I have ordered and returned at least 4 pairs of boots (Frye boots) in the past few months because they either didn't fit properly or they didn't look right on me. My search is over with these boots. They were $66 through the Warehouse Deals, so I figured I would give them a shot. I'm happy I did. The fit is great. They fit great on the calf, allowing me to wear with jeans. Also, the shaft height is great for my 5'3" frame; they don't come up to my knee but more like a little over mid-calf. I ordered my usual 8, and I must say that the top of my toe area feels a little snug. I probably should have ordered an 8 Wide; however, I think they will stretch out a bit over time and with thinner socks they feel okay.
