Final Four hats and t-shirts weren’t the only noteworthy styles that Florida<\/strong>, Wisconsin<\/strong>, UConn<\/strong> and Kentucky<\/strong> were sporting in their celebratory net-cutting ceremonies over the weekend. Each of the teams included in the final quartet donned notable sneakers in their Elite 8 victories, punching their tickets to the culmination of the big dance in a wide array of silhouettes and colorways. Florida and Kentucky donned their usual Nike PEs, with a few individuals in separate styles. UConn chose to go the team-shoe route, sticking together in the Nike Zoom Crusader, while Wisconsin held it down for adidas Basketball by lacing up multiple renditions of red and white Three Stripe models. Arizona and Michigan State both took tough losses in player editions of their own. Dayton got colorful to culminate their magical run, and Michigan’s yellow sneakers shined brighter than their play.<\/p>\n
