Love, love the boots.....
best boots review on FRYE Billy Pull On Chocolate Vintage

Be prepared-people will try to buy these boots off your feet! I have 2 pairs-chocolate and black. I personally like the chocolate best. Very neutral and broken in looking, they look great with everything!
On to fit-these boots are stiff and do require a break in period, also, I suggest a boot jack to help get them off Roma Wooden Boot Jack With Rubber Grip. As to size, I suggest going as true to your size as possible. I generally wear a size 6 but in most closed toe shoes that require a sock I go up a half size. I followed the recs on sizing for this boot and found them to not be true for me-I really needed what I thought I did-again a boot jack really helps.. My feet are high arch and average width. I have no issue with the shaft width but if you are worried about chaffing I suggest Lanacane Anti Chafing Gel, 1-Ounce (I am the blister queen and use this a lot).
I love these boots! They fit great and I wear them all the time. They wear really well too- I go to school where there is a lot of rain and snow and they still look great!

These boots are fantastic, quality is exceptional. They are extremely comfortable (right from day one). Went up 1/2 a size from my normal size on the recommendation of another customer because of the pointed toe and they fit perfectly! Will be coming back to purchase another pair of Frye boots soon.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE frye boots for their durability and quality. They are hands down worth the money. I wanted boots with a little flair, but in neutral colors, and this boot was perfect. Always get tons of compliments. Only thing is that is pinched my toes slightly the first week or so, but that went away with thicker socks and wearing-in.
ReplyDeleteAs most know, Frye boots are very well made and well worth the money.
ReplyDeleteI ordered these boots recently and was questioning if I should order my actual shoe size or go a half size larger, after trying some on at Nordstroms and speaking with the salesperson, they informed me that with Frye Boots you should get your actual shoe size , they may feel a little snug at first,but with time they will stretch a bit.
I am VERY pleased with my purchase and know that these boots will last me for a long time.
I have had these boots for 4 years and have worn them constantly every winter. I lived in Manhattan for 3 of those 4 years so that automatically means miles and miles of walking, sometimes over 5 miles in one day. I also wore them on trips to Paris, Amsterdam and Buenos Aires and walked EVERYWHERE. My feet never hurt or get tired in them. I wear them with skirts/dresses and tights, leggings and skinny jeans. Perfect with every outfit!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite boots ~ LOVE them! I did go up 1/2 size and had to have them stretched at a local shoe place in town, but they are now perfect! Looking forward to wearing them for yeeeaaars! Great quality product....
ReplyDeleteWell worth the price! These boots take a little while to break in, and are a little difficult to get on and off when brand new. But just wear them a few times and they will fit perfectly and be very comfortable. Heard great things about the quality of Frye boots and these were my first pair, now I'm looking to order my second pair (riding boots) because I love these so much. Ordered my normal shoe size and was happy with the fit.
