Campus 12R Boot (Women)

The boots are gorgeous and the suede is beautiful but it hits my calf at THE most unflattering spot. They either need to make the shaft shorter or taller. These boots make my calves look tree trunks! The fit is so weird, too. I had to check several times I had the boot on the right foot. For almost $500, these should look and feel like a dream!

I had been eyeing this style of boot for awhile, and when I saw these suede ones come in stock, I jumped on them. I love them. Very comfy and stylish. I am a size 6.5, but ordered the 7, and they fit good with thicker socks, I didn’t want to risk them being too snug (other Frye 6.5 were too tight in the toe box area). I sprayed them beforehand (with suede spray) to hopefully keep them looking nice for years to come. This boots are pricey but know I will use them a lot.

Do not size up! Because of reviews, I ordered up a half size. I got this boot and was so excited. When I opened the box to see the beautiful color, I knew I had made a good online purchase. Then, I tried them on. They were too big and not comfortable to walk in. I own multiple pairs of Frye boots and could tell that even if I sized down, this wouldn't be comfortable or a favorite pair of boots to wear. They sadly had to be returned. I'd suggest trying them on in person if possible.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’d love to share my thoughts on the new Campus 12R. It’s an excellent product overall, the color is beautiful, and the design is very versatile, making it easy to pair with different outfits. The quality feels solid and well-crafted. My only suggestion would be to make it slightly wider in the calf for a more comfortable fit.
