"This is my second time purchasing from Frye after I loved my first pair so much… These boots feel crackly, look splotchy, and wet. It looks obviously worn or previously used. The packaging was terrible, barely taped together, and the box was falling apart. Extremely disappointed with the lack of quality control. Now this color is sold out of my size, very disappointed."
"Frye boots aren’t how I remember from pre 2014. I was really surprised how light the weight of the boot was, not heavy and sturdy and good quality like I remember from Frye. Quality seemed similar to the Frye dupe boots I bought a couple years ago that were only $60. These are certainly not worth the $300+ price tag, I can’t believe people pay $500."
"Beautiful boots and very well made, but I’m disappointed in the fit. I owned the Frye Campus boots years ago and loved them. These are noticeably much wider through the upper shaft than my original pair. The tops are so roomy that they flop back and forth against my legs when I walk. I know my memory of the original fit isn’t simply because my legs were larger then—in fact, when I owned my original pair I weighed about 105 pounds and my legs were even thinner than they are now. The original boots still fit properly without this excessive looseness. They’re beautiful boots, and the quality seems excellent, but I wish Frye had kept the proportions of the original Campus boot. For someone with slimmer calves, the current fit may be much too wide."
"I have wanted these boots for 10 years and finally pulled the trigger to wear to an upcoming event. I ordered my usual size 8’s which were tight and I struggled to even wear them around the house. I exchanged for the next half size up, and the exchange process was easy. Frye shipped the boots quickly and my 8.5’s arrived in time for my event. I tried on the left boot which fit perfectly. When I tried on the right boot, it was so tight I couldn’t even get my foot in. The heel was too tight and no matter how hard I tried I could not get it on my foot. My husband tried, my mom tried… she wears a smaller size than I do and tried them on and said the right boot felt substantially smaller on the foot. That’s insane for $498 boots. At one point perhaps these were quality but now it’s inconsistent."
"I love them!!! I took a chance with the Bourbon color as I didn’t need another black boot, but I wear mostly black. These look AMAZING with black!"
"I bought these in garnet a half size up from my normal size. They were gorgeous and they fit great. BUT they were clonky and loudly slapped the back of my calves when I walked and no sock situation would fix it. I sadly sent them back. I’m petite but I don’t think I have really small calves but maybe I need a narrow calf edition? Idk. They were really nice in garnet."
"Frye has been really disappointing. I ordered some final sale boots that arrived flawed and they wouldn’t return them. The fit on boots has also been so inconsistent."
"They are stiff when you first get them but after a few wears, they are the perfect boot! I dress them up or down and I get so many compliments."
"Love them! Color is Gorgeous, quality excellent!"
"Terrible."
