About Frye
The Frye Company was founded in 1863 by John A. Frye, a shoemaker from England. Frye products have a long and illustrious history. Frye boots were worn by soldiers for both sides of America’s Civil War, soldiers in the Spanish-America war, and for Teddy Roosevelt and his Rough Riders. Many New England families during the mid and late 1800’s wore Frye boots as they pioneered across the country to the West.
Frye's current Harness Boots are rooted in tradition and continue to draw influence from the Cavalry. Today the classic Harness Boot holds a place in American culture. The Frye Harness Boot has been pictured in fashion spreads internationally. In 1938, on a trip to Washington, D.C., John A. Frye's grandson and namesake met a U.S. Navy Admiral who confided that he had trouble finding the Wellington boots he liked so much. As a favor, John agreed to make him a pair. Frye continued to fill requests for these boots through the Second World War. During World War II, Frye supplied thousands of servicemen with Frye Wellington boots, known as Jet Boots, by mail order.
In the 1960's, Frye reintroduced the Campus Boot, from its 1860 original, featuring a bulky toe and chunky heel that came to epitomize the attitude and the style of the 60's and 70's. There was nothing like these "new" Frye Boots on the market, and consumers began to demand "Original Fryes." When searching for items to represent the America of the 60's, the Smithsonian Institute chose a pair of Frye Boots.
The quality of all Frye shoes is timeless. For almost 150 years, Frye leather products have continued to be benchcrafted from the finest full grain leather uppers. It takes over 190 steps to make one pair of Frye boots. Frye remains dedicated to the commitment of craftsmanship for which Frye boots and Frye shoes have been known for more than 100 years.

Frye Reviews
Broken hearted. I really wanted these shoes, but alas, it was not to be. Excellent make and awesome leather, but if you have high arches and regular size feet, they probably won't work for you. They kept sliding off my feet and I even tried going down one half size, and then a whole size (too tight). Recommend Seibel's instead. Easier to walk in. But I do love the look of this shoe. Very heavy, nice leather sole, but to clunky to wear if you're a small person.
Great looking boot, but I have athletic calves and there was no way this boot was going over my muscles. Had to return, sad about it.
These boots are amazing and look vintage. They do mark up easier than other Frye's because the leather is so soft and worn, but it adds to the look.
The reviews for the Veronica Slouch boots speak for themselves. I was stalking these boots for a long time and finally broke down and bought them! Very comfortable right out of the box! I don't like slouchy boots and these are really not very slouchy, just a bit. Dress them up or down. I have to say, I have noticed many women stalking my boots! Just get them already- so worth the money!
Beautiful, beautiful boot. Unfortunately couldn't even get my foot in. I must have a high arch or something, I couldn't even get my foot down into them. bummer, because they are gorgeous!
These are comfortable with next to no breaking in. I needed a work boot and a trudging-through-mud-and-snow boot, and these have really endeared themselves to me. I'm a 6 1/2 and they fit true to size.
Gorgeous and typically excellent Frye craftsmanship, but they do seem to run a little big. Thinking about exchanging for a half-size smaller. I do kind of wish the heel was slightly higher.
I love this boot! Great style, excellent workmanship. It is flexible enough to wear all day. I wish it had a little more arch support. Will wear it for many years.
These boots are great but I am so glad I read the reviews before trying them on. I would have sent them back because they are really really hard to get on at first. They do stretch and are more comfortable every time I wear them. I always get compliments on them. Love them!
It took many exchanges before I found a style of Frye boot that worked for me. My main problem was the flare at the top of the boots. I like to wear them under jeans. This pair is perfect to wear under jeans! I usually wear a size 10 (narrow foot) and I attempted the 9.5 first (following other reviewers). I had to go down to a size 9. They fit! I'm keeping them! Now, if they only came in red....
Beautiful boots! They are comfortable. They hug your legs...no problems.
These boots look fantastic. Soft, supple and rugged. I love them but...after wearing them out for one day, they started cutting into my Achilles. For some reason, the heel support piece on the back of the boot, comes up unusually high. This is my 5th pair of Frye boots and I have never had this problem before. I am hoping it's a defect. Will return and try another pair. These really are beautiful boots and the cognac suede color is so rich.
These boots are great. Slipped right on with minimal break in required and sturdy leather and perfect proportions. They hit me right at the top of my knee (I am 5-8) uncuffed and the only way to wear them. Slim fitting jeans are recommended to show them off. I got these in Saddle and Clay I like them so much. Create a stir no matter where I am.
I love these boots! They are very comfortable, high quality, and a classic design. I'm 5'9" and they fit in the perfect place right below the knee. I have 15 1/2" calves from years at the gym and these fit comfortably -- tight enough to wear with hose/tights without sagging and I can still tuck jeans/pants in. They aren't cheap, but worth it...and a lot cheaper than the $900 similar Lucchese's I tried on.
I usually wear a 7.5 N and the 7.5 was too large. I got a 7M and it fits great. Love the shoe! It's not too wide and I can wear it with either thin or thick socks. If you have a really wide foot you might find them too narrow.
Just got these--they are gorgeous and I love the color. Unfortunately, I couldn't fully appreciate them as I couldn't even pull them on my 6.5 foot.
These are fantastic flats. Amazing quality and they fit perfectly. The sole is solid leather so they are a bit slippery at first. Simply scuff them on some pavement to prevent slipping.
