Customer Reviews Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81®

This shoe is great. I have wide foot so I had to get them a half size bigger. There is some extra room in the toe, but I feel going down a half a size might make them a little small width wise. Either way this shoe is comfortable and looks great! I purchased the Drizzle/grey coloring and the orange/red shoe laces where a bit much for me, but they still look great with the black laces! I would definitely recommend these shoes again!

These shoes are lightweight, breathable and comfortable as anything on the market. They can go anywhere and conquer any terrain. They are fashionable enough to wear with jeans or make an excellent gym shoe. I run on the treadmill myself and these are perfect. They may not work well on concrete or outdoor running. I suggest you buy a half size bigger than normal. What more can I say go out and buy yourself a pair of Tigers!

I thoroughly like these shoes. They were recommended to me as a nice driving shoe, but they're good for so much more. They do well with day to day driving as well as a spirited back road blast. They're also a very nice shoe to fence in. They're super light and not bulky like all of the cross trainers. I get tons of compliments on their looks. I would like something with more padding if I was going to do a lot of running. Still, they put the baller in ballerina.

The sneaker is comfortable and light. (I ordered a 1/2 size extra based on the reviews.) The sneakers are great. I prefer the style & brand which is not very common for the masses.

It's not normal for me to buy this type of shoe. But I sure am glad I did. Super lightweight, super comfy (even for such a large man as myself), and hey, they look really good too. I would definitely recommend this model. And probably buy more for myself.

Style is perfect. Support is perfect. Breathability is perfect. Went from a size 11 Nike to a size 11 Tiger and they fit perfectly. Certainly won't be my last pair. Sold me for life - easy.

This is about 4th pair of these shoes. I definitely love them and use them for pretty much everything except for running. Great walking shoes. Not much arch support, but it feels fine (I have neutral feet). They are also a half size larger than marked. I normally wear an 11, but in these I'm a 10.5.

This is about my 10th pair of Onitsuka Tigers, of varying styles. They're a really comfortable, casual-wear shoe that I would recommend. I get compliments almost every time I wear a pair. There are so many cool color/style combinations as well. I give the comfort only a 4 star because I think the arch support and soles could be improved a little, especially if you're walking around in these all day long.

My new favorite sneak to walk, work, workout, or hang out in. Perfect combination of style and comfort for me, and probably you too. Admittedly, I bought two more pairs after falling in love at first stride.

I own many colors in these shoes. I'm a big fan of their style, comfort and versatility. The only downside of this color is that it does not go well with jeans.

One of the most comfortable pair of shoes I've had in years. Feel extremely light, good grip, breathes well. Like having all the protection of a shoe without any of the weight and overhead. Size recommendation: I wear a 9.5, but found these most comfortable at 10. I tried a 9.5, and it fit perfect. However, the 1/2 size seemed to be cut a little different provided a better "overall" comfort, if that makes sense. If you wear a 10, this is probably perfect. If you wear a 9.5, you might consider the 10 first. Quality note: I'm a heavy wearer and go through a pair in about six months to a year. The thin sole begins to peal off at the toe after 6+ months or so. Some people may find that too quick. At the price, I don't think you can beat it. Besides, at that price, you can get a new color every 6-12 months at the same price as others.

This shoe is a classic. Sometimes you just gotta have some cool sneaks. I was reticent at first to commit to some vibrantly colored shoes, but every time I put them on I immediately was put in a better mood. These are therapeutic shoes. I ordered a size too large the first time, my normal size, but returned them and received these in the mail the day after I changed my order down half a size.

These are ninja shoes. The definition of "sneakers". I am a breakdancer and I needed a shoe that is light and has decent grip and is stable. These fit the bill perfectly. The only complaint I have is that the sole at the ball of the foot is a tad thin and it hurts when I bang the ball of my foot on the ground. Otherwise couldn't be better. Looks great too. Try lattice lacing these.

Great looking shoes, especially if worn with jeans. I'm not sure these are appropriate for exercise, though. Very flat-footed without much cushioning. Asics tends to run a half-size large, so keep that in mind when ordering. I had to return and reorder to account for the discrepancy in size. As always, Zappos makes that a breeze!

These shoes are super-comfortable, and - I think - stylish and hip. But that's all a taste and individual thing. What can't be debated is how awesome Zappos.com is, how easy to deal with and how quickly they ship, and how confident one can be in purchasing from this terrific company.

The shoes are very comfortable, the leather heel took a day or two to break in, but has been good ever since. Not too minimal, but not too supportive, nice for a lightweight sneaker. The nylon material is not as light and meshy as I would have hoped, so they still might get a little warm in the summer.

I don't know that I'd use these for running, but for walking around shoes, they're great. Decent, but not great arch support. They're very light and look great.

Very comfortable and light. Clean and classic look. Can't go wrong with them.

Purchased as a gift. He loves the style but says he can't wear them more than two days straight because they hurt his feet.

I've gotten many compliments. These shoes have wonderful arch support, and I would recommend any pair.

This is the third pair of Tiger shoes I have purchased in the last 2-3 years. I like the style and comfort of the shoe for a reasonable price. I constantly have friends commenting on how much they like the shoes and how "cool" they look. The tread on the shoes could be better, and the glue that applies the rubber bottom to the other suede parts at the front of the shoe came off on my last pair without much wear. This most recent pair I purchased is made better than the last.

Lightweight, stylish and extremely comfortable. My feet are wide in the toe area, and many shoes pinch my pinky toes. Not these.

I've ordered these shoes in a different color so I knew what I was getting into. These shoes if you've never tried them are really comfortable (they're my day to day walking shoes) and you would be surprised to know that if you need to run in these bad boys you really won't be feeling the road. They go great with jeans and a t-shirt and are always great conversation starters.

Great shoe! Very lightweight, very stylish, very comfortable. They are also very white...at least the white mesh part is a bright white. All around, it's a cool shoe.

Love these shoes. Second pair. Only wish they still had the color combination from my first pair.
