Size Down?
I first ordered the Naturalizer version of this that appeared to my Nordstrom feed at about the same time.....they were fine but didn't love the fit - just something off and crampy. I ordered my normal size of 8.5 in these and they felt just a bit big and didn't know if my bunion was loving the folds of the leather on the tongue inside. I saw somewhere that Frye might run larger (haven't had a pair since I was 20 years old and that was about 3 million years ago!). So, I tried an 8 and I think they are a winner. I'm a true 8.5 and once in a blue moon go to a size 9 to accommodate my ever-so-slightly wide foot and the aforementioned bunion. They are, naturally, a bit snugger but not in a bad way. They are super soft and very comfortable. I will try on in the house a couple more times but I think they are keepers and I will get a lot of wear out of them. I am only keeping things I absolutely love these days and cannot tolerate uncomfortable shoes. Try sizing down a 1/2 size.
