Onitsuka Tiger Shoes Are Making Street Style Trendy Again

Jul 29, 2024

Since the beginning of the year, I've heard a lot of buzz around the Onitsuka Tiger sneakers. The Japanese brand originated in 1949 in an effort to make the perfect shoe for athleticism, but they're making a major comeback in metropolitan streetwear style lately. In 2002, the iconic shoe reappeared in Europe in a more fashionable context rather than for sport. Today, you can spot these sneakers all around the world, becoming widely popular for their comfort and timeless look that can go with anything. There are quite literally hundreds of styles and models to choose from, so here are some of my favorite models of this exciting "It Girl" shoe.

Silver / Off White Women Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Shoes

I've seen these sweet silver sneakers all over my Instagram explore page, and TBH I never realized how easy it would be to style silver shoes before now. They look so effortlessly cool with baggy jeans or a maxi skirt, and they can add a little flare to any boring outfit! These are in the Mexico 66 style, which is the most popular design by far due to its retro '60s look that never seems to go out of style. There are endless color combos for this shoe, but this silver pair is by far my favorite and can truly make any outfit fabulous.

Peacoat / White Women Onitsuka Tiger Limber-Up Nm Shoes

This bowling shoe-esque style of sneaker has always fascinated me. In my experience, I've found them to be very comfortable and provide good support for my feet. The padded heel here even provides additional support if you are flat-footed. Basically, these are the kind of shoes I would trust to walk at least five miles in, and look fabulous doing it. This model is based on the original Onitsuka sneaker, so if you're a fan of the retro look, this is a super cool option.

Pine Green / Cream Women Onitsuka Tiger Mexico Delegation Shoes

One can never go wrong with a vintage style suede shoe. They perfectly compliment any daytime outfit, and can even get the dress up treatment for certain evening events! I am a big fan of classy street style — it's a great way to be cool and comfortable at the same time — and these shoes are a great example of that.

Midnight / Dragon Fruit Women Onitsuka Tiger Serrano Shoes

If you Google "style and practicality," you'll probably see a picture of this pair of Onitsuka sneakers. The Serrano was originally designed as a track and field shoe, so if you're looking for a walkable pair of sneakers, these bad boys are perfect. They are designed to be lightweight, flexible, and cushioned to ensure that your foot will get the support and comfort that they deserve. I would highly recommend looking into a pair of Serrano's if you need shoes with a little extra support, but still want to look super fashionable!

Onitsuka Tiger

Mantle Green / White Women Onitsuka Tiger EDR 78 Shoes

This shoes is described as being "an instant hit with runners and business people alike," and i could not have said it better myself. The EDR 78 sneakers were designed for train running, so they're made with a lot of arch support and cushion to ensure that your feet won't feel the effects of a more rugged surface. However, that doesn't mean that you can't also casually sport these shoes on the streets of NYC with a pair of jeans and a baggy t-shirt. The duality of this shoe just blows me away — and hey, if you need to pack light on vacation, you have an everyday shoe and a running shoe all in one!

Onitsuka Tiger

Birch / Cream Women Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 Paraty Shoes

This sneaker might not perform as well as the other sportier options, but I just love a fuzzy shoe, especially in the winter time. This design is just all about comfort — inside and out — so if you're looking for the ultimate walking experience, I would consider getting a pair of these Paraty shoes. These could really compliment any look, whether you're going out to dinner in the mountains, or running down to the bodega to get a midnight snack in your sweats. I would like to call these: an elevated slipper.

Did Natalia Grace's Parents Go To Jail? Here's What Really Happened To The Barnetts

Ever since Good American Family premiered on March 19, there has been renewed interest in the real-life adoption case of Natalia Grace.

The latest Hulu series stars Ellen Pompeo as Kristine Barnett, who adopted an orphan from Ukraine with her husband, Michael Barnett. However, after taking in Natalia, who had a rare form of dwarfism, Kristine began to suspect that she was an adult pretending to be a child.

New episodes of Good American Family are being released on Wednesdays, but as we wait to see what happens next in the TV dramatization, many fans are wondering whether Natalia's adoptive parents ever faced jail time. Here's everything we know.

Scroll to find out what happened to Natalia Grace's adoptive parents, Kristine and Michael Barnett...

Who is Natalia Grace Barnett?

Max

For those unfamiliar with the infamous case, Natalia was born in Ukraine in 2003 and was first adopted by a different couple, Dyan and Gary Ciccone, back in 2008. She only lived with the Ciccone family for two years before they claimed her behavior was disruptive and relinquished their parental rights.

This led Natalia to be placed up for adoption again, and in 2010, the Barnett family welcomed her into their Indiana home. She was thought to be 6 or 7 years old at the time, but soon afterward, the Barnetts claimed Natalia had adult traits, such as adult teeth and body hair, and believed she wasn't actually a little girl.

Additionally, they alleged Natalia was a "sociopath" and had tried to harm them and their biological children, Jacob, Wesley, and Ethan.

What happened to Natalia Grace and the Barnetts?

