My first Frye boot and won't be my last! LOVE this boot - purchased in the burnt red - so cute with jeans or cords. Bought my usual size 6.5 and it was perfect. Beautiful and comfortable right out of the box. Constant compliments and questions when I wear this boot - now my only decision is which boot to get next? Great value for what you are getting - Looking at the Melissa Tall Button and the Harness - will be back for more and adding Frye boots to my Christmas wish list for the hubby

I have never been disappointed with Frye boots and these are no exception. They were comfortable from day one. I got them on a Monday and wore them on a long trip the very next day. No breaking in time needed. I am seriously considering another pair. They look great with boot cut pants that are not intended to be tucked into the boot.

These boots are fantastic! Got the dark antique brown, which are more of a med. brown with the distressed leather. I have a narrow foot, 8.5 or 9. Went with a 9 and fit is great with thick or medium socks and a slim cushy insole. I have thin ankles and the opening is perfect, room for skinny jeans. If you don't use an insole and are between sizes, I would say get your smallest size unless your feet are wide. Thanks for the sale, Zappos! Great deal.

She thought Slate would be like charcoal grey and it is not. It is a dark whiskey brown, so she needs to look again. Thank you

I am behind the curve because I just ordered these boots. They are beautiful. I think I will really enjoy them. Very good quality, slightly snug but usually boots are when new. I got the antique brown color and I think they'll go with everything. Frye says American boots, but they are made in Mexico FYI.

Loved the look and style of these boots.The burgundy color is absolutely gorgeous. The leather is soft and plyable and they are very well made. It was difficult for me to send them back after falling in love with how they looked. The fit is true to size but there was an area where the boot and my ankle had a disagreement. The leather turned in ever so slightly at the seam of the ankle. The rub in that area hurt my ankle. Although there was plenty of room in the ankle area, it was how they folded in. Someone whose ankles are not swollen and tender would never notice this, but unfortunately my ankles are affected by rheumatoid arthritis and they were not comfortable for my unique ankles. Frye boots are the best, so I kept trying different boots on until the perfect bootie was found! The staff at the Chicago store were so helpful, knowledgeable and patient in this process!

I just received these in Slate and I love the color. I'd say they're more of a dark chocolate brown which is what I wanted and not a dark gray. The fit a little snug but I know they'll loosen up as I wear them. Also, the size runs just a little big. I'm a 7 1/2 to 8 depending on the shoe and I got the 7 1/2. I have an inch of wiggle room with these boots, which is fine for me. Very beautiful boot! Very happy!

Just received my Melissa shorties in Slate - thought they'd be a lot more gray but they are dark brown. Not a good name for this color. I really wanted a dark rustic gray color so the Ice color is not for me but I'm keeping them anyway. Wearing them around the house before I head out but so far so good. Had a gorgeous pair of Frye boots years ago, the tall camel colored ones with green stitching. So sorry I got rid of them thinking I out-grew them. Would have loved to have them now! These are very well made and sturdy. Being I live in South Florida, it'll be hard getting used to wearing anything but flip flops but I love them!

This is a great color and very comfortable boot although a little loose in the heel area for my average B width foot. However I decided to go with a red boot with a little more heel.

These boots are just yummy! The smell is good, good leather and they are butter soft. I would love to have been able to keep them, but the toe area was just a little narrow and my little toe tend to hurt if it's cramped. Darn! These are perfection. Great color, nice height.

My first pair of Frye boots!! The Melissa Button Short was the one for me. Other Frye styles didn't fit me. The side zipper makes the difference for easy off and on. I think I have tried on every style and brand of boots out there & these boots were the ones, can use my custom orthotic in them with no problems.. Comfortable, right out of the box.

I'm so glad I purchased these boots! I only wish I bought the taller version as well, and now I kinda want the short black ones too. These boots fit true to size and were immediately comfy right out of the box. No breaking in needed! I'm usually a 6.5 (sometimes 7 in flats or sneakers), but I found these boots were perfect in 6.5. Oddly enough the veronica slouch didn't fit me as comfortably, probably needs more breaking in. But as a result I don't wear them as often. But these Melissa button ones? Love. I even brought them on my business trip to Tokyo and they're perfect for all the walking I'm doing here. Buy these! You won't regret it.

I love the look, comfort and style. They are perfect with jeans for when we are visiting out west and for every day in Indiana with jeans. I haven't worn them with leggings but looking forward to trying it. Thank you Frye!

Exactly what I have been looking for I love these boots! I like the look of a riding boot but I am not a fan of skinny jeans or leggings I prefer the boyfriend Jean look which usually does not work well with riding boots. These have that riding boot look but are ankle boots so I can wear my rolled boyfriend jeans and rock these at the same time. They were comfortable right out of the box. I am a solid 6.5 shoe but have always been a 6 in Fryes (I own 5 pairs) and these were no exception. I definitely will be going back for the antique slate & maybe the black too. Thank you Zappos for always providing quality products & fast shipping!

Bought these a month ago, wear them several times a week. They are super cute, comfortable, and I get tons of compliments on them. I'd like them in brown too! Wore them all day at work the first day I got them and my feet didn't hurt at all at the end of the day. Love them!

So great my mom kept both colors I purchased for her. They run true to size and are very comfortable boots. Beautiful leather detail. Can be dressy or casual. The cut of the top of the boot is very flattering for all leg types, doesn't make them look bulky or make your legs appear to be short and stumpy. Awesome boots. The only thing I didn't like was the slick bottoms. I almost wiped out so many times but it's $30 to have a better sole put on them from a shoe place. Overall worth your purchase. Will last years to come as with all my frye purchases! Just pay attention to where they're made! I've had good luck with made in Mexico. I try to steer clear of made in china I don't pay the big bucks for that!

Love these boots. Bought them in Cognac. The color is so classic and classy. They fit true to size and just get softer and more formed to your feet every time you wear them. Need them in black too!
