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.

Great pair of shoes. I love the insoles. Very comfortable when walking. I used them the first time on a football weekend. No problems. Thanks.

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.

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.

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.

The first week or two I needed band-aids on my heels. Now that the leather has softened up, they are very comfortable as long as you don't need arch support. They slip on easily now and fit like a glove. If you need inserts I might suggest going up half a size.

This is my second pair of Mexico 66s I have purchased. My first pair was a half size too big which were pretty comfortable to wear for over a year. My second pair I purchased a half size smaller, which fits better but looks a little odd. Overall its comfortable shoe. The only thing that bothers me is the Tiger tag in the back of the shoe. That tag always sticks up which doesn\'t make the back of the shoe look all that great.

Great look, but wore out too quickly. Love the look of the shoe, but it simply wasn't as durable as you'd expect for the price of a canvas shoe. This is basically an indoor soccer shoe, so it doesn't hold up well when worn as a casual shoe worn in an urban environment. Most of the shoe is canvas, with some leather accents. After 10 wearings, the shoe was showing visible signs of wear, including seams that were starting to come loose. After 40 wearings (about 75 days later), the shoe is basically worn-out. The sole is worn-through to the colored part, 80% of the tread is gone, and the stitching at several of the leather "arcs" is coming out. As expected in an indoor soccer shoe, it is not particularly comfortable; basically no support whatsoever. You definitely "feel the road" beneath your feet.

Pretty comfy, true to size shoe. My only concern is the grip. Really bad in rainy weather. There basically is no tread so don\'t wear on rainy days!

These are awesome shoes. They look great, they're comfortable enough to wear around all day, and they have great arch support. I've had them about 6 months and my only beef was the flap on the back. It's very soft leather and it never stays down. Ever. My solution was to put some super glue on the very top of the rim underneath the flap and it worked way better than I expected. They never pop up anymore and it looks like they were made that way.

Wow these are awesome shoes. They are not good for heavy duty athletic activity but they are really cute and nice for casual wear. The birch/indian ink/latte matches with almost everything

These shoes are one of the best I have ever worn! I have a wide foot with high arches and so I have a hard time finding shoes that fit correctly for me. The first time I put them on, I couldn\'t believe it. There is enough give on the side of the shoes that there is no pinching. Also, the low back on the shoe is nice for me, too, as many shoes in the past have worn on my Achilles tendon causing great pain. Very comfortable, and stylish!

I just spent the whole day in these shoes and I must say, I'm impressed. These shoes fit great (although they do run a little small. I ordered a half size up), look good, and make for a great walking shoe. My only complaint about these shoes is that the Tiger flap in the back won't stay down, but that can be easily fixed with a little super glue. Great shoe overall, and I would recommend to anyone!

Nice Shoe. Great shoe. However, they do run small. If I would have known I would have ordered mine a half size bigger. They are very versatile.

I just received my pair of the onitsuka tiger mexico 66 in the white/lava color and I couldnt be happier. I ordered them at 4pm and received them the next day at 10am. Overall amazing look and fit. Extremely light and comfy. Tons of compliments. Amazing service. Zappos is by far the best online shoe source.
