Founded in 1863 by John A. Frye, a well-to-do shoemaker from England, and family-run until 1945, Frye products have a long and illustrious history. Frye boots were worn by soldiers on both sides of America's Civil War, soldiers in the Spanish-American war, and by Teddy Roosevelt and his Rough Riders. When home-steading drew adventurous New England families to the West during the mid and late 1800's many of the pioneers wore Frye Boots for the long journey. Today Frye remains true to its roots with its line of heritage boots, but continues to innovate as it introduces chic new handbags, pumps, and sandals to its collection.

  • Love these boots!!!
Size: 10 Color: Black - Crust Laredo
Excellent quality and craftsmanship! Love the genuine, good quality, all-leather construction. The rubber heel reinforcement is in the perfect place to help protect the sole from wear. Sturdy, good quality materials used in the stitching. They fit great, break in quickly, are very comfortable, and look fabulous! These boots go with everything, from blue jeans and shorts, to dresses. I added a pair of shearling and wool insoles to these boots, and they're perfect. Best investment and value! Arrived well packaged and quickly. ... show more

  • Nothing Compares to a Frye Boot
I purchased these boots after spending many weeks researching boots that were moderately priced, classically designed, and durable enough to last for many years. Hands down I kept returning to the Frye brand. I owned a pair back in the 70's that were resoled many times because they were so comfortable and form fitted to my feet. I only gave them up some 25 years later because my feet flattened and they became too small. Since then, I have purchased many different boots but none were as durable or comfortable as my Frye's. I ordered the antiqued black leather simply because they were about $100 less than the regular black. I simply applied some thick black leather polish and while there are still some crinkles in the shaft leather, they look every bit as good as the other. I ordered them in my regular shoe size 9 and while they are a bit roomy in the foot, a heavier pair of socks fills them in adequately. The leather is beautiful, thick, top quality and the stitching is done in a heavy thread. The sole is also made of leather so can be a bit slippery until roughed up. The lining and footbed are very soft and comfortable and the brass buttoned pull ons make it easy to pull them on. The shaft is adequate for an average woman's calf. The styling is traditional and while stylish will never go out of style. I wear them to walk the dog, shop, and evenings out. They are the perfect compliment to every outfit! There are many riding style boots on the market but I'm sure these will keep on "walking" long after other boots hit the landfill. I did waterproof them as we live in the northeast where it rains a great deal in the fall and spring and winters are wet and snowy. I had them on last night after several inches of snow and sleet fell and my feet stayed warm and dry. A must have for every quality conscious woman! ... show more

  • Beautiful boots...from a distance
I've been a loyal Frye wearer for at least 7 years, and owned other Melissas, Veronica, Olive, Carson, Dara, Campus and some others. While I'm not a shoe and leather goods aficionado, my last two Frye purchases (including these) have been major disappointments. When I received these, they came in the notorious matte black box instead of the usual white glossy box. Upon unboxing, they smelled great, the gray color (Smoke) was really lovely, and the leather on the shaft was nice and soft as expected. With some difficulty and straining, I was able to pull these on. Yes, the ankle is very tight and so is the toebox. I bought an 8 and am a true 8, but have rather narrow feet and narrow calves/ankles. These fit just fine length-wise. Upon closer inspection, I was really disappointed by the quality of these boots. They're acceptable but not for Frye. Maybe Steve Madden? Or some shady "Boot Outlet" you'd drive by in the midwest where boots are "buy 1 get 2 free." The sole and heel are simply egregious. Those of you who have worn Fryes know that there are traditionally metal cobblers' pegs that run along both sides of the arch, something these are clearly missing. I own the Campus boots as well, and the "lug" bottom on these is not rubbery, grippy, or anything representing a "lug" bottom except the patterning. On these boots they feel more like a sad hard plastic (think Rubbermaid plastic totes). Even worse than the lug patterning though, is the heel. As my boyfriend (a more seasoned Frye wearer) said: "they look like outlet heels." The heel of a Frye boot should be a smooth stacked heel of good quality leather and polished to a semi-gloss when new. Smooth and heavy/dense to the touch. These looked like someone took a stack of beef jerky, half-heartedly squeezed them in a stack, and cut the stack with a dull knife. There's not polish to them, they look haggard and poorly cut, their density is on par with the budget line of Penguin Classics at Barnes & Noble, and are rough to the touch. The heels look like someone forgot to finish them, at the very least. Less major complaints: I understand that there is natural variation in leather, and it can be beautiful (this is the case in my other Frye boots, and they're beautiful). But the variation in the color on these boots isn't due to natural variation in the leather--it looks like someone took a 99 cent paintbrush from Home Depot and slapped some dye on these in one runny, thin coat. It's streaky and cheap looking. I always treat my boots with Frye's leather conditioner and waterproofing spray, so it doesn't bother me so much (they're much darker now and the weird dye pattern isn't really visible), but if you plan to wear these without treating them, beware the 3rd grade art project level of precision. My last and least concerning gripe: the little Frye logo buttons on the pulls look cheap. They appear to be metal, but might as well be plastic. The Frye logo and surrounding print look like someone took a rubber stamp and stamped too hard, smearing all the font. The distressing/weathering of the buttons looks hackish and overly done (think Hobby Lobby "vintage"). I don't like branding and logos being overly present in any case, so I'm glad these buttons are small but I wish they had stuck to well-chiseled, durable metal hardware. Remember the brushed metal Frye rivets that were flat and just had the double F? I wish these tacky shiny buttons were those instead. These look Michael Kors-level flash with no quality. On a positive note, the calves are really well-shaped for those with narrower calves (gaping riding boots--no thanks) and are nice and tall, and look quite elegant from a distance. Today is my second day wearing them and they are already feeling a little more comfortable/broken in, and the leather lining inside is nice and soft. The pulls seem well stitched and sturdy (you'll need them to get these boots on the first few times), but I am skeptical and will see if they hold up. I'm still hoping these will wear reasonably well and look better with age (as they should), but I suspect I will need to get them resoled much sooner than other Fryes, and I will be relieved to do so and get a decent quality sole put on. And yes, I could just buy the Made in America line, but why aren't Fryes made in America anymore? Or at least made in Mexico but with the same standards? I like my Campus boot, but a girl can't just wear square toed everything all the time. Frye, I beg of you--go back to making things in America and done well. No more flashy trashy aluminum hardware and plastic soles. I don't mind the $400+ price tag if I'm buying real Fryes that I can wear out in the field, around the office, and everywhere in between, but if this is what Frye has become, I'm better off buying some made in China garbage I'll trash remorselessly in a few months. ... show more
