Great quality boots, but the style wasn't for me. The calves were too snug to look good over jeans, and the ankles were too bulky look good with skirt and dresses. Too bad - I wanted these to work!
I have a narrow ankle but wider toebox. I normally wear an 8.5, or a 9 if the shoe is cut narrow. In these boots, I took a 9 - the 8.5 really pinched.

I had a pair of these boot 43 years ago (got them in my late teens). I wore and wore those boots. The third time I had them re-soled the shoe company ruined them, they were never the same so, alas, I had to say good buy to my old friends.
Now, at 63 I thought it was about time to get another pair of Frye boots. I was delighted that they still carried my old favorite. I got mine in the saddle color because that was the color of my originals They fit great, like a glove!

I purchased these boots in 1996 in burgundy. They only get better over time, excellent American craftsmanship. A wise investment!

Just received my Womens Campus Frye Boot in Dark Brown! I had this boot in the '70s in Banana - and loved it then. This boot has stood up to time excellently in its style, and fit and the overall look of this boot! Own many other Frye boots and love them all - but this one by far is my favorite. As far as sizing goes - I have always been an 8 1/2 in their boots as well as my actual shoe size - I saw from other reviews to order a half size smaller -- I do not agree - unless you are going to wear these boots with a very thin sock - I wear my thick socks with them and my regular 8 1/2 is a perfect fit! Zappos is the best! After ordering them on line - I received them the next day!

Loved this boot when it arrived. I wish it came in wide calf as it was too snug for me to consider keeping. Maybe I could wear them with leggings, but jeans tucked in simply wouldn't work. Too bad...I ready like them.

I bought the Campus 14L in Banana and am so glad I did! I love them! I am still In the process of breaking them in, but they fit better every single day. Everyone asks about them as they are really beautiful! I have wanted a pair of Frye Boots since I was a teen, and bought them with my Christmas money this year. I am a size 7, and I first ordered a 6.5 as the reviews showed that they tended to run large, but they were to small. I returned them order a 7 and they fit perfectly true to size! love them! Do not hesitate to buy them, you are worth it!

I love these Frye boots: Campus in black. I coveted this pair for 40 years before finally buying them, and they are as good as my dreams. I already had a pair of Frye harness. For both of these styles, I'd say it's true what people say, that they tend to run large. Depending on shoe brand and style, my feet usually fit either 7 or 7.5, and Frye size 7 fits me fine. This may depend on the style, though; once in a store I attempted to try on Frye Veronica tall, and could not even get my foot past the boot ankle. For the check box that asks about fit, I'll check "true to size" as it's difficult to convey these subtleties. Anyway these are beautiful boots. I can wear them through a 12-hour work day with no regrets.

After wanting a pair of Frye Campus boots for years, my 3 grown children surprised me with a pair for Christmas. I am a very consistent size 7.5 with a slightly wide foot. Found the boots a little loose in the heel and a bit too tight in width. I think after breaking them in and adding heel pads, they will fit well. I love them and they look great under jeans.

I think I am in the minority here - these boots fit more snugly than I expected. My normal shoe size is an 8½, but I returned these for a 9, which fits much better. I have short legs, so these approach my knees. But if you are taller, keep in mind these likely will not be knee-high on you. Overall, though, great boots, and the quality seems high.

I have these in banana, and they are so gorgeous. I wish they had named the color something else. "Banana" doesn't do them justice. They are super comfortable and look great with everything. I love the leather on these more than any other style. The leather on these is thicker and has a better quality than some other styles. The heel height is the absolute perfect lift. I wore them all day right out of the box. They are super easy on and off as a pull on style. People have literally stopped me in stores to compliment me on them. My wish: a short version and a shearling version. I would by both.

