Customer Reviews Frye Melissa Button

I recently bought a second pair of Melissa button boots because I was so happy with my first pair. They go with everything! The more I wear them the more comfortable they are. Just wish they had a little traction on the bottom for wet slippery days.

Bought this boot in Smoke size 8, normally wear 8 in Frye boots. It was too big, especially in the heel. Reordered in 7.5 and the heel was much better, but too tight in the toe. Sadly will be returning the second pair.

These are great boots. And the red (burgundy) color is perfect. I'd been looking for red boots and have never been able to find the right red until now. They are very comfortable and pretty true to size. (I'm 7.5 and ordered 7.5.) There is a bit of heel slip (but not as bad as a different Frye boot I have) which is why I gave them 4 stars instead of 5.

I love Frye boots; I have three pairs! The quality is superb, and I really like buying American made. (I wish Frye had a larger variety of such products.) I purchased these boots in my regular 6.5, but they were too large and I had to return them.

I purchased these in black after exchanging two different sized Frye boots. (Top notch customer service by the way) I found the Melissa Button after searching for an alternate and was a hit immediately with me with it's simple classic design! I opted for 1/2 size larger than my norm after going back and forth with another Frye boot that I was not crazy about. These do need a breaking in period, for me anyway. I love that they are pull on - and hoping they become like an "old shoe" soon, but also love the "non-slouchy' look. Perfect with leggings, dresses etc. The length of the shaft is I believe 17 inches which was perfect for my 5' 3" is frame and it sits just below my knee. They do rub against my achilles and hope that that will settle after a few wears. This rubbing is the only reason I gave it 4 out of 5 stars, it could also be the 1/2 size larger than norm.

They look cool, and are comfortable enough to wear all day. I do wish they came in widths, but this will do.

I AM SO HAPPY WITH MY melissa buttons boots. They are comfortable and the color is perfect!

I would like to start by saying Iam a very frequent online shopper and I have never written a review on anything before but felt compelled to about these boots!I had been eyeing the Melissa button boot for quite a while and just didn't have the heart to pay the steep price tag for them! My husband decided to go to a boutique near our home that sells Frye and surprised me for our anniversary, needless to say I couldn't get the box open fast enough. After about 30 minutes of sweating& struggling I finally got the first boot on........which I then realized my very true 7.5 needed a 7 in these, I then attempted to put on boot #2 which never happened! I was devastated! I then went online and was baffled but after reading many reviews I realized I was not alone, I then decided to return the boots to our local store and go ahead and ordered the "wide" melissa buttons which I received yesterday and boom then slid on just like a normal pair of boots! I would also like to add that I have now measured my calf at its largest point and it is 13" and I have never needed a wide calf in any boot! I will be excitedly wearing them today......I ordered the cognac and they are beautiful! Hoping hubby surprises me with a second pair soon!

Bought this a couple weeks ago and wearing them constantly. So comfortable and great looking

Love them totally.... color is not quite the same in each single boot, but that is fine... they are comfy, a little bit bigger.

I bought this boot in the whiskey color and it's beautiful. I wanted unique and I definitely got it...won't find another like it. Very comfortable and I love the style. I would've put five stars but there was a couple of places on the boot where the harness strap must've gotten stuck on the new paint and then ripped loose because there are definite lines in front and on back where it's just plain rough leather with no polish or paint see photos. I just had to keep them anyway because other than that discrepancy I love love love them! My third pair of Frye footwear and I just keep coming back!

I have wanted these boots for some time since I have the Harness Boots and they are the most comfortable boots I have ever worn. The Melissa Boots with zipper up the back are as comfortable as my Harness Boots but I am a little dissapointed that the buttons keep unbuttoning so am able to give them only 4 stars.

These boots were beautiful! I wish they fit me. They were perfect in the length & width of the toes, however the heel was huge and my foot slipped right out. I do have slim heels though. I had to send them back.

Glad I got the short (8 in) boots because the shafts were surprisingly soft and flexible- and taller ones might be pretty floppy. I sized down half a size from my usual size because I know this harness style runs slightly big. These seem somewhat large in the ankle/heel area and are narrow in the toe/ball of the foot area. But from personal experience with my other Frye harness' they will stretch in the tight areas without much effort or time...I think the suede is something unique and more unusual than the smooth leather that has been around for decades. I think I will be wearing these alot with skinny's, leggings & dresses.

These boots are stunning. Just what I was looking for... quality leather, no buckles or unnecessary hardware. I knocked off a star because the right boot is a little larger in the shaft and width of foot. It's very obvious as I walk, and truthfully, it REALLY annoys me. This is the only time I've ever owned a pair of boots where one shaft felt nice and tight and the other felt like it was flapping around on my leg. They stay nice and upright, so it is what it is I guess. Oh well, they're still beautiful boots.
