Customer Reviews Onitsuka Tiger Colorado Eighty-Five

First of all, Zappos was the best online shopping experience I've ever had. It is cheaper than the store, 2 day delivery, and got exactly what I wanted! And as far as the shoes go, I wore them for the first time on a full day at Disney World (walking a lot!), and they were perfectly comfortable. I highly recommend them!

I love the look and design of these Colorado Tigers. They are comfortable for my flat feet and more cushioned that other model tigers. I have the blue/red and gray/birch. I missed out on the black ones.

Zappos in general is great to purchase from, very quick and great return\/exchange policy. Shoes are amazing, my first pair of Tigers and won\'t be my last. Feels great especially for walking around the city for miles and miles each day. Looks great, get a lot of comments about them.

I ordered these shoes for my boyfriend in the stone\/dark brown color, and he really likes them. The colors are nice and neutral. We ordered them in a half-size larger than his usual size since he likes to have plenty of toe room in sneakers, but the shoes are a little too big, so his usual size would have fit best, but they weren\'t so big that he wanted to go to the trouble of exchanging them.

For looking good more than function -- feels more light, flimsy and unsupported than a daily use sneaker should be. But other than that it seems fine.

These are comfy shoes. Wore them to work every day since August of ‘09. Materials are soft and flexible. Break-in time was minimal. Great for walking and running... But I feel that these shoes are more about retro style than anything. I bought them pretty much based on style. My only complaint was that after 5 months of use were the holes made by my big toe popping through the top of the sneaker. My job involves walking 10-12 miles a day so I guess I got my money’s worth. I only buy shoes from Zappos! Nuff said.

The shoes arrived on time and look great; however, they are not made as well as other Asics shoes I have owned. With that being said, they are also less comfortable. I still use them as my primary casual shoes but I am a bit disappointed with the quality and comfort.

I love the look of this shoe! It goes great with jeans or any casual pants. I have been wearing Asics for running for almost 15 years. Unfortunately, for reasons I will never understand, the same company that makes one of the best-fitting, most popular running shoe ever (the 2000) refuses to apply the same design standards to their casual line. The shoe has minimal arch support and a narrow sole. I love the look of it, but Asics really should be able to produce better fitting, more comfortable casual shoes. They obviously know how to design shoes that are comfortable for most people. It's too bad and I'll probably end up returning these.

More substantial than Serranos, and a bit less comfortable. They do inspire a bit more confidence in terms of support and active wear than Serranos. Cool looking, go well with shorts or jeans.

Usually a 9.5/10 depending on brand. Last pair of Asics I had were 9.5, but decided on a 10 in these - my first Tigers - and wound up with the max amount of room in toe box I would prefer, but since I wear these as slip-on/loafers, I'd say the fit is perfect.

The Colorado has a very comfortable upper, and insole. Very similar in comfort to the Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81. Heel feels slightly higher than the toe. which to me makes the shoe feel like it is lacking just a touch in arch support. Sole is stronger and thicker than the Ultimate 81, making it a better choice for rough terrain or hiking. All around good low top hiking shoe.

My husband and I each bought a pair of these, but sadly, we both had to return them. He needed far more support, which is always a concern with his high arches. I usually wear Converse All Stars, so I'm most comfortable without support. Somehow, just walking around the house, these were uncomfortable. Both of us have worn (and loved!) Pumas and Adidas in similar styles, but these shoes don't cut it. They look awesome, but didn't work for us. I also almost slipped on our clean, tile kitchen floor.
