These shoes are the most comfortable casual shoes around. The leather used on these is genuine and high quality. My only complaint is that the sole wears down rather quickly and once they do, they have no traction AT ALL (I really mean it!) on wet glossy floors and ice. However, they are so comfortable I continue to wear them anyways and have risked falling my arse numerous times! I have been seeing some canvas models popping up recently and really hope that they are not going to be phasing out the leather ones in favor of these. If you want to get the most comfort out of these shoes, you must go for an all-leather model!

Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Shoe Width: Felt true to width
I love this shoes! I am a woman, and had been looking for some sneakers that would look a bit more dressy. I swore off of my purchasing suede. I think it looks worn out too quickly. The problem is that most of the fashion sneakers have suede. So I found these with mostly dark colors and no suede and they are perfect for being super comfortable but not too sports-like.

Love them! The shoes fit true to size and have more arch support than expected, although this does not get in the way of their sleek look.

These are very cute shoes. I purchased them for my grand daughter, age 17, for our trip to India. She never had them off her feet for two weeks. They were very comfortable and fit very true to size.

I bought these shoes as a gift for my son. He absolutely loves them. Says they are comfortable and fit well. They look good with jeans and khakis, adds a dressier look than regular tennis shoes.

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.

Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: No arch support Shoe Width: Felt narrower than markedGreat looking shoe, runs a bit narrow - I ordered a 6.5 (I usually wear a 6.5), but 7 fit better. A little narrow, but comfortable and super-stylish. A fun shoe.

I love these shoes. Classic Tiger style with really cool fabric. I got the white ones with canvas and totally dig the rainbow specks on the canvas. No arch support, but a great walking shoe regardless. I'm on my feet all day at work and my feet still feel great after 13 hours. I had to rip out the insoles and put in my own prescription orthoses, but it's not a problem. Would recommend this shoe to anyone who wants hip kicks without sacrificing comfort.

My 16-year-old saved his minimum wage paycheck to buy these shoes. The fit was true-to-size, they are lightweight and comfortable and look cool, but not like you're trying too hard (which is important when one is in high school).

These sneakers are extremely lightweight, very comfortable, very easy to put on, and they look good, to boot. I've owned at least 7 different pairs of Onitsuka Tigers. I haven't owned another type since the first one I bought (about 8-10 years ago).

This shoe is fabulous! I ordered the off-white colored ones with the green and red stripes, super cute, and so comfortable! Comfortable from the minute I put them on, haven't taken them off since (and I'm painfully picky, so trust me, no breaking these puppies in, they're great). Wish I could afford to get every color.

I love these shoes, I normal wear Converse Chuck Taylors and these fit very similar to them but these are way more comfortable. They feel very true to size and require no break in time at all they are perfect right away. Also they have excellent traction.

I bought these for my 14 yr. old daughter who is an Asics fan. Onitsuka Tiger is the line of Asics she likes best. These are a fun brown plaid with orange-red stripes and laces. She loves these shoes! We will definitely be buying more!

These shoes have a great fit and are true to its size. I do a lot of walking and I find these excellent on my knees. I especially like the back-flap for an extra tug. It's not only stylish, but it also helps ensure my foot-place.

As a flat footed individual, these are the best performance shoes I\\\'ve had since my New Balance 574s. Do not let the thin construction fool you. Comfort, flexibility, and durability are 5/5.

What a great shoe. First time out of the box it was so glove-like to my feet. I own a lot of Retro type shoes and most of them need some time (even if minimal) to adjust to, but not this one. As for Zappos\' customer-care, well by now it must be legendery. Buy with comfidence.

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.
