These feel absolutely fantastic. Light, grippy, and the quality/fit and finish of them is excellent. And they run true to size! The outsole seems to wear a tad quickly, but other than than they satisfied even my highest expectations!!
These shoes are awesome! I was a bit hesitant to buy them because I could not tell from the pictures if the soles were thin enough. I like shoes that have little to no support in them, and these are pretty close. I wished there was a way to reduce the insert of the shoe just a little bit more. Overall, though, these are great shoes and super comfortable! I highly recommend.

Love it! I got one in Gray/Brilliant Blue and I love it! I receive so many compliments when I wear those. When I have a meeting, I change to grey lacing and wear with sport-style suit, it makes the outfit so stylish! I am usually 7-7.5 and 7 fits perfectly.

I'm a big fan of Onitsukas. About half of my shoes are Onitsukas, just different colors and styles. They look great, feel very comfortable, even right out of the boxes. I have very wide feet (EE are slightly narrow or perfect fit for me), and these fit if I tie the laces loosely. (Though the looks are tiny bit weird, relatively. Still looks great!) If you are looking for comfort and looks, these shoes are the way to go.
Additional Brand Information
The history of Onitsuka Tiger™ shoes began with the establishment of Onitsuka Co. Ltd. in 1949. Based on the philosophy of bringing up sound youth through sports, the company has maintained the tradition of specializing in the manufacturing of sports shoes and clothing using original ideas and applying epoch-making techniques.
As the Japanese people recovered from the second world war and began to appreciate the benefits of sports, Onitsuka Tiger™ shoes were on their feet. The first basketball shoes in Japan had a tiger face design on the arch of the foot and this became Onitsuka's trademark. In the 1960's, Onitsuka Tiger™ shoes were worn not only by the Japanese, but also by top foreign athletes.
In 2001, ASICS America Corporation quietly resurrected the Onitsuka Tiger™ brand with original models of Onitsuka shoes and Onitsuka clothing updated in today's flavorful colors. Over the past few years, the Onitsuka Tiger™ brand has been enjoying a growing number of new, dedicated shoe followers along with a steady desire for Onitsuka clothing and Onitsuka bags, realized today on Zappos.com. Through sometimes secretive grassroots marketing efforts, ASICS® has been able to spread this word about this authentic comeback for Onitsuka Tiger™.
Now that the secret is out... Onitsuka Tiger™ is a growing and highly sought after brand with its ever-growing lineup of Onitsuka Tiger™ shoes, Onitsuka Tiger™ clothing and Onitsuka Tiger™ bags. There are more Onitsuka Tiger™ mens’s and Onitsuka Tiger™ women’s models just sitting in the ASICS® vault waiting to be re-released. The future is what this retro brand has to look forward to. Because ASICS® knows that there are people out there who don't need to run fast...they just want to look good.

I\'ve had this pair of Tiger shoes for about 2 months now and they\'ve been great! They are comfortable for walking and suit random athletic feats like waking up late and sprinting to class. My only complaint about feel is that I\'m not so used to tight fitting shoes, but they feel fine anyways. As for style they\'re pretty hip. I\'ve got black leather pair, but one guy from my classes sports the blue/orange very well.

I got these for my boyfriend in Insignia/Limelight. They're really stunning shoes and they fit him perfectly! The only thing that bothered me was the yellow tab at the heel is not down like the picture looks, but instead stood up like a flap. Otherwise, he really likes them!

Love the feel and fit of the shoe. They are aren't as narrow as depicted in the pictures. They look sharp! Ordered the white/lava combination and they look as pictured on the site. I normally wear a 10.5 and ordered 10.5, the shoes are true to size. Customer service was fantastic. Initially I ordered the Puma Speeder M; didn't like the feel and wanted to exchange them for the Mexico 66s. They were incredibly professional and helpful. This was my first purchase with Zappos and this will definitely not be my last!

Great shoe! Very comfortable. I was able to break them in after a week and a half or so. You can tie the laces in a permanent spot and use them like slip-ons or you can tie them up tight. I have gotten several compliments on my shoes, either that they were nice and retro looking, or very sleek and nice. I highly recommend these shoes!

Great pair of shoes, the best I've owned. Being a girl and buying a unisex pair of shoes I was concerned about the width and overall fit (since men sizes are usually larger). I have a long and very narrow foot so finding a slim pair of shoes was ideal. Best fit, super lightweight. Only negative comment I have is yeah, there's no arch support and overall not the best shoe if your wearing them to work and standing for 9-12 hours straight. Love the style, goes great with everything (I have the black pair with stripes). Definitely love Asics, always have and always will order them.

I bought this shoe for my son. He really likes the shoes for its looks and comfort. It fits true to size. He also has Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81. We bought the Mexico 66 for the leather uppers. They taper more at the toe than the Ultimate 81. As usual, Zappos sent the shoes came to us in 2-3 days.

I've had these for about a month and I love them. Sometimes the fit feels just a bit too snug, but I think I still have to break them in more. Zappos didn't have the color I originally wanted, but these still fit the bill just fine.

Just bought my third pair of these shoes in 4 years. I wear them almost daily, at work and on the weekends. They're super comfortable and look great with any kind of pants. They're narrow and my feet are pretty wide, but they break in pretty quickly. These shoes are durable to a point. Because my feet are so wide, I've had to replace the past two pairs because my pinky toe eventually wears a hole in the side of the leather. This took almost two years of constant usage, though. I wear either a 10.5 or an 11, depending on brand, and I take these in a 10.5. So if you're someone like me who's sort of between sizes like this, size down instead of up. I recommend these shoes to anyone who wants a comfortable, versatile shoe with a classic styling.

Great shoes! I have the dark blue with pale yellow stripes, love this combination and haven't seen it before in a sneaker. Moderate arch support, comfortable shoe for walking, maybe not all day. I'm a waitress and wouldn't work in them, but they are comfortable for less extreme use. Limited run! A really attractive shoe!

Love these shoes. I was worried they might run a bit too wide since they seem to be unisex, but they fit my narrow feet just fine. Run true to size and are so comfy. Might be ordering another from the huge color assortment they have.

I really like these shoes, so much that after a year (first ones still going strong) I bought another pair recently. I have wide feet, and they’re quite comfortable. I ride a bicycle with toe clips, and they are perfect for that: lightweight and just enough support. Plus, I like the way they look; and finally, they don’t stink like a lot of athletic/relaxation shoes!

These shoes are very well made and comfortable. My son has wide feet and it's always very difficult to find a comfortable pair of shoes for him. But Onitsuka Tiger is just perfect. I'll definitely buy it again.
