I have three pairs of these booties. I took the first pair away for a weekend, untried. ( I forgot the rule about not wearing new shoes in this sort of situation) However I need not have worried. These boots were absolutely and totally comfortable right out of the box, and I wore them all day long for almost three straight days. These boots are so good looking, I got a kick out of them, (no pun intended) every time I looked down at my feet. They made my feet look at least two sizes smaller than they are, and are so totally feminine and classy, and at the same time are quite edgy and oh so chic. I am so delighted with them, as soon as I got home I ordered two more pairs. Enough said, buy them.

This is my second pair of these booties. They are amazing! They do stretch out when worn in, so it's best to get your true size. These are a great, versatile bootie that can be worn with just about anything. You won't regret having a pair of them!

These booties are the softest leather that, I'm sure, I've ever felt. I love them! They do feel like you could stand to size down - at least - a half size. I wish, now, that I'd done so, but still lovely and comfy. They just have some sliding room - even with socks. I have flat feet and these provide comfortable support to my arches, or lack thereof.

It seems Frye is now made in China. Compared to several other pairs of Frye boots I have, these are certainly not made with even close to the same quality. Without a doubt returning!

These fit true to size. Very comfortable especially for a pointy toe. Heel height is perfect, not too high. Love beautiful Frye leather! These look great with skinny jeans.

Love, love, love these boots. I also own a pair of suede booties with a wrapped heel so these are a nice, more casual alternative. BUT! Can easily be dressed up. These are really comfortable, but not great for standing around all day. Well made, beautiful boots that fit true to size. Absolutely no complaints.

This is my first review for Zappos after many purchases. I wanted to review this item because I was concerned about the heel height (I don't wear heels often) and overall fit given the pointy toe, and thought others might be, too. I was totally relieved on both counts. I am on the smaller size of size 6 usually (occasionally need a 5.5) and these fit great in size 6 without pushing my toe into the very point of the shoe. My heel moves around a bit, but I understand this is normal for well-made boots. If you are hesitating at all because of the heel, don't -- it feels totally stable and not at all like you are wearing an almost 3" heel. Wore them walking around NYC with no issues so far. They look great with jeans or with tights and a skirt. Overall, I am thrilled with these.

I loved the look of these booties and the feel of the leather, but the sizing didn't seem to work for me. I also had concerns with the heel quality as stated in some of the other reviews (the heel is leather-wrapped "synthetic material" which means plastic), so that's ultimately why I didn't try to make one of the sizes "just work". I purchased the Ash color and the leather upper is beautiful (a cross between gray and a warm taupe) and feels buttery soft. BUT...I'm between a 8 and 8.5, so I ordered my usual size 8.5 in boots and my toes were pinched. I returned and ordered the 9 (thanks to the awesome return policy and quick shipping offered by Zappos!) but those felt a little too roomy or wide in the rest of the foot overall. I tried thicker socks but just didn't feel as comfortable in these as I do in some of my other Frye boots. I will be returning these but I've already ordered another pair of booties in a different style (from Zappos, of course!) so hopefully those will work!

I purchased the brown nubuck.
The suede is soft and of good quality.
I normally wear 8.5m in Fryes. However, I went up 1/2 size as recommended by some reviewer(s). The boots are huge in the heel area. They kept slipping off my feet.The length was right. So, I don't think going down to my regular Frye size will stop the heel slippage.
Also, these shoes are much pointier than they look in the picture.

These boots are absolutely beautiful. I love the quality of the leather and heel height is perfect. Great with jeans and dresses. They are worth every penny. So classy and stylish. I'm so glad I purchased them

Love these boots! They may run a little big... I'm normally a 7.5 but got the 8 and it fits well. I think this is because the toe is quite pointed and I have a fairly wide toe-box so needed that little extra room. Width was true to size.
The leather is soft. The boot hits at a flattering spot on the ankle, avoiding the "cankle" look (yay!)
I wore them with a dress but think they will be equally nice with boot cut or rolled up skinny jeans.
My only suggestion: They could use a little more cushion in the footbed - but hey! - they aren't a sneaker so this was not expected.

These fit me well and were super comfortable. I wore the black ones to work the first time all day and had no trouble, the arch support was perfect. I have kankles and had no trouble, the opening was wide enough for me. I went into this knowing that the heel is only covered, so am not bothered by that, they are cute and I got a ton of compliments. I bought them in the cognac when I got home I loved them so much!

These are extremely comfortable boots with a western vibe. Suffice it to say I have 4 pairs.

Beautiful booties with a western flair! I was expecting them to be a bit more red based on the pic, but they are a true cognac color.

The item was scuffed and appears to have been worn. I liked them enough to try for a return on a new pair.

I normally wear 9.5 or 10 and I got 10. I could have worn the size 9.5 easily- I got the taupe and like the color- very comfortable- since I got the bigger size I need thicker socks with these- I love these as you can wear with shorts or denim or dresses- super versatile and I get lots of compliments-

This is an UPDATE on my previous review: I returned the size 9.5 Reina Black Cut Stonewash Bootie and ordered a size 10. I had stated my dislike of the extremely heavy distressing on the 9.5 and my intention to polish the size 10 to make the distressing more subtle. I just received the 10s and they are gorgeous! Exactly like the photo this time! My advice to those who receive the extreme version: return them and order another pair. On my return request, I stated my objection to the heavy-handed distressing. I have no idea if someone actually read that, and hand-selected a pair for me, or if it was just the luck of the draw ... whatever - I absolutely love my new Frye Reinas!

These are the best! They are the bomb! I have double digit pairs of cowboy boots, however, these being more like a boot with a heel, they are easier on my feet and back after a few hours of wear. I went 1/2 size larger as I do have morton's neuroma in left foot (irritated nerve). Not for that I would have said, "true to size!".

Well-built, as are all Frye boots but I am returning because the color is not what I expected. Looks to be a lighter gray on-line and in person it appears darker (almost purplish). Cute boot though. I bought them in burgundy instead and that color I love!! I am normally a size 9 but these run big, so I got the 8.5 and they are perfect. Frye in general runs big. All of my Frye boots are an 8.5.
