Very disappointing. I was expecting a sturdy leather, long-wearing hippie chick sandal and got... basically something from the Bass Outlet. Soles were especially problematic, a thin crepe rubber [the kind that always seems to separate at the front of the sole when you walk on carpet for any length of time]. When I think "Frye" I think old school heavy leather and quality that will last for years. These were made in China, had a rubbery smell, and weren't my idea of a $125 sandal by any stretch. Thanks, Zappos, for making ordering risk-free and returns so easy!

These shoes look great on and are made extremely well, as 99% of Frye's are. They did dig into the top of my toes during the first wearing. I may even have to get them altered (have a cobbler cut the strap and thin it, so the square edges near the toes aren't digging into my feet. Or it will just bend and soften and the problem will be resolved. They are a great looking shoe that you can dress up or down and other then the blisters I got from walking far in them one day, they are comfortable. I love the grey color.

I really like the look of these sandals, but they do not have the best structure and did take awhile to break in. I also have the studded sandals which actually run a bit big, but these seem a little small and they are a bit narrow. Now that they have broken in, they are great. Exceptional quality and classic design from Frye.

Great sandals. The leather footbed is super squishy and comfortable, the outer sole is rubber so you get more cushioning. Plus, you don't go slapping on the pavement when you walk. The ankle strap keeps your foot from sliding around, but also looks great. I got these in the natural, and I love 'em!

Well made and nicely padded, but overall too unstable for running errands all day. They look sophisticated and cool, the footbed is comfy, but the straps bulge along my foot too much and are uncomfortable around my ankles. My heels move out of place when I walk. I am size 9 in shoes, but 8.5, sometimes 8, in sandal, and size 8 in these was fine for my narrow foot.

About Frye
Frye's current Harness Boots are rooted in tradition and continue to draw influence from the Cavalry. Today the classic Harness Boot holds a place in American culture. The Frye Harness Boot has been pictured in fashion spreads internationally. In 1938, on a trip to Washington, D.C., John A. Frye's grandson and namesake met a U.S. Navy Admiral who confided that he had trouble finding the Wellington boots he liked so much. As a favor, John agreed to make him a pair. Frye continued to fill requests for these boots through the Second World War. During World War II, Frye supplied thousands of servicemen with Frye Wellington boots, known as Jet Boots, by mail order.
In the 1960's, Frye reintroduced the Campus Boot, from its 1860 original, featuring a bulky toe and chunky heel that came to epitomize the attitude and the style of the 60's and 70's. There was nothing like these "new" Frye Boots on the market, and consumers began to demand "Original Fryes." When searching for items to represent the America of the 60's, the Smithsonian Institute chose a pair of Frye Boots.
The quality of all Frye shoes is timeless. For almost 150 years, Frye leather products have continued to be benchcrafted from the finest full grain leather uppers. It takes over 190 steps to make one pair of Frye boots. Frye remains dedicated to the commitment of craftsmanship for which Frye boots and Frye shoes have been known for more than 100 years.

These shoes are excellent! No blisters at all and very comfy! The soles are very comfortable to walk in and the super soft leather makes them great to walk in all day. Zappos had great service as always when returning for a larger size!

Well, I would say I am disappointed slightly. First, they are beautiful leather sandals! But They run a half size small and are narrow even for my narrow foot. The T-Strap hurt my toes! And my feet slid around in them like crazy! They were squishy and comfy on the bottom of my foot though. I tried to like them and see passed the flaws, but nope sending them back for the 3rd time!

These were cute, but the black was not a true black, more of a washed-out black\/dark gray. Unfortunately I had to return them because I was looking for a black sandal - the search continues!

I really love these sandals. They are great comfy flats that i can wear pretty much anywhere. The tan/natural color goes great with everything. They are well worth the price as they hold up so much better than a cheap target type knock off.

Ahhhh, love these! I got all 5 colors (a couple on sale, fortunately), they are all sort of distressed/washed colors and I love 'em! Took some getting used to, though. I solved the wandering-on-the foot problem by just tightening the straps a bit more and now they hug my feet and are super for work or walking. Super buttery-soft high quality leather. Cutest is probably the natural, followed by the black (really more of a graphite) and the yellow's are just eye-popping cool.

These are so pretty! I got the nude, which goes with everything. The sole is flexible, allowing for natural foot movement. The leather is soft and good quality, and the ankle strap allows the shoe to fit your foot like a glove. Some other reviews stated that the shoe slid around on their foot, but how it works is that tightening the ankle strap also tightens the strap around your foot. I bought my normal size, and they fit perfectly.

Great, great sandals. Play around a little with the strap and what hole you need and they will fit beautifully. I have done college tours, etc in them. They look and feel great. Highly recommend.

This is a beautiful sandal, but unfortunately, the leather strap between the toes is way too wide. The edges of the strap were digging into my first and second toes, and it was painful even after a few minutes of wearing the sandals around the house. I really wanted to keep these. I got them in the turquoise color for summer and thought they would be comfortable with the wide straps. The strap between the toes, however, ruined the shoe. Too bad Frye didn't make the strap narrower between the toes -- otherwise, it was the perfect sandal. Sadly, they will be returned.

These sandals are so cute. I have been looking for a neutral sandal that buckles around the ankle all summer. Unfortunately, the metal buckle poked into my ankle bone, so I sent them back. Still love Zappos!
