Customer Reviews Frye Reina Bootie

I adore these shoes! I'm not a boots kind of girl but I want to wear these with everything. They are a beautiful, soft leather with perfect details. I bought them for my sisters wedding and they are my new favorite shoes for the fall. I have high arches, these boots are comfortable and not at all tight like some shoes. I got them in camel and the color matches the picture to a t. I rubbed them with mink oil to protect and it's worked perfectly. Would recommend these boots to everyone!

Love these booties! I got them in the camel buffed nubuck, and have worn them 3 times since I got them less than a week ago! They look great with cuffed skinny jeans, or dresses/skirts with tights and can be dressed up or down. I ordered a 1/2 size down from my usual size; they are slightly tight in the width of the toe box but I have plenty of space in front of my toes. I anticipate that the leather will stretch because it is so soft. Would highly recommend this versatile little bootie!

So I may have a slight addiction to Frye boots, but they are great quality and worth the money. I was looking for a pair of ankle boots to wear with skinny jeans and thought these might fit the bill. Like them so much that I ordered these in both "Black Cut Stonewash" and "Stone Buffed Nubuck." The nubuck is much, much softer, but I returned because I couldn't see how I would ever keep them looking nice in wet winter weather. I'm keeping the black cut stonewash because they are more of an oiled leather and are already distressed, and I think more damage will only make them look better. A word of warning - the black leather is much stiffer than the nubuck - good in that it helps the boots keep their shape, but the front edge digs into my ankle a little. I'm going to try with black ankle socks, and I'm hoping that they (like most Fryes) will soften with wear. If you want an ankle boot with a short shaft, these are beautiful. I usually take 7.5 or 8 in Frye - in these I needed an 8. Happy shopping!

These are my go to boots! They are comfortable, and stylish! I can walk for miles in these boots! These boots do run a bit large however if you plan on wearing thick socks in the cooler months It's perfect!

Love these boots. Besides being comfortable to wear all day long, they look really good with cropped skinny jeans and I would imagine, with dresses, but have not tried. Highly recommend, especially the camel color. I get compliments every time I wear them! You won't regret!

A great boot, looks great with skinny jeans and as always fits great right out of the box. Frye is about the only boots I buy. Pricy but worth every penny. Love the variety that Zappos has available.

Just an update to an earlier review that I posted on Frye Reina. I bought them in nubuck, and after wearing them for about a month, they did seem to stretch out a bit. Probably because the leather is so soft. I probably would have been better off a half size smaller than my standard size, which is how I usually order my Fryes. Even with the boot a bit big, it still works for me and I'll continue to wear them. Compliments happen every time I wear them.

Love these Frye booties. They fit true to size, but probably run a wee bit narrow and small. I've been using thin socks with them, and the shoe has loosened a bit with wear over the last couple weeks. Goes great with jeans, skirts, dresses, minis, maxis. Awesome light color that's great for warmer weather.

Love these booties! So comfortable from the first wear, felt like an old well worn pair. Frye boots are well made and reliable - one of my favorite brands.

I absolutely adore these boots. I'm not one to wear heels, except on special occasions, but I find the height on these to be very comfortable. The quality is superb. I love the subtle western detail - it works with everything, but still has a unique, quirky touch. Great purchase!

Wonderful bootie. Very comfortable, made with very soft lovely leather. Heel height is good for long walks. Definitely true to size. (Possibly on the larger end of the size you would normally wear). The leather is very soft so it will stretch a bit. Plenty of room in the toe for such a pointy bootie.

I do not often write reviews, but I had to for these boots. I love them... they are so beautiful and go with everything. Not only are they good looking, but they are very comfortable as well. I usually am between 8.5 or 9 in shoes, and based on other reviews, I ordered a 9 in these boots. They are just roomy enough for thick socks, but also work with thinner socks. Great purchase, well worth the money, except now I want them in every color!

This is such a gorgeous shoe, unfortunately they didn't look great with my size 11 feet and skinny ankles so they're going back. This style seems to run slightly smaller than other Frye boots I've tried just because of the pointy toe.

Way too wide!

These boots are awesome. Unfortunately they didn't fit my feet, so I am returning. The shape with the pointed toe and tapered heel is super sexy, leather is still Frye quality (a bit lighter than the photo but still a beautiful cognac color that goes with anything), but the shoe is a lot wider and longer than I expected with a bigger opening that makes it look quite casual. A 1/2 size down from my normal may be too tight given the pointed toe shape, but we will see!

