Customer Reviews Onitsuka Tiger deleted

See how black the navy ones looks on your screen and that's how black and not navy these shoes are in person. And super uncomfortable as they really dig into your heel.

I ordered these because I've been well satisfied with Asics running shoes, but wanted something black to wear with jeans, etc. I am very disappointed; the quality is substandard, the shoes are not comfortable, and they won't accommodate an orthotic. I'm sending them back.

Ultimate 81 used to be my favorite style sneaker, but the last 2 pairs I have bought are so uncomfortable, they are almost unwearable. I am a solid size 10 in these, always have been, first 3 pairs were amazing. Then I bought 2 new pairs about a year ago, and they fit so poorly my feet hurt for days after wearing them.

Shoes looked great and fit to size. Comfort is awful. The soles have no padding and the ankle is so hard it cut up the back of my leg in a few hours, much bleeding. Not what i expected from a pair of sneakers.

Got the grey ones with yellow trim. Look nice, fit nice, but didn’t last 6 months before they started to fall apart. Poor materials and construction. A hole opened on the left toe and fabric above the toe got scuffy.

NOT a running shoe. NO support and not really very comfortable, even for a "day walking" shoe.

Image is incorrect. Not the same mesh or color.

They look nice but the heels slip even though the rest of the shoe fits. Zero arch or ankle support. My feet cramp up each time I wear them but it’s too late to return :-/

These really hurt the back of my heal and giving me blisters. I end up getting ride of them.

I saw the 5 star rating and thought these shoes look cool. I bought them and after about 2 months the rubber on the front starting coming apart from the shoe. I love how light they are, but my feet started hurting after wearing them for a few mile walk. They need more padding and better arch support.

These are great looking shoes but they literally come with a warning that they are not to be used for any athletic activity. However, that warning should extend to any activity that is not standing perfectly still, such as walking. I walk a mere 1.4 miles round trip to and from work each day and that is more than these shoes can handle. I walk a lot more throughout the day and it is more than these shoes can handle. It is like strapping a piece of cheap, hard foam to the bottom of your foot. They have zero support and I have nearly rolled my ankle twice in these sneakers. The sizing is also a bit off. I wear an 11 in a couple brands of running shoes, 10¼ in some hiking boots. I ordered these in 11 and they were like clown shoes. I went down to 10 which is too small, so order down about half a size if you insist on ordering expensive cool looking foam for the bottom of your foot. These shoes suck. They are vegan, which was a plus for me, but not worth the overall worse-sneaker-ever experience. I am better off in some Chucks. Or strap some pieces of plywood to your feet. How I hate these shoes. I should have just burned the money that I spent on these.

Sole started ungluing from the toe almost immediately. Arch support was entirely too much in just one foot.

The sole and the material Are both rather thin and seem to be poor quality. Minimal arch support. Would probably require a supportive insert for comfort.

My podiatrist recommended Asics without an arch and to insert my orthodics. I tried them twice for less than 3 miles--ouch! After 4 weeks of rest I am just about recovered -- that did not work for me. Help, sore feet!

So small. I buy Onitsuka Tiger shoes almost exclusively. I wear a 10.5 US. I ordered a 10.5 and they are at least a full size too small. I bought the exact same shoe in a different color with no problems. How is this shoe manufactured a full size too small?! So frustrating. Makes me regret shopping online.

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.

I would reccommend not buying this shoe, the bottoms of the shoe start to come apart only 4 months in. I even returned them once and exchanged for another pair thinking it was a defect and four months later here we are again. I also work in an office so they aren't from wear and tear.

I am returning this item because I am sure it is not sized correctly. I have always worn sized 9 1/2 in all the shoes I have ordered from Zappos and they have always fit me just fine. However, these are too small! Why? Aren't these sized correctly? I am very disappointed with these shoes. Can't believe this sizing is correct. I have always been satisfied with all my Zappos orders but certainly not with this shoe.

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.

Does not fit correctly, back is too high and front is too low. Hits top of foot, cannot even put an orthotic into it!

These sneakers were horribly uncomfortable. I tried ordering a second pair and had the same experience. Moreover, a friend of mine also had the same experience twice as well with tigers ordered from Zappos. There's something wrong with the arch - it's too high in some bizarre way and it's just uncomfortable to walk in them. Also, the gray is much lighter in person than in the photos. I thought these would be a high contrast pair of kicks, but they looked washed out from the beginning.

I've had them for less than 2 months and the bottom sole is already peeling away from the top! I don't use them for exercise or running, so It really doesn't make sense. Yesterday, I just noticed a worn spot on the top where my toe is. I'm not particularly hard on shoes but these look like I've had them for a year or more. So, I can't vouch for the quality of these. Cute, comfy shoe, unfortunately not good quality from my experience.
