Customer Reviews Frye Harness 12R

15 years and going strong - I've owned my pair of Frye Harness boots since I was a grad student in NY in 1993. I was tickled to read in the Wall Street Journal that they're making a "fashionable" come back... I've traipsed all over in them and they fit me like a glove. I've gotten many comments on how cool they are from the "younger" crowd.

Great, quality boot - My feet aren't wide, but they're definitely a solid medium width. I originally ordered a 1/2 size down, but then exchanged for my regular size especially since I want to wear at least a thin sock with them. I think if you have narrow feet, you'd be fine ordering a 1/2 size down. The heel definitely is a little looser, but these boots look and feel great!

Love them! The service from Zappos is above and beyond any other company! The boots fit great. I wear a 7 1/2 shoe so I ordered a 7 boot. They were a bit snug but have since loosened up to a perfect fit. I originally bought these because I hurt my foot. After getting my cast removed, my doctor wanted me to transition to a walking cast. Being somewhat vain I opted to try the boots. They arrived the same day the cast came off. I tried them on and felt like my feet had gone to heaven. My doctor gave me the OK to wear them instead of his orthopedic boot because they are snug and give the needed support. I love them.

Awesome - These boots are exactly what I expected. Beautiful! I got the gold ones, and they are a gorgeous color! They were really hard to put on at first, especially the right one. I thought I'd never get it on. But with a lot of stomping, I managed. Overall, great boot. They are individually hand made, so it’s to be expected that each foot would fit a little differently. Love them. Stick with your normal size!

Very happy with my Fryes!!!!! I was very impressed with how quick the boots were delivered!!!! I bought a 1/2 size smaller than I normally would because of the other reviews, and they fit quite nicely but I think, if I were to order another pair I would go with my normal size. I just need to work them in a bit!!!!

Normally I wear between a 7.5 and an 8, and after reading all the reviews, I finally decided to order the 7. Felt like the ugly stepsister trying to get them on my feet at first, but once you're in they're super comfy (and surprisingly easy to take off)! The calf area is slim enough to not be bulky under jeans. Decided to buy these after seeing a show on TV where they visited the Frye factory in Arkansas where many of their boots are still made by hand-- you can tell these are really high quality and will last for a long time!

Big shoe, big comfort!!!! Wow, they are so comfortable, I love them!!!!

Awesome Boots! I have been buying Frye Boots for years. These boots have the quality and styling I expect from Frye. Normally I would wear Frye Boots in an 8, however, this boot I ordered in a 7.5 and it fits perfectly.

Frye book review - after reading other reviews of this boot, I ordered 1/2 size down and have to push past the ankle restrictions but then they fit PERECTLY and they soften with wear and come off easily! LOVE these boots - lots of comments from friends!! Extremely comfortable.

Don't let the looks fool you - This boot is really cute. I am a boot fanatic and I wear these all the time but even in comparison with more pointy toed cow-girl boots there is not much room for your toes. It isn't unbearable and if you have slender feet it shouldn't be a problem.

Love this boot!!! I love the look, fit and versatility of this boot. I had been looking for a pair of boots for a long time, and kept coming back to the Frye Harness. After reading the reviews, I was convinced to give it a try. I ordered my true size, and I love the fit. It slipped a bit in the heel at first, but I think that is typical to this style of boot. It's gotten better, and I could probably eliminate it completely with thicker socks. I live in Houston, so I wanted something a little bit country, but not a true cowboy boot. This boot is awesome. I wore it to a rock concert and a rodeo in the first week, and it was equally appropriate for both. Love this boot!

Great boot. I normally wear an 8 but with the conflicting recommendations about the size, I went to the mall and tried both an 8 and 71/2. The fit was the same thru the toe box. Kinda tight. However the 8 seemed to slip a little more in the heel so I went with the 71/2. I prefer my shoes a little on the snug side and wearing thin socks, so the 71/2 was perfect. Like other reviews said, the boot is a little tedious to get on and off at first but very comfortable once on. Fun and comfortable to wear, well made, with a tough and sexy look.

