Customer Reviews Frye Melissa Button

Really love these boots. They are very comfortable and so versatile. I think Frye boots in general run a little big, so I ordered 1/2 size smaller than my normal size. They fit perfectly.

Absolutely beautiful! They are so soft, and are extremely comfortable! Very well made. They do run slightly bigger, I usually wear an 8 to 8.5 depending on the shoe, but always were 8.5 with shoes that require socks. These fit great in an 8.

I had been wanting these boots for the longest time and finally got them. Simply love them! Very comfortable.

I bought the Melissa Button boots in light brown brush-off leather. The boots were a little lighter than pictured, but that didn't bother me. I used Frye's waterproof dressing/balm, and the leather darkened very nicely - but just a little bit. I used the foot measuring scale provided by Zappos to determine my size, and I found the boots true to size. They are not so hard to pull on, but they are a bit difficult/awkward to pull off (not poised at all). It doesn't bother me, though. So far I'm really happy with the boots - they look great and the leather smell is just wonderful. I'm picky about boots, and this is the only pair I've kept besides my Camper riding boots.

These boots work well for my 13" calves. There is a gap but it is not huge like with most other boots and they are pretty comfortable. I got the dark brown brush off and they were definitely lighter than the picture online so be aware of that if you are looking for a darker brown boot. But I am keeping them as they are sort of a brown grey and match everything, ended up liking the color more.

These truly are the best boots and worth every penny. I read reviews that noted how difficult they are to get on and off at first and yes, full sweat, two person job. But then they soften and it becomes less of a workout. They are well-made and beautiful. I also noticed comments on calf width - not sure if this helps others but I have normal calf size and the boots fit fine. I am about 5' 5" and 115 lbs.

I ordered these for my wife as a gift and she has been extremely pleased with the purchase. One note, she was concerned that they were a bit small but once she broke them in, the boots were true to size.

I wanted to splurge and order a pair of tall Frye boots for my birthday, but I tried 3 pairs before finding one that worked. I am 5'2" and have pretty tiny legs, so it was a pretty sad experience for me until I found the Frye Melissa Button. (Lucky for me, Zappos is insanely helpful with exchanges!) These boots are still pretty tall on me, but the curved front and back buy me a little room to bend my legs. They are also a little too roomy at the top, but again, the shape of the boot is very forgiving and mostly hides that. I ordered the fawn color because it's pretty close to neutral but still very unique. It is gorgeous in person and super versatile. I wouldn't consider this an everyday shoe for me because it is so much boot for my size, but they are so beautiful I can live with that. On days when I do need a lot of boot, these babies are perfect!

This will be my first review ever but I thought it was worth writing. I LOVE these boots. I have been thinking about buying a pair of Frye boots for years and finally I got these for my birthday on Christmas Day! I love love love them. I have not taken them off since I got them. they are so comfortable. I was torn between these and the Carmen harness but when I saw these I fell in love. I can't say enough about them. I have a small, narrow foot and the size is pretty true for me. I can't imagine that they may be comfortable for someone with wide calves or a wide foot though. Now I am going to have to buy the Carmen too. Frye is just worth the money. And I have to say that buying from Zappos is the easiest and the best.

Did I just read someone say they had their boots resoled with rubber? Oh my gosh! Anyhow, I love my Frye Boots! I got my first pair way back in the 70's! They are well worth the money! They wear like iron, and look great!

Love these boots! I wear them almost every day! They are the most comfortable pair that I own. I love wearing them, and I love that I receive compliments on them every time I do!

I love my Frye boots. Once I discovered these, I thought I could find something else I like for cheaper. But I couldn't. I finally bit the bullet and bought them and I sure am happy I did. They are surprisingly comfortable and super stylish. I can wear them with anything. I ordered a half size smaller than I usually wear, but if you plan on wearing thick socks, you could maybe stay your normal size. Zappos customer service can't be beat, and I'm so glad I purchased my Frye boots here.

I just received my boots, fast delivery as always! I ordered light brown brush off leather, they are much lighter in person than in the photo but I still love them! I am usually a 7 - 7½ in shoes and ordered the 7½. They fit great with thicker socks with thin socks I could have gotten a 7. Overall I am very happy with these boots and recommend them!

