Tyler Plain Toe Boot (Men)

Out of the box, they were snug around the middle, and I was concerned my wide feet might not fit these boots. But literally within five minutes of wearing them the warmth of my feet expanded the leather and they fit perfect. I think the softness and quality of the leather uppers on these is really what you're paying for. The soles are a little thin and I could see where after 6 to 12 months of weat you might have to resole the entire boot. That's my only criticism so far. The other part that is problematic is they are difficult to put on - considering the lace up aspect. I like the leather laces, but they do make it more difficult to loosen and tighten the boot. For this style of boot, these are a very good choice and good quality. I don't think you'll be disappointed by these boots regardless of the style you choose.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I must like these boots, as I just bought my third pair. However, I’m buying this pair in hopes that they will live up to my first pair. The second pair, even though I bought the same size as before, always felt bigger and longer than my first. I bought a half size down, my normal size, and these feel better. They may still be slightly longer than my first pair. There seems to be a slight problem with consistency. Interestingly, the leather feels significantly different on each pair too. I’m hoping this pair will wear into the suppleness of my first pair (since they are 9 years old, it’s hard to remember how soft they were initially).

Frye boots were my go to for years, however, I’ve noticed recently the quality isn’t quite what they used to be. Leather and soles are much lesser quality wise and the ‘tan’ boots I ordered are a dark chocolate brown. I’m glad these were on a deep sale otherwise they would have been returned immediately.
