With the polls open for both coasts of the Sneaker News March Madness Non-OG Air Jordan Tournament, it’s time to focus in on the sixteen Air Jordans appointed to the middle-regions of the field. We’ll start with the Southwest Regional, led by the Air Jordan VI ‘Olympic’ at the #1 seed and solidified by two popular ‘Cool Grey’ renditions, the rarest Air Jordan Premio, and a slew of other hitmakers. The polls for the Southwest are now officially open so make sure you place your vote, and if you haven’t voted in the East or West region yet, we’ve got the direct links for you just below. Remember, the polls will stay open until 11:59 PM EST this Sunday, March 18th.

MATCHUP #3 – Classic ‘Cool Grey’ with a touch of orange, or the first-ever Air Jordan Retro colorway released for one of its prized athletes?
[3] Air Jordan III ‘Cool Grey’ vs. [6] Air Jordan II ‘Melo’
-
MATCHUP #4 – The most limited Air Jordan Premio release goes head to head with one of the simplest yet most effective colorways of Air Jordan Retro history.
[4] Air Jordan IX ‘Premio’ vs. [5] Air Jordan VIII ‘Black/Chrome’
-
Thunder Bulls Grey (I agree, people hype grey Js for some reason but these are one of the best.) Chrome
Okay this wasn't that hard. Thunder win just because they Olympics aren't OG but if they were that was a easy win. Raging Bull cause they will break more necks. Cool grey III cause there cool grey 3's! C'Mon Man!!! And the Bin XI easssy! Quality remember people, "Non Og"!!
Six, four, 2, 8 Are my picks. I don't like either all red shoes or cool grey shoes. But lesser. Of two evils means 4 wins.
its like you bitches are voting for the sneakers you HAVE,...quit that shit,...raging bull V's over cool grey 4's?!?!...i should slap you
them cool grey fours are garbage compared to them raging bulls i mean even the colorways are true to the shoe cuz them 5s are straight fire and those 4s are lukewarm
Y'all some rookies on the shoe game. The olympics is an OG AJ. They're not suppose to be competing.
No there not dumbass they came out in 2000. When did the vi come out? 1991 smh fake sneakerheads
The olymppic 6 came out in 2000, almost 10 years after the OG 6 came out. How do you figure its OG colorway??????
SMH......................... the olympic 6s from 2000 are a Retro+, the only OG 6s are both the infrareds, sport blues, carmines and maroons
nothing against the shoes, but any premio JB put out was lame...well the 2 was okay but thats about it.
