Even for those who are unfamilar with the world of anime, you have probably seen the manga and anime series' spiky-haired robot protagonist and his signature red boots.

On a similar vein, since its inception, Onitsuka Tiger was also the first to release true athletic shoes that are made in Japan.&nbsp;
