    Excellent pair of Boots These are a well made, durable pair of boots. I've had mine for two and a half years now. Hard to find in retail stores, but in my opinion, one of the best boot manufacturers around. I'm looking for a second pair just because and the only brand I want is Frye.

    My woman worships these boots. I got rid of my Doc Martens for these Fryes and my girl went nuts. She makes me wear them all of the time and oooh what she does to me when I wear them. She even made me keep them on in bed once. GET THESE BOOTS!

    These are some cool boots! I am a boot nut, and always dug the style of these, and wanted Fryes because I heard the quality was the best. They are darn hard to find in retail stores. I bought a pair of 13D and the fit is beautiful for my foot. I have a narrowish foot but am wide across the ball so a lot of times boots either slip on my heel or squeeze my toes. These don't. Nice snug fit. Heavy boot but very supple the way it feels on yoru foot. I can walk all day in these and my feet don't fatigue near as bad as any other boot I own. Get lots of comments on these, all with the word COOL in there somewhere. These fit great, feel awesome, are bulletproof, and I wear mine all the time. I'm 6'6" and would like a shorter heel, but will just replace the ones have when it needs it with shorter ones. I'm a BIG FAN of Frye boots. Excellent quality and workmanship.

    Great boots - These were my first pair in years and could not be happier. I've worn them a total of about 5 days and they feel broken in already. I'm very happy with my purchase and the service from Zappos.

    About Frye

    of New Styles!

    Notify me when new styles of Frye are added to the website

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    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.

    Great for the money - Look good and comfortable 2 hours out of the box. They made my feet tired after walking around mall for 3 hours, but they're also brand new and my first new pair in 20 years. My heel never slipped after 30 minutes of wearing them. I think after a year or so these will be like old jeans, and for this price, you can't go wrong.

    Harness boots still RULE! Got my new harness boots (Gaucho) from Zappos, and they feel like my first pair. My first were bought in 1969 and lasted through 2 resoling and 3 heels, lasting until the mid 80's. These new boots are lacking the leather lining of my originals, making donning them a real challenge. (NOTE, the boot straps are not just for looks! Use them.) However, the finsh on these new boots are far more superior, making them feel as supple as a well worn boot. The squared off toes are a real great feature, if you think "cowboy" boots pinch toes you'll be surpised with these, lots of room! I may save up for the Campus boots now. I'm still flexing my feet in wonder at the feeling, they look so great, can't wait to try them in bed. Oh yeah, and I'm a full 2 inches taller, look out world!

    Amazing boots! I have never had a boot fit so well and feel so "worn in" right out of the box. I'd buy another pair right now, except I think I'll get quite a few years out of these!

    Superb right out of the box - These felt broken in right out of the box and they remain some of the most comfortable boots I've ever owned. Great fit and finish - a well-made boot. Lots of compliments from friends and strangers, but more importantly, these are boots that just fit and feel right.

    Not just for guys! I wear size 12 women's and the 10.5 was perfect. I was afraid that the toe would be too narrow and pinch the ball of my foot, but after a few wearings they conformed very nicely to my feet and now even accommodate my arch supports. I gave these 4 stars in comfort because there's zero arch support in them, but otherwise they're perfect. Tons of classic attitude without being too over-the-edge; they even look good with dress pants, if I polish them up and hide the harness a little.

    No Doubt About It - I had my eye on these boots for three months and when I finally got them I was more than satisfied! Although they could be a bit more comfortable if you have to stand in them for hours at a time, as far as boots go, they fit well and they look as good with a pair of slacks and a sport coat as they do with a pair of jeans. I love the history behind the Frye boot, and the retro stylings of these in particular (I've had several people say, "I had boots like that in the seventies!"), and everywhere I go people compliment the boots. The strap and harness really does a lot to give the boot character and has the added benefit of making the toe look smaller than it is, so people with larger feet (12+) should be able to wear the boot without it looking like a clown shoe. All in all, these are beautiful, well-made boots that get attention and get the job done as well.

    six years - I've been wearing a pair of these for about six years now and I can definately Qualfy these as well made long wearing boots. I wear them 90% of my non working hours and with occasional applications of mink oil they have held up very well(I can still shine them up and wear them with a suit!(rare occasion). I mainly got these for riding (motorcycle) but as they are quite comfortable I wear them almost all the time. I've had them resoled twice the only problem I've had is the harness which has stretched out and hangs down near the heal . I will be getting a new pair soon and will probably get Frye's belted harness boot (it has a belt buckle on the harness and can be tightened) for that reason.

    The perfect harness boot - I wore the first pair for almost 5 years, replacing only the heels. These are comfortable, durable, good-looking boots, and they're the only harness boots I can find that look exactly the way they should. I wouldn't trade the Frye version for any other that I've seen.

    City Kickers - These boots are the real deal version of what high-end designers are recreating as vintage and charging 500 bucks for. They are surprisingly comfortable, not too hard to put on, and the rubber sole adds traction. Quite versatile, wear 'em on the bike or in the city.
