Customer Reviews Frye Jayden Button Tall

Looooooovvvved these boots but couldn't quite get them zipped on my athletic calves. So bummed because they are beautiful!!

I got both the 11 and the 10 and they were huge. I just ordered a size 9. I am usually a size 10. The calf is not tight on the leg and it's a bit too large. Also I wish they would package them better. The top part of both boots are kind of bended, due to how they were placed inside the box. The jury is still out if I will keep them.

Loved the look and feel of this boot but the leather was a little too 'vintage' for me...very worn on one side. Am returning and hoping that the replacement pair will be more uniform in its texture.

Beautiful boot but couldn't zip it over my calves! I don't have that problem normally, especially in free boots which tend to have super wide calf dimensions. I guess it just wasn't meant to be.

Love love love but tight and wasn't prepared for the slick bottom of the shoe but had to return because I would need a 1/2 size bigger with a sock on.

These are super high quality leather boots. The leather is thick so I know they will last a lifetime. With that said the leather is stiff and will take time to break them in but the leather doesn't sag in the ankle area which is a pet peeve of mine. My only complaint is that they can be slippery and the material of the sole doesn't absorb any sound so they are a little loud to walk in.

These boots are beautiful - I got the redwood pair and the color is a rich reddish brown; it is absolutely perfect. They are the best quality boots that I have seen in a while, with a stiff but forgiving leather calf that stands up tall on its own (the sign of good leather). My only qualm is that I wish these were a little bit taller so they hit directly under my knee, but I have yet to find a boot that does. I am 5'7" and these fall short of my knee by about an inch and a half. I would also love if they were even stiffer so there was no slouch at all when wearing, but again, I have yet to find boots that do this unless they are a true riding boot, which is not very comfortable, anyway. Aside from my nitpickiness, the Jayden Buttons are pretty darn close to perfect. They are keepers.

Too narrow @ calf

I've always loved Frye Boots, but was disappointed by the width of the shaft. It was very wide at the top and looked very loose. The overall fit was true to size and the leather was very nice. Unfortunately, must return.

I wanted to love these boots. I have pretty skinny legs and narrow feet, so when I put them on they were pretty wide. I am usually a size 10, but I decided to size up due to thick socks that I like to wear with boots. These felt way too big and way too stiff. Otherwise beautiful boots.

Very pretty boot EXCEPT that the shaft and circumference measurements are inaccurate. It states 14.5 and 14 respectively but it's more like a 16 inch shaft and a 14.5 circumference. When you're a petite, the extra 1.5 inches in height makes a difference! Additionally, the sides of the boot flares out in a weird way so that the circumference looks even bigger than 14.5. Hope this helps! Unfortunately, the boot's going back.

These boots came and were beautiful, however I could barely get my foot in them. They were very stiff and uncomfortable especially around the ankles. I really wanted these to work and be a perfect fit, but they weren't. Also, I noticed was that the bottoms were different. One looked kind of worn, while the other was shiny. Not sure if that was a defect, the boots weren't from the same lot, or if that is normal. Regardless, I could have lived with this had they been comfortable.

I was so excited about these boots, and had read the reviews. But when I got them, I was disappointed in a few aspects. Contrary to one review I read, they cannot work with orthotics, which is a necessity for me. The ball of the foot was quite narrow while the heel was medium-wide width. The leather would definitely take breaking in. I had concerns about the zipper as it was pretty chunky, and not supple and able to smoothly go up and down like the vintage leather boots. I had chosen these because they were among the best boots that were real leather and leather lined. But the fit just wasn't meant to be.

I really wanted to love these but they just didn't work for me. Black dye ended up everywhere and I didn't like the styling at the top.

More brownish than what I consider graphite (which would have been more gray). I would have kept them, they are gorgeous, but the shaft was very big on me. My calves measure 13.5” at the widest and they were 1” too big. Sad to have to return them.

I was really hoping these would be THE ONES but alas they were uncomfortable around the ankle. It was very stiff and tight. I have small calves and the top of the boot juts out in a strange way on the outside side. II will be sending these back.

These are gorgeous and loved how they looked on, but they were extremely uncomfortable. The length of the boot was fine, heel to toe, but the width of the footbed seemed wide--my heel kept slipping out as I walked, and I felt myself getting "hot spots" on my heels within literally 3 minutes of walking around my bedroom. Sad to return these, but there's no way I can pay $300+ for uncomfortable boots, so they're going back.

The shaft is taller than it was in the description.

Nice looking boot. Seemed to run a little small. Big issue was the shaft circumference. The 14 inch was too big for my 13 in calves. Swimming in them. Returning them. I am finding the only boots that are truly for smaller calves are La Canadian boots.

Soo, I bought these in an attempt to replace a pair of Reiker boots I bought more than a decade ago. These look almost identical to that boot so I was super-excited. ... Until they arrived and I tried them on. I ordered a 9.5 (never worn that size in life) because I am an 8.5-9 and many reviews stated these ran small. Also, my foot is wide-ish. Not to the point that I require a wide width but I def have issues with footwear that leans toward the narrow side. This boot ALMOST fit. My heel slips and it feels like if I went down a half size the rest of the shoe would feel too narrow. Also worth noting, I'm 5'2. The height is fine. The boot was way too big for my calves. Im not skinny and am a runner. Sending them back and continuing my search. If they fit your foot and calf well you're in luck-it's a nice looking boot. Dont know how comfy theyd be for all day wear. Doesn't feel like there's any padding in the footbed.
