Onitsuka Tiger Shoes Are Making Street Style Trendy Again

Onitsuka Tiger Shoes

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.

Onitsuka Tiger

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.

Onitsuka Tiger

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.

Walmart

Time And Tru Women's Eyelet Halter Dress

White eyelet designs like this one always make great Easter dresses. Though basic in color, you can easily make this one more formal with a blazer or denim jacket or go the colorful route by pairing it with bold accessories. When you're not sporting it for Easter activities, you could also rock it with some cowgirl boots to nail the western aesthetic that's trending right now!

Anthropologie

Endless Rose Strapless Textured Column Midi Dress

The ruffles on this midi moment make it feel oh-so elegant for special occasions like Easter Sunday church service or Easter brunch with the besties. We adore the baby blue color for the season, too!

Banana Republic

Banana Republic Crepe V-Neck Maxi Dress

The multicolor gradient pattern on this adorable dress will definitely make your Easter look stand out. Banana Republic says it's designed with an "easy fit," so you'll feel comfy all day! We're big fans of the v-neckline that's not too modest nor too revealing!

Abercrombie & Fitch

Polka dots are huge this spring, so you could easily style this midi dress for Easter by layering it under a pastel cardigan. Ballet flats feel like the ultimate pairing for this style, but past Easter, it'd go really well with everything from your favorite sneakers to some chic flip-flops for vacay.

What's more is the soft, stretchy knit fabric it's cut from for all-day comfort. It's shoppable in 3 other colors, though we'd say this mint green shade is ideal for Easter dressing.

Walmart

Scoop Puff Sleeve O-Ring Dress

Modest yet still super stylish up top, this maxi dress will undoubtedly turn heads with its stunning puff sleeves and adorable o-ring cutouts. It's made from 93% cotton, so the breathability will be practical for warmer days – even beyond Easter Sunday!

Though it fits so cozily (shoutout stretch fabric!), you'll be feeling uber-elegant from the moment you put it on – perfect for Easter Sunday festivities and spring brunches alike!

Free People

Hutch The Ridge Dress

Smooth and silky, this drop-waist maxi dress is perfect for formal springtime get-togethers or even Easter dinner with your family! The waistline that's intentionally placed lower on the body adds a flattering elongating effect.

'Survival Of The Thickest' Season 2 Is 'And Just Like That' Meets 'Insecure'

I've been floating in the pop cultural abyss because I was clueless about how amazing Netflix's latest comedy Survival of the Thickest is! I just finished Season 2 and it's the funniest and rawest TV series I've watched since being persuaded to binge The White Lotus. But, that's not the show it actually reminds me of.

No, Survival of the Thickest feels like Insecure and And Just Like That had a comedic baby we get to watch grow in real time. There's the familiar supportive friend group, burgeoning careers, and passionate love stories that make you want to call your bestie to complain or scream in excitement.

I genuinely can't stop watching it and can't wait to share why you should be watching it too!

Scroll to learn everything about Survival of the Thickest and why you should watch it this week!

What is 'Survival of the Thickest' about?

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

What happens when you face the worst breakup ever? You cry and find a way to revamp your life, according to Mavis from Survival of the Thickest.

The series revolves around her getting acclimated with being single again while juggling her floundering stylist career. She's got a supportive village, but that doesn't mean she's not prone to making mistakes or facing situations worth cackling about outside of her group chat.

Where does filming take place?

The show is primarily filmed in New York, but parts of Season 2 take place in Italy (via IMDB)!

Who's a part of the cast?

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Survival of the Thickest has a sprawling cast that features some new and familiar faces. According to Marie Claire, here are the main characters who've appeared in Seasons 1 and 2:

1. Michelle Buteau as Mavis Beaumont

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Mavis Beaumont may have started off as a heartbroken stylist's assistant in Season 1 of Survival of the Thickest, but she's since gone on to build a name for herself in Season 2. She's also trying to figure out if she's going to stick with her new love interest Luca or go back to her familiar ex Jacque.

2. Taylor Selé as Jacque

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Jacque is a talented fashion photographer who seems to know what to say to uplift Mavis. Though he starts off saying and doing all the right things, Mavis catches him cheating on her and it leaves her devastated. Interestingly enough, Jacque appears to be remorseful over his huge transgression and tries to prove that he won't make the same mistake again.

3. Tasha Smith as Marley

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Marley's one of Mavis' no-nonsense besties who applies the same tenacity to her career as a finance executive. Her inspirational quips may come across as 'funny,' but she doesn't lie when she encourages those around her to move in excellence.

4. Tone Bell as Khalil

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Mavis is surrounded by even more love with the addition of the creative Khalil by her side. He has a softer approach than Marley, but he still wants the best for Mavis and has no problem helping redirect her when she's ready to throw pity parties. If only he could apply the same principles to his own love life...

5. Liza Treyger as Jade

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

If you've ever had a roommate who triggered you at every turn, you probably had someone like Jade in your life. She's the kind of person who seems like she has good intentions, but always finds a way to do something that feels toxic. Whether it's ignoring boundaries or saying the wrong thing at the worst time, Jade's going to do it.

6. Garcelle Beauvais as Natasha Karina

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Garcelle Beauvais may have left The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but you can watch her break necks and hurt feelings in Season 2 of Survival of the Thickest. She plays former '90s supermodel Natasha Karina who becomes Mavis' client after an initial period of misunderstandings.

7. Anthony Michael Lopez as Bruce

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Bruce has been on a mission to be the best assistant to Natasha Karina for as long as he can remember, so he takes it personally when Mavis doesn't seem to understand her new client in the beginning. Though he warms up to her too, his Type-A personality still follows closely behind.

8. Marouane Zotti as Luca

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Luca's all about Mavis and that's the I like it. Not only is he eye candy, but he's got enough passion stored in his body that makes me feel he's the obvious choice for our love-worn protagonist. However, only time will tell if Mavis thinks she and him are endgame or not.

9. Peppermint as Herself 

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Survival of the Thickest is all about making sure all voices, storylines and identities are championed. Having Peppermint as another close friend of Mavis rounds out her supportive village because she's big on bringing her fun-loving energy wherever she goes. And when Peppermint takes a brief break from performing to get married, Mavis is right there rooting for her.

10. Alecsys Proctor-Turner as Nala

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

My, how the tables have turned! In Season 2 of Survival of the Thickest, Mavis gets her own assistant in the form of the fashion-obsessed Nala. Though she has moments where her naive nature shines through, she helps provide even more comedic relief and moments of clarity.

How many seasons does 'Survival of the Thickest' have?

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

Right now, Survival of the Thickest has two hilarious seasons that are on my weekend binge-watch list.

Season 1's Episodes 

  1. Keep Your Plants Watered, Bitch.
  2. Be a Bad Boss Bitch, Bitch!
  3. You Did What in Public, Bitch?
  4. Are You Crying, Bitch?
  5. It's Any Given Sunday, Bitch!
  6. Do the Right Thang, Bitch.
  7. Let it Out, Bitch!

  6. The Category is Love, Bitch.
  7. You Best Come Correct, Bitch.
  8. It's Not a Mo'Ment, It's A Movement, Bitch!

Where can I watch it?

Vanessa Clifton/Netflix

You can watch Seasons 1 and 2 of Survival of the Thickest on Netflix. Unlike shows like Severanceor Paradise, you don't have to wait a full week to see a new episode!
