Customer Reviews Frye Carson Ballet

I wrote a review yesterday after these shoes arrived and I feel it necessary to add to that after wearing them last night. I felt like I was walking in plastic shoes...no give and they look cheap compared to my old pair of this same shoe. Definitely NOT the same quality...now not worth the money.

I had a lot of trouble with this shoe. It looks so cute, but the sizing is weird. I usually wear a 9, but it was too short. I then ordered a 9.5, but it was too big! My feet are on the narrow side, and these are cut wide, so perhaps they don't fit well on narrow feet. Anyway, I had to return both.

I am EXTREMELY disappointed in this shoe and I am a huge Frye fan. I wear a 6.5-7 typically so I ordered a 7 in this shoe. They were beautiful and seemed of good quality, but so tight and they hurt so bad I exchanged it for a 7.5. I didn't want to risk that they wouldn't stretch. The 7.5 came and its like a completely different shoe!! The leather is a different color, has weird wrinkles and feels much much cheaper. It didn't form to my foot at all, it's just a wrinkled mess at the top. I have no idea what's going on with these but unfortunately they are going back and I'll think twice about ordering their flats in the future.

Terrible - do not last. I purchased these shoes and for the first month I absolutely loved how they looked and was pleased that they stretched out a little. Alas, things went down hill from there. After that first month they continued to stretch out and wear down. After 2.5 months they look like they are old and they are so stretched out I can barely wear them. Am surprised by this lack of quality from a pair of shoes made by Frye.

This is the second pair of Frye Carson flats that I have purchased from Zappos. The first pair I got were perfect. The leather was beautiful, they were great quality, and really well made. I am not sure what happened with the second pair, but there was a significant drop in quality. The leather is really thin and flimsy and they look cheap. They also are not as comfortable as the original pair. They already look worn down after a few months. I would not recommend getting these if you are looking for a good quality pair of leather flats.

I normally wear an 8.5 or 9M in shoes. I ordered an 8.5 and found them a bit snug and toe box short, so I returned for a 9. The 9 actually fit smaller than the 8.5. Sizing is too inconsistent! These too must go back.

These are terrible -- they look bad, fit poorly (like a low-cut plastic bag hanging around your foot), and are priced way too high for the quality.

Overpriced considering shoe. Surprised by this considering it was a Frye shoe. Very slippery sole. Do not wear anymore because of this. A real waste.

This is a wonderful comfortable flat shoe until you get caught in the rain wearing it. I have a tan colored pair, and it is basically ruined after I was caught in a storm. Water dries dark on the leather leaving marks that are impossible to get rid of - I tried washing, lightly scrubbing, applying cream, etc. I used to wear these daily with everything, and now I am very sad, because they are unwearable. For genuine leather shoes this expensive I am very disappointed.

I was so excited to receive these shoes, and so very disappointed as soon as I put them on. They are very uncomfortable. Too bad. They come in so many awesome colors!nim sending them back.
