Customer Reviews Onitsuka Tiger California 78® Vintage

Nice sneakers...nice support. It runs big...I went down a 1/2 size and that worked out well.

My daughter has narrow feet and needed indoor court shoes for fencing but couldn't fit the adult sizes. These shoes work great and provide enough stability while she is running on the mat floor.

I ordered a mens 7.5. I wear a women's 9.5. These were snug and slightly narrow but they stretched a bit and are now perfectly comfortable. I'd rather them be more snug than big. I ordered an 8 as well but it was a little big. Easy return. Fast shipping. I got my package in about three days which is fast for where I live.

Shoes are good. The size seems to run a little longer than others. May not be the best shoe for wide footers, but overall very pleased. Great grips on the bottom for bicycling.

Great shoe, comfortable, love colors, so I can say the green yellow combo is awesome. It fits right for me, and very light even though it doesn't look like it.

Surprisingly comfortable for a flat sole tennis shoes. Striking looks that gets better in person. I have been wearing them as casual summer shoes without socks without any problem so far. I would not recommend them for jogging/running.

I love these sneakers. They totally reminds me of the sneakers I wore as a kid in the late 1970's, which, I suspect, is why they are called the California 78 Vintage. I wear them in stylish New York City and get lots of compliments. They are extremely comfortable for walking the mean streets. I like that they have a relatively low-profile sole yet a high-profile soul.

The Onitsuka Tiger by Ascics is a remarkable shoe with exceptional comfort, feel,and style. I feel light on my feet whenever wearing these and even use them in indoor soccer. They are an all around shoe that can adapt to almost any situation.I highly recommend to anyone who likes a good fitting and comfortable lifestyle shoe.

Comfortable, good looking casual shoe suitable for walking. Felt wider than I'd have expected, but I have wide feet and the extra width suited me. Very satisfied.

Having been born and raised in California, these shoes brought back good memories the second I saw them. Had to have them. I have been wearing them now for over a month and love them.

Love these! They are great with jeans without looking sloppy. I bought the blue and love the color. Waiting for the other colors be available in my size. I was wary of buying since they are in men's sizes too, as I don't always have luck with that sort of thing. I am a 9 and bought the 7.5/9 and it fits perfectly.

I am surprised at how much I love these shoes! I am extremely picky about the comfort of shoes. Usually, if a shoe is cute, the comfort is sacrificed and vice versa. These have both style and comfort! I love the retro look of them and they remind me of my Jr. High days! ;) They are really comfy and I can wear them all day with no problems. They do run a little big - I am a true size 8 and I ordered both the 8 and 7 1/2. The 8s are too big and even the 7 1/2s are slightly on the big side. I could probably go down to a 7. They are also a tad on the narrow side, which my feet are so bonus for me! All in all, these are great shoes and I'm very pleased!

Great look and super comfortable. The 'black' is more of a charcoal grey and have a cool retro feel to it.

Love these so much! I struggled to find the perfect black "throwback" sneak and these definitely fit the bill. 24 hours after they arrived I literally "street-tested" them out in NYC for a long weekend. I didn't get any blisters and they went well with all my casual outfits. I do wish they had a bit more support, but the style factor makes up for it!

This is a retro shoe, just like the ones I had in the late 70's. It is light and comfortable. It does not restrain the foot. This is not a big arch-support type shoe. More like a slipper you can run in.

Exceptionally comfortable. Larger shoe than I expected.

Love this shoe and wear it every day. Just beware that the insole is not removable and both shoes developed holes in the fore foot after 6 months. Took insoles from another shoe, plopped them in, good to go.

Great shoe. I don't have high arches, so these fit me perfectly. The only complaint I have is that they aren't very breathable, so I wear them sparingly in the summer.

I bought these shoes because I loved the colors. They are very bright blue and red! I was pleasantly surprised to discover how comfortable they are. They have pretty good support, and could definitely be worn all day long. This was a great purchase!

My 13-year-old son bought these shoes to replace an old pair of Tigers he loves. Alas, his old model is no longer available so these were a second choice. But he still loves the style and the shoe overall. The sole of the shoe is just not what he was hoping for...more of a basketball bottom than what this shoe offers. This reminds me of an old adidas running shoe.

Have only worn them around the house for an hour so far... comfortable, lots of padding at upper, sole has moderate padding - less than moderate arch support, but there is some. Will need better arch support or arch insert for pronators. I think these will conform well to the foot, since the uppers are textile. The gray is a true light gray, not whitefish, so you don't feel you are wearing white shoes. I seem to be between an 8 and an 8.5 for women in this shoe, but I will re-order an 8 -- I expect it to stretch out. Good for walking around town, but I would not use them for running -- the running shoe engineering has gone a long way since the 70s when these were the marketed for runners. But I wanted them for a casual shoe & for that, they are very handsome shoes! Similar styles would be Skechers & other "athletic-leisure" shoes, but these are much more comfortable in the upper for me.

I was very excited to receive them, but my happiness lasted only one day. I've owned another pair of Onitsuka Tiger by Asics - the Ultimate 81 for a year now and have been happy with them. I find them supper comfy but I wanted something more sturdy with a better support and a thicker sole to wear during my trip to Spain - so I ordered these based on the good reviews on here. Unfortunately, after the first day of wearing them they stretched out so much that now they feel too wide and they do not provide any stability for my feet whatsoever. I'll keep them because they look great and will only wear occasionally.

Squeaky shoes. Every step. Talked to my sister who used to design shoes for a living and she told me it's a production thing, poor quality thing. Last Onitsuka shoes I bought were great. These not. Lame.
