Category Performance Ratings
8.8
Traction
Translucent rubber outsole with grippy pattern. Excellent indoor grip on clean courts but dust sensitive and needs wiping.
8.0
Cushion
Cushlon 3.0 midsole with forefoot Zoom. Low, responsive, slightly bouncy ride with good court feel and adequate protection.
8.1
Materials
Textile, screen mesh, and synthetic leather upper. Lightweight and breathable, improved over last year but not premium and softens after break in.
8.3
Support
Flywire, sturdy heel counter, outrigger, and a small midfoot shank plate. Strong lockdown and lateral stability; shank may irritate some users.
8.3
Fit
Runs narrow and slightly long. Snug forefoot with secure heel lockdown. Minimal break-in and most find true to size.
0%
Outdoor
Translucent rubber and upper not built for harsh courts. Poor outdoor durability; not recommended for regular outdoor play.
small
large
Sizing
Generally true to size for most players. Consider a half size up for more room; a few reported needing a half size down.
narrow
wide
Width
Fits narrow to regular widths best. Forefoot is tapered and snug; wide footers may need a larger size or wider option.

Nike made the same shoe for the third year in a row. The Sabrina 3 only has minor upgrades. It performs well, and materials are improved, but I wouldn't pay full price.

The traction is solid on clean courts. The translucent outsole collects dust and slides if dirty. A quick wipe fixes the issue.
