Onitsuka Tiger History



The astonishing Tiger story
The history of Onitsuka Tiger began with the establishment of Onitsuka Co. Ltd. in 1949. Based on the philosophy of bringing up sound youth through sports, the company has maintained the tradition of specializing in the manufacturing of sports shoes using original ideas and applying epoch-making techniques.
As the Japanese people recovered from the war and began to appreciate the benefits of sports, Onitsuka Tiger shoes were on their feet. The first basketball shoes in Japan had a tiger face design on the arch of the foot and this became Onitsuka's trademark.
In the 1960's, Onitsuka Tiger sports shoes were worn not only by the Japanese, but also by top foreign athletes.

Onitsuka Tiger Gantrai™




Product Description


Introduced in 1977, the Gantrai was the execution from an idea by Mr. Shigehiro, a famous Japanese mountain climber. Concerned with the safety of fashion conscious climbers who had started wearing normal trainers, he took the outsole from an ASICS® baseball shoe and married this to the upper of a normal training shoe! Thanks to his ingenious hybrid, climbers could now be safe and fashionable at the same time.
