The stylish shoe you see pictured above is the Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81 by Asics in Black/Charcoal. A lot of people want to know if this shoe is vegan. I happen to own this very same pair, and I can assure you they are made from 100% synthetic materials. The tricky thing about Ultimate 81′s is that not every pair is vegan. Most of them are, but a few have some real leather on them.
The following other colors are generally agreed upon as being 100% vegan: Black/Birch, Bright White/Amazon, Indian Yellow/Gold, White/Red, Red/White, and True Blue/Birch. If you’re purchasing a pair of Ultimate 81′s online, you’ll have to trust that the seller correctly labeled them as vegan or not. If you’re buying them from a store, all you have to do is check the label on the inside of the tongue where it tells you what materials the shoe is made from.
Here is a complete list of vegan Ultimate 81′s from Asics ordered by style and color code thanks to the good folks over at VeganKicks:
