Customer Reviews Onitsuka Tiger Rotation 77™

This is the shoe of choice by our staff who are in the service industry. They are super comfortable and durable. Ordering through Zappos was super quick and easy and the shoes were here in record time!

Great sneaks. They are hip and comfortable. They do rub on the heel, near the ankle, but that is probably my foot. I were a 9 womens, not narrow, but not overly wide either. I am wearing socks with them right now to break them in and then I will start to wear them bare-foot.

Everybody's foot is different. These fit mine like a glove. Forefoot is on the wide side and the heel area is narrower -- just like my foot. Comfy. Keep in mind that for this price you're not getting a high-end athletic shoe with maximum shock absorption and support. These are for hanging out, casual wear. That said, they do offer much more structure and support than Sambas or Puma California's, or any other resurrected retro sneaker in this price range (and I've had a lot of them!). They break in very nicely and just hug the foot -- the narrow sole under the arch helps create that feeling. Very comfortable for walking around town all day. Quality of construction is excellent. If you are looking for a trail shoe or plan to use these for doing sports, spend more and look elsewhere. These are just nice, stylish, inexpensive, and comfortable hanging-out sneakers.

Good quality, very comfy. Does run a little big...so maybe go a half size smaller. Also, shoe is wide.

Great looking shoes, and for the most part comfortable. But I too have been experiencing some serious heel-rubbing; it's not too bad with higher socks, but still noticeable. All in all, I'd buy them again!

Very comfortable shoe. I am a size 10.5, but had to exchange for a 10 due to a half size bigger.It seems that all my Asics shoes followed this trend, as compared to other brands. Highly recommend it nonetheless.

It took a little while to break in, but it is pretty comfortable now. I have a pretty wide foot that usually fits into the standard sizes of most shoes, but I would probably have preferred a wide version of this shoe if it existed. Great style though (the white and grey is the best).

Got these today (birch/black) and I wasn't disappointed! Style, the not-so-pure shade of the birch goes with everything, and the slim styling looks good even with shorts or a dress. My first impression was that they were a half size too big, but I'm sure that will go away once I really start wearing them. Also, these elongate the look of your feet a bit (just something to consider when buying). This being my second pair of Onitsukas, I was expecting there to be some chafing on my Achilles. If that happens to you, it should go away after breaking them in. There's also a cushion bed for comfort. I would say the arch support is between that of Vans and regular running shoes. I would definitely recommend this brand, and this site!

Very cool and sleek kicks. These shoes can be worn casually with jeans, shorts, and khakis. Essential for a man\'s wardrobe.

These Shoes Make Me Want To Boogie!!! I ordered the Kombu green/off white in a 7 and they are beautiful! I've read other reviews stating that they run a 1/2 size larger but these fit true to size. Swanky looking and definitely comfy! Now if I could only find a dance floor...

Love these shoes - These shoes fit great -- very comfortable. Might run slightly tight if you have wide feet though. Love the colors and the fun, retro style. I get numerous comments whenever I wear them.

Great shoes! Great styling and good fit. They definitely were half size bigger than marked.

It's a nice look. Like the color. Not sure about the asymmetrical pattern on the toe, but it's interesting. Reasonably comfortable, though takes a bit to break in. Overall, a good choice for those red sneakers.

Nice shoe, but the back is very hard, so I got blisters the first day I wore them. I am hoping to wear them in better over time. A little painful. Otherwise nice and waterproof-ish.

Very stylish and comfortable on feet, but no arch support and not very cushioned.

This is my second pair of Onitsuka Tigers and I have to say that this pair is way more comfortable than the Mexico 66s I had the last time. The Mexico 66 sole is very thin, which barefoot enthusiasts may appreciate, but I can stand all day in my vibram FF and feel much more comfortable than in the Mexico 66s. The Rotation 77s however are far more comfortable. Like the styling and they feel great. Definitely recommend.

These are some all around stylin kicks. Like many buyers, I experienced some heel (Achilles) digging during the first week or two of wearing. But after some break-in time and some manual stretching, I was feeling good again. I've gotten nice comments from friends and strangers alike. Everybody seems to like the Rotation 77's. They go good with jeans. They go good with shorts...

These shoes look awesome. That's the main reason to buy them. They\re more greyish-tan than beige. They're reasonably comfortable--I didn't get any blisters or anything--but because of the "old school" style they're not as comfortable as a good pair of modern sneakers or running shoes. There's essentially no arch support but that's OK with me since I don't have foot problems. However, if you need arch support then these are not the shoes for you. You can't even take out the insoles to replace them with more supportive ones because--get this--they're glued in. And if you try to put another insole on top of them, the fit is too tight. (I tried it just to see if it would work. But if you want a great looking, reasonably comfortable, everyday around town shoe for a reasonable price, this is a great choice.

i've been a fan of asics tiger since I was in junior high school. i used to wear their shoes in wrestling and track & field. the rotation 77 is a very comfortable shoe, great for casual lounging. and the design accents are somewhat quirky--which makes them a bit more interesting than your average trainer.mnot a lot of support if you're looking for something that can hold up your arches.

I bought these shoes because they look really nice. The white/gray color scheme is my kind of thing and the Onitsuka trademark stripes were just gravy (especially since they were featured in the Kill Bill movies). However, the first few days of wearing the shoes were pretty painful and a little bloody. The backing of the shoes cut into the back of my feet every time I took a step. It eventually bled and I had to put on some bandages to wear them more comfortably. Now that my wounds have healed and the back of my feet are more callous, I wear them quite comfortably without a problem. So for a fair warning, the first few days of breaking them in will be uncomfortable. Plus, the gray rubber in the front is easily scratched and easily becomes discolored (gets lighter).