Max

The Barnetts ultimately petitioned an Indiana court in 2012 in order to change her birth year from 2003 to 1989. Legally, this made Natalia 22 years old, and she was placed in a Lafayette, Indiana, apartment by herself; meanwhile, the Barnetts relocated to Canada with their three sons, Jacob, Wesley, and Ethan.

Afterward, the Barnett family reportedly cut contact with Natalia, who moved in with another couple, Cynthia and Antwon Mans, about one month later. The Mans family petitioned to become her legal guardians in 2016, and by 2023, they were able to legally adopt Natalia.

What happened with Natalia Grace and the Mans?

Max

Nonetheless, Natalia wound up leaving Cynthia and Antwon's home by the end of 2023 after alleging they were controlling. She currently lives in upstate New York with the DePaul family and appeared in the docuseries The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks. There, she called the Barnetts abusive and alleged Kristine had hit her with a belt and pepper-sprayed her.

What happened to Kristine and Michael Barnett?

Max

Following their move to Canada, Michael and Kristine eventually got divorced but maintained that Natalia had exhibited violent behavior. Some allegations include that she'd appeared at the foot of their bed with a knife in her hand and attempted to poison Kristine's coffee.

Despite the fact that they filed the petition to change Natalia's age in 2012, Michael and Kristine weren't charged until 2019. They faced multiple counts of neglect, but Michael was found not guilty in 2022, and the charges against Kristine were subsequently dropped in 2023 after Michael testified in her pretrial.

Kristine Barnett reportedly wrote in a since-deleted Facebook post, "If there had been any abuse of Natalia or evidence of it, I would have been found guilty of it, and I would be in jail. I believe Natalia takes advantage of that sympathy to manipulate people."

Michael filed for divorce in 2014 and later appeared on The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks. As for Kristine, she has mostly flown under the public radar.

Still, following the finale of the docuseries, Kristine shared a long post on Facebook, responding to allegations against her.

"Natalia was a very much loved and cared for member of my family. She was not abused by anyone in my family. Let's get straight to these allegations. Nobody ever took a belt to Natalia, and the allegations that she was 'beaten' are just plain false. Any discipline of Natalia was very minimal and not out of the bounds of normal parenting," she wrote.

Natalia went on to call the docuseries "highly sensationalized," adding, "Michael Barnett and Natalia Barnett may have the same monster, but that monster is not me. That monster, whether it's mental illness, sociopathy, or whatever it actually is, may be different for each of them. But it's within their own psyche."

Who plays Natalia Grace Barnett today?

Disney/Ser Baffo

In Good American Family, Imogen Faith Reid plays Natalia Grace, and Mark Duplass depicts Michael Barnett. Ellen Pompeo has said the latest series intends to show both sides of the adoption story in an "intentional and thoughtful" way.

How To Get Piper Ratliff's style from 'The White Lotus.'

Like I mentioned earlier, all of Piper Ratliff's best outfits are a mix of three things: bohemian, classy, and fitted. While the aesthetic is giving girl off duty, her attention to detail means she always looks put together. Because if you ask me, that's the secret to always looking expensive! Her best outfits feature pieces that are fitted in a flattering way, her accessories are intentional, and everything in her outfit is working together. In this case, less is more.

Dunkin’ Just Refreshed Their Spring Menu With 4 “Fan-Favorite” Items

Looks like it's time for a Dunkin' run, because the chain just added even more goodies to their spring menu! The first part of the Dunkin' spring menu dropped last month with the “highly requested” return of both the Dunkalatte and Pistachio Coffee. This time around, Dunkin's introducing a brand-new energy drink flavor (that truly rivals one of Starbucks' new items) alongside three sweet bites.

Scroll on to see the full Dunkin’ spring menu, including the new 'part 2' drop!

Surprise! Here's What's On 'The Part 2' Dunkin' Spring Menu

Dunkin'

NEW! Arctic Cherry Dunkin’ Energy

Coming up on the first anniversary of Dunkin's energy drinks, this new flavor brings forth sweet and tart notes of cherry alongside blueberry and grapefruit. Each sip is slightly sparkling and said to supply a "revitalizing burst" of energy. Per the name, this drink also comes complete with a kick of caffeine!

Dunkin'

NEW! Blueberry Sprinkle MUNCHKINS

These lil' donut hole treats are dotted with blueberries on the inside and coated with some bright blue sprinkles on the outside, which taste just as good as they look.

2 "Fan-Fave" Drinks Return To The Dunkin' Spring Menu

Dunkin'

Dunkalatte

After selling out last fall, the "highly-requested" Dunkalatte returned to the Dunkin' spring menu! Crafted with rich coffee milk, the latte (that truly tastes like a milkshake) also boasts shots of espresso that make it totally charged with caffeine. Dunkin' called it an "instant sellout," which is all the more reason to give it a try. You can order this baby iced or hot.

Dunkin'

Pistachio Coffee

Another Dunkin' fan-favorite, the Pistachio Coffee, has also made its return to the spring menu! This nutty coffee flavor first debuted in 2018, and I've been dreaming about it ever since. It's made with a "subtly sweet" pistachio syrup and Dunkin's Original Blend coffee for a satisfying sip. It's also orderable iced or hot.

