Great, comfortable shoe! I usually wear Adidas Sambas, but the newer models are not quite as comfy as the older ones. This shoe is my new favorite.

I have two pairs of these and one for casual wear, and one for running. As has been said, they don't have arch support. That's why I'm using them for running as a supplement to barefoot running and runs in my Vibrams. It takes some getting used to, but they're perfect for minimalist running if you're into that sort of thing.

Like these shoes need anymore reviews! After 2 years of ownership, I figured I'd finally document a review. I love these shoes. They've lasted comfortably for 2 years! They run as labeled length wise but are a bit narrow width wise. A great stylish, comfortable shoe every one should own.

I buy these Tigers because of the way they look. They are beyond cool, with their ultra low-profile design. They're sexy shoes with a definite European flair to them (though they are Japanese by design). You see these frequently around Paris on the feet of the younger generation. Even though I'm in my 40's they still look cool. You just can't find a cooler-looking, old-school style sneaker. I get compliments all the time. This, I may add, is my second pair, with 2 more on deck. Even my 14 year old son fell in love with them since nobody at his school wears them. So they have a certain "hard-to-find" cool factor that makes them more doable to many. Having said all that, they are not the most supportive shoe out there. In fact, they really are just for looks. You could run in them because they're so light, but they have zero arch support so it would be somewhat like running barefoot. The sole is flat and thin, of course. Still, they're like a feather and they look great. If you want serious running or walking shoes, these aren't them. But if you want some cool shoes, look no further.

I love this shoe, but find it runs large. I usually wear a 11.5/12 US or 45 European. The website only showed US sizes. I ordered the 12 and discovered it was too big. Went down to US 11 (which was a 45 European) to get the right fit. I suggest Zappos shows the US and European sizes to help in ordering. As other reviews have indicated, this shoe seems to have good arch support for a shoe that looks to be flat.

About Onitsuka Tiger by Asics
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 love this shoe. I wear (and bought) a Women's 12N. I bought it as a comfy, casual shoe that wouldn't look so athletic. The material is a soft, thick felt, and goes great with jeans or casual pants. I have been wearing it nonstop since it arrived! I will consider adding an insole for some arch support and don't anticipate it affecting the fit.

I love my new kicks! These are just what I was looking for in a casual, yet hip looking sneaker. Easy to dress up, great with jeans... Others have complained about the tabs that stick out of the back, but it's easy enough to just tuck them in and they go unnoticed. Not sure how athletes ran with these in the Olympics, with such a thin sole, but they are super comfy for walking around town. Love 'em.

this is my new favorite shoe! I hope they never stop making these, and Zappos never stops selling them because they are incredibly comfy, and they look killer. They're excellent quality too. I used to have Sambas, and those don't even compare to these Tigers. Finally, I had to order a 1/2 size smaller than my normal size for the perfect fit. Buy these shoes (from Zappos of course!).

These are my first pair of Onitsuka Tiger, and they are amazingly comfortable. I also thought that getting white would get dirty right away, but my shoes still look brand new even after using them when it rains.

Can you guys help me with the size? I usually wear 47, US 12 and in cm it's 30, sometimes 30.5. Zappos size chart suggests to buy US 14? Can one of you who both size 12 tell me what does it say in cm. Thanks!

These shoes are super cute and have that "euro" style that I was looking for. I was a little hesitant because I thought it would look too masculine but when I received them and tried them on, it was perfect! I normally wear a size 5.5 and these are a little too big, but it feels and looks great. I'm definitely hooked on these bad boys!

I love these. They are a bit big, but can work that out with the laces and heavier socks. I love the casual look without wearing typical athletic shoes.

Love these shoes. These are my fifth pair. I wear them to work and walk around in. They're very comfortable for my feet. I have narrow feel. They're unisex size so I normally wear a 7 in womens but I got a 6.5 equivalent because the 7 were too big. Overall, highly recommend.

This is my 2nd pair. I love the look and feel of these. No arch support, and also the treads tend to be fairly slick on some wet surfaces and also wear out within about a year. Still love 'em though!

I've been looking for a black pair of Onitsuka Tiger by Asics Mexico 66 with white stripes. Black ones usually come in any other color but white. When I found these I didn't think twice and bought them. When I received them I got a little bit disappointing because the leather looked kind of fake, plastic. However, after a couple of days of use, the leather started to look more like leather and they really look good besides that I like shoes with personality (wear and tear). Overall the shoes are great! Nice fit,true to size, comfortable and super light.

Really good looking, low profile shoe. I love the style of them. Definitely get a half size smaller than you normally would though. I have 2 pairs of the Onitsuka Tiger Serrano's and those fit true to size, but these are a good half size long. Not the most comfortable to walk long distances in, but good for casual wear. I recommend them.
