Just got mine and love them!
I recently received mine. They look just as good as they do online, but better. They feel comfortable, but if you're flat-footed like me try not to wear these too much. Also, these shoes are very casual and stylish.

Picked these up after I found out the others I really wanted were out of stock. I'm glad I got these; I can't imagine I'd be any happier with anything else. I wear these primarily with darker jeans, they look great with t-shirts, polos, and even an untucked button down for going out. They fit true to size, and broke in pretty quickly. They're so light, they're very comfortable. Highly recommend.

Stylish!
ASICS: I know you offer wide variations of some of your shoes - why not this popular model? I typically wear New Balance (12EE), Salomon, or Merrell and find those to be very comfortable width-wise. These things on the other hand are narrow! I ordered a half size up (12.5) based on reviewers that warned these are narrow and still they are bulging at the sides. I almost sent them back immediately when I saw how narrow they were (my feet were obviously wider than even the outside dimensions - they honestly looked like ballerina shoes). I figured I'd give them a try anyway and try to break them in since they looked great and were all leather. Aside from that complaint, I really like the shoes. The style is great, and the padding in the sole is impressive considering how thin it is. Quality (stitching, finish, material) looks to be above average in this range, and the colors (black/brown version) were exactly what I was expecting based on the picture. I'd recommend these if you have narrow feet.

Overall a good shoe. Not much arch support. Also, the tan and blue ones are a little darker than the picture portrays. Asics are all I get now so I always like finding a new pair. Personally I like the Onitsuka Tigers the best. Very comfortable and stylish. So, all in all these shoes aren't bad, but nothing special either.

Still get compliments. I've had these shoes for a year now. As dirty and worn out as they are now, I still get compliments. They go great with jeans or shorts. My feet are a wide, for some reason (I don't remember why) I ordered half a size up and they fit great. They get a 4 because they aren't the best shoes to do lots of walking or running in. At least not for me. I think it lacks some arch support. But slip in some foot orthotics and I'm sure you'll be great. If you want something to fit perfectly, like walking on a mountain of clouds all day type of comfortable try the Asics Stormer in white.

Great looking shoe, but it is very narrow. Buy a half or full size up and you'll be okay if you have wide feet.

Love the design -
I've had mine for about a month now and nothing stands out as problematic. These shoes run narrow and long. I normally wear an 8.5 or 9 and ordered the 8.5. I have plenty of room for my toes but the sides are quite tight on my slightly wider feet. Great style.

You can't beat the styling of these kicks. I bought the white and black ones. These are good for going out in and making an impression but don't try to go running in them. I say get em though.

Fantastic!
These are great! My g/f got sick and tired of me only buying Vans and skate shoes. These are every bit as comfortable and as light as my Vans Rowley's. I have Wide feet and these fit me fine after a couple days of breaking in. I'll definitely buy another pair when these get old.

Wonderful Shoe -
Looks great I get compliments on them every day. They took a couple of days to break in to feel good though, but once they did they're really comfortable. I definitely recommend this shoe as a good walking shoe.

I love the shoe. Was a little bigger than I was expecting and it fades really easy. I am only using them to walk around in, no activity at all. The style is what I was going for.

Love Them, First Impression -
These are some truly great shoes. I got the black and grey in size 13 and they feel quite nice. I am a very narrow-footed individual so these shoes may be a little thin for some. The style on these shoes is great. They are truly a work of art. I love the feel of the suede and the grey compliments the black very nicely. The kanji on the back of the shoe is a very stylish touch and adds character. The arch is very comfortable and the laces are exactly the correct length.

Slick looking -
I usually wear 7 1/2, but for this shoe I bought "Euro 39/US 6". It fits perfectly. I love how it looks. I wanted a shoe to wear with jeans, but that it wasn't my normal white sneaker. I got it in this shoe. It was a little uncomfortable at first because the sole is very thin, so I felt that I was walking almost barefoot. The feeling goes away in a couple of days. I love how they look! Sporty, but a little classy too.

Awesome Shoe -
Guys, you should definitely buy shoes from Zappos. I highly recommend this site because of their excellent customer service. I ordered a 10.5 ASICS Shihan & trade black and grey shoe, though I wear size 10; after reading a few reviews on the website. But found out that 10.5 is way bigger than I expected. I had a web chat with a Zappos customer service representative. Within no time (within two days, I remember!!!), I received another pair size 10. This shoe looks and feels great. I highly recommend this shoe to everyone and the site too!

Looks better than it feels.
I plan to use the shoe for martial arts activities. It looks good, but the comfort is so so. I has very little arch support and sole cushion. Width is narrow and will challenge the D width foot (maybe it will stretch over time). Having said all this, I like the shoe, but I felt it was bit overpriced.

New Shoes!!
I really love my new shoes. I got the white ones with black and red. Not only are they sharp to look at, they are very comfortable. I am a hairstylist and am on my feet most of the day. My feet have not ached once since I started wearing them. I love them!!

Very smart sneaker -
The Shihan has an elegant profile, has nice details like the Asics logo on the toe and the Kanji on the heel. It's also very comfortable and nicely priced! I got the black, but also liked the look of the dark brown. Re: sizing, Onitsuka Tiger/Asics run the same as Adidas or Puma, so don't worry about getting a half-size if that's what you normally wear.

This particular shoe model is awesome in comfort, style, and price range. I recommend it to all who love tennis like shoes or just for style. It may feel a bit big for others by a half size. If you have narrow feet it should be fine because you will need the length.

Great Shoe -
Very happy with these shoes, not to mention the usual lighting fast service from Zappos. These are thin soled and fit like a glove, a combination which is excellent when you need positive feedback from the ground up. Excellent driving shoe. The fit is excellent for me- I have a narrow heel compared to my instep, which usually means a shoe pinches my toes or allows my heel to slip around a bit... These are perfect!

Comfortable, looks good and it fit perfectly. I had order two other shoes, but their 11 wasn't big enough. But this one was right on. And the look on the pic was the same of the shoe (I got the brown one)

 |  | To my Ultimate Friends at Zappos. Hello you beautiful people! My Eric Michael boots just arrived, couldn't be happier, the Little Black Boot quest is always such a happening adventure with you guys. Not only do I love my boots, I love Zappos! This overnight shipping is amazing, having ordered these late late LATE yesterday, how do you do it! Zappos storks? Shot from cannons? Men in Black??? We've written before, lamenting our departure from California to the N'West. Every box from you is like a breath of sunshine from home. My boys and I tell EVERYONE about Zappos, it's just crazy how many people have never heard of you. A delight to spot your ad in a skateboarding magazine. My skater boys wear Keen to the park. Thank you so much for your consistent excellence. If you ever need a Little Black Boot expert, let me know! My boots are dancing! Huge hugs to my favorite people at Zappos from your loyal family of Californian dreamers, Steph and the Boys. |  | ~ Stephanie B., October 23 2009
