I've been wanting a pair of Frye boots for a while now, and finally decided to break down and spend the money on them. They are well worth the price, making other $200-300 boots look cheaply made in comparison. The Blazer Brown leather is gorgeous. I ordered a 1/2 size smaller then what I usually wear, as recommended in the reviews here, and they fit perfectly. They aren't super comfortable- but I've only worn them a few times. I think they will be fine once they are broken in.

I love love love my Frye boots. They run a little big so I got a full size smaller than what I usually wear. But they look great with jeans, skirts and even casual dresses. Love Love Love my frye boots

Love, love, LOVE these boots!! The saddle leather is gorgeous and goes with everything. I have narrow feet but very high arches and often have trouble with pull-on style boots so I got my normal size (9) and it is absolutely perfect! The boots are very comfortable and I've already gotten a ton of compliments. They look awesome with jeans and leggings - and I can't wait to try them with dresses as well! Also, Zappos' service was beyond amazing. I ordered these boots around 8pm and received them by the next day around noon! I would definitely recommend these beautiful boots- well worth the money.

Love the boots, but the best part of the transaction was the service. I ordered a size too large (they run a bit large, by the way - I usually wear an 8.5, but had to go down to an 8) and had to exchange them. I’ve never had better customer service in my life and never was an exchange so easy. I will definitely shop here again. Overall, five star experience. And the boots are beautiful! A little stiff, but that will change as I wear them.

I finally decided to spend the money and get the boots I’d been coveting for a few years. I LOVE these boots. They look fantastic, and they feel great. I decided to spend the extra cash and consider this purchase an investment. They look as good with jeans as they do with casual skirts and pants for work. FYI- I did end up getting a half size smaller than my regular size, which is a perfect fit for me. DO IT!!! You won’t regret it!

I Love, Love, Love these boots! They are very comfortable & look great! They do run about a 1/2 size large, I usually wear 8 1/2 in shoes & boots. I ordered the size 8 & they did feel a tiny bit narrow at first, but they do stretch slightly so after wearing them for a few days, they fit perfectly. The workmanship & leather quality is beautiful. I got the Banana color & they are gorgeous! What else can I say, I Love Them!

Well, years ago I bought the Frye Harness boot in distressed leather (there is a breaking in period) and wore them so much that I had to have them resoled. After those, I ended up buying other Fryes - the short Engineer boot in brown leather, and the Campus boot in brown. It took a while to break in the Campus boot because the leather is very sturdy, but they look really good with everything. I bought the Campus boot this year in the higher length in black, and I really like them a lot. The only complaint I have is they are a little heavy and by the end of the day I’m ready to take them off, especially if you walk around a lot. I also bought the Melissa button boot which is very light weight and no breaking-in time at all, the most comfortable of all. I like a lot of different looks, but if I buy another boot, it would most likely be the Melissa in brown or black (which were sold out in my size) so I bought in cordovan - which is a beautiful rich neutral color as well.

I’m usually a pretty solid 10 in shoes, but after reading all of the reviews to downsize, I chose a 9 1/2 and they fit perfectly. I got these boots in dark brown and the color is amazing. They go with everything and are getting better with each wear. The Frye company has been around for a long time and some of the newer styles seem to blend in with every other boot that is out there right now, but this boot is completely authentically Frye. It definitely has a retro feel, it’s also a little western and a little rugged, but still very feminine. I get compliments every time I wear them and I know that they will last forever. Highly, highly recommended and I love Zappos.

After much contemplation, I splurged on these fantastic boots. They are still a little stiff, but I can't wait until they break in! They run slightly small (I bought an 8 and I normally wear an 8.5). I have worn them with a dress and skinny jeans and get compliments every time.

I love these boots! I bought them in the saddle color and wear them with absolutely everything. They look great with jeans (either over or under) and with skirts, too. They were stiff, but not uncomfortable the first time I wore them. After a few walks they are perfect. They are totally worth the expense!

My BF bought me these boots as a gift. They are extremely comfortable and I wear them at least 3x a week. I have a high arch and this boot did not bother me. I am a Nine West size 8 or 8.5, a Steve Madden 8.5 and a Jimmy Choo 39. These boots I went up a half size to a 9 and I am glad I did. I wouldn\'t say it was made smaller, just go with your normal size and go up a half step. You will want to wear boot socks or wellie socks with this boot and the ankle (no cankles here, ladies) is snug with an average sock on - but has been stretching out over time. The boot is more caramel-colored then chocolate-colored so if you want a darker boot you may want to look at some of their other styles. This boot is plain, almost like a non-embroidered cowboy boot - but I like it for everyday wear to tuck my jeans into!

