I only wore these a couple of times since purchasing. These run pretty much true to shoe size, maybe just a tad larger. Not an issue for me since I only wear boots in the winter and a thick sock will make these fit perfect. This is a good looking boot. Have to say that I didn't need to even brake them in, these fit just right. The leather is very soft for the thickness. Overall very pleased so far with the purchase. I think that with proper care these boots will last me for years.

I sooo wanted to love this boot. I have recently ordered, and unfortunately sent back, several different pairs of Frye boots. This particular boot looks fantastic, made in American and has all of the qualities that I was looking for: lug sole, leather heel, style etc. However the inside of this boot, like the others I have tried lately are just not comfortable. The foot bed is uneven, lumpy in spots. The heel area inside literally has bumps and you can feel the holes where I guess the nail heads are under the liner, just not smooth and comfortable like it should be for a $300 boot. Frye, do you test your products??? Doesn't seem like it to me. The consistency is just not there. The quality of leather is great, the styles are fantastic but the comfort level is missing. Which makes me sad because I so want a pair of Frye boots. I do have some Frye wingtips that I like but it took me several pairs of shoes to find a comfortable set. Come on Frye, where is the comfort?

After reading the reviews on these Frye boots I did order a 1/2 size down, I am normally a 10 1/2, ordered a 10 and they fit perfectly. The boots are really well made, typical of a Frye product. I would highly recommend these boots, they are expensive but I have two other pairs of Frye's and they have lasted years with no issues.

My first pair of Frye boots. I liked the style because they reminded me of Doc Marten's, but dressier. Very comfortable out of the box. Really, no break in needed but I know they'll get even better with age. The one feature that I would like would be loops on the top few eyelets for quicker lace up and removal. Normally, I wear a 13 but decided to go down one size and they fit perfectly.

where them to work and they were comfortable from the start. They also have a great vintage look. Exactly what I was looking for.

I really wanted to like this shoe because its a great looking boot but after trying them on, the heel on one of the boots was not level with the rest of the shoe so it literally wobbled and forced my foot to pronate. I couldnt believe that for the price of these boots that i would have this problem. I returned the boots and looked elsewhere.

Wore them out the box, and put on for a couple of hours chopping wood and running around. And my feet never let me know it was "time", to give it rest. I want one in every color. I like the one and a half inch tall heel height. Feels like I'm walking tall.

These are the perfect pair of boots, they can be worn dressed up or casual. The only downfall to the boot is the laces - I do not like these kind of laces, but other than that they are great.

I love them, but they were WAY too big. I ordered 7.5 women's, must've been about a size 9! Sent back and would love to reorder but I'm unsure what size?

Nice boots. Evenly and accurately stitched throughout. Bought a 1/2 size down and they fit like I'm used to. They are not lined, except for the inside toe box lined with clothe and toe form. But the leather is soft and they break in very quickly, they are very comfortable on the second wearing. The rubber on the soles are hard, they feel and sound like leather healed shoes for the most part. That's really my only gripe, even if just the heel rubber was slightly softer for street/sidewalk walking etc.

I've had the same boot in black for 2 years. When I started looking for a brown boot, I didn't even consider something else. I now have the Arkansas mid lace in brown and black. A great basic boot with timeless style!

I returned the boots since they weren't quite what I was looking for. However, here are a couple of comments that might help others. They run a big large--if I kept them, I would've ordered a half size down. The leather is first class--I'd expect it to hold up well. I'm looking for something a tad more dressy but if you are looking for casual, top-quality boot, this is great.
