Customer Reviews Frye Regina Ballet

Very nice flat -- well constructed and good quality leather. I bought the gray, which matches the photos exactly, and it's a nice neutral color that will go with many outfits. The only problem I had was with sizing...if you don't have wide feet, stick with your normal size. I am normally a size 6 and the 6.5 was too big, so I sent them back for my real size.

I ordered 1/2 size up since so many people mentioned it ran narrow. No need. I'm sending them back for my usual size 8.

I love these pointy-toed flats. They are well-made and very stylin'. In every other pair of Fryes I own, I wear a 9.5 but in this style I needed a size 10. (I am a size 10 in about 99% of other brands.)

This is a beautiful shoe, but runs slighly tight in the toe box; I may have to have it stretched so I can wear them all day. Shoe length is perfect (I'm a 6.5). There's also a sharp plastic thread on each shoe at one side that I may have glued back so it doesn't poke my foot. However, the shoes are pretty, just dressy enough, and I plan to wear them all summer long.

I am a true 7½ and I tried these shoes in a 7 and 8 in the stores. They were incredibly tight at 7 and really loose at 8 length wise. The 7½ was great in length but these shoes are narrow. I would consider my feet average. They were so tight that I can see my toes knuckling through the leather as these are pointy shoes. I wanted to make them work so I kept it and just tolerated the pain. Within a few painful days, the leather did break in. I used a stick to probe at the leather too. The leather is soft so it will stretch. I am not going to lie, it is not the most comfortable but I do like the pointy shape. The stitching also started to fray on some areas.

This is a beautiful flat. I looked for two years for a flat without a ballerina toe or a too pointy toe. This toe shape is a slightly pointy almond. I bought the drk brown and the vintage blue. The blue goes with any color denim or navy blue you can throw at them. The perfect blue! The only reason I rated them 4 stars on comfort is because there is a short break-in time while the foot bed conforms to your foot. I have high arches and it took a few hours of wearing around the house until I could feel the footbed against my arches. If I'm still in love with them after a shopping trip in them I will definitely order two more pairs in other colors.

I absolutely loved the ash color but I sent two pairs of this shoe back. The leather cracked and was flaking on the sides of the shoe in a few hours. The second pair had glue stains all over the front. I really wanted this to work because I can’t find the color in any other pointed shoe. So disappointed! I may try again in a few months, with the hopes of getting a different production run of leather.

This is the perfect metallic flat. I love the rose gold color and the quality of the shoe itself. Also I love how the tow is slightly pointed (not a dramatic point, but a slight one) as opposed to the numerous dowdy round toe flats on the market. This one really has sophistication and style. Frye has met my expectations yet again and I look forward to wearing this over the next few years and dazzling many an outfit.

Frye Regina Ballet in black - cute as far as looks go, but only for a narrow foot. I have a medium-to-wide foot with shallow heel and high arch, and typically buy medium-width shoes with no issues. The cut of this shoe gave my foot a muffin-top. I usually wear a 6 in Frye shoes since they have consistently run 1/2 size larger on me, but I think a 6.5 would have worked better for the length without making very much difference in the width. They are cut kind of like Italian shoes. In my humble opinion, Frye boots and oxfords are made to last, but these are not worth the cost. I liked the fact that the interior and balance were all real leather, albeit thin. Not a lot of padding in the footbed and zero arch support. Sides seem too short to accommodate addition of padding or orthotics. Sadly, we weren't solemates. Thanks you Zappos for fast, free shipping both ways and easy returns.

This shoe is so comfortable. I got it to wear around the office with my business wear. I wear 9.5 and I have a wide foot. I got a 9.5 in regular (medium). The fit is excellent, the shoe looks like it costs hundreds of dollars and the leather is very soft. I am in love and will be ordering one of every color.

I bought these shoes in turquoise in a size 8 after reading reviews that they ran small. They were way too big, even with an insert. I had to return them and ordered a size 7 1/2. They were a little snug but after a few wears they have already stretched out to the perfect size. I say with Zappos' fast shipping and easy returns go a head and order whatever size you want.You can't go wrong! The blue color is fabulous. And the leather is so soft. I love Frye, I own 7 pairs of Frye boots, 2 pairs of Frye heels, but these are the first flats I've purchased.I would say these shoes, at least in the turquoise, are true to size, unlike most Frye's which seem to run large. Again, with Zappos you can't go wrong.

