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!

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.

I loved the color and texture of the fabric, it seems like corduroy. As always, onitsuka sneakers are very comfortable and long lasting.

My husband owns 10 pairs so I figured I'd give them a shot. First time wearing them they felt comfortable but a little off. Now that I've worn them a couple times they've formed to my feet and are really comfortable.

Purchased these for a trip to Disney. They felt true to size and i was able to change mfortably wear them for 7+ miles of walking, three days in a row. Cute, supportive alternative to my clunkier exercise shoes!

I've had a single pair of the Ultimate 81 Vegan shoes for well over a year now... I wear these shoes every day. I am amazed that they still look awesome. Bottom line, these are amazing. I've ordered another pair, not that I need a new pair, but I do want a backup. I don't have anything negative to say about these. Just order a 0.5 to 1 size larger than your normal shoe size.

Perfect for work! I’m on my feet 8+ hours and these shoes are great. I like how plain these are, no flashy designs. They are always out of stock so when they said they were back I knew I had to jump on them. My previous pair would have went beyond the 2 years I had them but I didn’t want to risk them never coming back in stock

I love this shoes. I've bought about 6 pairs of them. I won't comment on quality and what not, I just love how they look, how light they feel, and completely comfortable for me.

Always been a fan of ASICS, and these didn't disappoint. They took maybe two or three days of casual wear to break in and are very comfortable once they have. They're very light and give a similar feeling to walking or running barefoot, which is what I was looking for in this type of shoe.

I have worn Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81 for past two years when playing table tennis three times a week. They have held up well. Surface of sole prevents slipping, but not so grippy as to cause you to break an ankle. The Oatmeal/Moonrock color is made with corduroy material, unlike the black which has mesh. Mesh will probably allow better air flow, although corduroy is working OK. I covered rubber areas of shoe (near and on sole) with protective tape and then sprayed uppers with Scotchguard to resist soil and stains. No problems. Staff at Zappos were fantastic! Shipping was scheduled for a date I was going to be out of town, so Zappos shipped shoes overnight at no charge!

I've been wearing Onitsuka shoes for decades. Seriously, decades. Still my favorite athletic shoes. Comfortable from the minute I put them on. Doesn't hurt that they are stylish as well. Can't begin to tell you how many compliments I get on these shoes. My only problem is I never feel I have all the colors I need!

My husband has little style and these were perfect to take him a step outside of his style comfort zone.

I really like these, was worried the color would be too "loud" but I love the color. For me the fit is true to size.

These shoes are exactly what I was looking for. I indicated they are true to size, but they are generous at that. I ordered my typical 9.5 (women's) and they fit very well, if not a tad bit big, but definitely not too big. I would order true to size. The insole is not as cushy as I had hoped, but I am on my feet all day and nonetheless had no problem. The color is what I wanted, a very soft yellowish/off white with gray. Cool shoes! I'd order in another color, too.
