This is the first pair of Frye boots I have owned and this will not be the last. When I first put them on they felt a little snug but after about a hour they felt like I had been wearing them for years like an old friend. Love the wing tip.

These are awesome boots with a great Old School look and feel. I love wing tips and having a pair of wing tip boots is extra cool. They dress up with slacks, are great in the rain and go well with jeans. I put sno-seal on them to help waterproof the uppers, which also toned down the distressed look a bit. I walk a lot. My biggest issue with the boots is that they take a while to break in...but they get more comfy with each use and are feeling really good after having worn them about 15 days. Wearing high lace ups also requires a little technique to get on and off quickly, but its only slightly more cumbersome than a low lace up shoe.

These wingtip boots rock. The distressed look is beat up enough to go casual with jeans and the lace-up wingtip style works with dress pants and a sport coat. I waterproofed my pair with Snowseal and with their excellent waffle soles, they've become my go-to shoes for rainy days, especially in colder weather. They took a little while to break in, but it was well worth the effort.

About Frye
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.

The Frye James Lug Wingtip boot is an excellent choice for those who want a dressier look but need a rubber sole either for comfort or weather concerns. It was comfortable right out of the box with only a short break in period required. It is made in Mexico and that is the only drawback. Given the price, why not make it in America?

I received these boots in the mail the day after I ordered them; wow, that's really great service! Unpacked them, and in person, the boot's leather was unprofessionally distressed. I buy boots once in a few years, and need these to last, and won't take a chance on leather that's already torn to shreds. I'll be exchanging them for another color, since I believe the copper and grey pairs have clean leather.
