AMAZING -
I am wearing my shoes right now. They are so amazingly great. The arch just flows with my foot. The Mexico 66 doesn't have the arch that I needed, but when I put on the Ultimate's... WOW... Let's just leave it at that. They are amazing hacking shoes too. I don't have to get accustomed to a new shoe.

Solid Shoes -
After a week of wearing, they break in very well. The ecru brown combo has a mesh/leather outsole that is very comfortable. Buy a half size smaller than normal.

Great looking and great comfort -
These are a lot wider than most of the other Onitsuka styles, which is good if you have a normal American foot size. They also have decent padding on the sole and arch support - again, something that is missing in many of the Tigers. Overall, a very sharp shoe. I pulled them out of the box and my friends all said, "Whoa!"

Looked all over the mall but never found this shoe in this color except at zappos. Very comfortable and neutral color looks good with everything.

Very trendy -
I wear a size 12.5 so I look for shoes that are trendy but do not look like I am walking on boats. Zappos got these to my door in no time and these are some of the best all around athletic shoes I own. Also, in tan they are great with shorts because they do not look like standard white athletic shoes. I will bring these to college with me for sure.

Perfectly Vintage, Unique -
My mom doesn't encourage me to buy shoes from the Web, because since I should be growing, I can't rely on any size shoe to fit. For this product, which I just had to have, I went to a mall that carried the same style of Onitsuka Asics (however in a different color variation).
I am pleased with my purchase- wish all purchases from on line stores could be this well managed.

This shoe is very comfortable and looks great. It breathes well and also has good arch support. I got the Ecru/Brown style and it goes with nearly anything and looks trendy.

These shoes are awesome -
When I first got them (in 2 days no less, Zappos is AMAZING!) I thought they looked a little skinny for my EE width foot. I know I need to wear wider shoes, but no wide shoes look cool. Anyways, I tried them on just to see and sure enough they fit great! I ended up walking all over New Orleans at the World Series of Poker in them for the next week and my feet never felt better. Awesome shoes, awesome website, I'll be back again and again and I'm bringing friends!

All purpose stealth shoes!!!
I ordered the sand/black pair about a year ago and I love them. They were a little long for my size 13's so I put in heel cushions. The sand color is nice because it does not show dirt as easily and even mud blends in with the suede. Fairly easy to clean off ...I even spilled shellac on these things and they survived. An added bonus is that they are very quiet and nimble footwear, excellent for tiptoeing around.

These shoes are awesome -
The first weekend I got these shoes I got to go to Chicago. I walked all over the streets of downtown and these shoes that not only look great but feel great also. If I were you I would get a pair...now...

Good shoe -
This is a pretty decent shoe. It looks great. I wouldn't recommend it for jogging, etc. because it doesn't feel very sturdy or supportive but it's great for everyday wear.

More comfortable than I thought!
Of course when buying anything on-line, you buy base solely on looks and you just really take a chance on the comfort level. Even when I received the shoe (sand/black), I thought to myself "gosh, the shoe must hurt after walking in it all day." But its actually quite comfortable! I mean its not like my Asic Nimbus which feels like walking on air but its quite comfortable and walking around all day did not leave my feet in pain at all. Looks great and feels great.

A great experience, a great shoe!
After being disappointed with the selection and service of most stores in my area mall, I looked online for Onitsuka shoes. First I ordered an 11, felt a little too large, so I ordered a 10.5 the next day, to compare them side by side. The 10.5 was perfect, so I kept it and returned the 11 with no problems whatsoever. I received both orders in only two days. I rarely buy shoes, but when I do, it will be from zappos, and I'm telling all my friends!

These shoes are the deal -
These shows are soo comfie. When I'm dancing or when I'm standing up long ours at work. A lot of people ask where I got them from, cause nobody has them around here. These shoes are a must for the summer time.

Love 'em! They are incredibly light, but pretty sturdy. They look great too; I've gotten many compliments! The service at Zappos was excellent as well; I got my shoes a lot faster than I expected and shipping was free.

Great all-around Shoe -
I'm new to retro shoes, but I wanted to mix up my style a bit. I usually wear dark brown mocs to go with whatever. Mocs are great, comfortable footwear but don't necessarily ooze trendy. These shoes fit the bill and then some. I got them in sand/black, and this color combination is awesome. It is slightly darker than in the photogaph, but in my opinion it looks better slightly darker. They are very comfortable and do not need any breaking in as everyone else has said. I'm normally a size 9 (10"x4.5" foot dimensions).
I ordered a half-size smaller and the length is perfect. However, the width might be a problem during extended walks with this shoe; even when the laces aren't fully tightened, my toes have very little lateral stretching room.
I am having so much fun with this shoe. The pair is so slick. I'm even taking the time to lace the shoe in double-alternate and I'm not sure if I want to wear them for fear of damaging them.
I never write reviews for products, but I just liked these shoes that much.
