Customer Reviews Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81®

Love at first try! For YEARS Ive been wearing/buying a particular slip on tennis shoe that was discontinued and I cant even find them on Ebay anymore. Needless to say I get stuck in my ways and although these looked the part with the sleek, minimalist, mostly all black look to them, i was apprehensive that I would be satisfied. These shoes are everything I wanted and although i prefer shoes without laces when possible the laces didnt bother me. They were comfortable right out of the box and Im so glad I gave these a try

This is my third pair of Onitsuka Tigers and I’m a huge fan. Very comfortable casual shoe!

These are my favorite shoes, and I've been wearing them for about ten years now. If you need a lot of arch support, I wouldn't recommend them. The shoes are pretty flat and very flexible, but I think they're incredibly comfortable for my feet and so stylish! I have them in six different colors and have bought several replacement pairs. Love the Ultimate 81 line!

Great style and fits true to size. Low key but cool style.

These are great old school sneakers. They feel completely different than modern sneakers. By that, I mean they feel like track shoes from the 1980s or earlier, which are narrow (especially in tread of the heel) and have very little underfoot cushioning or thickness. I find them to be super comfortable, but you have to know these feel more like beach sandals than running shoes of today. They have just enough cushioning to feel good on a long walk and are really light. They have a bit of Arch support, but only a bit. They look great. I'd happily but then again. These are precisely what I wanted. You'll like them too if you like this kind of shoe. If you want Nike Air Pegasus xT 2500s, these aren't for you.

Super awesome feeling and cool looking.

After trying upteen pairs of shoes for my upcoming trip to Israel, these onitsuka tigers landed as gracefully as a —well, tiger. I have a skinny foot and wanted to be able to wear thin socks, and my usual size fits with that in mind. These have a higher than usual ankle, higher than usual throat, and almost hides your low rise socks. The sole is wonderfully grippy. The insole is not at all cushy. If you need to have looser or tighter heels, you simply choose how high to lace your shoe. A keeper.

I love love love these shoes! They are super stylish and confortable.

Very comfortable, true to size. Did not even need to break them in.

Super comfortable and a great look for a casual shoe. I purchased these shortly after bunion surgery and they felt great. I am a size 12-13 women's, so went with the 13 and am pleased. I would recommend these for a cute look around town while running errands---light, comfy, stylish.

Comfy and cute, these fit as expected and are the perfect black basic. A wardrobe staple for sure!

awesome shoes

The Onitsuka Ultimate 81 is a classic sneaker and it never disappoints. The shoe is very lightweight and stylish. I love the way it looks on my feet. Will definitely buy again.

A perfect fit right out of the box. Stylish enough to pair with a casual work outfit (I’m a hairdresser) and seriously reduced leg and foot fatigue standing 9-10hrs a day on cement floors! Couldn’t be happier.

These shoes are very comfortable. The arch support is higher than I'm used to. I would prefer that the tan rubber at the front of the shoes was all black.

Great! I’d say they’re true to size! Bearing in mind that they’re an athletic shoe, which usually fit a little tighter than a casual shoe like converse or slip on styles like vans! I ordered a 7 and they’re just fine!

I’ve been buying these shoes for years. I like that they have a low profile but still provide some arch support.

Two day delivery. Great shoes!

I love these shoes. A little higher around the ankle and super comfortable. They are a big wide (I have narrow feet) and sag a bit on top sides but not bad.

These shoes are extremely comfortable & look great. Highly recommend.

I actually love these shoes, they feel true to size but I tend to not wear socks at all with shoes, or if I do they’re very thin because of the climate I live in. Because of that, the shoes feel a bit looser than I prefer but it can also be attributed to the fact I have pretty narrow feet. If they came in a narrow they would be absolutely perfect. They’re stylish, and can be worn with workout clothes or casual clothes without looking sloppy. They’re also actually quite comfortable and come in so many different colors that I want them all now, haha. The retail price point is making it easier to not buy them all because $75 is a little too high for me to have them in multiple colors. $30 cheaper or so and I would definitely buy multiple colors. Love these sneakers!

This is my husbands 3rd pair...enough said!

These shoes live up to their rep! breathable, light, and nimble... I feel like a race car driver wearing these things around. Def recommend.

I’ve been buying Tigers for years and I love them. They are cute, stylish, comfortable, and durable. On my last pair the rubber on the front separated from the canvas pretty fast so I was going to write off Tigers, but I decided to give them one more try. Let’s hope these don’t do that or I will sadly make this my last pair of Tigers. So far so good though.

You cant go wrong with Onitsukas
