The shoes arrived as beautiful as they looked online. Zappos even delivered two-day shipping on the house. I love these shoes and I love Zappos!

I'm a fan of these kicks! My foot size recently changed, probably from losing weight rapidly at the gym. I bought these sneakers in my new size (I was an 8 1/2 and I'm now an 8). They feel a little snug in thicker socks, which makes me think they run a tiny bit small. However, as long as I wear thinner gym socks, they are very comfortable! I love the color combination offered, and I've gotten several compliments from trainers at the gym.

I would love to actually wear these shoes (all black ultimate 81) or the many exclusive like them... But Zappos rarely has size 11.5 man's Tigers for more then one tenth of a picosecond... Really irritating! But when they do, Zappos service is the cream and I will continue to shop w/ them. Really cool shoes Just buy them you will love them. Just wished they had them in stock longer.

Was fearing for the worse but took a chance on these trainers and I have to say they are awesome! Very light weight and though I have somewhat wide feet, I stuck to my size 9 and the shoes fit great! I would recommend these to anyone looking for a stylish affordable light weight shoe.

This is a very stylish shoe and very comfortable. It's great for casual wear. I can't really comment on its value as a running shoe, because I don't run in them, but they are my go-to shoes when I know I'm going to be doing a lot of walking, or just when I am going out and I want to wear a different set of awesome shoes.

These are great shoes! I ordered mine in black/black so that I can wear them out with a nice pair of jeans and a dress shirt. I find that a lot of sneakers are usually bulkier than they have to be and and a little on the heavy side, so I was looking for something streamlined and very light-weight. These are those shoes. They are extremely comfortable. I have high arches, and the support, while not the best among sneakers I've tried, is very good. I would buy them again and would highly recommend them to family and friends.

Great looking shoe. Love the style. Only thing I noticed is certain colorways that use different materials will impact the size. I would pay attention to what is used in the heel area or the toe box (mesh, synthetic leather, etc). The ones with mesh in the inner heel part and mesh in the toe box will fit true to size. On the other hand, the ones with synthetic material in the heel I had to go up half a size. Other than that, awesome casual shoe to wear with jeans or khakis.

These shoes are really nice looking. The only issue I had was the first day I wore them. Since the back is so high, I got huge blisters on the back of my ankles. They definitely need to be worked in at first. Since then I haven't had a problem. I love them!

The shoe fit perfectly! I even have a slightly wider foot and these are so comfy. I get so many compliments on these shoes. They are sleek, comfortable, lightweight, and practical.

Very comfortable shoe! I use it for exercise. Very lightweight. Love! In fact, a friend of mine bought the exact same pair, because he loved them too! I would recommend this shoe to anyone. It feels great. I think I could run an extra mile!

Slick looking, comfy shoe. May need to put some better insoles in but I think that's more my feet than the shoes.

These look nice and are super comfortable. My first pair was defective, which Zappos fixed immediately. This is my 6th pair of Onitsukas, and my general review would be that they always look nice, fit comfortably, but I wouldn't try to work out in them - they are definitely for casual wear.

These shoes are great. Super comfortable when walking or standing, and best of all, very light and cool. Breathable shoes are important for the upcoming summer!

Great shoes, very comfortable. Good arch support, my only complaint is that the arch support feels a tiny bit too far forward for my foot.

This is an excellent pair of shoes. I have worn my shoes outdoors every day, now for about eight months, without any noticeable wear other than tread. The shoes are in fantastic condition, no threads coming lose, no tears, and I use this pair for free-running and parkour, with excellent light-weight traction. I will definitely be buying another pair of these next year.

Got these shoes as a gift for my husband. He liked them. They looked very trendy on him. I am going to buy one more pair for my nephew. As usual, no one can beat Zappos in their excellent customer service and on-time delivery.

These shoes are amazing! I bought these as a gift for my husband, third pair in as many years, and we both love them. I have my own pair and love them, too. These shoes break in nicely, feel great whether brand new or years old, and come in such great colors. Would definitely recommend!

Awesome shoes! I personally like that they are so quiet when walking, I'm like a ninja! Super comfortable and size is true. Great looking style with outfit. Couldn't be happier and I do plan on buying another pair when these wear out.

Loved these shoes! They are awesome and a cool color to boot. Not good for running, the sole doesn't offer the best support, but great as everyday street shoes.

I bought these for my 11 year old son. He says they are the best shoes ever. They are really comfortable and great running shoes. He wants another pair .

I love these shoes. They are the most comfortable things I have ever put on my feet. I've been buying Tigers for years and have never once regretted it. They're great for the gym and work...and I'm on my feet all day on concrete and they feel lovely. Highly recommended! True to size, lasts a reasonable amount of time. If you have wide feet they will stretch a bit.
