These boots are beautiful and actually fit well on my larger calves because of the "bomber" style opening, but the heel, even with the platform, is just too high for me. It doesn't feel stable enough when I walk. If you have no problem walking in super high heels, these are for you! As always, Zappos is amazing.

Very tight and restrictive around top of calf, too bad it is a beautiful boot.

I think these may be my favorite boots for this year. I bought the taupe ones and I think am going to get the black ones also. They are so comfortable. I usually wear a higher heel than this and was worried that I might not like these because the heel was lower, but it’s perfect. Great quality and so cute!!

I was very excited about buying my first pair of Frye boots since the 1970's - I looked a long time and was very happy with this style - until I put them on. I remember Frye boots as being unsurpassed for quality and workmanship, and maybe they still are, but not with the pair I got. They smelled great, wonderful soft leather on the shank of the boot, but when they were on it looked like a low shoe-boot with a leather knee sock attached. The bottom leather is totally different from the entire top of the boot, and it looks it. There was glue showing where the sole attached to the boot as well. Just not worth the money. Very disappointing. Back they go. On sizing - I wear a 7 to 7.5 normally and ordered an eight, which felt a bit swimmy, so I'd say they run true to size. Zappos is the best...makes it easy to buy and return!

I love the look of these boots! They are beautiful looking and very well-made. I purchased them about 3 weeks ago and I've been afraid to wear them. I thought visually they were perfect and I didn't want to be disappointed by the pain of having to break them in. But to my surprise, when I couldn't take just looking at them, I put them on and to my surprise, no pain! I would definitely recommend these boots if you are looking for a classic, beautifully crafted boot! I bought the cognac color and they are perfect. I will definitely be purchasing Frye boots from now on!!!

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.

Beautiful boot, very sexy, great quality. They are very high and initially that wasn't a problem for me, but I find that it sets up a lot of friction on the ball of the foot. My feet are also slightly wide. These feel like they run a little long, but not wide.

I have been looking for years for a versatile pair of black boots. These are it! I have several pair of Frye boots, and usually have to wear them several times to break them in. These comfortable out of the box. Fit true to size. I wasn't sure about the heel, but is very stable and they feel like a 2" heel, not a 4" due to platform. Quality you'd expect from Frye. Looks great tucked in to skinny jeans, cute enough to wear with boot legs, and dressy enough to wear with a dress.

Love these boots! The usual Frye quality and comfort that you would expect. I thought they were true to size. I have a small calf and was so happy to find a boot that actually fit my leg! They are perfect with jeans, leggings...everything! Just buy them.

I had high hopes for this boot, but they were dashed as soon as I opened the box. I was expecting a sleek, snug-fitting boot, and instead what I got was a floppy, slightly baggy, sock-like boot. The shoe part of the boot fit okay - it felt just slightly larger than what I was expecting; however, the entire shaft of the boot from the low ankle to the gathers on top were baggy and somewhat shapeless. I tried to walk in the boots, and they were so loose on my leg that my heel was slipping all over the place. I love Frye boots, but these I had to send back. Sigh.

I love these boots! I never owned Frye boots before, never found style quiet right. These boots have a significant heel, but front platform assures your foot is not in a high heel position. I have trouble buying boots because I have a narrow foot and an even narrower calf. I need to wear medium thickness socks for the foot to be comfortable, but the calf is perfect with skinny jeans or leggings. The color is a deep burnt orange, not garish at all. A nice change from brown or taupe. They are causal overall, but very stylish. Look fabulous with leggings and a sweater dress. I want to buy a pair in black, but a bit hesitant about the price. However, given the fit and style in a narrow calf boot, I will likely cave in soon!

Where to begin on this fabulous boot! I have 10 pair of Frye boots and these are the most comfy of my heeled boots. I got them today and pulled them out of the box put them on with my skinny jeans. I fell in love. I wore them out tonight. I attended a basketball game and while we waited for the team we wanted to see I walked around an indoor track to give them a good test on comfort, after over a half mile on the track... 5 times around on a 200 meter track... No pain... Only love. I got tons of complements, which is so wild and from total strangers! I came home tossed them on with a dress and I think I need another pair. I got the black and they are the bomb! Now I dare I say it...need the brown. Do not think twice....just get them, they rock ! I wear a size 8 ordered the 8 they are perfect. Pulled up perfect, scrunched down perfect, with skinniest perfect, with dresses perfect! They stay up nice and are super cute and edgy. Love!

Perfect boot. Comfortable, can wear to run errands and shop. Wear up or scrunched down. I am very picky and have been looking for the perfect boot for years, this is it. I loved these so much I bought 2 colors and the shorty lace up boot. Now really!

This is my third pair of Frye boots and I love them. I am 5'2" and the shaft is the perfect height for me since it can be pulled up or scrunched down. And even with the heel they are comfortable and look great. My only regret is that I didn't buy them sooner!

Love these boots so much, so comfortable because of the wedge and the super soft leather. Get compliments every time I wear them. Want to save up and get them in the other 2 colors! Bit pricey, but really worth every penny because of the quality and craftsmanship which really shows. 5 stars, feel a million dollars when wearing these.

How much do I love these boots? So much that I own them in two colors (Black and the Cognac). For a boot that offers that much height (serious height!) they are comfortable and easy to walk in. I've never had a heeled boot that I can actually run around the city in. Mind you after many hours on your feet you still will feel some heel fatigue, but this boot is far easier to walk in and far more comfortable than any other I've owned. I also love the look of them. They are sexy and versatile - and the scrunched styling (which is not extreme) makes them more contemporary and fashion-forward than a straight shafted high boot. Also, for me, since I have scrawny calves and fuller thighs, these boots camouflage that nicely. I purchased a 6.5 though truly I am a slightly wide 6. I wanted room for thick socks (and in the Cognac that was the only size available). The Black pair therefore does have just a bit too much room in the heel for me, so I must be careful not to twist my foot when running around in them. The Cognac pair fits tighter for some reason (almost as if the 6.5 were a 6). A heads up - the Black is a somewhat Antiqued Black (b/c of the nature of the leather), so if you wear them with deeply saturated black pants and leggings expect some difference in color.

I really needed some black boots for work...I'm a stylist and am on my feet all day. I also have very muscular calves, so I was concerned with the fit, but these we on sale, and I sucked it up and bought them. I am so glad I did! They are comfy and fit my larger calves because of the stretch. The worst part about boots for larger calves are the cankles they create, but these don't! They make my legs look long and trim. I love them! So happy about this purchase, and I got them super fast! Thank you Zappos!

Love, love, love these boots. I have a couple pair of Fryes and these are my favorite to date. So many compliments when I wear these. My favorite thing is I wear them with a blah Old Navy five pocket denim skirt and they make the outfit look terrific. Comfortable for the height. Sexy, but without trying to hard. I have wide calves and they work fine.

This is one sexy and comfy boot! I went up a half size for easier on/off and so I can wear socks if I want. They fit like a dream. The heel is fairly tall and the platform does not take all of the pressure off, but they are definitely wearable and I am looking forward to cooler weather so I can wear them out!
