The Asics/Onitsuka Tigers are the lightest shoes I've ever owned, my Converse feel like combat boots in comparison.

Go for it, man. I used to wear the 81 Ultimate Tigers, and they were great. Amazing pedal feel but I always had the issue of the heel area grabbing on the carpet because of that little lip it has; made it a little annoying everytime I would lift off of the clutch or transition from brakes to the accelerator. Plus, I just found them super uncomfortable for any extended periods of walking (terrible flat feet). By contrast, for a mild trade-off in pedal feel, the MacBeths are super comfortable, have a smooth heel area so no grabbing, and they're a lot more reserved styling wise.
