It’s Friday and time for a good laugh to lead you into the weekend. Much thanks to BuzzFeed and eBay for collaborating on what could possibly be the worst sneaker list of all time. The power publisher<\/del> list-builder and marketplace (who has ENDLESS amounts of data) put together a list of the 15 best limited sneakers of all time and, well, from the get go it was pretty apparent this list was not put into anyone who works in the sneaker biz, reads sneaker sites, or has any sneaker collection to speak of. \u00a0Long in the short, it is a case study for one of the biggest disasters in sponsored content in the history of the web. Grab some popcorn and peep the trainwreck below. \u00a0The captions are worth the read.<\/p>\n

15.ASPCA Vans<\/h2>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“These shoes are not only cool, but they help spread awareness for the ASPCA. How could you go wrong?”<\/p>\n

14. Nike Air Foamposite One \u201cEggplants\u201d<\/h2>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“No one really knows why they\u2019re called \u201ceggplants,\u201d but maybe you can learn a little more and figure it out for yourself\u2026”<\/p>\n

13. Nike Hyperdunk Marty McFly<\/h2>\n

<\/strong>Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“Take a trip back in time to the days when you thought you\u2019d be able to slam dunk. Or just look extra fly as you walk around\u2026Mc<\/i>Fly, that is.”<\/p>\n

12. Black Sabbath Converse Chuck Taylors<\/h2>\n

Buzzfeed: \u00a0<\/strong>“These special-edition shoes are as rock \u2018n\u2019 roll as it gets. \\m\/”<\/p>\n

11. Air Jordan DMP<\/h2>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“Check out this shoe to see just how much Jordan\u2019s legacy (plus some snazzy gold trim) can make your mouth water. Seriously.”<\/p>\n

\n
10.<\/span> Nike LeBron 8 \u201cPre-Heat\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>\u00a0“Only something to do with LeBron could convince people to wear shoes known for their pink and aqua color combination. Will they have the same effect on you?”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

9.<\/span> Air Jordan III Retro 88<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>\u00a0“Ever find yourself reminiscing about the days when Nike put those air bubbles in your shoe for that extra \u201coomph\u201d? Well, don\u2019t worry \u2014 it\u2019s back, and as retro and bouncy as it ever was.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

8.<\/span> Nike Air Foamposite One \u201cGalaxy\u201d<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“It\u2019s so tempting to talk about how \u201cout of this world\u201d these shoes are, but that doesn\u2019t even really do them justice.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

7.<\/span> Supreme x Nike SB Dunk Low 2012<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“There\u2019s a reason why there aren\u2019t many of these left on the market. This 10th-anniversary celebration of the originals have that modern appeal while still holding onto the retro charm. At least, that\u2019s what WE think.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n
6.<\/span> Limited Edition AC\/DC Chuck Taylor Converse<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“The quintessential shoes for your first day at the School of Rock.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

5.<\/span> Reebok Kamikaze II<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“These guys were originally released in the 90\u2019s, so if you\u2019re feeling nostalgic they\u2019re the shoes for you.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

4.<\/span> ADIDAS STAR WARS ZX 800 BOBA FETT<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“Okay, they\u2019re a little nerdy. But man, how cool<\/i> are they?”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

3.<\/span> Adidas ObyO Jeremy Scott<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“Got a little kid in your life that you want to pass on the sneakerhead tradition to? These Jeremy Scott shoes are the ultimate combination of sneaker and art<\/i>. Want a pair for yourself? There is a whole line of Jeremy Scott flame sneakers for every member of the family.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

2.<\/span> Supra Skytop 2 Samikaze<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“The perfect shoe for someone who wants something a little different!”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

1.<\/span> Nike Air Mag<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Buzzfeed: <\/strong>“These are pretty much only practical for time travel, in addition to turning heads. We already touched on this earlier, so hopefully you\u2019re getting the message by now, but any shoes from Back to the Future<\/i> are seriously cool. You won\u2019t be able to get enough of these.”<\/p>\n
