Bought the Reed runner in size 9, with red which I returned. A very nice sneaker but decided on a chukka instead. Well made and does run narrow.

I just received the black and pink. Super cute but super narrow...so narrow, I didn't even try them on. I mean they are really skinny looking. I do have borderline narrow feet but I didn't want this to be a case of the shoes breaking me in instead of breaking them in. So...back they go.

While these sneakers might be a bit pricey, they're worth it! The cement color goes with everything and talk about comfort! I've not had a lot of compliments (people in SF don't do that!), I have gotten stares at my shoes and that can only mean, I'm wearing a cool pair of shoes!

These shoes have adequate support and were a tad on the narrow side when I first put them on but after wearing them for a day they've become a second skin.

Beautiful sneaker. True to size, but the front is a little long but doesn't affect walking.

The first time I wore these I received 3 compliments on them. Definitely keepers! Extremely comfortable and excellent arch support. They break in nicely and form to your foot. I've always worn Vans or Converse before and these Frye's beat them all in terms of comfort, breathability, yet still stylin'. High quality leather which cleans up easily if scuffed or your dog steps on your new shoes with muddy feet. My friend owns the grey/lime green pair and traveled all over Italy in them without a complaint. I give them two thumbs up!

These shoes are cute, well made and comfy. I'm only returning them because the Ecco Glory Tie shoe was a bit cuter and more had more support for the arch and more cushion under the heel. These shoes would have been another good option.

Great shoe! It is hard to find an all-leather sneaker. These breathe well and are comfortable. I have narrow feet and these fit great.

Got them within 24 hours. Zappos.com is the best! Soft leather, very comfortable considering I have a flat feet. Ordered them in brown/orange, same color as on the picture. I usually wear size 7, but these I ordered half size larger and they fit perfectly. And it is definitely for narrow feet. I am very happy with this product!

I was super excited when I saw Frye was making sneakers. The shoe has a rugged style, but the leather is top quality - just like the boots. The comfort is better than I've found the boots to be. I usually use superfeet inserts in all my shoes, but without one, this was comfortable for a day on my feet. The look is sort of androgynous, but I love it. A lot of the price is name, but the structure of the shoe lives up to a top boot maker (so far). True to size and width. Maybe a smidge narrow (like the boots) because my foot is narrow and I didn't have to lace too tightly, but adjustable with the laces. How could you go wrong?

Lovely dress. The color is between a watermelon and poppy. The fabric is great and it is well lined, which is very forgiving if you have lumps or bumps. I'm a size 12 with ample hips and it fit pretty true to size, except that the bust is a bit big. I'm a C cup, so not full busted, but not tiny either. I tried it with a bra that claims to give you two cup sizes, and there was still room up top. So more well-endowed ladies--you're in luck! If this dress were the right size, I could wear it without a bra, because the bodice has built in soft cups, and there's a good gripper all around the top. Overall, I really like this dress, it's very flattering on my pear shape, and it's elegant and appropriate enough for a guest of a wedding but still sexy enough to wear on Valentine's day. I think I'll just get the bust taken in a bit.
