While fall belongs to football, spring belongs to hoops. The madness is about to begin, you’re filling out your bracket, and you’re watching for that 12-5 seed upset. While the winners of March Madness aren’t determined by popular opinion, we decided to call on our Marc Nolan community to determine which of our new spring styles would win a tournament if it were up to them. Our Instagram followers voted between each of the matchups to bring you the top dogs. We were surprised by some of your picks, but that goes to show that just like basketball teams, you can’t underestimate any style — no matter the season. Here are the winners of each round and a little bit more about them.

Dylan came out on top this round, boasting a mix of colors, textures and style. This blend of elements makes the lace ups extremely versatile — suitable for the workplace or the dance floor.Donovan Cognac Wingtip Chelsea Boots v. Harry Olive Chelsea Boots
In this boot-versus-boot matchup, sumptuous sheepskin suede triumphed over classic calfskin leather. Harry advanced to the next round with his one-of-a-kind olive hue and classic Chelsea boot style.
