    I usually wear a 9 1/2 or 10. People said that these ran big and to order down, so I ordered a 9 1/2. I couldn't even get my foot in the boot. The 10 fit fine however. Great boot, however!

    I just received these boots for Christmas and love them. The fit is more comfortable than I thought. Usually I need to put insoles in my Frye boots since they tend to have hard soles, but these are very comfortable and don't need them. A must buy!

    I got these in the lighter color that looks distressed. I really like them. The taller ones didn't fit my calves which are 14.5 inches around. So these are perfect. I wear them with jean, slacks and skirts. I think the shorter boots are more versatile anyway. I have worn them on a farm in the dirt and riding a horse, to work and out to dinner. The dirt just kind of shakes off somehow. As others have said they are a bit slim in the toes, so I don't do any major hiking or long walks in them. I know they are going to break in and get better and more like a shoe glove. I am happy that the Fryes I always wanted are as great as I had hoped. Bite the bullet. Get the good ones.

    Brands I'd also recommend: "Docs", Earth, Keen, Vans, Converse are my staple shoes

    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.

    I had three different Frye styles sent, and this is the one that I thought I would probably not choose because I've had them in the past and they're such a old style. Well...guess what...they won the contest. They are as good as always and always look the best on my feet. They do run big. I am always an 8 1/2 and usually a 9 and these fit me perfectly in size 8.

    These look great - but I prefer the dark brown - have ordered both. This leather is almost nubuck and flat - but really cool just the same. Wish I could keep both. By the way, these run at least 1/2 size big. Had originally ordered another color in 7 1/2 (I'm normally a 7.5 or 8) - and had to order 7 - and there is still plenty of room in those. Even thought about ordering 6.5. So just be aware, these run big. Great boots!

    An amazing boot, and my husband loves them too! The first try on is difficult, so hang in there and they get easier to pull on afterward. I ordered an 8 and usually wear an 8 1/2, sometimes a 9. A classic boot that will surpass all the trends!

    Really comfy cool boot. I dont know though if I agree that these run true to size. I have a narrow long foot, size 11 and they were definitely not too wide. They actually fit quite well in the width, but do slip a little. I added an arch support orthotic, and they are wonderful. Great with jeans, I wear them almost daily. Really worth the money.

    I normally wear an 8B, and had to go down a whole size to 7. These were very hard to get on at first, but have loosened up with wearing. Now the boots are very comfortable and I love them!

    These boots are so good looking in person! They are very comfortable also. I ordered my regular size even though some reviews said to size down. I'm glad I ordered my regular size because if I'd sized down I don't think I would've been able to get them on my foot. I find they fit true to size.

    Cute cowboy style boot - not for me though. Runs very narrow. I have found that my issue with Fryes is that I must go 1/2 size down from my regular size of 7.5, but they are really hard to get on until/unless they stretch out because of my high arches. Ordered engineer 8Rs instead and love them. The harness leather feels more stiff than the engineer.

    My sister in law had these boots and I really liked them so I went online and found them at Zappos where she said I would, received them within a week and love them . They are very comfortable so much so that I wore them for 2 days in a row and got sore feet. I should have broken them in but; they are fine now. Also I am glad that a review said you need to go down a half size otherwise they would have been too big.

    Awesome Boots! Just what I’ve been looking for. I am sure that I will be wearing them for many years to come! My only regret is that I should have ordered a 1/2 size down. After wearing them for a while, however, they seem to mold to your feet and don’t slip around much at all (which is why I elected not to exchange them).

    I have looked at these boots for a long time and finally splurged on them. I have loved them from the moment I put them on. I walk a lot in my job and have no complaints. I mainly wear Keens due to heel pain, but with these boots, I have had no pain at all. They are great.
