Great Martial Arts Shoe -
I wear these shoes for my Kung Fu classes. I have been searching for the longest time for the right shoe and have finally found them in the Onitsuka Tai-Chi shoe. They are thin and flexible which make them perfect. I like them so much I purchased another pair to wear to the gym.

Great looking shoe -
I love this shoe! It looks great and feels great. There is only one downside I can think of for this shoe: I work at a job that requires me to stand in one place for long periods of time, and after about five hours in these my heels really hurt. This could be a function of my personal gait as well, so a different person may have different results. Other than that I never really want to remove them, many times I forget I'm wearing them because they're so comfortable!

Very good shoe!!
I've been trying to run in a more natural way on the balls of my feet along the lines of the barefoot runners, but with some protection from the street. This shoe is perfect for that type of running, and it is also a great trip down memory lane to have the old Tiger logo and stripes!!

Great Shoe, perfect fit. Soft leather breaks in nicely. These are ideal for indoor martial arts training. I would not recommend these shoes for outdoor use, particularly in wet conditions.

Onitsuka -
Onitsukas are the best. These are very thin, but very comfy. These are my second favorite pair of Tigers.

These shoes are so awesome. I was looking to the perfect pair of shoes for the longest time and these are the ones I went with. They are so comfortable and light and I just love wearing them. I bought them in white and it's been raining where I live so I haven't been able to wear them much but on those occasional nice day I love wearing them!

Comfortable and stylish-
These shoes are perfect. They look great, they feel great, and they even smell great.
And don't be worried when you first get them. They really need to be worn in. They are somewhat uncomfortable at first, but once you've worn them a couple of times, they conform to your foot in ways unimaginable. BUY THESE SHOES!

Very comfortable -
This is a great shoe and it's very comfortable. It feels liek wearking slippers. No arch support at all though so if you have problems with that then probably not the shoe for you. I'm getting a second pair though in Black. Love them.

The most comfortable shoe I own -
First off I would like to say that Zappos is the best site for online shoes you will find. The Tai Chi by Asics Onitsuka are very comfortable and light weight. The shoe is also very stylish and no one I know except myself has them. My only complaint is that they have little arch support which I remedied by a Dr Scholls insole insert. I have had the shoes for only a few days and have recieved many compliments by friends and strangers.

LOVE these shoes-
These are great shoes. I ordered them in black and white and got them so fast! They are extremely comfortable; it’s like not wearing shoes at all. They do have a little support as well, which is nice for me since I have high arches. I think these are my new favorite shoes. They look great, feel great and I get tons of compliments on them!

I ordered a size larger than I usually wear, but my last pair of Asics were that size, and it turned out they were a little big. It was no problem though b/c Zappos sent another pair right away.

Cool -
These shoes are very cool and has a very retro style combined with a lightweight comfort. Both the black and the white combine with anything. The only problem they have is that they get very easily worn out.

Such great shoes for my stylish man!
I ordered these shoes for my man, who is both very stylish and likes to feel comfortable and free. These shoes are both very sleek and with their thin sole and supple leather they provide for an almost bare feet feeling. Highly recommended.

They look exactly like the picture, fit perfectly and cost less than other online stores. A great shoe for fans of flat shoes, like all stars or slip ons.

Great shoe for any martial arts -
I just got mine delivered to me yesterday and as soon as I got them, I tried them out in class. It's amazing how the shoes fit on to your feet, it had great traction and the arc support was incredible. I wasn't exactly doing tai chi in these shoes, I was actually doing Wushu, which is a form of Chinese martial arts especially designed for competition and demands a lot of jumping and flipping acrobatic techniques, if it is good enough to be worn for Wushu, it is good enough for any martial arts. I used to have a problem of ripping up cheap $15 wushu shoes in a month, but I think these are going to last me longer than that. Thanks Zappos!

Bojangin they are!!
Definitely the best shoe I've ever purchased. My only complaint is that your feet get wet easily in the rain or wet grass. Lightweight, flexible, conform to your feet, and durable- roomy once broken in, which doesn't take long. It's like wearing a durable sock. I've had them for a little over a year, wearing them almost everyday and they are only a little scuffed up on the exterior.

Awesome Shoes!!
I love the look and feel of these shoes. They're so lightweight and feels like you're wearing socks. The outsole is very thin and you can feel everything on the ground. These feel more comfortable than my Mexico 66's because they're lighter and has more cushioning but the material on these feel cheaper. The fabric that makes up the tongue of the shoe feels like plastic.
I use these for working out (stationary machines) and walking when the weather is nasty out so I don't have to get my Mexico 66's dirty.
Other than the cheap feeling material used on these, I think they're wonderful shoes. I would definitely buy another pair of these if I had the option.

THE review -
I am very pleased with how these shoes fit, look, and feel. It took very little time to break them in. In reality it was only a matter of 12 hours before the loosened up and felt more comfortable. These shoes let my feet breathe more than other shoes I have owned and if given the option, I would buy the same shoes, only with a different color scheme.

Like sock shoes -
I bought these shoes a couple weeks ago and they're incredible. Once you put them on it feels as though you dont even have shoes on, they are so light. Plus with the firm grip and the way they hug your feet, I wouldn't be surprised if I started rock climbing in them, because it is a definite possibility. Plus they look great and I get compliments on them all of the time.
