I just received these shoes today, when I opened box and I realized that these shoes are Suede not leather! They are also a little darker blue. The fit is true to size and very comfortable and soft. Except they are SUEDE!!

I'm always looking for an upscale casual shoe for travel and weekend outings. This is a super cute casual slip on.. A+ on style. Unfortunately, no support what so ever. Unfortunately these will go back. I'm still on the hunt!

Boo hoo. I wanted to love these and I thought I would. Somehow they were uncomfortable even though the leather was soft.

I saw these shoes on a trip to Texas. They did not have my size, but I loved the shoe. I thought when we get home I will order them from Zappos. I was so excited when they arrived, I had already decided which clothes I was going to wear them with. My excitement was quickly dashed. My right foot bunion let it be known that this was not the shoe for me. Plus the shoe top gapped...so it was not because the shoes were to narrow. Back to Zappos they went.
Others were correct, extremely soft leather and very good looking. But not for me.

I have these shoes in 5.5 in black and they fit great. They are so comfortable but Frye must have changed something because I ordered a 5.5 in the cognac and they are too big. I’m so disappointed they don’t come in a 5.

I have a pair of this same shoe from last year. I love everything about them, and since I wear them so much, I wanted to update them. I've since bought two of the Melanie slip ons and am incredibly disappointed by the change in quality and fit. The shoes are like boats compared to the version from last year, and the leather is stiff and uncomfortable. It's sad that Frye isn't "making them like they used to."

Beautiful leather, but the shoe does not fit a high arched foot. It was super tight. I had to return the shoes.

Darker silver than expected. Very narrow. I have fit into other Frye flats - these are much more narrow than my others.

Love the look and feel of these shoes. Very comfortable for walking. However after wearing these about 5-6 days a week for 3 weeks they have already developed holes in the tread of the heels. Yes I live in nyc and walk more than the average person but I was hoping these shoes would at least make it through one summer. Beautiful shoe but disappointed in the quality.

Loved the look of this shoe. Sadly the toe box was wide enough, but still squished my toes (it wasn't tall enough) and made it uncomfortable

I got the Melanie Slip-on in metallic in January expecting this to be my everyday shoe. I ordered a size 9 and returned them for a size 8 1/2 because they ran on the larger size and other reviews said that the leather will soften. When I first got them they were fantastic. I got a ton of compliments, and the shoes gave me pretty good support/went with most of my wardrobe. I expected to buy an additional color in the near future.
However, the shape unfortunately wore out quickly and the soles don't seem to have a lot of life left. I was excited to see these through the spring and (hopefully) summer, but they didn't last more than a couple months (jan-mar). Great shoe if you want to save them for special occasions but not the Frye quality/durability I have come to expect and admire.

I wanted to like these, but after a few hours walking inside, my feet hurt. There is no arch support, the toe box is tight both side to side and top to bottom.

I really liked this shoe but it was too long. I have a very narrow foot but the width seemed like it would work if I tried a smaller size. (I would normally never do just to compensate for the width.) I can not say if this would work because they are out of stock in my size. Oh, how I wish someone would make a truly narrow shoes that are like this.

These shoes were too wide for my foot - my heel doesn't stay in at all when I step. I may try a smaller pair, but I'm afraid the toe box will be too short.

Very uncomfortable shoes. Ordered various sizes and turns out the top width is inconsistent even in same sizes.

I really liked these and had previously ordered the distressed metallic in the same size, 7. Those fit perfectly in a 7 which is my size. The black ones were are least a size smaller so I am returning them. Not sure why this happened. Really disappointed. Its an attractive well made shoe.

toe box is narrow and small. i have ingrown issues in my big toes and this would be too painful to keep. I figured that out thankfully in the first 3.5 seconds i wore them on the carpet , and then back in the box they went. a half size larger would have been slipping off the heels. kindof ugly orthodic old lady look to them considering it's funky fresh frye. i thought the leather would be more distressed and edgy indicating a more millennial look. i have ingrown issues but these are a hard no looking like nursing home skids. blah. fail.

I own a pair from 2 years ago in cognac & love them. Very disappointed to get the grey- once back in stock, and the fit was very loose across the top of my foot.

I bought these shoes in grey and absolutely loved them right out of the box. I am a teacher and being on my feet all day, it is important to me to find shoes to wear that are comfortable and stylish. Unfortunately, the heels developed holes after 28 days of wear. Considering how much they cost, this is unacceptable and does not represent Frye quality. I own 12 pairs of Frye shoes and boots and this is the only pair that I have had such a disappointing result with. I reached out to Zappos and received a prompt reply to return or exchange the shoes, which is greatly appreciated.

If you have wide feet and a high arch, run away. Super tight - couldn't even get foot in. Good looking though.
