Frye Women's 'Tina' Tall Pleat Knee-high Boots

These boots are beautiful. The leather, heels, and pleating makes them look distinctive, expensive and well-made--no mistaking these for cheap one-season boots, these are an investment piece. I'm very pleased with them overall. My only complaints are that they are a bit baggy around the ankles, which tightening the strap does not fix. The boot does have a slightly slouchy look to the bottom part it that you can't really see from the photos. I think it's fine, but if you want a boot fitted at the ankle, this isn't for you. It was a bit tight in the top part of the calves initially but the leather stretched out to fit after a few hours of wear. The zipper makes these very easy to wear with skinny jeans if you like. The sturdy, stacked heels and durable bottoms make this far more wearable and walkable than other high-heeled dress boots. If you plan to wear these boots all day, though, you'll probably want some arch support insoles, as these boots lack arch support. They run true to size and most likely do not need to be sized up even if you do want to wear thick socks with them, unless you are between sizes.
