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.

If you haven't even purchased a 'real' leather boot before, please read... Fryes are made to last a life time. The Veronica Slouch is no exception. Order your normal size. I usually wear a six so I ordered a six. Put on a short or ankle height sock of medium thickness. I like to use my running socks. Sit down. Unpack your boots. Smell them. If you are like me, say, "Ooooh. Aaaah." a few times. Then put them on. When you first put them on, you WILL think that they are WAY too small. You will struggle and possibly break a sweat getting this boot on your foot. Pull the shaft up straight and stomp your way in. Make sure you have enough lenth in front of your toe...I have about 3/4 of an inch. Walk around long enough to make sure your heel doesn't rub badly. Your boots will break in after a bit of wear...I usually wear mine 24/7 for a few weeks until they feel like old friends. If your leather boots are loose when you get them or fit perfectly out the box, know they are going to stretch and mold to your foot and may or may not be too big or start rubbing as they do. A boot that feels a bit tight to get on in the ankle area and a little stiff on is going to relax into a great fit. Ok, I ordered the Cognac Stone Wash and the distressed dark brown. I have to say they are both amazingly gorgeous boots of two different flavors. I'm keeping the cognac. I'd keep both if my wallet allowed. The cognac is perfectly distressed on the outside...they look like you've inherited them from your John Wayne grandfather, but better. The dark brown is a beautiful full-grain leather with minor reddish-toned variations. They are much dressier and polished. A final note...I have very athletic calves. The regular Veronica slouch might not fit you like you expect if you have legs like me. My naked calves measure about 15 inches around at their widest so the Veronica doesn't do much slouching. I certainly can fit my skinny jeans or leggings in there but there isn't room to spare. I'm hoping down the road to either get the shaft stretched by a cobbler or broken in enough so that I can wear thick socks over my skinny jeans with the boots. If you like the way these look, order them. I know everyone says that, but they are timeless and soft and amazing!

Just rec'd them and put them right back out in the mail for return. They run small. I always wear an 8.5 these were tight with thin socks on. They also hit the unflattering part of your calf area of your leg. Just not cute for that price.

Note Zappos did a great job with this order, my issues pertain to the quality of the boots themselves. I am a long-time loyal Frye customer. I have 3 pairs of woman's Frye boots that I have diligently cared for, (replacing soles when necessary) in exchange for years of long comfortable wear; the Calvary, the Harness and a vintage pair of the Campus. After returning a pair of Martina engineer's for being at least 1 size too small, I ordered these, the Veronica slouch. These were also rather tight in the right foot (I even went up to an 8.5 this time), and the finish is awful. I ordered the black full-grain leather and it looks like the toe boxes were violently distressed with a wire brush. Also the streaking of the dye on the legs seemed like a defect. (I contacted Frye, they suspect so as well). The buckle at the top of the calf was extremely flimsy and a different color than the buckle at the bottom. The leather of the top strap was poorly sewn and beginning to separate, right out of the box. I am undecided about trying again. All of my other Frye's are made in the US, I'm wondering if that is the difference that is causing me such problems-- other people don't seem to be having problems, perhaps I am expecting a different manufacturing standard based on my past purchases. According to Frye The harness, engineer and Calvary styles are part of their 'core' product line, and all manufactured in the US.
I'd also recommend: Frye calvary, harness, campus styles.

ABSOLUTELY stunning although far darker in real life. I had to return to save my pennies for spring/summer shoes but will re-order in the fall!

Okay, my wide-calf sisters! I've been drooling over Veronicas for well over a year now, but could never find any concrete reviews as to whether these would fit my 17-inch gams. Well, I finally finally finally decided to take the plunge and purchased these in the Stone Stonewashed color. And they are on my feet right this minute. They fit just fine over leggings, and also over not-quite-skinny-legged jeans. They even do that cute roll-over thing that I've seen photos of stars doing. ;) Hooray! Now, I am about 5'8", and have long legs. The boots only reach to about 4.5" below the bottom of my kneecaps--so they aren't actually tall enough to make it all the way to the widest point of my calves. But they look great, no "calf muffin top," as I've heard it so eloquently put! The shaft measurement on the size 10 appears to be about 16.5". I should note, I did actually try on the zip-back Veronica Slouch in a department store recently, and they were a total no-go. The shafts are definitely slimmer on those. My only question now is whether I should keep this color or trade it in for another, more wearable-everyday color. But I'm so glad I finally got the courage to order these! You should, too! They're freaking beautiful!

Love these boots! They are very true to size and I love the color. The only drawback to the color that I bought is that I would like them to stay that color. They appear to have a chalky residue on them to make them that color but as you wear them, it comes off. I actually bought them because of the color and I am disappointed that it rubs off over time. Other than this though...I love the boots and they are very comfy!
