Decent!

Tarther OG is the boss. Its sporty low-top silhouette is unmistakably reminiscent of the 80s performance shoes from ASICS. Originally released in 1983, Tarther OG was revamped with current shoe technology to make them light and comfortable whether you are on a short run or just rocking them fashionably in the streets.

The kicks are narrow, said several testers. They run a half-size smaller, a sneaker fan pointed out. According to a sneaker aficionado, ASICS Tarther OG wouldn't work on big feet. One tester shared that buying the kicks in their normal size “felt too tight around the midfoot section.”
