Like walking on a cloud. I have big wide feed and usually can’t pull off this style of shoe. The detail makes my foot look smaller and they leather is so soft that my foot doesn’t feel jammed in there. Worth every penny!!! Frye won me heart with this shoe.

I love the look of this shoe & really wanted them to work out for me. Unfortunately, it was very difficult to get the right zipper zipped, and the left zipper wouldn’t zip at all because the shoes were too narrow for my feet. The right shoe that I was able to zip also slipped in the heels so it was too long for my foot. So it was an all around bad fit for me, but loved the look. I returned them.

I am a 10M and these fit perfectly out of the box. Just wore them for 4 hours (no socks) zero rubbing anywhere. Expensive but beautifully made and cushioned. Wasn't sure initially about the zippers and wondered if they somehow looked too much like a bowling shoe . . . but they are really cute -- looked great with cropped jeans. Wanted a comfortable upgrade from a running shoe when traveling on holiday and these are the perfect stylish solution.

Great looking shoe however the zipper constantly comes down while walking. It does not stay up making the shoe feel loose while walking. They are not comfortable but they look good.

I have these in the silver and bought them to wear to work as a casual nice shoe. They completely fit the bill and are comfy to wear all day. However there are a few things to note; they run narrow in the toe I'm a size 6 so have a small foot but the the toe area tapers making less space then some other slip on sneakers I have (Ugg Cas). Also, the largish zipper toggle flops around when walking and the platform of rubber (which makes the shoe fun) is a bit heavy. I LOVE mine but I don't use to run around all day...just at work in a limited space.

Love these shoes aesthetically. They feel slightly big and slip off the back of my foot, but I have pretty narrow feet so that could be a factor. The most significant design flaw, in my opinion, is that the zippers don't stay zipped. When I walk quickly for more than half a block they get significantly looser and I often have to stop and re-zip. I still wear them, but it's a pretty annoying oversight, especially considering price point.

These shoes are really cute. I've had a few issues with them. Normally I wear either an 8 or 8.5. I ordered an 8.5. The heel is a bit on the wider side so due to slippage I need to wear higher socks so they don't start getting sucked into the shoe. I don't think I have wide feet, maybe mine are just higher than most since when I put them on and pull up the zipper inevitably once I've walked around for 10min the zippers start to unzip so eventually it's like the shoes were never zipped up.
Why not give them less stars. Even when the zipper falls if I have higher socks on they are still pretty comfy and look cute. They just won't be my primary pair of black sneaks.

Folks, how is nobody commenting on the fact that the zippers don't stay up? These shoes are truly the cutest, they went well with a refined trendy look, that you could almost dress up to look like a really put together adult going to a fancy lunch spot...but the zippers undo so you end up sounding like those college kids that drag their feet around campus in flipflops. The zippers stay up for a few minutes, but the minute you bend down (like to pet a dog or something), there they go...it feels like that moment when your pants rip and you're like now what? Keep zipping my shoes up? So sad...I returned them, thank you ZAPPOS for being so accommodating. I really wanted to love these shoes...but no can do. Also, run about a half size bigger than other fryes.

Super cute shoes. Love them. But I ordered Half a size up based on reviews and they feel a half a size too big. Reordering in my normal size.

Love these shoes! Waited a month to order. Wanted the clay colored and that is what I bought. Could have gotten the white soled style for half the price but I was in love with this new color combo. First off I have a thing for zippers and snaps. The oversized zipper was right up my alley. Love the ease of putting these on. They are super comfortable, especially barefoot but I am afraid of the “stink” factor and will not chance because of the expense. I did heed the advice of others and went up a half size. They fit great, room for socks. These are expensive but I feel the quality is there.

These shoes are super comfortable!!!! They are also very cute, although they are a bit clunky. I find that they look 'big.' Regardless, they are very cute and comfortable.

I love my Frye boots and shoes. I think that this shoe is the best of its style out there. I normally wear a 7.5.
However, in reading reviews on Frye's similar styles, I purchased the 8. If I had wanted to wear socks with them, they would have worked. I was afraid i I didn't that my heel would slip out of the shoe.

I mostly wear a size 8.5 in frye sneakers. The 8.5 was uncomfortable as the stitching in the left shoe rubbed against my toe area without socks. There was heel slippage. Size 9 is comfortable, does not rub but there is still slippage. Wore them all day inside. Keeping size 9 despite heel slippage. Beautiful color. They are minimalistic with just the zipper.

Love these! First of all, these sneakers are extremely comfortable right out of the box! and without socks. And they are really cool looking! The large zipper makes them extra stylish and they are so easy to put on! I did not want to feel like i was wearing nursing shoes. I highly recommend them and they are worth the price!

These are the best casual shoe that can also be dressed up. I wear them with everything and they're very comfortable! I haven't had issues with the zipper like other reviewers. Sometimes I wear the zipper up or leave them down for ease of slipping on/off. Even when they're down, I don't feel like I'm going to walk out of them. Highly recommend!

As expected with Frye, the quality is unmatched! I only imagine more comfort as the shoes get more broken in. Great color for fall and solid arch support - unusual for this shoe style.

I had looked at these for months and finally got them for fall. They are really comfortable and look great! I'm between an 81/2 and a 9 usually. The 8 1/2 fit.
