I'm so disappointed, and should have listened to the reviews. I have a pair of Tiger's from years ago, and these are not the same shoe. I have narrow feet, but the tread on these is so narrow under the arch that it doesn't extend across the width of my foot. Also, there is no arch support (my old pair had decent arch support), and these feel cheap in comparison. I like the look, but that's about all.

flimsy but nice looking (the sneakers not me):
I bought these for the look, and since they are not expensive I didn't expect that much cushion or support, which is right. I had to get an insole, but after wearing these for 2 months the soles are quickly wearing down, and have very little support. Not lasting street ware.

I had several pairs of these shoes years ago. I was looking forward to having another pair when I finally saw a pair a color scheme I liked. I ordered the first pair the same size I used to wear. They were to big the second pair was to small. So I tried a third pair they were not comfortable. The past pairs I have had were good out of the box. I don’t know what has changed but I will not be trying these again.

I bought these a little over a week ago. I noticed a white mark near the toe when I unboxed them, but thought nothing of it. I wore them for a few days and walked home in a drizzle. A white stripe formed across both toes and white marks on the heel. I followed the instructions on the card on how to care for these shoes. They now look faded. I feel as if I have been ripped off. 80 dollars down the drain.

Most uncomfortable shoes - I can't believe they are rated so highly. They are flat and have as much support as the original chuck taylors. Tread will wear in months and the thin pad that I guess is supposed to be cushioning becomes compressed and even more uncomfortable each day. I generally walk at least 1.4 miles a day, usually more, and these are killing me feet. Don't buy them unless you are planning on wearing them on the weekend to wear out for the night or something. Otherwise, just awful. I will be burning them once I've replaced them, total waste of money.

This is third pair of Onisuka Tigers and like my others these are a size 7. This size 7 is not true to size and is more likely at 6½. It was not until I had walked around in them for a few hours did I realize I had just thrown away so much money because they were too snug. The labeling got me, I would have been more cautious to make sure the size was correct had I not already owned the shoes twice before in the exact same specs. These simply are not cut the same. On top of that the synthetic materials do not stretch and smell of plastic chemicals. Zappos was unwilling to hear me out or help me, and being this is a Zappos exclusive I cannot exchange them with the manufacturer. It is in my order history that I have ordered these shoes twice before in a 7.

Sad day. I have worn these shoes for the last 7-8 years. They were the only shoes I would wear. On my 14th pair with this purchase. Something has changed in the manufacturing process because these shoes now tear up the back of my heels. Within 10 minutes, they were rubbed raw. Sent them back hoping it was just a fluke with that specific pair. The replacement pair was even worse. Don't know what to do now. I haven't really shopped for shoes in a very long time. Where do I go from here? Very sad.

In a closed shoe, I wear a 6.5; ordered this size and it was perfect. The arch support was great.

These are the best shoes that ever existed. Perfect amount of room in the toe box. Walk forever in these they’re so comfortable and light. Love them! I keep buying a new pair to replace old pairs.

Love the look and fit. I actually ordered a half size larger, but they don’t feel too big. Can’t beat the classic Tiger style - wish they had more in stock

The Onitsuka Tiger shoes fit me to a "T" and I usually have issues with finding a shoe or sneakers that fit very comfortably. These shoes are comfy and I really like the look. I'm glad I made the leap and purchased.

Fantastic shoes. Favorite of mine. The style looks good and clean. The shoes are light but the treads last quite a bit. Excellent running, walking, or casual shoe. It's just too bad they're getting harder to find.
