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.

These are my new nursing shoes. The only shoes I can wear for 12 hours straight and don't hurt my feet. Plus they are super aerated so your feet don't sweat either. And they look cool!

These are my favorite shoes ever! However, I usually buy the mens and had to go up a half size in womens because they were a bit narrow & tight.

I needed some comfy tennis shoes to walk around all day in for a week solid on vacation. These totally fit the bill! Great support, really cute color (pink), and fit true to size! I wear an 8.5 and that is what I ordered. :) Love them! Thanks Zappos!

Perfect shoe - I purchased green/orchid and the colors are great and I especially like that they are vegan! They are true to size just like all Asics shoes I have owned.

When I first tried these on, I was apprehensive that the arch area would be too narrow or tight (I have relatively flat feet) but after wearing this a few times, the shoes loosened up and they were fine. I wear these sneakers on weekends when I'm walking around the city and they're perfect for that. The shoes are extremely comfortable. They have enough of a lift so I'm not stepping on my jeans (unlike Pumas). If I had more closet space I would look to buy a few more of these shoes in different colors.
