These are very comfortable, stylish, run half size larger, well made. The sole might be a bit slippery on a rainy day. It's not easy to take them off; I ask my husband to pull them. If you are 8.5 or more, this kind of style, with the border around the shoe, could make your feet look larger, but not these shoes. These are the best!

Wow...these are the boots I have been looking for! I have tried on many flat black boots and they all seemed to bunch up around the ankles and look more like rainboots...not these! They fit terrific! I have also had trouble with boots fitting around my calves with jeans tucked in but I had no problem with these. Additionally, I got the boots earlier than expected...on the second business day! Overall a great experience!

I love these boots. I've been looking for the perfect boot for ever and I finally found them! I get compliments on them everywhere I go, even from men (who rarely ever notice what shoes a woman wears!). I wear them with leggings, jeans, even dresses and they always look hot! I recently wore them for the first time expecting them to pinch or hurt or rub against the heel which is what I get with most new shoes. These didn't hurt a bit. So comfortable. Maybe slightly bigger than actual size. I usually wear a 9.5 and the 9 fits me even with a thick sock. The leather is super soft, fits easily over my calf and into jeans (and I have a pretty big calf). Love the color (I got the tan ones). I hope they do okay in the snow and rain, for this price I expect them to, but that remains to be seen.

I usually have a hard time finding a tall boot that fits over my calves; however, after seeing these featured on the Today Show, I thought I would order them and give 'em a try. I was so excited when I received them today and had absolutely no problem fitting them over a jean. The size seems to be true to size, especially with a light sock on with them. Frye never disappoints!

Love these boots! They are super comfortable and look like authentic riding boots. They are very tall and hit right under my knee (but I am only 5'2").

Love these boots. I bought them in both black and brown. They fit true to size and are very comfortable. I usually have a hard time with boots being narrow around the calf but these are perfect.

Let's put it this way, I was coming home for a long vacation and these boots were waiting for me in their package, and I was almost as excited to see them as I was to see my boyfriend (who I think suspected that!). Anyway, they absolutely did not disappoint. They are more utilitarian and casual than sleek; I wouldn't wear them with a diamond necklace, or if I was going for a really tailored, fancy look. I'm a student and they are perfect for my casual wardrobe. The leather is so gorgeous and the detailing makes them look awesome with tucked in jeans and tights (I actually blew a ton of money on new tights purely to wear with my new boots). I think the little cut out at the back of the boot is a really cute detail and makes for a great back view. I wear a size 8.5, debated going a half size down because of all the reviews, but ended up playing it safe and getting an 8.5 and it fits perfectly. I have wider calves (I was in Europe recently and was so upset I couldn't get a gorgeous pair of leather boots there because I couldn't fit my calves in any of them), but these fit perfectly. They are a great choice for us wider-calved gals. I'm 5'9", have long legs, and these come up to just below my knee. The soles are a little slippery; I nearly toppled the very first time I wore them and it rained. I'd also recommend spraying them with waterproof leather spray to protect this fairly large investment. All in all, a gorgeous boot and perfect for someone with a more casual lifestyle. This was my first Zappos purchase and I was amazed that they got the boots here in about 24 hours, not sure how they do that, but it was by far the best service I've ever had with online ordering.

These boots are awesome; they fit true to size and are very comfortable. I bought them for my equestrian classes but they're fashionable enough to be worn with my regular clothes. The leather is soft, yet sturdy, and you have a lot of room around the calves for those of us girls with slighter fuller legs!

Fabulous boots - Great service -
Boots are lovely. Excellent quality, comfortable and I think they are quite cool! Good advice about sizing - they fit perfectly. They are also practical for riding! Zappos were great to deal with. I had to make a call to order from Melbourne (Australia) and the staff member I spoke with was most courteous and helpful. The order arrived in about a week as advised. Thanks for helping me purchase such great quality boots that were otherwise unavailable in my part of the world. Highly recommend Zappos, their advice and their helpful and speedy service.

An excellent riding boot (even for not riding)
I was looking for a somewhat slouchy brown boot and was having no luck (wrong time of year, clearly). This boot is comfortable and good looking and plenty comfortable. I wear a 7M or W and sometimes a 7.5 depending on the pointiness of the toe, and I don't wear a heel over 1.5" any more (my feet have had enough abuse and never could do the super high heels anyway). These were comfortable the first day and have softened up with wear. I don't have much of an arch so I had little trouble getting them off. Wore to work under a skirt and was comfy all day.
I bought a 7 and found it not at all tight. If you have a narrow foot, it might be too wide.

These boots are beautiful and excellent. Every single time I wear them I get compliments, and these boots are definitely meant to last forever. I normally wear a size 8, but i ordered a half size down and got a 7.5. They are a little tough to get on at first, but my foot fits perfectly inside. I definitely recommend this boot. Frye is awesome.

