 Outstanding product and company March 2, 2010

These boots are awesome. Very true about going a 1/2 size smaller. Outstanding customer support on behalf of the company. They absoultely get the concept of customer service. I will do business with Frye again and have raved about the boots and the company to everyone I know.
Love these in tan! February 17, 2010

These boots are amazing! I bought them in the tan color, and wasn't expecting them to be already distressed-looking since they didn't appear that way in the photo. When they arrived, though, I was pleasantly surprised to find that they have that broken-in look already to them.
After reading a lot of reviews here on Amazon and elsewhere, I decided to go with the common advice of ordering a half-size down, and I'm glad I did. I usually wear a 7 1/2 in boots and shoes, and the 7 fit perfectly. What I read on-line said that you know you have the right fit when the heel area is loose; they will eventually mold to your foot, and you will no longer feel your heel sliding in them, which is exactly what I found to be the case.
I also had no problems breaking them in. I wore them around the house for a few hours over the weekend, out for two hours yesterday, and wore them for eight hours on my feet teaching today -- and didn't need to put on my back-up shoes that I had brought with me (expecting that these would hurt after a while). They were comfy and great all day!
These are almost a cross between a motorcycle boot and an equestrian boot -- and they definitely are smokin'! I got compliments on them all day today, and love how classically stylish they are. While the motorcycle look is currently trendy, these boots have such a classic look to them that I know I will be able to wear them for years to come.

I had been purchasing Double H boots for the last 15 years or so, until Double H decided to no longer produce the tan DH 5006. I was also disappointed several years ago when they stopped the Metro line which was a very soft and comfortable boot.
In desperation I googled harness boots, figuring someone had to actually make a stable line of harness boots in different colors and came across the Frye line. After consulting with several people about Frye Boots, I decided to give it a try. I am ecstatic!!!
While I don't have a wide foot, I do need a wide width since I have to wear orthotic arch supports for my high arches. I ordered my normal half size up (7 1/2) and thought there was no way I would ever be able to wear the arch supports in boots this tight and form fitting.....until 10 minutes later when the buttery soft leather gave way enough after wearing them without the arch supports to fit them in. I was still a bit apprehensive of the tight fit after actually putting my foot in with the arch supports.....until about 15 minutes later when the leather gave way even more to accommodate both, which was just in time to wear them to church.
It has been a week now and the boots are still very form fitting and elegant looking (no sagging of the leather) but do not require the constant stretching that the Double H boots required in order to not abrade the skin on the top of my feet.
I've since sent a letter to Double H Boots, thanking them for no longer producing the boots I need, since I would otherwise never have known about Frye Boots and their superior fit, softness and comfort.
I will, most likely, never purchase another brand of harness leather boots again.
Thank you, Frye Boots, for having such a superior product.
It's well worth the investment.
Love these boots! February 12, 2010

The very best boot to own. Stylish and comfortable. Runs half a size larger.
I own many different styles of Frye boots, all very comfortable but the 'harness'
is by far the superior boot.

The first time I saw this boot, I just had to have it so I purchased it in black and brown. The boot is a bit stiff and tight by the toes but they will stretch out out after repeated wear(it is a bit of a painful process). They look great and I love them. I usually wear a 6 1/2 but had to go with a 6 for these boots.
