We asked each of the Snkrs Day staffers which shoe they liked best from the past few days and you may be surprised by the results. From Jordans to New Balances, a wide variety of kicks made this installment of Staff Picks. Which was your favorite? Head to the comments section and let us know.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Matt Halfhill<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Shame on every fan in the Quicken Loans arena chanting, &#8216;Scottie Pippen&#8217;, implying that he was anything less of historic or amazing.<\/p>\n<p>Last time I checked the man won six rings and lead our country to gold twice in the OIympics. That is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of.<\/p>\n<p>The Air More Uptempos didn&#8217;t have Scottie&#8217;s name or number on the box or the upper, but ask anyone, young and old, these shoes were the Pippens.<\/p>\n<p>Nike Air More Uptempo Black\/White<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p><strong>Allison Halfhill<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>While I agree with most of the comments about the leather quality not living up to the OG or even 2003 standards, these are still my all-time favorite Jordans and I am happy to see them return.  Hopefully they will come in a 9C so that both Lil&#8217; Halfhills can rock them.<\/p>\n<p>Air Jordan 3 White\/Cement Grey<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p><strong>George Kiel <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>I love when Nike applies an all-black, murdered out color scheme to LeBron&#8217;s signature sneakers. The all-black versions of the Zoom LeBron VI and the Air Max LeBron VII were among my favorite and this is easily my favorite LeBron 8 color scheme so far.<\/p>\n<p>Nike LeBron 8 Black\/Anthracite<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p><strong>Alex Kroviak<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>This is my second time picking this shoe as my staff pick because in all honesty, it&#8217;s on my top ten list for this year. It&#8217;s super high quality, easy to wear (but still loaded with details) and the easily one of the best New Balances of 2010.<\/p>\n<p>Burn Rubber x New Balance MT580<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p><strong>Ian Stonebrook<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Last year I was a day late and $130 short on the &#8220;Chaos&#8221; Kobe Vs. This year will be different.<\/p>\n<p>Nike Zoom Kobe VI &#8220;Chaos&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p><strong>Greg Grovey<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We have seen a plethora of Air Max 1 colorways as of late, but none as eye-catching as this one. The simple color blocking on these shoes makes them a good look without taking the attention off the classic silhouette.
