Phenomenal boots. I grabbed these when I saw the price - this is a pretty sick deal for Frye boots. They look and feel fantastic.
I take a 9.5 or 10 (usually 9.5) depending on the brand. I took the advice on the Frye website which says if you are between sizes order a half size up. I'm glad I did because these are the right size and even needed some breaking in to stretch them. Note: I did the same thing with the Engineer 12R; I ordered a size 10, and it's clear that 9.5 would have been too small.

These boots are such an amazing deal, the quality and fit is so worth the price. I have been looking for this particular style for a while and couldn't find it until I checked Zappos and was shocked how affordable the boots are. I own several pairs of Fryes and these are now my favorite. Great craftsmanship, comfortable, and durable.

They are Frye and they meet that expectation. Beautiful leather and while fit was a little snug they are absolutely breaking in and feel great. Anticipating having these for many years (and replacing a pair of Frye’s that I had for over 30 years).

Theses boots... Man. These boots.
Something about Frye boots and the 12R's in particular has been calling me for the longest time. I attached meaningless milestones to things as an excuse. "Oh, I'll get a good pair of Frye's when I lose 10 lbs." Yeah, that didn't happen. But these boots just kept calling to me. Then they went on sale.
"What do you need boots for? You don't ride a motorcycle, you're not a cowboy. You're a project manager."
"I KNOW THAT SUSAN, BUT THE DOG HAS A FUR COAT AND YOU STILL BOUGHT HIM A SWEATER. I'M GETTING THE [ ] BOOTS."
I bought the boots. They're made in the US, they're thick textured leather and I feel like my beard grew an inch and a half the minute I put my feet into them. Wait, when did I get a beard? They're distressed so you'll never need to polish them, and that just screams character. They smell like grit and experience. They're easily the most solid pair of footwear in my suddenly insufferable apartment. I need to be outside right now. I'm gonna rebuild the engine in the Volvo. I'm gonna take a Citibike for a 25 mile ride. Make that 50. I'm gonna make something for dinner instead of ordering a pizza. I'm gonna fire the dog walker and take Archibald out myself.
Little tight in the outside of the right toes though.

I ordered a half size smaller than I wear. I would recommend that you do that. I'm glad I did they fit perfectly.

I asked my cobbler for a recommendation as he is a third generation running his shop and has been my guy for 17 years. I am so glad I took his advice. These boots are everything I expected them to be. Off course for me the first trip out of the house was a motorcycle ride with a night hopping from place to place. the boots fit great and no discomfort dancing and shooting pool.

I bought my first pair of Frye Boot in !970 and I am still wearing them: 14 R Cognac-colored leather harness boots. Right after these new wax-suede 12 Rs arrived I took my dog for a 2 hour walk. It was like the new boots were completely broken in before they arrived at my house! They fit perfectly

These boots were extraordinarily comfortable right out of the box, Being made of waxed suede leather might account for this. The vintage look took me months of wear with the pair of Frye boots I purchased back in the 70s, with this pair I had that look right out of box...and made in the USA to boot, pun intended.

Wear these boots on a concrete foot for 8 hours a day and they rock. They fit like a soft leather glove but are sturdy as any boots I've ever worn. Frye simply makes the best boots

I've waited to review these until I had some time in them. Breeding season on the ranch is definitely the opportunity to find out how well a boot is made and after four months they look as good as they did fresh out of the box, my feet feel great at the end of the day, and most importantly they have held up to the abuse they get on an every other day basis. They have survived mud, dust, rocks, manure, and the rank mares that have stepped on my feet while fighting the lead rope. My first pair of Frye boots definitely won't be my last!

I have been wearing Frye Boots for years. I was wearing a pair when I saw Jimi Hendrix perform at the Grande Ballroom, Detroit, Michigan in 1968. I plan on being buried wearing a pair.

I bought this boot over 8 years ago and it has been my 'go to' boot ever since. By far one of the most iconic American boot silhouettes that will stand the test of time. Looking forward to another 8+ years of rugged style and comfort.

Frye boots tend to run big. These books look sexy and the fabrication is great. A cushioned sole would be the only improvement I'd ask for.

I bought these boots, look great, felt great ... on one foot. I mail-ordered 2 pair, intending to return 1, because it was my first pair of Frye Boots and didn't know what size I needed, no local shops near by to try them on. Turns out, I need an 11 on one foot and a 10.5 on the other. Sadly, they were both returned, just not meant to be.

These boots are sharp. Bought cause I liked the look and they are stated to be AMERICAN MADE Had to return as the right boot felt way to tight on the right foot but the left fit and felt fine, as if there was an error in making the right boot. Not offered in wide and don't want to upsize as I feel they would be to long and rub to much at the heel. Now I'm left looking as not to many options in the wide sizes as far as looks. Not sure on my next move.

These are my 4th pair of Frye boots. I have 2 issues with them. 1. They are a much tighter fit than my other 3 pair. I'm hoping they break in as they currently hurt my feet. 2. They are much more distressed than the picture shows. So distressed they are almost white looking. I regret my purchase.
