I ordered the plum color, which is very rich looking. The zipper was a bit rough on the right boot, and the interior zipper flap curled funny on the left boot. The heel did not feel stable on the right boot. I was concerned that the suede heel would not wear well.

Rosita, I bought this in black. I wear a 7 1/2 and they fit perfect. I love the heel size, looks great with jeans. Born shoes are my favorites as they are very comfortable to walk in all day. I have a high arch so there shoes have great support even in there higher heels.

I ordered these in the plum color, which was absolutely beautiful. The style is very cute with the pleats and the button. They were fairly comfortable but when I walked, my foot kept sliding forward and jamming into the toe of the boot. An insole probably would have solved this but I didn't feel that the usual Born quality was there. The zipper was very hard to zip and I was afraid it would eventually get stuck. The flaps under the zipper were rough, although you probably wouldn't be able to tell with thick socks. I ended up returning them because they didn't seem worth the price.

I love these shoes! They are super comfortable considering the height of the heel and look both sexy and casual. Is that even possible? I was skeptical of the price, and nervous about the splurge, but am glad I had a moment of weakness. I taught 2nd grade in them all day, and then went out to a show that night and danced for hours. You can't beat it when shoes are that versatile.

The Rosita is a nice versatile boot for work or casual. Very comfortable, but I wasn't able to stand in them all day. I work 10 hour shifts on my feet and I find these don't quite last all day. The only shoe I have found I can stand in all day are Dansko brand. I am still happy with my purchase, these are a cute dressy boot.

I have not worn this boot for an extended time yet, but did go about the house for a few hours in them. They are very comfortable and true to size. I have wide feet and was not squeezed by these. The height of the boot does a surprising thing; it has the effect of visually lengthening my legs, more so that the average bootie. I am looking for these in another color, in fact. Very pretty boot, good for wearing with dresses.

I don\'t wear heels very often, but these boots are very comfortable. My issue with boots is that I have long feet and thin legs, and have difficulty finding boots that aren\'t too big around the leg. These boots were almost two inches too big around my ankles, but my very kind local shoe repairman altered them and they now fit perfectly. It was worth it to me because I like these boots so much. Born has now replaced Camper as my favorite brand...they keep coming out with really cute and unique shoes.

These boots are so cute and very comfortable. They do, however, run a bit big. You should order 1/2 size smaller. Even though they are big, they don't rub on my heel and I can wear them all day. I love these boots.

I ordered this boot in the purple/wine color to add some punch to my mostly black urban wardrobe. I was delighted when they arrived because they are comfortable, fit nicely, and look more expensive than they are. They also have a rubber sole which is not too obvious, and this helps with comfort and traction. A great choice.

Love these "boots"! They're extremely comfortable, while also being very stylish. I've had many comments on how cute they are. Great with pencil jeans or leggings.

These will be the coolest boots you own! I absolutely love these boots! Frye has such great style! People compliment me on these boots all the time and ask where they can get a pair. I love the fact that I can wear them with jeans or skirts, for work or play. I work at a stable, riding horses everyday, and comfort and durability are essential. They have more than held up. Plus, the more beat-up they are, the cooler they look. I've worn these boots everywhere for the past five years! When it came time to buy another pair, I searched high and low for these. Another brand just won't do.

Frye's Biker Boot-Womens. When Stevie Nicks sang " I wear boots all summer long" she touched my boot strings. I wear boots all year long, no matter the weather. Despite all my boots vintage and new, and as an old lover of the biker/engineer/cowboy variety, these are the most amazing in my possession. I have never worn such comfortable boots, stunning with vintage Levi's or my Donna Karen long evening dress, dress em up or down. The more beat up they are, the better. Look good on the feet or hanging on my wall. Keep up the great design, Frye's, us hippy cowboy girls need these boots...

Better Than You Think! This boots are gorgeous! They're not at all masculine looking. In fact, they very feminine with a decided edge. However, I sadly returned mine. I have a narrow foot but a high arch and I was completely unable to get my foot inside the boot. I so wish I could wear them!

Footwear Hall Of Fame Entry - This city chicken recently acquired these boots after finding them in a most unexpected venue. I was so excited that I literally wore them out of the store. I work in a very upscale, fashion-aware enviroment, no stranger to the fashions heirarchy, and these have held their own with many, many compliments and inquiries. In a word, people are jealous! I own one other pair of Fryes, a black lace-up. After fifteen years of hard use, they're still roadworthy and, believe it or not, still garner the compliments. These are amazing boots. From the beginning, they were an all day wear. Frye deserves complete respect and admiration for continuing to produce a product that has upheld quality, durability and desirability. The weathered brown color is completely wonderful and authentic in all ways. The construction is amazing and comfortable. They have a western edge, but in a subtle and fashion forward sense. These boots leave no doubt that they could go through hell and high water! They have my vote for inclusion into the fashion hall of fame. P.S. Ralph Laurens' stylists use lots of Frye products for their shoots and runways. LOVE!

Definitely a classic. These are stylish, rough, and sexy all at the same time. I tend to wear more feminine styles, but I love to pair my tough-girl Fryes with frilly skirts. I like the contrast. People don't know what to think. Frye's are the best. I still have a pair from college ten years ago.

Wonderfully Tough Boots! Getting these boots was a dream come true. I had lusted after these boots for the longest time after I saw them in an issue of Allure. I was finally able to buy them, and I absolutely LOVE them. They are tough-looking without being clunky or manly. They look like you could tiptoe around and then kick somebody's butt. They are comfortable and warm and have accomplished the impossible... They make me look forward to colder weather so that I can start wearing them again! The best part is that the more you wear them, the better they look. So buy them and wear the heck out of them. You'll love them.

Too flat. I ordered these thinking they were a bit more feminine looking than they are. I would prefer that they have a slightly taller heel, maybe another inch. Frye's are great boots but perhaps a bit too authentic for me.

Too good to be true! This is a case of love at first sight. I thought for sure that my high instep would have prevented me from getting my feet in them, but alas, they fit like a dream. The insole is extremely cushy and comfortable. The rubber sole is flexible. Made in the USA. There almost couldn't be a better boot, but I, too, wish the heel were taller. But that's no big deal. Frye's Harness boot is great.

My Sole Mates! I'm a ridiculous shoe fiend, obsessed with shoes, own great numbers of shoes, can't fit them all into my bedroom. So, given all the choices available to me daily, it's really quite special when a shoe makes it to heavy rotation, and the Frye Women's Harness made it there on the first day! Exceptionally comfy, requires a wee bit of breaking in if your foot tends to be wider, looks amazing with everything from denim, to tweed to girly skirts. This boot was made for minis! I get tons of compliments every time I wear them.

Great boot - The boots look and fit better than I expected. I spend a lot of time outside with my children and these boots are durable but look great. Also, I received my order much sooner than expected, which was a nice surprise. Thanks.