These boots are amazing! As soon as the box arrived, I could smell the leather! This is actually my 2nd winter with these. I bought the dark brown brush off and I love them. I get compliments every single time I wear them. I wear them almost daily in the winter and weekly in summer. They easily go with a dress or jeans and add a cool factor to any outfit. This year I got the Melissa button in black (I prefer to get the brush off leather and wear them out myself). I normally wear a 7 1/2, but can wear a 7, so I ordered these in a 7. They were tight at first but I love how they have conformed to my foot now. I think if you are willing to put the time into breaking them in, order a 1/2 size small, but I got the black in 7 1/2 and they fit right out of the box, I just have a little extra wiggle room in them now. These boots are worth the money. Go for it.

These are absolutely the best boots I've ever seen. They are beautiful, the quality is impeccable, the craftsmanship is perfect, and they are super comfortable, even when I am on my feet all day! If I could, I would get them in every color.

THIS IS THE BEST BOOT! I have been debating for years on trying Frye boots and finally for Christmas this year my husband bought them for me and I have never been happier! The Melissa Button Boot is fabulous! I have the cognac, a great brown riding boot. I bought them in a 7.5 which is my regular size, the are a bit tight around my calves the first time I put them on by stretched (not in a bad way) the first wear and now they are so comfy. I am a Frye boot addict now! buy them!

These Boots are awesome but they run SMALL!! With no zipper to assist on putting them on, they are very tight and hard to get your foot into. Order a half size larger.

Loved this boot but it is a narrow shafted boot and narrower in the toe box. Great for those folks built like this but unfortunately I had to return. I will try another style. Love Frye!

I love this boot - this is my first pair of Frye boots. My calves are thin and these boots fit me. I can still wear them with skinny jeans too. Dressy enough for work with a skirt and tights. Leather is beautiful, not too stiff and the boots are comfortable. Love them - first but will not be my last.

I love these boots. After years of buying cheaper boots that would fall apart quickly, I splurged and it was definitely worth it. They are chic, beautifully crafted and I get compliments on them all the time. I have athletic calves and they still fit comfortably, although are not "roomy" per se. They did take some tugging to get on the first few wears but after that have softened up a bit and are now easy to pull on. I find them very comfortable and routinely wear them for shopping and airport travel.

Love these boots! The leather is gorgeous and the fits is perfect. It is a little difficult to get the foot in at the ankle but once inside they are very comfortable.

Gorgeous boots. I'm super picky with boots and I'm also really short (4'10) so I have to get boots that are slim-fitting enough to not make me look like I'm just swimming in them. In high school/college I went the trendy route and bought boots every fall/winter season with studs, ruffles, laces, buckles - you name the embellishment, I probably had 'em. Now that I'm 25 and working, I find that in general I spend less time and money buying cheap trendy clothing/accessories and would rather shell out the big bucks for things that will last me a long time. I seriously had been lusting after these Melissa Buttons for going on 3 years at least - come every September, I'd find myself Google Image-ing pictures of these boots and reading up on reviews, dreaming of the day I'd finally be able to get myself a pair. Well, now that I work full-time I thought, this is the year! True enough, these boots are everything I've read and dreamed about them to be. I ordered the brown antique leather, and the craftsmanship is just unparalleled. I've owned lots of boots over the years, and these by far blow them all out of the water, even my more expensive-ish ones that were real leather as well (ranging from about $150-250). They are a little tight initially to get on, but after a couple wears they mold to your feet and I never want to take 'em off - and that says a lot about me because my most ideal footwear is no footwear at all! I've gotten so many compliments on them and they just make me feel amazing when I wear them. They're also so versatile - classic styling of course is to wear them with skinny jeans, but I've also worn them with shorts, skirts, and dresses, because they are just that amazing! Paying for them hurt, but trust me, my regret over the price didn't last long. In my opinion, it's better to invest in a classic pair of boots that will service you well over many years than buy cheapie ones that will only last 1 or 2 seasons at best. Get them, I promise you won't regret it.

These boots are awesome. You won't regret buying. I bought the Melissa Button Backzip but returned for these and liked them much better.