Love them! I was hesitating to pay this much for "just flats" but I love Frye and decided to give it a try. They are worth every cent. Great quality. I got the camel color and am ordering another pair in black right now.

So gorgeous. I ordered the black and the camel. The sizing really depends on what color you get and definitely need some breaking in to feel true to size. Black runs normal and the camel ran smaller. I am typically a 9 and ordered a 9.5 and the black fit perfect and the camel are killing me- it will probably take a couple of wears to stretch out. Camel color is beautiful with natural gradient to the leather.

I love these shoes. Everyone said to order a half size up because the shoes are narrow. The shoes are narrow, but I have a narrow foot. I ordered my regular size and I am glad that I did. If I ordered a half size up, I think they would've been too big. Plus, I have a friend who has the Carson ballet and she said that her really stretched out after having them a year. These shoes are really comfy and go with everything. They are a really good looking shoe.

Frye has always been my favorite boot! Now they are my favorite ballet flat. Soft and comfortable, wear all day shoe. I have 2 pairs of the ballet flats now. Love them!

These flats are comfy and true to size! I did not find them tight at all. There are soft and super durable feeling. Plus, I had to send them back twice because of sizing, but Zappos had no problem. They're the best!

I love my first pair of Frye flats! It's comfortable without looking like a comfort shoe! I love the textured suede in brown. It's a perfect neutral. I wear a 7 but I had to get a 6.5 for this one.

Oh, I hate to throw a wrench in the reviews about sizing, but these ran large for me. I am usually 8 or 8 1/2, so ordered an 8 based upon other reviews, but they were too big! I can keep them and hope that they don't stretch, but based upon the softness and weight of the leather, I suppose they will. I've also owned some more structured frye flats in the past (similar to the Carson model, but thicker leather and a flat toe instead), and they stretched significantly. Perhaps if you have a narrow foot, you may consider sizing down a half-size since these seem to be pretty normal width-wise. Hmmm. These are most definitely adorable and I can't wait to receive my new size!

I love this flat! I wear ballet flats to work every day, I walk a lot and comfort is my highest priority. I often chose flats with elastic at top to keep heel from slipping but this shoe handles perfectly on my heel. True confessions, I have 5 pairs of this shoe in different colors... my only complaint is Zappos rarely has the size I need and I must wait for notification my size is in stock.

Frye has finally come out with a very cute and comfortable flat. I use a small orthotic insert when wearing a ballet flat. They accommodate the insert perfectly. I wear a 9 to 9.5... In the Frye the 9 was a good fit. Very stylish shoe. Lots of compliments. As always, Zappos delivered them in one day! Thanks, Zappos, for the great service!!

Recommend highly! Went back and bought a second color. Really well made and quite comfortable. I'm a true 8, but did get the 8.5 based on reviews, as I like a little extra toe room in a pointed shoe. The brown distresses beautifully. Have seen cheaper knockoffs of this shoe around...get the original!

Totally in love with theses shoes! They go great with just about anything. Completely worth the money, would recommend these to anyone. I can usually take anywhere from an 8-9 and Bought the 8.5 and they fit great and color is perfect. I own about 50-60 pairs of shoes and these are my favorite. Thank you Zappos again for a great product.

These shoes are so beautiful. I really like the ombre effect on the leather--I ordered camel and you can really see it. The leather is very soft as well. Order a half size up, though. I never listen when people recommend that in reviews but in this case, I could barely get the shoe on (which was really disappointing because they were really lovely). I returned and reordered.

Gorgeous shoe! But I have a wide foot, and couldn't get my foot in this shoe! Returning. Going up at least half a size. Because I couldn't even get my foot in it, maybe I will go up a whole size. I will read more reviews. I should have to begin with. Beautiful shoe though, I will make this work.

I ordered these in the red in my regular size of 8.5 based on previous reviews. However, the pointy toe felt cramped, so I ordered a 9. Those are too big, but putting gel inserts in makes them perfect. I get the toe room and added padding. The shoes are very cute and comfortable. However, these is little arch support or footbed padding, so the gel inserts help. It is nice to be able to try out different sizes and styles of shoes to make best final selection for me.
