Had a problem with my first pair (defect in leather that became apparent after first wearing) - but customer service was great. Sent a new pair to me via overnight, as I was leaving on a long vacation in a few days, and I really wanted to take my new boots! Spent two weeks in Europe wearing these almost every day walking for miles each day. Took a couple of days to break in, but no problem with blisters or anything uncomfortable. Overall, I would say these boots are a little narrow - I have a fairly narrow foot, and even for me, they feel narrow at the toe. Wonder if I ordered a half-size up if that would have helped...but I think they would have been too long. Love the rubber inset on the leather sole, which is wearing like iron (strong rubber...not wearing out quickly).

Boots are a bit darker than they appeared in the picture, but that just depends on the lighting. Otherwise they are a great pair of boots. I have been wearing them for about a week and haven't had any problems.

I'm a woman and I was searching for a good pair of Fryes for a long time. My feet are pretty wide, so most of the women's styles were too narrow for me. I think the Tyler is a perfect unisex style - simple and elegant. Comfortable right out of the box. I can wear them with skirts or jeans, and they look super stylish on me - I've gotten tons of compliments and nobody assumed that they were mens's.

It's a good boot. Simple, but still distinctive from most other boots men wear nowadays. Would recommend.

Once you get them on, which requires some pretty decent core strength, you'll not want to take them off. Very comfortable boots, and you can feel he quality.

I had a Zappos gift card, but I tried several boots on at the Frye store prior to my Zappos purchase. These were the perfect blend - relaxed and cool enough to wear with jeans, but nice enough to wear with pants for work. I also liked that they have a leather sole with a small tread. Enough tread to prevent slipping in snow or ice, but not heavy looking like the Frye lug boots. The other Frye boots I tried on were a 9, but I could only fit into a 9.5 in these. 9.5 is my true size so the others appear to run large.

Great comfortable boot. Narrow D width works. anything wider and you might not like it. Runs a little long. I wear an 11 in most sneakers. I ordered 10.5 I might even been able to squeak in a 10, but after a night out 10.5 feels fine. Definitely want to treat them. Seems to have no DWR out of the box...

They look very nice and they're very well made, but they're not getting any more comfortable with wear. It makes me sad, I was very excited about my new boots, but they're too uncomfortable to wear.

Just ordered these boots, and they are awesome! If you want a vintage, distressed look, these are the boots for you. They look as if you've had them for years, broken them in, and they have become a part of your personality. May need to wear them once or twice to actually break them in. Take the time to do it. I usually wear an 11, but bought 10 1/2 and they're perfect. Suggest going half size smaller. Seriously, a great buy!

These are nice looking boots. Pretty comfortable. I returned due to the fact that they are hard to put on/pull off due to the lacing. I opted for the Bowery Lace-up that includes a side zipper.......much better.

The boot runs very small. My first impression was that I’d have to return them as they seemed extremely narrow. It does not help that they are leathered lined, so getting them on or off is not that easy- and I do not have a large foot at 9 1/2. I used a shoe stretcher because I really liked the style and it worked. Now, I would call the fit snug, but comfortable. I ride a motorcycle and wanted something sturdy enough to ride in and these fit the bill. I would not recommend these for long periods of walking or standing, however. They have held up very well after some time, but be aware they are very distressed out of the box. I don’t think the photos represent this very well. Not a concern for me, but could be if you are expecting a slightly worn look. Overall, I think it’s a good boot, but pricey. Do not even consider these if your feet are even remotely wide.

I own several pairs of Frye boots, and I am always impressed by their quality. They are pricey, to be sure. But, they offer more styles than Red Wing or any other comparable brand. However, there are two things you should be aware of before purchasing these boots. They are VERY NARROW. Straight out of the box they looked very small. After trying them on, they felt as if they were actually narrow width. But, they only come in medium, so that was not the case. Length is true to size, but I could barely get my foot into them with a regular sock. After reading other reviews regarding the width, I decided to stretch them out slightly. Now, they are comfortable with the thinnest socks I own. I'm hoping they will give a little more over time. If you have even the slightest amount of 'girth' to your feet, I would stay away from these. Also, I like that these boots have a pre-worn appearance. I wouldn't call it distressed because they look very worn. I like that. But, I think they are much more distressed than they appear on the website. It is not just a slight patina, but a heavily worn look all over. You might want to think about that before shelling out nearly $350. That being said, I love them. But, I have slightly narrow feet, and these almost went back because they were too small.

I bought the Tyler Lace Up Boot after trying them on. I loved the look/style of them. They were a bit tight width-wise, but I thought they would break in after wearing them a few times. After having them a few months, they have not really changed and they hurt my feet when I wear them. It is definitely a testament to the quality of the boot if my big flat feet don't break them in, but if you have a wider foot then I would definitely make sure they are comfortable the first time you put them on.

This is a great looking boot with a bit of vintage feel. The leather is extremely soft and a beautiful brown shade of brown. They run narrow and I ordered a half size down, which fit well. I hated to do it, but ultimately returned them for something with a Goodyear Welted sole.

These boots really ran the length size indicated; however, they are really narrow. Frye should definitely offer a selection in broader widths!

Great pair of boots! They've held up well and look very stylish. The heels have worn a bit uneven (more worn on the outside of the heel), which is probably more of a problem with my pattern of walking than the shoe. But I imagine I'll probably have to get them resoled in about a year.

Great boot. Leather is very soft right out of the box. The fit is a little tight for the first couple wears, especially across the bridge of the foot. After break in, they feel like old friends.

I love the look of these boots. The leather is great. I do think they run long. I went a half size down. I probably could of went a full size down. But they were a little stiff in the begining. But after 3 or 4 times out they have broken in and feel as if I could of went a full size smaller. But they do look great. They are dressy enough that I wear them with jeans to work.

The color for the cognac leather isn't as light as the photo depicts. It almost seems as if they are closer to a solid brown, bummed they weren't close to the picture. I did get two pairs - wasn't sure which size would fit - so I don't think the color discrepancy was a mistake.

I waiting many months to purchase this boot, anticipation was killing me so I pulled the trigger- leather quality is top notch, but they are hard to put on unless you completely remove the laces part way down, also once on the fit is larger than anticipated with heel slippage, little disappointing

Trust the other reviews, this shoe is extremely narrow. I am a thin guy with normal feet and my feet were spilling over the soles. Not a very comfortable shoe, but I'm sure they would have given way over time. The style seemed a bit "dainty" for my liking. This shoe is made in Mexico and the craftsmanship didn't strike me as warranting a $300 pricetag. Exchanged them for the Prison Boot which is made in the USA.

Shouldn't a pair of pricey boots be comfortable?? It seems these days (or maybe always) to wear "fashionable" things you pay a premium and get nothing in terms of comfort and these boots are no exception. I've been wearing these now on and off for a month, i assume any break in has already happened, and they are still not very comfortable at all. I have very narrow feet, i always need to find brands in footwear that are better suited to narrow feet, and these feel extremely tight around the sides. These are rated a D medium width but I don t think that is accurate. Very narrow. Aside from sizing issues and lack of comfort I do like the way these boots look. I was looking for a pair of boots on the casual side that look worn in, I just wish they felt a bit more like what they look like.
