I’m a fan of Sabrina Ionescu, and I’m more than stoked that her shoe line is the pseudo successor to the Kobe line based on shape, design, and performance. I’m also digging how accessible these are like how Kobe’s were a few years ago.

OH HAPPY DAAAAY!!!! Shoutout to that Sister Act 2 cut!!! I honestly LOVE what they are doing with the Sabrina shoes….yes they look like kobes but I don’t see it as a bad thing, especially if it embodies the essence as well and are straight up performers! I really like the look of the Sabrina 2s. regardless of aesthetic similarities, I think they’ve done a good job of keeping it clean. Looking forward to the performance review. As for the question of the day, I guess between the two choices, I’ll tolerate the lip smacking, simply for what Chris stated as his reasons. Both are not ideal because they make me wanna get violent…so I’ll choose to eat alone in the bathroom like Kady Heron. 😆🤷🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️

Great work as always! You got my like and my comment for the algorithm.

I like the design and i understand where its coming from . A lot of players were inspired by Kobe so the design is similar but the question is does it hold up the same in terms of materials. I mean you cant expect a protro kobe to be the same with these other than design but I hope that other than the design , the Sabrina line could shine on its own terms and seperate itself well enough and have a reputation of being a sabrina other than a Kobe inspired shoe