These boots have quality written all over them. They are sturdy, made of high grade leather, & comfortable (once you break them in). They are completely worth every cent I paid, they'll be around for a long time. Lovin' Frye boots in the windy city!

Love these boots! I am an 8 & I bought both the 7 1/2 and 8. I stuck with the 8 so that I can wear socks with them. I love the heel on these boots and have worn them with jeans and skirts. I imagine having them for a long time because they are very well made.

I ordered these in a 7 following the reviews to go a half size smaller. I wore them around the house and they were very uncomfortable in the toe area. I decided to try my normal shoe size 8. The fit is much better, but I needed a thin insole to help with heel slipping. I love these boots and am happy with my purchase. As always, Zappos rocks.

Best boots ever! I have had my Frye boots for a couple of years now and couldn't be happier. I know I'll have them for years to come. The quality is superb, the style is timeless, and they are very comfortable. I have been a 7.5 most of my life, but after children I seem to be an 8 in lots of shoes. I wavered on what to order, but I ended up with the 7.5 and they are perfect. I don't wear thick socks, just thin boot socks and they are perfect this way. Great with skirts, jeans, bootcut and skinny tucked in. I have the dark brown, but can't keep my eye off the blazer brown and the burnt red. Someday I'll own all three!

I bought the Frye Campus 14L about a month ago and I love them! They are very well made, the leather is gorgeous, and the heel is the perfect height for walking without compromising the look. So far I've worn them with jeans, skirts, and leggings and they have gotten a lot of compliments. The Frye Campus 14L are so cool that I am currently considering buying another pair in black (the ones I got are dark brown). Please be aware that they run at least a half size large. First I got size 8 (all my other boots are size 8), but my foot felt incredibly loose; then I got 7.5 and they would have been okay with insoles and thicker socks. I finally got size 7 and they are perfect. I can wear them with regular cotton socks or thicker ones and my toes would still be comfortable. As long as you get the right size, you will love them!

What can I say? I'm finally the proud owner of a pair of Frye boots. The quality is unparalleled in this price range. I have semi-largish calves and I can still tuck jeans inside. They pair well with skirts or pants and are very comfortable. They're a little stiff at first (not uncomfortable, just you can tell they will break in over time to form to your feet), but I would recommend these to anyone.

Happy! I originally ordered the Jane stitch boot and just didn't think they looked good on me. A little too cowboyish and dressy for my style. Not only that, but I'm too curvy and short for their height on my legs (5 foot 6, 150 lbs). I called and talked to a wonderful lady at Zappos who took my exchange and had my Campus 14Ls at my house 24 hours later! A nice end to a long day at work. Love them! They are funky in a simple utility way and they hit my leg right where the curve in my calf is. I noticed that the Jane boots were a bit large on me, so I opted for a 1/2 size down from my normal size with the Campus. Perfect. I need skinny jeans and leggings now! They look cool under my straight legs though and would be super cute with skirts! (As I said, they hit the curve in my leg just right!) Hope this helps someone! Breaking in will be painful, but who cares? There's just something about a boot that breaks just to fit you. An investment worth making!

I'm only on my second wearing of the dark brown Campus 14L Fryes, but I feel proud to be a member of the Frye club. They are top freakin' quality! You can dress them up or down, they go with everything and are appropriate in almost any setting I can think of. They are comfortable and feel so good going on. This is by far the best quality boot I have ever owned, and I look forward to 20 years or more together.

Awesome basic Fall/Winter boot! So comfortable, a typical Frye fit. Goes well with jeans, cords, leggings and skirts. Key for those cold-weather places: the base keeps your feet really warm compared to other boots. No more cold feet when you are standing in snow!

I have had these boots for at least 20 years. Had them resoled and even dyed them black (original color was saddle brown). I cannot tell you how comfortable they are and how much I love them. You can't go wrong with Fryes.

I have been looking at these boots for couple of years and finally got it in black. They are as I expected (not a delicate boot), but amazingly well made. I did change my mind though and decided I wanted to order it in Saddle color, so I have a order in and am waiting to receive. I know I will be wearing either the black or the saddle for many years. I wish I could keep both. Very comfortable. I am sure like their other boots, the more I wear it the more comfortable it will get.

The item is even better looking in real life, it's very trendy and comfortable, and the sizing is just right. Calf size could have been a tiny bit bigger though but hopefully the leather will accommodate once I have worn them several times.

Not knee-high. These would be the perfect boots if they came a couple more inches up the calf. I'm 5'7" and they hit me at an unflattering part of my calf just above midcalf. I like to wear boots with skirts and dresses, and I want them to come up to my knee, and these don't come close. The calves were also very tight, barely enough room for tights, and I've never really had a calf problem in boots before. I'm so sad to send them back because they're beautiful, but too expensive not to be perfect!
