| Posted: 10 Mar 2011 01:37 PM PST This Sunday, "The Fab Five," an ESPN Films Production, will air at 9PM ET. The highly-anticipated documentary will give viewers an in-depth look at the 1991 University of Michigan "Fab Five" freshmen. Although the Fab Five took the basketball world by storm in the early 90s, they are credited for much more that putting the ball in the hoop. The quintet wore long, baggy shorts, rocked black socks and, most of all, laced up a wide array of some of the best sneakers on the market at the time. To coincide with the upcoming documentary, our staff compiled some of the best, memorable sneaker moments from the Fab Five’s tenure at Michigan. Take a look at the Fab Five’s 10 Best Kicks.

Therefore, their sneakers had to be just as otherworldly as their style on the court. During the 1991-92 season, the Fab Five laced up the Tinker Hatfield-designed Nike Air Flight Huarache, a shoe inspired by a Mayan sandal. This shoe was not a hot seller when it first debuted on the shelves; however, this quintet undoubtedly made it cool to rock Huaraches.

| Nike Air Max Plus Black/Red-Green-Yellow Posted: 10 Mar 2011 01:28 PM PST Tuned Air is back with the Nike Air Max Plus Black/Red-Green-Yellow. A colorway reminiscent of the late Bob Marley, pardon me y’all, the great Bob Marley, adds fire to the forgotten classic. US customers will have to look overseas as EU Footlocker is the rasta and the monster crew. Will you be copping? Should the Air Max Plus return to the States? Tell us in the comment section.

| Nike Air Vengeance Plus Dark Grey/Varsity Purple Posted: 10 Mar 2011 01:13 PM PST Whether sitting on Lunar or rocking VNTG coloring, the Nike V-Series of runners has been on top of things all year. The latest Air Vengeance Plus keeps things going with its Dark Grey nylon and Black suede upper. Wolf Grey also helps out on the Mesh toe box. While all those neutral colors may make this shoe seem subdued, the purple leather forefoot panel and Swoosh, as well as the bright tab and laces, ensure this sneaker has some pop to it. Helping further are the purple paint splatters on the midsole and laces. You can scoop this springtime shoe now at Nice Kicks and Shop.NiceKicks.com.

| Video: Air Jordan 2011 “H vs. The Snake Charmer” Posted: 10 Mar 2011 10:58 AM PST The Air Jordan 2011 “Dominate Another Day” campaign has provided loads of laughs, thanks to Kevin Hart’s solid portrayal of H. Unfortunately for his contact Agent D3 however, Miami’s season has taken a turn for the worst recently. Nevertheless, H and D3 are preparing for a showdown with the Western Conference champs in the NBA Finals. In this video, we get a voyeuristic view of Hart’s character going 1-on-1 with The Snake Charmer. Well, in theory. Does he rise to the occasion and come up clutch?
