Beautiful Boots

I have been looking for a pair of boots in this shade for awhile. These do not disappoint: the leather is amazing. I know I will have these for years. Worth the price for sure. Excellent craftsmanship.

DO NOT PURCHASE

These boots were on sale, so I decided that I would purchase a pair. I recently bought the Melissa Button boots by Frye and I absolutely loved them, but when I received the Melissa Trapunto boots, I was beyond disappointed. I did not like the way that the leather looked or how they fit. They looked cheap and were huge in the calves. I would not recommend purchasing these boots, and I will definitely be returning them!!! Don't waste your money.

Great boot but not for me

These boots are very attractive and well made...I wanted them to fit so bad! I usually wear somewhere between a 9 and a 10, and I have 16 inch calves. I tried on a 9, a 9.5, and a 10. My foot fit great in all of them but my calves were just too big for any size. They were very tight against my bare skin..there was no extra room for jeans or pants to fit in there. I was so sad. I ended up going with the calf height Frye boots instead.

Ehh

These boots looked beautiful online, but looked a lot different in person. I saw online that the color varied in the boot, but in person they looked almost tie dyed. I have small-normal calve size and there were also huge in the calve and slipped when I walked. I returned these immediately.

not for muscular calves

I have 15-15.5inch calves and unforunately couldn't get the size 7.5 boots on over them so had to send back. Cute boots otherwise though, basic and nice leather

LOVE these boots!

I usually jump between 7.5/8, but ordered a 7.5 of these and they fit perfectly! They are not tight at all and are extremely comfortable. I also bought the Frye cream to help weatherproof them. Most of the reviews of this cream say that it darkens the boot, but I did not notice them darken at all. Would highly recommend these boots to anyone!

Pretty & Soft... but too casual

These are very pretty boots, and I had to get them once they were put on sale. Soft leather, the marbling is beautiful, but they are too casual for what i was looking for. The leather slouches and cannot stand by itself (which is fine if that's what you're going for). I purchased a half-size up and STILL was not able to get my foot in despite using the plastic bag trick. These were returned.
