This is a pair of gorgeous boots, but not for wide feet or those who prefer a wide width shoe. I normally wear an 8W or 7.5 W although my feet are relatively thin. I went with the 7.5 medium which is the right size in length but just too narrow with thin or thick socks. I felt as if my feet were being squashed from both sides and my toes were rubbing on the top. The boot itself has a very narrow appearance at the front which I did not like. If you have wide feet or like wide-width shoes, this is not for you.

I have a bit of a boot collection and these are my favorites. I've wanted them for years and my only regret is not purchasing sooner. I thought they would look weird on my narrow calf which is most of why I held off but they look fine. I went a half size down and they were a bit narrow in the toes with thicker socks but they are quickly breaking in very nicely. I'm happy with the size choice & I look forward to many fine years with these beauties.

I've had these boots for 8 years. They look brand new. I have worn them on job sites (I'm a civil engineer), with dresses, with jeans, and they are still amazing. I am usually a 9 in Frye but with these I had to go with an 8 1/2. Also, they are probably the heaviest of all my Frye boots, so try these on before purchasing if you're sensitive to weighty boots. The leather is so tough that I don't think these will ever wear out. I've had them reheeled once. It is a heavy, quality boot that is SO worth the purchase.

I bought my first pair of Frye boots in 2002 and still to this day they look as good as they did the day I got them. Excellent quality and very well made and made to last in the USA. These boots will probably out last me! Look great with jeans in the fall and winter months. Even though I don’t wear skirts I have seen ladies who do wear these with skirts. These boots are just all around badassery!! Buy a pair you won’t regret it!

Received these boots as a birthday gift. They look great and I hope to have them forever. They are a little narrow and I am hoping that with time they loosen up. They are otherwise comfortable and I didn't expect to like them as much as I do! I had to size down a half size.

This is my second pair of Frye harness boots. My others are over 8 years old and just keep getting better. The calf of these new ones was much tighter than my old pair but they are stretching quickly to be more comfortable. I love these shoes.

It’s 2018. I bought these in 2007... it’s a shame, because these are MY FAVORITE FOOTWEAR.
I don’t think I own any shoe older than this, yet these still earn compliments on a regular basis.
They are the next best thing to house slippers, literally. SO comfortable.
I had them re-soled once, get then polished regularly, wear them primarily as my first choice with jeans during fall/winter/spring (really - just when I can’t wear flip flops).
You can’t go wrong here.
Pro tip: if you’re wearing your boots while traveling, it’s a sin to skip a boot polish in terminal B at Denver. Your boots and feet will thank you!

I've had these for years... Wear them probably 75% of the time I leave the house through all seasons! So comfortable and really go with anything, dress them up or down. I will keep buying these for life (not that you need to because they're so well made they last forever).

These boots are stylish and functional. I usually buy a size 7.5 in Frye boots but these felt about 1/2 size big. I’m keeping them to see how they work with thick socks. If I develop a blister, I will return for a size 7.

I love these boots. They’re well made, durable and I love how they look. This is the second time I’ve purchased them, this time in a different color. I do tend to order a half size up for Frye boots, e.g., I’m typically a size 8 but I ordered an 8.5 and they fit perfectly.

I bought these as a gift to myself for losing weight. I normally wear a 7.5 and I bought a 1/2 size up so I could wear thick socks with them. No regrets. These boots were a bit stiff in the beginning. I read where someone had a lump in the sole of theirs. To be honest mine were a bit flat and hard so I placed arch supports in the soles. Easy fix. These boots are everything I hope they would be and more. I have worn them at least 5 times and I have had no blisters, pain, or issues. I look forward to many years of wearing them.

I have had these boots for about 1 year now. They get better with age. They are super comfortable and they go with everything! I get compliments every single time I wear them. Give them a try, you will love them!!

Gorgeous boots but couldn't get them on. There is no adjustment of the straps around the ankle and I just could not get my foot in because it was so tight in that area, and stiff. Sorry, I have to return them..

I have been wanting these for so long and they did not disappoint! They are a little snug at first in the foot but stretch out the more you wear them! I got the color tan and they were lighter than they looked in the pictures but overall great!

I got these for Christmas and I order them In the tan color. When I got them they looked nothing like the color in the picture online. They came in this really ugly light tan color.

I wanted these boots fir a long time but was hesitant because I have a wide foot. Wish I'd bought them sooner. They are very comfortable & I love how I feel wearing them. Would definitely recommend them!

Purchased these black Harness 12R for my daughter for Christmas. They were on the top of her Wish List. She's worn the same boots in brown for at least ten years; they are her "go to" boots all broken in, soft and supple. She wears them with jeans, pants, leggings, skirts, and dresses, and they look great with everything. A treasured classic.

This boot is absolutely beautiful!! Love the style, love the color, love everything about it... except the width. Holy moly, I've never had a boot foot so narrow on my foot. I don't have wide feet, but my poor toes were screaming. So sad, such beautiful boots.

These are very cool, fit my arch great, I have kinda high arches.
A little loose in the heel afraid of blisters.

Stunning pair of boots! I wear a 6.5. As with my other Frye boots, I order down half a size. The 6 is a tad snug but I'll get them broken in and they'll fit like a glove

I ordered these a 1/2 size smaller than what I originally ordered to compare (8.5 & 9 - I usually wear a 9). I have to say the quality of the leather was different and the color was almost an entire different shade of the ones I was comparing them to (same color, tan, but in a size 9). I am returning these and sticking to the original size I ordered. Also, I paid for one day shipping but they didn't arrive till 10 pm two days after I placed the order.

Love the quality of this boot! The leather is soft. Unfortunately, I had a very difficult time getting my foot in and, once I did, the 9 was too big. Think I need a zippered boot.

These are beautiful boots! Well-crafted, classic style that will go with everything. I wish I could've kept mine, but they were too small and narrow. Thanks to Zappos excellent customer service, sending them back was easy.
