These are super comfortable boots. Classic "Dingo" look that doubles as as motorcycle boot for my harley.

Chocolate Brown- These are the best boots I ever had hands down-- comfortable and great looking. I did have the boots cut down by 2 inches because they rode higher than my boot-socks (they 8Rs get caught below the cuff of my jeans after sitting because they are too short.) So now they are 10R I guess- which I think is the perfect height !!!

Awesome! Great color - rugged distressed look. Arrived fast from Zappos. Feels to run true to size. I wear 10.5 running and dress shoe but got an 11 to accommodate insoles. Glad I did. They are so comfortable with insoles and creates a nice fit.

Have had many pairs of boots including Fryes. Never had a pair that felt basically broken in the first time I put them on. They look GREAT,fit like they were custom made for me. Fryes don't usually feel this way out of the box. I'm a happy camper.

I used to sell these for a small, family owned shoe store, my manager owned a pair and I eye balled buying a pair for the longest time. Finally, after I had the money, I bought a pair. This is not only my go to boot, but my go to pair of shoes. I wear them at least 4-5 times a week. I wear them outside of work for my current job, but I look forward to casual Fridays so I can wear my 12r's. They're crafted with amazing craftsmanship. It's a great feeling knowing that the boot on my feet are crafted in America with the craftsman/craftswomanship hard working people. These boots are comfortable with lots of arch support. That initial "pop into place" fit when sliding these bad boys on my feet is the true definition of how quality boots should fit. I look forward to my next pair... though it will be a while. I've had these two years and they are still in great shape. The soles are holding up great, too. My plan is to have them re-soled and buy a new pair both.

My first pair was back in 69, went with me to serve my country in a foreign land. Had every thing from A-Z pass over the leather. Was cleaning out the attic and we all couldn't believe our eyes to my surprise still had them a little worse for wear and a little tight. So Christmas is right around the corner, guna upgrade this time even though I'm on a fixed income. As the saying goes "He died with his boots on"

I bought a pair in brown and a pair in black over 15 years ago and they just keep getting better. Other than new heels and soles after many years, they are sturdy and more comfortable then when I bought them. True to size.

Love these boots. The coloration of the leather is just beautiful and the fit nicely (although they run a half size large). Extremely comfortable, very well made, and very attractive boots.

Mine were a little darker than the Zappos photos, but I love them. Very comfortable and look great. FYI: I'm not sure you should use the recommended Frye conditioner on these. I think the chocolate leather needs a different one. Haven't figured that out yet. Love them though. Fryes are the best.

I love these boots! I feel like I need to be the cautionary tale for women with larger than average calves, though. My right calf measures 17" in diameter and upon initial wear the top of the boot muffin topped my leg a little. I took them to a cobbler for a stretch and they are much better now. I plan to love these boots for a long time, but in retrospect I probably should have opted for a lower height.

It is important to realize the difference between stated sizes and actual sizes. Unfortunately what passes for a size 10, for instance, with one company may prove significantly different with another company. That's just a cautionary note. I love Frye boots; and, although I had to replace the first pair due to the size issue, I got it right the next time and I couldn't be more pleased. For those in the know, Zappos will get it right for you and make it easy getting there too. The second pair were sent immediately and without having the first pair returned beforehand. Good job, Zappos! You understand good business practices means consideration for your customers.

Great Boots - They are pretty tight the first time you put them on, but just wear them for a little while and they break-in nicely. These are the first boots I have owned since I was pretty young, but I will definitely buy more Fryes. They look amazing.

Excellent - The shoes were ordered at the request of my 16 year old. He looked at them locally but could not get this particular color. He loves them. They fit well and the Zappos.com delivery was remarkably fast.

Only Frye Boots - I recently purchased Frye's 12R harness in Brown Rage color and 12R Belted boots in Chestnut Brown and they are both good looking and comfortable. No break in required and the quality of the leather is excellent. Very soft! If you have a pair of boot cut jeans, then you have to get these Frye boots. In terms of service, Zappos provided an excellent performance in shipping these shoes. Always on time! More power to Zappos.

Great look and feel! I wear a size 17 in every other shoe I wear so it's not easy to find boots in my size. I bought the size 16 and to my surprise they were a little big on me. Other than that they look great and I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

From Ruth, in Denver, CO - I bought these as a holiday gift for my partner. He just LOVES them! He has worn them all over, everywhere we have gone, since he got them. He says they are totally comfortable and a real pleasure to wear. AND he is a Birkenstock man! I am just happy that we've had cold enough weather for boots. He says "thanks to Zappos!"

5 star review for Frye Harness 12R - Bought these for Christmas present... my son couldn't wait that long. Beautifully crafted, the gaucho colour was perfect for a university age student. My son said that he likes the style and the fit is perfect. Warm woolen socks are required to withstand the cold winter. We would buy these again!

I got this shoe in the Gaucho color, and absolutely love it. It took some getting used to, since it's a very high boot with more of a heel than I'm used to, but it's very comfortable. Felt a bit narrower than most shoes initially, but loosened up after a day of wearing them around. Definitely love the look, and definitely recommend this shoe! Seems like great quality and that it will last forever!

Frye boots - These boots are great. This is my first pair of Frye boots but it definitely will not be the last. New boots are usually a little stiff but these are comfortable to wear right out of the box. The service from Zappos was also excellent.
