” Is a Sweet Farewell to Her Signature Era

Before we start talking about Sabrina Ionescu’s next chapter with the Nike Sabrina 3, the Swoosh is dropping one final memory-soaked colorway of the Sabrina 2—and it tastes like victory with a hint of brain freeze.

Launching May 17, 2025, the Nike Sabrina 2 “Slurpee” brings Baltic Blue, Light Crimson, and Glacier Blue together in a way that’s more than just a pretty upper. This isn’t just about color blocking—it’s about growing up, grinding, and treating yourself on the way home from the park.

Inspired by Ionescu’s childhood tradition of hitting 7-Eleven with her brothers after hoop sessions, this colorway isn’t just a vibe—it’s a ritual. If you’ve ever hustled on a blacktop court in 90-degree heat, then clutched your Slurpee like it was a trophy, you know this story. That’s what this shoe feels like.

Check out her story on @sneakernews where she spills how she and her brother hustled for Slurpees—and the flavor combo that made it onto the Sabrina 2 “Slurpee.”

The design leans all the way into it: icy blue throughout the upper and sole, cherry red overlays as bold as your favorite Slurpee flavor swirl, and silver Swooshes that shimmer like the sun bouncing off the convenience store window. There’s even a brain-freeze motif hidden on the sockliner and a lowercase “i” on the heel—personal nods that say this pair was made with care, not just for clicks.

But don’t get it twisted—this isn’t all sweet tooth and nostalgia. Nike built this pair with real tech: full-length Cushlon for that plush land-and-go feel, a forefoot Zoom Air unit for bounce during cuts and drives, and containment bands that keep your foot locked when the tempo turns up. It’s lightweight. It’s court-ready. It’s built for Sabrina’s game—and yours.

Resell Radar: A Sleeper Hit in the Making

And if you’re in the resell game? Watch this one. Earlier Sabrina 2s like “The Bridge” saw price bumps of 30–35% within weeks. With the Slurpee’s unique backstory and limited launch, this might be the sleeper hit collectors didn’t see coming—especially if Nike decides to ice things out with a 7-Eleven collab or pop-up (which, let’s be honest, would be genius).

Bigger Than a Shoe: Culture, Timing & Ionescu’s Moment

The timing couldn’t be better. With the 2025 WNBA season set to be one of the league’s biggest yet—and with Ionescu leading a new generation of superstars—this release lands at the intersection of sport, story, and street culture. The Sabrina 2 “Slurpee” isn’t just a goodbye to a sneaker model—it’s a thank-you to childhood memories, local courts, and corner store victories.