Love the cool, rustic look of these boots. They are warm and fit well- I'm an 11- 11 & 1/2 and the 11s are just right. They are comfortable on; only complaint is they are on the heavy side and my feet/legs can be sore after wearing all day or doing a lot of walking. I'm used to Birkenstocks so plan to get a Birkenstocks arch support/insole which may help. I have them in saddle and they go with everything. Craftsmanship is impeccable, I know i'll have them forever. Money well spent.

I have wanted these for a long time, and finally purchased. I bought them in the banana color, and they are so pretty that I wish they used a more elegant name for the color choice. The blond tone is beautifully marbled with some darker lines. They are a great heel height for all day wear, even at work, and I am out of my chair from one end of my office to the other daily. I love the height of the shaft and the square toe. They are thick leather and fully lined in leather. I think they, and particularly in the blond color, will pair well with almost anything. I am absolutely keeping them.

Great boots. Wonderful Frye quality. I've heard they run large, but mine are true to size.

I hadn't had a pair of Frye boots in years mainly because if I'm going to invest in a pair of good boots I want to be able to wear them to work and many of the Frye styles are just a bit too casual for a professional office. However, once I saw the Campus boot I knew right away that it work work. The boot fits true to size and with the slightly higher heel, it looks great with skirts. These boots are a bit more expensive than some but I can tell they'll last a long time. You won't be sorry once you have them in your closet!

I have a pair of these boots, this style, from 45 years ago. I keep them in the back of my closet as they are too small to wear now. I'm keeping these for posterity and will give them to some deserving rebel country girl that will appreciate them. Hope to purchase a new pair. Love the FRYE label!

I purchased my boots 10 years ago, and they're still every bit as gorgeous as they were the day I got them! The craftsmanship is absolutely unsurpassed. If you take care of your boots (as in refraining from wearing them when it's raining, snowing, etc.), they can last up to 30 years with minimal maintenance. I originally bought my pair of Frye boots because my dad had had a pair for decades. I think the same will happen for me with my boots. If you're considering making a purchase, go for it! As far as I'm concerned, this company and these boots are top of the line.

Hands down, my favorite boot ever--and I am boot-crazy. I purchased these 15 years ago (banana) and I am just now having to re-heel. I wear them all the time, great summer boots with dresses. I always receive compliments on these boots. I own 4 other pair of Frye boots (and, many, many other boots (Stuart Weitzman, Aquatalia, etc) and these are the best. They are well made, look fantastic, comfortable, and, well, just amazing. I wish I had purchased another pair 15 years ago when they were 1/3 of the price...

This is my first pair of Frye boots. I have always admired the craftsmanship. I tried on 9 different styles. They really do fit very differently. After wearing them 1 day they were broken in! Such beautiful leather! Note: not all of the boots have the finished inside leather and not all are made in the USA for the price I wanted both. It will state it on the box. The leather soles are just so well made .....can't say enough great things! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the banana yellow!

Loved the boot, downsized, but should have kept my regular size. I have small calves, so they were snug even for me. Would have to wear leggings only with these. Quality was A+.

Love the Frye quality! These boots boots are a classic! Invest in some leather conditioner as they are stiff (& narrow) at first. As with any fine leather, the more you wear, the better they will get to know you.

I have wanted these boots for years and finally got them. They were snug across the front part of my foot, scrunching my toes, so I brought them to a shoe repair place and had them stretched a little for a small cost. I love them. They fit well now and look great. The calf part fits me well. I'm 5'9" and average weight. I bought my usual size 10.

This awesome boot is the quality I expected from the Frye name, the leather is superb, with an interesting coloring on the surface to give it a worn, fashionable appearance. I was pleased to find that these boots were made in the US, versus China - which I noticed on several other boots made by Frye. I love this shoe, it makes a great addition to my wardrobe. It matches with so many things.

I am deeply and profoundly in love with my Frye Campus 14Ls, and I owe it all to Zappos, who worked with me until I got it right. Order a 1/2-size smaller than your normal size! Also, be warned. This is not a tuck-your-pants-in boot for me. Fine with me, because that's not how I roll.
