little country-little rock n' roll - the best of everything-fit, comfort, quality, and style. While they are easy to pair-up with casual because of the elongated front they look great with dress pants. Am always complimented whenever I wear them.

ShoeHorse - I absolutely love my Frye Mules!! Thanks to the reviews and postings of the shoe, I knew to order a half size smaller which worked out perfectly for me. Also, be aware these shoes are kinda heavy and require getting used to; so be sure to allow some time to break them in before you go out to kick up your heels. If you're considering purchasing these mule/boots, wait no longer and take the plunge! You'll be happy you did. And there is NO better place to buy than Zappos ... completely professional, courteous and FAST!!! I'm a very satisfied customer!

Frye's Belted Harness Mule - These are the greatest shoes and very comfortable too! I searched everywhere for them and ZAPPOS.com was the only place I could find them. ZAPPOS delivered the shoes the very next day, I will definitely be doing business again with ZAPPOS. Thanks, Dani Teeter

I ordered these last night and they were on my doorstep this morning!!! How do they do that! And I love these shoes. I'm not sure which I like better with jeans-these or my Frye Romy ring boots!!! In these I bought my normal shoe size and they fit perfectly.

Great shoes, fantastic service - Ordered these shoes on Wed., got them on Fri.! Fast and fab. service! These are comfortable and look sharp! I have a high instep and was doubtful these would fit, but they are the best fitting clog type shoes I've ever owned. Very roomy. Sizes very so much with different shoes so I,m hesitant to say that they run big. I also have the belted harness boots, which don't have the tapered heel. These are actually more comfortable width wise.

Chunky mule - I really like the look of this "clog". It is a heavy clog to wear though, but more comfortable than a full height boot.

Love my Harness Mules - I work in the mountains of Colorado, where it is snowy and slippery, and these mules hold their own. I felt that they ran true to size, but I noticed slight variations in fit, mostly width, so it pays to try on a few pair if you don't feel 100% comfortable.

Love these clog/boot - I love these! I knew about Frye Years and Years ago but they never had anything like this, I am a clog person and I love these. You don't walk out of them, they work well with all type of clothing. The leather worked itself within about 2 wearings, they conform to your foot like magic!! I did buy a 1/2 less 9 1/2 then I usually wear.

I love these shoes! These shoes look so good with bootcut jeans. Very comfortable, and very well made. I bought these after buying the Frye Harness boots, they're all I wear now! Oh, one more thing: I will probably buy most of my shoes from Zappos from now on. They are a great company!

Frye's Belted Harness Mule - These are absolutely the best shoes of their type around. The quality is impeccable especially compared with many imports costing more. I have both the black and now the chestnut brown, which is a nice rich color. I travel frequently all around the world and they go with me every time. Almost every time the airport security people ask me where I got my shoes (you do have to take them off to go through most detectors!) since they're not sold in a lot of retail outlets. I always say Zappos! The mules are a bit heavier than most so they may seem clunky on hardwood floors; however they support your feet very well and you can walk forever all day in them without discomfort. I just wish Frye would make a true higher heel version of these mules in black or brown for dressier occasions - the version they have (which I ordered and returned) is an import with nowhere near the same quality or fit.

Cool look clog - I have admired Frye boots for a long time. This was not the ordinary clog. It runs about a half size larger than my usual shoe size. It is heavier than a Dansko clog, but it looks so-o-o good with boot cut jeans. Kinda motorcycle cool with a touch of cowgirl. I like them and will probably buy the full boot next.

Just what I wanted - Somewhere along the line, I decided I needed a pair of "kick-a$$" boots and figured out that meant I wanted the heel of a cowboy boot. Nothing else gives you that sway. I'm not a boot person, though; because I have large calves. This was a perfect solution. They were just a little snug at first, but being leather, I knew they would loosen up. And they have. Love the free shipping. It was the deciding factor in where to order them from.

Love this shoe - I tried a pair of the Frye motorcycle boots, which didn't fit. I have a very high arch and I wide instep. For some weird reason, the mules fit perfectly. Very cool with long skinny jeans and vintage sweater. Broke in after a couple of wearings. Works kind of like a funky Dansko clog.

These shoes were very heavy and seemed a size larger than marked. The quality was superior and the shoes were attractive looking, but I will have to return them because it feels like there are weights on my feet. Not for a slight build.

Gorgeous shoe! Wow- right out of the box it was super comfy- the reviews are correct: I had to order a 1/2 size smaller (I'm usually between 7- 7-1/2) and had to go with a 6-1/2. The craftsmanship on this mule is extraordinary, and it looks even better in person than online. I hesitated to spend so much on a mule, but as the other reviews said, these should (truly) last a lifetime. My only issue with this mule is the back fit- hopefully the 'harness' strap will keep it from falling off? That's the only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5. This is rock star-quality!!

Nice design, great with jeans, and comfortable, but a little loose - walking around took some practice at first. Definitely go down in size.

Beautiful shoe and very well made. Unfortunately, I followed the advice by some other readers and ordered down a half size. Well, they are too small and have to go back. They also feel somewhat narrow, but then again I do have a slightly wide foot. I'm thinking I will reorder them in a larger size because they are so nice/well made.

Nice shoe - I really like the look of this shoe, but since I have a wide foot, they were a little snug at first. After a few wearings, though, they fit pretty well. I like the ease of a clog with the look of a boot a lot!

Frye Mule - This boot clog is very stylish...I love the look. Because of the sturdy nature of the build of the clog, it is not the most comfortable clog I have; give it some time for breaking in. It is, however, the much more comfortable than the boot, which I tried first.

Frye Belted Harness Mule - I am surprised at how heavy these shoes are, compared to my other pairs of cowboy boots. I have both J. Chisholm and Donald J Pliner cowboy boots that are at least half the weight of these mules. And, although I am a perfect size 6 in other domestic brands, these were a half size larger.

Felt like I had lead weights on my feet. Very stiff, narrow and heavy/clunky. I can't imagine these would be comfortable. Perhaps when they are broken in, but by then my feet would be a mess. I was expecting more comfort since it was a clog/bootie style. Returning them for sure.

Dashed fantasy - I drooled over this Frye clog for about a year before ordering it. Loved the look when it arrived, but when I tried it on, walking felt like a workout with ankle weights. It was plenty big enough, but caused my feet to fall asleep and my toes to cramp. End of cool shoe fantas, SIGH!
