Customer Reviews Frye Harness 12R

I am so happy with this purchase. The boots were comfortable the first day I wore them and I have worn them almost everyday since.

Total Comfort! I ended up walking a mile and a half in them unexpectedly 3 days after purchase. I couldn't believe it, no sore feet or blisters. Total comfort! Customer for life!

Just not what I expected. A bit too worn looking for my liking.

Smoke color would have been great but the shoes looked brown

I absolutely love this boot! I was surprised at how comfortable it is, and I love the color! I get compliments on this boot all the time. My husband, who is a leather boot fanatic, said this is some of the nicest leather he has seen. I highly recommend this boot!

I purchased these boots when I was doing a lot of horse back riding. They are rugged and tough and COMFORTABLE. I wear them now for casual outings and I think they must be indestructible. No wonder Frye has been around forever. Thanks for making great products!

So comfortable from the start!! Wear them nearly every day! Look great with pants tucked in or worn on outside!! Not sure why it took me so long to splurge!! Very sturdy so am sure will enjoy these for a good long time!!

After browsing around for harness boots I decided to make an investment to a good pair of leather boots. I bought them in the tan and the picture doesn't do the color justice. It's more of a rugged worn tan and it's beautiful. I personally have a wide toe box so I ordered up a size and they fit like a dream. Now I just need to wait a few months and buy the 8r style as well.

I've been tromping around in a pair of charcoal gray harness 12rs for several months now. I have several pair of Fryes (all from the made in USA collection) and these are my second favorites. The boot has enough edge to add visual interest, but also somehow works as a neutral when I need it to. The leather is oiled and shows markings easily, which I prefer. This is not a delicate fashion boot, though I think it has loads of style. This is a boot you can trust. Your car breaks down and you have to walk 2 miles to the nearest service station? You can do it in these boots. You need to keep up with your young children - you can do it in these boots. You need to flee an ax murderer, you can do it in these boots. You need comfortable boots that look great with skirts, shorts, and jeans (be they bootcut or skinny) - again, these boots. I think if I had started out with these and my Engineer 12rs I could have quit there. They are my two all-time favorites and serve my every need. I read the reviews (of which there are many) prior to my purchase, and everyone says they only get better with age. If you look, you will find images of Frye harness boots in various stages of disrepair because their owners have become so attached to them that they refuse to give them up. In a world where everything is disposable, the idea of long-lasting, high-quality boots with sentimental value appeals to me in spades. Give these and the Engineers a try.

I just received these boots today and all i can say is...I'm so happy I bought them. Feel and look great! Thanks for making these unique boots. Oh BTW, the leather smells phenomenonal.

I've had the 8R for years, certainly the most comfortable of my fryes, but a bit too short for my taste. I bought the the 12R but was totally unsatisfied until I traded up from the 77300 to the 77298. The latter's leather is much richer and more beautifil, and it wears quite beautifully as well. I have my everyday boot now, most happily, for fall, winter, and spring. Totally gorgeous... and tough!

I have been stalking these boots online for weeks and decided I had to have them. I received them yesterday and they are awesome! Color tan is true to the picture online. I wear a size 9M and I ordered my size based on other reviews and they fit just right. Can't wait for fall so I can wear them regularly. I am going to order the Smith Engineer Shorts next! Love these boots!!! If you are on the fence....just do it!!

I bought these in 1998 and still wear them today. They conformed beautifully to my feet and have taken every kind of weather under the sun. I love them. I wear them less now that I bought a pair of Engineer 15Rs that I also love, but they will always be my faves. I still get comments on them.

I live in these boots and where them with everything from jeans to dainty dresses.