Frye Harness Boots, and Zappos ROCK! Awesome competitive pricing, first quality boot, shipped overnight.............who wouldn't love them?! I sure do!

Great boots! I love these boots and they were quite easy to break in - I suggest to wear them for just an hour or 2 at a time for a couple days. I am a size 7, which I initially ordered, even though I read the reviews that said they ran big. Of course, I ended up sending back the 7s for a 6.5. Zappos had them there NEXT DAY for both orders even though I placed the orders so close to 4pm - quite amazing, I must say. I think I found my new favorite website.

My New Boots - These are great boots. They are a little uncomfortable because I have a wide foot and it is taking a while to stretch but other than that they look fabulous. I know they'll feel fabulous as soon as I break them in!

Gorgeous! I got these in antique gold, and the color is AMAZING -- the gold is striking and fun without being obnoxious. The boots are very comfortable as long as I wear thick enough socks that cover my ankles (otherwise the boots tend to rub against my toes and outside ankles a bit). Thick-ish socks also help the heel from slipping. The sole is great and they've been good for walking around on snow and ice -- they have better traction than the Frye Campus boots.

Great boots - I love these boots. I normally wear either a 7 or a 7.5, depending on the shoe. I got size 7, and they are perfect. Your heel will slip a little in the boot, but that is so you can get them on and off. (I called Frye and they said that's how they're supposed to fit.)

Favorites! These are the most comfortable boots I own. I have them in Tan also, but the Black are more comfortable. The black leather is more supple. I thought that they were a little too big at first (I ordered in my usual size), but now that I have worn them for awhile, they seem perfect! They go with everything! Zappos service terrific as usual.

Love em'! These are the boots I've been wanting since I was 12 years old. They go with everything, boot cuts, skinny's, mini's and swingy skirts. Comfy and durable.

Frye's harness boots - I absolutely LOVE these boots!!!! Yes, in the beginning they are HARD to get on AND OFF, but really who cares! I'm getting the hang of it. They are Fabulous and look great with whatever. I researched these before ordering to make sure these are what I wanted and I'm so glad I did. Zappos is the best for online ordering. Geez and free s/h!!! Can't beat that anywhere. I ordered the tan and they are getting that used look. The best thing about these boots is that they'll never be out of style like most boots so they are worth the price. I highly recommend these to anybody that loves boots. You'll never want to wear any others!!! I ordered size 8 and they fit fine.

I was really surprised... I NEVER thought these boots would be comfortable for my feet. My toes do not like anything but Birkenstocks and flip flops. These boots are actually comfortable and I feel really cool (I know that sounds silly) wearing them. I recently wore them for a whole weekend trip (walked over 7 miles in them) and was only a little sore. Highly recommended! I will say that I normally wear a size 9 and the 8.5 that I ordered fit perfect.

Fabulous! I have four pairs of Frye boots and the Harness boot is my favorite. ALL boots run a half size larger than shoes unless they are a cheap boot, which Frye certainly isn't. I also love the comfortable shaft, being not too wide to accommodate tree trunk legs nor too narrow for people with average legs. Just right. A medium width, I would say. I would highly recommend these boots to anyone who wants style, comfort and durability. You get what you pay for. You can never go wrong with Zappos either! Fastest, easiest way to shop! Free shipping both ways, if you decide they aren't for you or need a different size.

Frye rocks!! Oh my god....these boots are so totally awesome. The leather is so rich. They look so good when I got them, that I ordered a pair for my husband. They are worth every penny and them some.

Best Boots Ever!! I have been wearing these boots non-stop since I received them. They do run 1/2 size small so I had to return the 81/2 and re-order the 8. I would highly recommend these boots to everybody!!

Love this boot!! I have never owned a pair of western style boots but had seen them on a couple of girls at work who both raved about how comfortable they are so I decided to go for it. I thought the sizing was dead on. They are perfect if you are a woman with muscular calves like me. They hit just below the fullest point of my leg. Price was in line with department stores. Zappos is the best!
