FRYE Women's Jane 14 Stitch Boot

These are great boots. Sturdy and slightly clunky, but without being too casual or manly. The toe is rounded, but not as blunt as the Campus boots, making these more versatile and classic. The heel height is manageable, even if you walk a lot. Be prepared for a long-ish break-in period as these boots are made of thick, real leather, including the soles. A little slippage in the heel area is a good thing. It'll go away once you've broken these in. I found these boots to be true to size. I initially ordered them a half-size smaller after reading a number of reviews here and elsewhere, but found them to be WAY too tight and nearly impossible to put on. Definitely go with your normal shoe size unless you happen to have very narrow feet and thin calves (I have normal width feet and athletic calves). I might have to get the shaft stretched a little so that I can tuck jeans into these, but otherwise I'm very happy with my purchase. I can tell right away that I'll be wearing these for years.

After and long and arduous process (as Amazon and other vendors, UPS driver, and my husband can attest) I have FINALLY found my dressy boots. Being 5'9", having calfs that can bloat up to 15+", and being picky over what I wanted, it took many trials of different Frye boots to find something I love and works for me! Didn't try this style initially as I did not think it would fit around my calfs. But after other styles not working for various reasons, I figured what the heck. SO glad I did. These boots look and feel great, just fit over my calfs, have a perfect height heel, and are made with leather that is a good weight with a nice look and feel. Thanks Amazon for being patient with me. The hours of searching paid off with this high quality boot I feel I can comfortably live with for many years to come.

I got these boots and have been wearing them just about every weekend non-stop for months now. Lots of compliments.

They look great with skirts or over skinny jeans. Perfect for a girls' night out, comfortable, a little edgy but still dressy. I've worn them to the park for impromptu picnics and then to an evening out at the local bar.

Pros:
- Beautiful, classic style.
- Sturdy construction, good craftsmanship. Been wearing them for months now and no issues at all.
- Easy to break in.
- Heel is perfect height, not too high, not too low, and very comfortable to walk in.

Cons:
- With the sturdy construction comes a little weight. These are not lightweight boots but no worse than some of my other Frye boots.

I know they'll last me for years and years to come. Very happy with them.
