We’ve partnered with Onitsuka Tiger to share why the iconic brand’s range of boots forms the building blocks of a perfect winter wardrobe. 

Blending heritage with innovation, Japanese brand Onitsuka Tiger has been elevated to cult-like status among celebrities and style icons worldwide. 

Pairs of the brand’s sneakers that blend comfort, speed and style have been spotted on the feet of household names, from fashion frontrunners Kaia Gerber, Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber to the likes of Prince William and even Uma Thurman’s Kill Bill character in one of the film’s most iconic scenes.

But Onitsuka Tiger’s sporty-meets-chic sneakers aren’t the only footwear that exudes effortless cool, with the brand recently releasing a range of winter-ready boots that marry function with unmistakable style. 

Poised to become your go-to winter staple as the chill sets in, stay warm and fashion-forward through frosty days with this stunning range of boots - and, of course, we’ve picked out our favourite pairs just for you.

Retro Revival: Onitsuka Tiger’s Resurgence

Founded in 1949, Onitsuka Tiger - the forerunner of ASICS - has experienced somewhat of a style resurgence in recent years. Sparked in part by fashion’s pivot towards low-key looks that blend style with comfort, the brand also regularly releases new twists on classic styles and collaborations with like-minded artists and cultural connoisseurs (hello, Astro Boy, Audi and Tokyo-based graphic artist GUCCIMAZE) that get the world talking.

Fusing Japanese heritage with modern flair, the Onitsuka Tiger Stripes have become synonymous with the world-renowned athletic brand, with each new collection of shoes, apparel and accessories offering a refreshing and unique twist on much-loved silhouettes. 

Holding to the idea that fashion encourages movement and freedom, rather than restricting it, the designs encourage wearers to imagine, experiment, play and grow. The brand’s range of boots is evidence of this, with styles to suit any look, from biker-inspired boots to a winter-appropriate take on the viral Mexico 66s.

The Onitsuka Tiger Boots We’ll Be Wearing All Winter

Modelled after the brand’s most beloved style - the MEXICO 66 - the MEXICO RINKAN boots are available in six shades, from bright white to bronzed green, bright yellow and shiny black. Light and airy, they’re perfect for all-year wear, with the smooth leather finish giving a clean finish to any look. Minimalist in nature, consider this an elevated, wintry take on your everyday sneakers, so pair them with your favourite pair of jeans and a chunky knit to be instantly cosy and chic.

A boot-style take on Onitsuka Tiger’s DELECITY style, the unisex DELECITY Boots are for those who love an iconic chunky style boot. Sightly futuristic in feel (thanks to the design inspired by two archival models - a 1980s tennis shoe and a 1950s basketball shoe), the textured platform sole contrasts against white or black leather. The 9-hole boot style can be perfectly paired with a mini and tights or softened up by wearing them with sheer or lightweight fabrics. 

For those with a more distinctive style, the DENTIGRE PUFF boots are sure to get style-savvy heads turning. Modelled from the DENTIGRE series, with its voluminous soil and curved form, the body is filled with foam to provide both comfort and impactful design. 

An updated silhouetted on the brand’s 1966 HIMARAYAN PEAK hiking boot, the HMR PEAK BOOT is a sophisticated take on the lace-up look. Imbued with the spirit of the outdoors - but still maintaining an of-the-moment fashion feel - the boot features a single bold colour (either black or white) with an embossed round frame inspired by the archives.
