For five years, Urlfreeze News has launched the most comprehensive March Madness style tournaments in an effort to name the single greatest sneakers from various categories. It started in 2010 with a broad spectrum of shoes which resulted in the Air Jordan 11 being named the greatest sneaker of all-time. In following years, we moved to LeBrons and Foamposites as well, and the outcomes weren’t too surprising considering the runaway winners were also the pre-tourney favorites. But this year’s tournament, which highlights the entire catalog of Nike Kobe signature sneakers, can end in a number of ways, and the greater the number of possible outcomes, the more excitement – and upsets – you can expect. Check out the fully unveiled bracket here and check out all the Round 1 voting polls below – they close on Sunday, March 22nd at 11:59 PM EST.
