I just got these in red and they are fantastic! I wear 7-7.5 and I got these in 7. They are loose for me, but with socks in the winter they will be better. The heel slips a lot, and I'm not used to that. I have paired this color with literally everything in my wardrobe and it all looks great (with the exception of pastels, but I never wear pastel colors). Love my boots! Zappos rocks!

I absolutely love these boots! I ordered them in Dark Brown Crazy Horse and the color is a really great combo of dark and medium brown. It 'looks just a little worn-in, in the right places. I normally wear 7 - 7 1/2, sometimes an 8, and I ordered these in a 7. It did feel a little loose compared to other shoes, but it was the perfect size. The place that the fit was most important to me was through the arch and it was just right and they didn't slip around at all. I wore them for a few hours the first day and they rubbed a bit on one of my ankle bones, but never bothered me after that. The next time I wore them was on a week long vacation in SF & Napa and walked everywhere in them. I was actually shocked as to how comfortable they were. I received so many compliments on them and am planning to buy my boyfriend some men's Frye boots for his birthday. These were my first pair of Frye boots (and certainly won't be my last) and they were worth every penny. Also, Zappos is awesome. I ordered my boots 3 pm Central time and got them less than 2 days later.

Unbelievable!!!!!
I got this boot in red and it is so comfortable and SOO hot!! Everyone stops me to ask where I got this boot. I (reluctantly) tell them Zappos -- because I like being the only one I know in LA with them. It is so cool and an incredible quality boot that will no-doubt last for years and years. Order your own size. It will feel loose but that is right on. It is not a sneaker. As always, Zappos is incredible. I wish I could do all my shopping for everything at Zappos.

Really slick -
These are the most expensive shoes or boots I've ever purchased, but are they LONG on style. Absolutely stunning! I read a lot of the reviews and nervously ordered size 8. I wear anything between 8 and 9 depending on the shoemaker. Never having owned a pair of Frye's I took the gamble and ordered the smallest I normally would wear in a shoe.
Wow--it's like I tried them on in the store. PERFECT fit. These look absolutely killer with skinny jeans. Zappos rocks--I ordered these at 3 p.m. and had them the NEXT day at 6:30 p.m. Thanks Zappos!

My favorite boots! Comfortable, cute, classic. I ordered them in a 7 (my normal size) and had to send them back for a 6.5 and they fit like a dream!

These are the most expensive shoes I've ever bought. However, I was not disappointed. These boots are great quality. The leather is very thick. They will last long enough make it worth the splurge. They arrived promptly and they look just like the photos. I ordered a size 7.5 as suggested by the other reviewers. Normally I wear an 8 or an 8.5. They've taken about a month to break in. One of the boots was much tighter than the other initially, but now they both fit perfectly. Which is fantastic because I have very wide feet and find it difficult to get shoes that fit comfortably.

I absolutely love these boots. They form to your foot and you don't even know they are there. They are also very nice looking. I would highly recommend.

I love these boots -
These are the best looking boots. They are pretty comfortable right out of the box but need some breaking in. My feet were killing me after the first time I wore them but I can tell they are going to break in and be comfy. I wear a 9.5 or 10 and I got a 9. I think this is the right size. Any bigger my foot would be sliding around too much. These are really worth the price!

These boots are lovely and well made. I am a true 7.5 with a slightly narrow foot (usually a medium width is okay for me, sometimes not). Given that many of the reviews say size down and some have said size up, I just went for my regular size. I will be exchanging them for a half size smaller as they slip and slide at the back of my heel even with pretty sturdy socks on. The supple leather looks like it will stretch some with use, so I am afraid the looseness with only get worse. Paradoxically, they make my feet look dainty!

Great boots!
Beautiful boots, fit great and very comfortable. I have wide-ish feet and athletic calves and these boots were no problem for me, size 7.5. I was also pleasantly surprised that there was no "break-in" period.

Great boots -
Despite the cautionary reviews about the sizing of these boots, I bought an 8.5. They were very, very long. I ordered the 8's and love them. I would bet a 7.5 would even fit, but these boots are so narrow I didn't want to push my luck. Plus, being Frye's, the leather stretched a fair amount as they broke in. (Frye's tend to be very easy to break in and these are no exception). The red is a very deep color and I love the squared off toe.

I LOVE these boots!!! I got them in distressed brown and had been looking for a traditional cowboy boot. Nothing looked right on me until I found these! They are very comfortable and well worth the money!!!!

Fast service, hot boots -
I ordered these boots at 11:30 PM and they were on my feet at 1:30 the NEXT DAY. Instant gratification--thanks Zappos! The boots are gorgeous--I got them in RED. They are comfy and supple right out of the box. Fabulous leather, last forever soles.

ZINCREDIBLE!
When I first saw these boots, I knew they were for me! They were exactly what I was looking for for so long, and I mean long. I must say though, I was a little leary because I never purchased any shoes or boots online before, but the look and quality of these boots sold me! The way they were displayed on Zappos.com showed every detail that you could imagine. I don't consider myself to be a picky person, but I know what I like and what I want in a boot and that’s not always an easy thing to find. My Frye Harness 12R is so awesome in every way! The style, the fit, the craftsmanship is unbelievable! These boots will last a lifetime for sure! I can't express enough on the care and respect that customer service gives to its clients. I placed my order without any kind of hassle, received my confirmation email and within less than 48 hours my boots were delivered at my door ready for me to slip them on and break them in, not that they needed to be broken in because they are so comfortable! I now know what to expect when ordering from Zappos.com, and that is:
Quality items; caring services; and an outstanding company to work with...Zappos.com will definitely become a habit with me! What more can I say other than they are ZINCREDIBLE!!!

