I had blue nylon with white striped ones like this in 1978 when I was in 6th grade and I thought I was the coolest kid in school. Now at 52 I feel like the coolest old guy on the block with these retro Tigers. I am surprised how soft the leather is and how cozy they are. Love them!!

I had to go a 1/2 size up to a 9, which I rarely need, but these shoes are great looking and fitting once you get the proper size. Customer service for the exchange and fast shipping were perfect as usual!

Overall great shoes. Like some said they do have higher heels so I wouldn’t recommend wearing these without socks as it’ll rub your Achilles area & give you blisters. I fixed mine by simply adding extra padding inside. Sole is higher that other Onitsuka but not too high therefore gives good cushioning and added comfort. Suede part does get dirty easily but that’s to be expected anyway.

The fit is spot on perfect. They are great looking and one of the most comfortable pair of sneakers I have ever had.........and that's saying something given that I am 55 years old...LOVE LOVE LOVE - Tigers are not as common as Nike, Adidas etc and that is part of the allure -- I'm a bit of a sneakeraholic and am already eyeing several other Tiger Onitsuka models to feed my addiction :) I'd give more stars if they were available to be given!

A great classic ~ true to size.
First off the tigers are my one of my favorite classic shoes, right up there with Puma and Adidas. The camel corsairs look great, for both casual and athletic events. The shoe definitely feels true to size. I had originally bought a pair one half size larger than my usual size because I read reviews stating that the shoe felt a half size smaller than marked. That was not true in my case and I have what I would deem to be a pretty common foot size. I had to exchange the shoes for my actual size, which was easy; however, I would have preferred not to go through that. Just a heads up.

A retro Tiger -
Back in the early 70's, the ONITSUKA TIGER CORSAIR (CORTEZ) WAS MY FIRST PAIR OF RUNNING SHOES! I found a pair in Rome, Italy and then found yours...I love them! I hope to make more colors available!!! Wearing them, for a 52 year old Track Coach with 28 years coaching experience, is like traveling back in time. Thanks for making them available and please, more colors!!!!! David B

Its a cute casual sneaker that looks exactly like pictured. Feels just a wee bit small but will probably feel better once broken it. Just a tad tight in the toe box but I often have that problem. Over all I do like them and glad I purchased!

They feel good right out of the box. The sheen of the leather is right on the mark, just shiny enough. They have that long, svelte look. Maybe if your feet were really big, and you wanted small looking feet, you wouldn't like them. But I do.

Wonderful shoe...light and very comfortable. I really like the retro look and the leather uppers. Have had numerous compliments at the local Y where I go to work out each day.

Great retro shoe -
Had a pair of these 30 years ago, though in Nylon not suede. Wish they still had the nylon upper but these are close to the original. Very comfortable and light, but these would not take a lot of abuse for that reason. I ordered the next size up because I recalled they were small for the size.

I've worn Limber Up Moscow’s for the last year and a half, but since they've been discontinued had to find a new style. These are nice and light like Limbers, with way more sole padding and arch support. I bought the blue/yellow, which are made of what seems like nice suede, (not the cheap leather the other fellow mentioned) and I’ve even worn them in the rain a couple times (with a spray-on protectorant, of course). They're a little snug for 11s, though, but they not uncomfortably so.

I get Mexico 66's in 10.5's as they manage to shape to my feet quite well, these are a bit thicker and more restrictive so I went with an 11. These should be better for non-summer weather though. Normally wear running shoes in 11's, and casual sneakers/boots/loafers in 10.5. Will see how they shape over time!

These are a bit tight in the toe box, if you're planning on wearing them a long period of time. I have normal width feet, never had to purchase a wide width, but these felt constricting after being one for an entire workday. I am on my feet a lot at work.
However, they're super cute and I love the way they look with an athletic skort or white skinny jeans.

I like the look of these shoes a lot but I can tell they will take some time to break in. The tongue hits the upper of the shoe in a strange way and the rubbing makes a bit of an annoying squeaking sound. Apart from that, they look and feel great.

Look great, seem like good quality. Ran small and not enough arch support for me so I'm returning them.

I was looking to replace my beloved Colorado Eighty-Five’s, the perfect sneaker for my feet which became a tasty treat for my dog! The Corsair is not the right shape for my feet: the correct size rubs against my toes, and the next half-size up provides greater comfort at my toes but slips at the heels. I’ll keep looking...
