Diary of a Sole Brotha, 2000-2005: In part III, Scoop Jackson shifts from adidas to Nike. The Ultimate Sneaker: Page 2 designs the basketball sneaker with everything. Shoe timeline: The history of sneakers.

We've sorted through the PF Flyers, the PRO-Keds, the Air Force I's and the Pro Model.

We've eliminated the Chucks, the Stan Smiths, the Dr. J's and the Air Zoom LeBrons.

Even the Air Jordan I couldn't make the championship round the Ultimate Sneaker Bracket.

We had three shoes in the championship round:

• the Air Jordan III (champion of the Old School Hoops Region);

• the Air Jordan XI (champion of the New School Hoops Region);

• and the Air Max 95 (champion of the Non-Hoops Region).

The readers voted and you've crowned the greatest sneaker of all time: the Air Jordan III.