I just bought these boots last week, and I haven't stopped wearing them since! They do run a bit big, and I followed everyone's advice and ordered a half size down (from a 9 to an 8.5) and they fit perfectly. They are rough looking but still feminine at the same time. They look great with skinny jeans, and I've received compliments already! Zappos was also amazing, and I felt comfortable trying out these boots knowing that the customer service would take care of me if I needed to send them back.

Amazing boot!
I had been lusting after a pair of Frye boots for a while, and then finally decided to treat myself to a pair for my birthday. I read the reviews and was told by a friend that it did indeed feel a half size larger than marked. I can wear shoes anywhere from an 8 to a 9, so I decided to get the 8 1/2 and see how that felt, expecting to return them for a different size. The 8 1/2 is perfect though! It was perfect for me anyway, because I don't have narrow feet and I need the breathing room with this boot, since it does feel a bit narrow. I put on here though that it feels a half size larger, because too many people with normal feet, I'm sure it does. (Frye's website also says it feels a bit larger.) However, since I don't really have a definite shoe size, I just went with the middle and it worked out fine. The great thing about these boots is that they take no time to break in at all, and they feel just as comfortable as flip flops to me. They also look great with EVERYTHING. Definitely recommend Frye, and as always Zappos is great! I ordered these shoes late on a Sunday night, and got them Wednesday at noon.

Satisfied Customer- made in the USA -
I am so happy with my new boots. I've been casually looking for these for about a year or two, trying various makes in this style, all lacking fit, and comfort. I met a lady wearing these and immediately noted the beauty and look of quality. She told me the Frye name and a little history of the company. Her daughter had a pair that they resoled due to long wear- I haven't heard of that lately. I went to Zappos and ordered within the week and am truly pleased. I anticipate they will be durable and gain character with wearing. Worth the wait- meant to be.

So comfortable. My new everyday shoe. Size fit perfectly. Was the tiniest bit snug at first but broke in right away. I may only wear Frye shoes from now on.

Half size smaller -
I adore these boots. I ordered an 8.5. I typically wear a 9 in most shoes but can sometimes wear an 8.5 if they run large. When I got them I could barely fit my foot in with tights. I have had them a couple of weeks (about 5 long wearings) and I can wear them with thinner socks. They fit amazingly though. I still can't wear them to walk across campus 4 times in a day without getting a bit of a blister on my heel but they will continue to break in. WORTH THE MONEY! These will last a lifetime.

Great Boot!
Honestly, I was so nervous to buy these boots. I need COMFORT! Cool is great, but if shoes aren’t comfortable forget it. These are so comfortable. I bought the black and wear them every day. They took a few days to get super comfy and for the leather to soften but now they are molding to my feet and I wear them all day! I have an infant and so I need simple, easy and it’s a bonus to have a good looking shoes. These are all three! I will definitely be buying another pair of Fryes. I did buy these a half size smaller as most everyone suggests and I am a true size 8. The 7 and half was perfect.

Once broken in, these boots are comfortable. These boots are fun to wear and I particularly like the special color red. I receive compliments from strangers all the time. A great boot.

I just fell in love...
I've been lusting after a pair of Frye boots for years, and never gave in because they are admittedly a bit pricey. Well, now that I've got them on, I know what the money is for... these boots are amazing!! First of all, they are so solid, there is no doubt you are getting your money's worth. Second, they are absolutely the best looking boots I've ever seen. The leather is gorgeous, the styling is just flawless, and the craftsmanship is obviously first rate. I've only had them for about 5 hours, and I refuse to take them off -- I am deeply in love! They are as comfortable out of the box as some of my old boots after years. I hope they keep getting better as they wear in. A NOTE ON SIZE: half the reviews I read said go up a half size, the other half said down a half size... so much contradicting advice! Then I read a review from a size 6 buyer who said she ordered her regular size and they were perfect. I decided to try it, and she was right! I think maybe if you have smaller feet, it's safe to order your regular size. The instep is snug but not tight, and the heels slip a little but that's normal. I can't wait to wear these everywhere I go! Look out world; here I come with my Frye's on!! (And thank you Zappos for incomparable customer service -- I only had to wait one day! You guys rock!)

Excellent customer service + great boots = WIN -
I originally ordered a size down from my original size but when those boots arrived they were too small. I could get my feet into them with some effort, but they were way to tight with socks. Zappos made the exchange process verrry easy. After a short conversation with a customer service rep online, I arranged to exchange the boots I'd received for the same boots a half size larger. A return label for the smaller boots was in my inbox five minutes later and the customer service woman upgraded the shipping on my order. Huzzah! The boots are beautiful and comfortable to walk in. The crazy horse color is a subtly worn brown and the leather smells really nice. Like a tack store.
