Frye Jackson Engineer boots for about $110, and like the look a lot. However, question on fit: How loose is the ankle and calf supposed to be? The shoe size fits perfectly (once I can wedge my feet into them, damn it's a tight fit), but the ankle is extremely loose. There is about and inch or two of extra space between my calf and the surrounding boot material, and looks weird if I tuck my pants into it. Shifts a bit when I walk too, and is a little distracting to keep getting contact and separation with the material on each step.
This is my first Frye and my first engineer boot - why so flappy?
