I wear Onitsuka Tigers all the time, but the Mexico 66 style. Love 'em, I have 6 or 8 pairs in various stages of wear and disrepair... They're the modern day version of the Adidas Romes that I wore in my teens and early twenties...

I didn't appreciate Asics have the vintage Onitsuka brand, you learn something every day :)

Matches your jumper well though!
Not this at all.

If you don’t mind me asking, what style are these?

I have had Mexico’s, but these look cool :thumbup:

Thanks. It's a 1979 issue and the case was refurbed recently by John Senior (a military watch specialist). The dial is untouched and I can't believe it's 38 years old either. They don't make 'em like they used to :lol:

Where do you find them?
