"The color was quite different in person. Hardly gold in any light other than very warm. Should probably be called “metallic black”. The leather did feel a bit lower quality than other Frye items I’ve had-and the paint on the boot is quite flakey. The return process is very convenient, thankfully."

Reviews
"I’ve worn these only 3 times and the yellow has already rubbed off. I think that’s really unacceptable for the amount of money these cost… Really sad because it’s a cute boot"
Terrible customer service and exchange policy.
"I bought a pair of these boots while on sale in wide calf, turns out I didn’t need wide calf despite following the measurements provided in the sizing chart. Apparently you can not exchange a wide calf to normal calf and expect them to honor a sale price even though both items have identical pricing and were both on sale for the same price. I would recommend going to a real store where they will gladly honor sales prices for exchanges. Not this money hungry greedy retailer."
"Trying to stretch the right boot. I have a bunion that hurt when I first put them on. I had a pair similar to these in college and they were so comfortable, I lived in them!"

"Everything I wanted and more!!"
Sole is separating & breaking apart
"I ordered these shoes not even a year ago, have worn them occasionally & the sole is already breaking apart like the glue used to stack it is faulty or something. I have a pair of vintage Frye boots that are thicker leather around the calf, the soles of my vintage pair are undeniably better quality. I wouldn’t recommend for the price paid, I’d expect longer duration or products. Seems like quality is not the same."