I ordered these in both Black 10 and Black Cut Stonewash 9.5. The 9.5 fit my right foot perfectly; however, the bunion on my left warned me to go to the 10. The Black leather is very soft, lightly pebbled & elegant in look and feel. The color of the heel and sole are MUCH lighter than the photo indicates. The combination of soft leather and light heel makes the Black bootie look dressy. The Stonewash leather is solid and sturdy, but still soft, with a dark heel. The distressing is much more extreme than the photo - too heavy-handed, IMO, including the pound marks on the heels (as if you had whacked the heels into gravel). One mark even cut through, leaving a flap of heel leather. The bootie leather itself is not scratched or damaged; the distressing is due to the way the leather dye is applied. I returned both and re-ordered the Stonewash in a 10 as the casual style is a better match with my day-to-day. If they look the same as the 9.5, I may just re-polish them to smooth out some of the heavy distressing. One more thing: it is painful for me to wear heels, but these underslung 'Spanish' heels are extremely supportive and comfy - YAY! Dropped 1 star due to over-heavy distressing.

The reviews complaining about the heel are accurate. It is not the same stacked leather heel on other Fryes, and it does feel a little more cheaply made. I have a pair of Frye cowboy boots that I have had for over six years now, and they are phenomenal quality and I expect to have them for the rest of my life. These booties are beautiful and the leather is well made, but the heel is not the regular quality heel of Frye. They are quite comfortable, and match with everything. You do have to be careful with nubuck, and it is more high maintenance than leather. I love them and I am keeping them, but I would have paid more for the regular quality heel.

These boots are insanely gorgeous. I've been looking for the perfect brown bootie for a long time. One that was casual but could be dressed up; shapely but not too pointy toed; a brown that was not too casual, saturated in color, and not too shiny. The Camel was the perfect choice. The coloring is beautiful with just enough contrast on the leather without making it tacky or too countryish. On top of that, it fits wonderfully! I would say the perfect width and height! The only downside is that for this price, the quality is not as perfect as I would like it to be. There are some super tiny markings on the leather (not as bad as distressed leather shoes look). The pair I got, the threading at the back of the foot was broken or snapped. I'm sure it would have been fine to wear (not that it would fall apart), but all I am saying is for this price, it better be perfect. I'm getting another pair to see if the quality is a little bit better.

Cute soft boots, and I so wanted to love them, and I did...until I wore them around the house for an hour or less. The front of the boot isn't cut low enough for me, so the leather dug in to my shin. I don't know if this would go away with time, but at the cost, and given the fact that I want to wear them in the summer, barefoot, with dresses, I don't want to take that chance.

I purchased these in the black stonewash color and I really loved the look of them. They were a great combination of black + a little tan. It's hard for me to find black leather boots I like because so many look shiny/too dressy for my style. They also had a really flattering dip/cut in front at the ankle. So I absolutely loved them, however they still had to go back due to comfort/fit. All of my Frye boots are size 7 and fit great; however, these were tight in my usual size (and not in an "Oh, they'll stretch a little and fit comfortably" sort of way). Also, I'm still not convinced that going up a size would have helped the comfort issue, something just seemed off in the comfort department, which is why I decided to return instead of go up a size.

The "eggplant" color is really purple. On my monitor, they looked more oxblood, which is what I was looking for. I'm a fan of purple though, and almost kept them anyway, but I couldn't quite justify the price. The style is great. Soft leather. Nice pointy but not-too-pointy toe. Although I felt a slight toe crunch after walking around the carpet for a few minutes, but not terrible. Heel height is 2.75", which is the maximum for a comfortable boot, in my opinion.

This are beautiful boots, but not a good fit for my foot. The toe box is quite narrow, while the heel was wide. My foot was wedged into the boot while the back was slipping up and out with every step.

It was cute but not impressive. Bit wide and felt big though the length was right. Ok bootie but not worth the price

First order in my usual size 8.5. Had to get a 9.5 to fit,especially in toe box. Pointed toe, but have never had to order 9.5.These run small. Order at least 1/2 size up. I gave 2 stars for overall due to the heel and these are not comfortable. Don't care for material in heel, why didn't they do a regular stack? And the angle is a bit off...would've liked more western heel and the boot would've been more comfy to wear. But they are great looking and I've looked for 2 yrs to find a replacement for my old beige ankle boots. I got the 9.5 so I could wear a thicker sock, which gives me the padding and fit needed to make this boot wearable. I'd like it more if the toe wasn't as dark as it is....all over same color would've looked better, But am keeping this boot and will wear it often. Looks really good on! So thankful for Zappos return/exchange policy which enabled me to get the boot that fit right!

These boots look great but are surprisingly uncomfortable as hell. I can't wear them for more than an hour or so without pain due to the very pointed toe. I have other point toe shoes, so it must be something about the angle of the heel and how it pitches your foot forward into the point. Have worn them out a few times so most likely will give to a friend or relative in hopes they can wear them, it's too late to return them. :(