Beautiful boot but a little much going on -
I was looking for a pair of boots to wear over jeans with no heel (recent foot surgery). I bought these focusing on the circumference of the top of the boot (sometimes boots are too tight). The fit over my calves was perfect but there was a bit too much going on up top that I felt made my calves look big plus I didn't think they were versatile enough. I was really torn about keeping them or returning them as I did really like the boot but opted for returning them in place of another pair that I could wear with skirts, dresses or jeans. If you have a difficult time locating boots to fit over your calves, these are perfect. They are really pretty boots but just not for me.

I'm in luuuuurve!
These boots are absolutely fantastic. Chic, comfortable and timeless. I bought these as a birthday present for myself and I cannot imagine my wardrobe without them! They definitely run large, I am a solid size 9 1/2 and I had to get the 9 for the right fit. They do stretch out a little, but not too much that they slip off. Just perfect - definitely worth the price!

Great!
These are so comfy. The only problem is that they smelled so strongly when I received them - and not that nice leather smell, but more of a fishy smell - that I had to let them sit out for a few days to see if they would air out or if I should send them back. I kept them but after storing them in the box for any length, the smell is back. It's weird, but I started to think the leather might not be good quality even though I paid quite a lot for them.

Love these boots. Awesome quality and you can smell the leather before you open the box. All the reviews boasted about the boots being a little large/wide but I cannot agree. Because of these reviews, I ordered my normal size thinking they'd still be a little roomy around the toe area. Not the case! I'm returning to go a full size bigger! Do NOT order your normal size. Go at least a half size larger. Trust me.

I am usually a size 6.5 but the 6.5 was really tight so I went up to a 7 which was perfect. I love the look of them and the leather is great quality.

These boots look great and although I felt awesome wearing them, I have a high arch which was problematic. Getting them on and off was always a struggle and I finally ended up giving them to my flat-footed daughter. If they were still available in my size I might be tempted to order them again, but I'm looking for boots with zippers now. I ordered a pair that arrived today but I'm sending them back. Still not much arch support and they didn't fit well overall or look good otherwise.

Before I embarked on my search for a tall boot I actually measured my calf size to be 16”. I cant tell you how many boots I ordered and returned because even though they said 16”-16.5”, none of them would fit over my bare leg let alone leggings or skinny jeans. I balked at the price and these Frye’s were one of my last picks especially being pull on as opposed to zipper. They are wonderful. Pulled them over leggings and jeans no problem... but bought my regular size 8. Without sock my foot seemed to wander around and heel slipped though I felt going smaller would not allow my longer second toe it’s room. A thicker sock did the trick but a thinner one not so much. I kept them because my season of wearing them is short lived and a thick sock would be ok for that short time. Ordered the Redwood Smooth Vintage. Beautiful color and was kind of looking for something other than the camel color everyone is wearing. Many many compliments on the boots.

These boots look and feel amazing and the quality of the leather is top notch. I didn't notice that these are pull-ons and lack a zipper. If you're getting these because they offer a larger calf circumference be aware that the lack of a zipper makes these a challenge to get on. Because of this they are going back.

I bought these a few weeks ago and haven't stopped wearing them since. Absolutely love the look and feel. Such quality in them that I was looking for. I would say the calf is a little wide for my skinny calves but other than that perfection. And the more dinged up they get the better they look!

First off, the dark brown antique polished color is amazing. I have wanted a pair of dark brown boots for so long as my last pair were more of a caramel and I wasn't loving it. I usually have to buy wide calf boots as my calf is about 17". Due to this I have also never owned a pair of tall boots that were pull on as I could never get them on over my calf. However, after reading these reviews, I decided to take a chance. I'm so glad I did! As I mentioned, I absolutely love the color I ordered a size 10 and they fit my feet great, no pain at all which I was surprised about since I had heard that Fryes were a pain to break in but so worth it. These boots fit over my calfs but do bunch up my jeans a tad depending on they style of jeans. I haven't worn the boots yet as it has been a surprisingly warm fall so far so I'm hoping that with wear the calf of the boot will loosen a little. Overall, very happy with this purchase, fellow wide foot / wide calf women, take a chance with these boots!

This is a beautiful boot, as all frye boots are. I purchased in grey, and but wish I got it is black so I had more opportunities to wear them!

These are great looking boots! Snug fit new but the leather worked in nicely with wear. A little tight across the toe as I have a wide foot. Soles are smooth leather which can be a little slippery until scuffed.

These are a little tight. I am wearing around the house trying to stretch out. They are more comfortable each time I put them on. By the time fall gets here, I should have them broke in just right. My foot is a little wide and I do have a larger calf. Fits great around the calf.
