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 just got mine and I love them! I got the cognac color, it looks a little darker in person but I almost like it better than the picture. The size fits perfectly. For people who have had trouble getting their foot past the heel; a woman at a shoe store told me when you first get a boot like this you need to use a plastic bag to slip your foot in initially, and that you should wear them around the house for a bit to wear them in. It worked great for me!

Similar story- got them and couldn't get my foot past the ankle. I wear an 8.5-9 and ordered a 9. Don't want to order a 9.5 or 10 and have the foot be too big. Going to be exchanging for a different style.

PERFECT flat riding boot! I was looking for just the right flat riding boot for about a year. Well, this is it! I chose the hammered full grain leather - expensive, but worth it. I get a lot of compliments. I love that it's a slip on. No zippers or closures. The shape of the shaft is perfect: a little bit of a straighter shape. The straps around the ankle are a perfect touch. They are a perfect blend of sophisticated polish, and downtown cool. Perfect for any and all occasions! I am usually a size 6.5, and reading a couple of other reviews, I thought I would have to size up, which I did. I ordered a size 7, and it was too big. I exchanged for a 6.5, and it's perfect. Roomy enough for thick socks too.

So I ordered these very excited; however, was a little disappointed when they arrived. They are stone washed leather, but to me, just appeared too used and old. I am a big fan of Frye boots, but these looked like I had already been working in the stables in them for years. Not the look I was really going for. Sadly they will go back and the search will continue.

Getting your foot into the boot has to do with two things: 1) how high your arch is---mine is quite high and hits the top of the boot way before the heel can slide in; 2) how open your ankle joint is---if you can flatten out the top of your foot in line with your shin hinging the joint fully open you have a better shot at getting in. If you have high arches and/or feet that don't point sharply (open ankle joints) this isn't the boot for you. In fact, most pull on boots with a slim-to-the-ankle fit will not make it over your foot. Bodies are built in all kinds of ways---not every boot is for every body.
