 Frye boot review Feb 06, 2010
The advice to go a half size smaller provides a good fit for the feet in these boots, but then the calf can be too tight. Otherwise, these boots were as pictured and described. I like them.

 40 + years for 1st pair of Frye boots Dec 30, 2009
Love Frye boots, first pair lasted 40+ years and weren't repairable. Ordered the same style although my first pair had more of a squared toe compared to my new pair. Had to get this pair stretched since my right foot is wider than the left foot due to years of point Ballet classes and three broken toes from dirt bike tip over. Still doing a break in routine which is working. Had to drive to Berkeley, Calif., about 25 miles from Walnut Creek, to try on a pair for a size reference. An 8 1/2 was too long, my old pair was size 8 so that's what I ordered. Length is perfect, width will get where it should be as leather gets broken in.

excellent purchase Dec 28, 2009
Ordered a half of a size down (normally wear an 8, and I ordered a 7.5) and they fit perfectly! No problems wearing them at all...no blisters, etc. I will definitely purchase another pair of Frye boots in the future. Also, Amazon had the best price by a long shot.

Quality Boot - Comfortable Nov 20, 2009
I rarely purchase shoes online because fit is a gamble, but I wanted a good quality boot to have for years. Based on reputation and reviews, I knew Frye would fit the bill. I took the chance and ordered them, a half size smaller per some reviewers. They came in the day before a business trip to NYC. I thought it might be a bad idea, but I couldn't help but wear them (we were casual dress that day). I wore them from 4:15 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. on Day One. I went to the airport, pulled them off for security, flew from Boston to NY, walked a few city blocks, sat in a conference room all day, walked some more to dinner, took a cab back to the airport and got the last flight home. How did it go? Fantastic! When I put them on the day before, there was a slight pinch near my pinkie toe, but within two hours, the leather had adapted and I've never felt it since. The boots were comfortable all day long, and every day since. The quality of the leather and sole is excellent. I can tell that these boots will be with me for many years. Thanks Frye.

 Not sure what to do... Sep 29, 2009
I did listen to all the advice and ordered down 1/2 size. They are so tight, and it appears I should not count on them stretching out. The banana color was gorgeous, I was so in love with them I re-ordered up 1/2 size and they fit perfectly. Problem is the new ones that fit are more orange, and they have TERRIBLY pronounced dark orange stripes going through the leather on the shaft, and I planned to wear them with skirts. One boot is way worse than the other, they don't look like a pair. I am fully aware that leather has imperfections, but these look defective. I have waited a long time to spend this kind of money on my dream boots, now I am not sure I want to risk ordering again.
