So after reading many reviews regarding this boot, I went a half size up and the fit was perfect. I wear a size 8 but ordered an 8.5. My toes were not pinched and they felt comfortable. The only thing I did not like was that the pair that I received looked like they were already worn. The front of one of the boots was scuffed and both soles looked a little dirty like if they had already been walked in. I called Zappos customer service and the gal was great! She approved my return immediately and we ordered me another pair! The color I got was Cognac and even the customer service rep told me they were gorgeous boots. I told her they looked better in person! I can't wait to receive my new pair and wear them puppies :)

I love this boot - however the inside ( insert) of right boot has a huge wrinkle and is glue - you can'y fix it ....:(

Glad I made the purchase, wasn't sure because I was worried about the fit and sturdiness of the sole. When I received them, perfect fit of course, nice leather and the sole is great.

i read a ton of reviews and everyone said they ran really small and to order up at least 1 full size. i'm typically an 8.5 without fail - but the 9.5 was HUGE and even the 9 feels big. i'm really not sure what to do because I'm worried sizing down to an 8.5 will be too small. maybe i'll just wear thick socks? I do love the boots - and I like the "vintage" look much more than the true black.

I bought these in the early spring and wore around the house because I just couldn't bring myself to take these beauties off! When I finally wore these outside, I got tons of compliments! As usual, Frye does not disappoint. The fit is consistent with all of my other Frye boots. I have worn these with leggings, jeans and skirts--Billy Short totally adjusts to whatever your fashion mood is for the day. The distressed look is the absolute cherry on top!

I am a larger woman, I have big ankles and a wide shaft, so finding a cute bootie or boot can be challenging. These were absolutely perfect. I sized up, from a 9-9.5. The fit is great, there is a little wiggle room in where the boot hits the ankle. They smell amazing. The quality is like nothing I've ever known. I'll have these forever.

I am absolutely loving these boots. The fit is perfect and so comfortable and the style is amazing. I wasn't sure about the Blackberry color - didn't want it to be too red or too purple but oh, my, gosh, they are the coolest boots I own at the moment - and that is saying a lot. I am at the point where I need to buy different colors than the standard brown/black, etc. because I have so many and I want something unique. But that can backfire and you can end up with something weirdly colored. Not with these boots! They are so unique yet neutral at the same time. You can dress them up or down and wear them with any color. They're that versatile! LOVE THEM!!!

Such lovely boots but so uncomfortable because of the narrow toe box. I wish this boot came in a wider toe box! I sent them back

I purchased these boots and they are so cute. I wear a true 8 and they are spot on. The yellow is like a mustered color and they will literally go with anything. I'm so glad I took a chance on the color.

Why don’t they carry larger sizes?!?! It’s bad enough that shoes are gendered, then to tell women that they need to have smaller feet than men… These boots run small, I’m already an 11 1/2 sometimes a size 12… For me personally these boots need to come in a size 13 or I can’t give you my money. I bought them in an 11 had them stretched out to the max. they are my only pair of boots… Uncomfortable and tight, but at least I found something not ugly in my size.

A little snug at first but in 15-20 minutes a very comfortable fitting boot. Much more so than a couple of other Frye booties that I own. Will be wearing these a lot!! And love, love, love the distressed leather. My new favs.

I've gotten lots of compliments. Size wise I got the largest on my spectrum (I vary depending on the shoes from 8.5 -10). I wanted to make sure it was not too tight. Fits perfectly!

I'm a size 6 1/2 with most shoes. After researching the reviews on this Billy short boot, I ordered that size. They seem like a good fit. My toes are not crush, and my heel lifts a bit when I walk.. But the whole boot feels awfully tight. So I went to dillars and tried on a size 7. That size felt better but my foot moved around way to much. After reading tons of articles on proper western boot fittings. I decided to keep my 6 1/2. since they all say the boot should fit like a glove. And made the decision to take them to a shoe cobbler to have them broke in or stretched out a bit. I'm looking forward to picking them up next Saturday. I will try and give an update.

I purchased this boot 1 day ago, Nov 26, and I am able to wear them right out of the box...the fit is a true size 9 and I had no problem getting them on as so many others have claimed that they had to struggle to get them on. The boot hugs my heal and the toe is roomy with out being sloppy. My first pair of Frye boots will not be my last, love these boots!

I love the way these luck! The leather is rich and has a time-worn feel. I always order in nine, but got a 9 1/2.

LOVE these boots! They are my absolute favorite go to boots by Frye. I thought they were discontinuing the style so I was thrilled when I found them again. Gold leather is distressed and not too glitzy while the toe box is darker. These look great with jeans as well as dresses. Had a slight problem with first pair that arrived. Left boot was noticeably more narrow than Rt boot so they were exchanged for another pair which were perfect!

Hard to put on at first but after breaking them in. Few times they are a great western bootie. I wear them with anything, shorts, jeans. But they are definitely western if that's the look you are going for. Great bootie from Frye!

Really gorgeous boots. The color shown is not quite true to the depth of the finish. It is really a smoky greyish taupe that is deeper in tone than shows here. It goes with both brown tones and black/blue clothes. Very versatile. I took the advice I read here and got a half size up. Glad I did.

I am a true 7.5 and I cannot get my foot to fit into the boot. Going to go up 1 size and see if that helps. The boot is beautiful but my foot will not go in at all.

The boots are amazingly cute!
I have a narrow, low volume foot, and these shoes fit me better than most. They are still a bit roomy in my usual size 9. I have added an insole and will wear thicker socks to take up some volume. I have a normal/high arch, and have no issues with getting the boot on/off. The boots have nice arch support.
