Wonderful Value
I am a long time Onitsuka Tiger customer, but they are no longer selling their shoes new in the US since November '23. Also, my favorite line of theirs (the Serrano) has been discontinued anyway, so it was time to try something new. Asics seemed to be the most obvious choice, since they are Onitsuka's parent company, and they share a lot of the same design cues.I purchased a pair of these in Size 12 and I could not be happier. They fit me perfectly, and have been extremely comfortable since the very first time I put them on. No break in period necessary. I immediately started working out in them with no issues, walking distance, etc. They look great, feel very well made, and are extremely comfortable. Time will tell how well they hold up (I beat my sneakers up BAD), but they seem to be every bit as well made as their Onitsuka brethren were, if not better.One of the things that quickly impressed me was how comfortable they are with my very wide (read: fat) feet. Most shoes I buy, if I can't get them in a "Wide" size, they crush my feet. Even the Onitsukas I had were pretty tight width wise, even at the same size. Both Onitsuka and Asics have a narrow look to them, but the Asics had no problem accepting my foot without crushing it to oblivion. Possibly the most comfortable "day one" (pre-break-in) sneaker I've ever worn. I have a pair of Adidas high tops that I use for basketball that appear much bigger/wider than these Asics, but the Asics are head and shoulders above them Adidas in the width comfort department. This is a HUGE selling point for me.Overall extremely impressed and will likely be back for more. 5 stars are deserved in all categories other than "support", and that's only because these are low top running shoes... they aren't exactly built for high ankle support or anything like that. These are about as supportive as they look... no complaint, just not the reason to buy them.

Well made good looking shoes
These are awesome shoes. I got them as a Christmas present for my husband and he wears them all the time. They have held up very well and I love the vintage look. I got a super good deal on them and would definitely buy another pair.

Love these!
These are the closest you can get to the classic Onitsuka Tigers without the insane price tag of the current ones. These do run narrow and a bit small so size up at least 1/2 size from your dress shoe. These fit like a running race shoe for those runners out there.I wear a 12 dress shoe or boot but 13 in my running shoes. A 13 in these Asics for me is perfect.

Great looking sneakers- could use more arch support
These are lovely sneakers. Very light and attractive. I bought them with the idea of putting orthotic insoles in them and yet they still run large. I bought 8 1/2 which is supposed to be size 39 women’s European, but it is not. It’s size 42! Because they are men’s sneakers. 😆My big toe Still has about a size worth of space and that’s without orthotics.I would exchange them for a smaller size if it was available.There isn’t enough cushion or arch support for me but I have a high arch and need supportive shoes and those don’t really come in cute styles. That’s why good insoles would work, if these fit.I gave it four stars because of lack of support and cushioning but if they fit me, I’d keep them and use good quality insoles.

Very Narrow
Looked good but way way to narrow for any normal foot. The color was more grey than I expected. The front logo and back logo are a different color gold/orange and the side color was not as expected.I would have kept them if I could handle 1/4 of my whole foot and toe hanging over the side, which would have been horrible. Might be good if you have very very narrow feet.