More Drinks On The Dunkin' Spring Menu

Dunkin'

Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso

This Sabrina Carpenter-approved sip will thankfully stay on the Dunkin' menu. It boasts an icy, shaken mix of "bold" espresso, brown sugar, and oat milk.

Dunkin'

Raspberry Watermelon Dunkin’ Refresher

With notes of raspberry and watermelon, this Refresher is the perfect springtime sipper! You'll have a choice of mixing it with either green tea or lemonade this season.

New Dunkin' Snack Alert!

Dunkin'

Ham & Swiss Pretzel Sliders

Sound the alarms! There's an all-new breakfast snack on the Dunkin' spring menu this go-around. Featuring King's Hawaiian Pretzel Slider Buns, these sliders are stacked up with Black Forest ham, honey mustard, and Swiss cheese. There are two sliders per box, so you can easily snack away.

8 "Old School" Western Movies Every '1923' Fan Needs To Watch

No films today can quite measure up to old school Western movies, which transport audiences back to a time of dusty plains, rugged landscapes, and larger-than-life heroes.

These timeless classics, which were often set in the wild frontier of the American West, have helped shape much of modern filmmaking and continue to influence storytelling today.

That's why old school Western movies are more than just a genre; they're a piece of Hollywood history. Here are eight of the most iconic films that still deserve to be rewatched today.

Scroll to see all the old school Western movies you should definitely watch!

Stanley Cramer Productions

1. High Noon (1952)

High Noon, which came out in 1952, depicted themes of duty, loneliness, and moral courage. It followed lawman Will Kane, played by Gary Cooper, who intends to retire and start a new life after tying the knot with his wife, Amy.

However, his plans are derailed when he learns that a dangerous outlaw named Frank Miller is returning to town to get revenge. Will has to decide whether to flee or face Frank himself.

The movie builds a sense of urgency and isolation, as well as provides commentary on the nature of heroism, showing how even people who claim they stand for justice can fold when confronted with personal risk.

Warner Brothers Entertainment

2. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948)

In 1948, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre followed two down-on-their-luck oil workers, Dobbs and Curtin, who team up with a miner named Howard to search for gold in the Sierra Madre mountains. Yet, after they literally strike gold, paranoia creeps in, and the group's bond starts to unravel.

While this film is a classic Western, it also doubles as a psychological thriller and features a lot of unexpected twists that will capture the attention of even modern viewers.

20th Century Studios

3. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)

Paul Newman plays Butch Cassidy in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, the leader of a group of bank robbers. Meanwhile, the Sundance Kid, portrayed by Robert Redford, is Butch's loyal partner, and together, their lives get tougher as banks become increasingly harder to rob.

So, they turn to train heists, but even though the new scheme is successful at first, it soon leads to deadly consequences. They become the most wanted men in the West and get caught up in thrilling escapes and shootouts.

20th Century Fox

4. The Gunfighter (1950)

Released in 1950, The Gunfighter provided a fresh take on the classic Western hero. Gregory Peck starred as Jimmy Ringo, a notorious gunfighter who returned to the town of Cayenne to reconnect with his estranged wife and son.

But since his reputation precedes him, Ringo finds himself facing some people who want revenge and others who wish to make a name for themselves by killing him.

The plotline offers a more somber view of the consequences of being a gunfighter, which challenges the glorified image of the Western hero.

United Artists

5. Stagecoach (1939)

Stagecoach follows a group of passengers aboard a stagecoach, one of whom is Ringo Kid, played by John Wayne. Ringo is an escaped convict who wants revenge for the murders of his family members.

It's true that the movie's portrayal of Native Americans is outdated today. Nonetheless, Stagecoach marked a significant moment in John Wayne's career and remains a popular favorite among Western enthusiasts.

Paramount Pictures

6. Shane (1953)

Shane tells the story of a mysterious drifter named Shane, played by Alan Ladd, who gets involved with two homesteaders, Joe and Marian, as they face harassment from a land developer. After the developer's intimidation tactics get more violent, Shane decides to stay with Joe and Marian's family to protect them.

This film defined the archetype of a strong anti-hero, with a main conflict of violence versus the desire for peace. It also has beautiful cinematography.

United Artists

7. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (1966)

Unfolding against the backdrop of the American Civil War, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly follows three men who get tied up in a race to discover $200,000 buried in gold.

A bounty hunter, a convict, and a mercenary each hold a piece of the puzzle, but none of them has all the information they need to pinpoint the treasure. So, despite their ruthlessness, there are some moments of cooperation that arise out of necessity and set the stage for a showdown.

Clint Eastwood, who portrays the bounty hunter, delivered a poignant performance, as did Eli Wallach and Lee Van Cleef.

20th Century Fox

8. My Darling Clementine (1946)

Finally, My Darling Clementine, directed by John Ford, portrays the famous events surrounding the O.K. Corral shootout. It centers on Wyatt Earp, played by Henry Fonda, who becomes the Marshal after the brutal killing of his younger brother James.

Spoiler alert: Wyatt ultimately learns that one of the Clanton brothers was responsible for James' death. This leads to the legendary gunfight at the O.K. Corral.
