This year we thought we'd do things a little differently when it comes to the overall winner. Each of the categories (excluding new model) winners will battle against each other to see who comes out on top. So here we go.

This category is always one of my favourites, and throws up some great models that are bound to be huge in 2015. Let's just get into it then.

2014 really has been the year of the collaboration, with more and more retailers and designers getting involved with some of the biggest names in the sneaker world, such as Nike, ASICS, Saucony and adidas. Here we have our 7 best.

As always, Nike continue to produce some of the best shoes of the year, and no doubt always will. However, they have definitely dropped off this year, with some brands taking the glory of 2014. Nonetheless, we've got some great kicks in this category.

adidas came into 2014 with a bang, with releases like the ZX Flux being taken into the public's hearts instantly. It's proved to be one of the best years in recent history for adidas; check out their bangers below.

In my opinion, the ASICS releases throughout the year have been a little dry in terms of what they usually produce. But what they usually produce is outstanding, so 2014 was still a huge year for them, cementing their status as one of the front runners of the sneaker scene.

It's been a relatively quiet year for New Balance, compared to last year at least. But there has still been some absolute bangers, both out of their own designers and part of collaborations. Here we shortlist the best, allowing you to vote for your favourite.
