I bought these a couple of years ago on Zappos. I'm back on the page today because I'm back in the market for Chelsea boots. I definitely didn't think I'd be needing new ones so soon, and that's my main piece of feedback. These were not cheap, but I've worn a hole through both soles in the same spot (ball of the foot). I look like a hobo. I do walk a decent amount, but I also have lots of shoes, so the burden wasn't completely on this pair. I loved these when I got them, but I would never buy them again and potentially won't buy Frye again either. I'm now shopping for something with a more substantial sole.
