Reviews

Pretty Good

"I wear these boots a lot. True to size and comfortable. My only complaints are that the toe box is plastic and it deformed on me when something heavy was sitting on it. I took them to a cobbler, he heated them up and reshaped them but it was not something I was expecting for this price. The other problem was that the left boot strap broke when pulling them on in an airport. (See photos. ) The strap isn't a solid leather - it's thin leather wrapped around some synthetic material making it pretty weak. Otherwise, love these."

Great Motorcycle Boots

"These boots are fantastic. Don’t listen to the size down nonsense…I have three pairs of Frye boots now including these…all true to size. Boots are fantastic for motorcycle with the easy pull on and rubber soles. Very comfortable after a days wear."

— Mark (5/5)

Overall, these boots feel incredibly

"Overall, these boots feel incredibly small for Men’s size 8. A complete struggle to get into. Made me question whether these boots were really Men’s 8 vs Women’s 8 since they were so ridiculously difficult to put on and felt super snug from heel to forefoot. They were also moderately scuffed on the heel and toe. Don’t recommend."

Find the Right Size

"Great boots. Had to send the initial pair back due to sizing and the narrow foot, however, after going up a 1/2 size, boot fit well. My 5th pair of Frye Boots - great product."

— Derek G. (4/5)

Uncomfortable, nice looking boots.

"I’ve had these boots for over a year now, and can say with confidence that they are the least comfortable boots I’ve ever owned. I thought they would get more comfortable as they broke in. They did not. They’re even difficult to get on and off. It sucks because I love how they look. I have other Frye boots that are great. These are not."

— Shane V. (1/5)

Very Nice . Roper!

"These are very nice quality and just what I was looking for. They do run big so order a half size down. Very versatile and good looking boot! Comfortable for me out of the box."

True Boots

"These boots are my second Frye purchase in the last few months. I started with some dressier shoes for work and the quality was so good I went for these boots. Not flashy, Goodyear welt construction, and exactly what I was looking for. I’ve had no problem getting my foot in them."

Duke Roper

"A little difficult to pull on and took several times wearing to break them in."

— Steve H. (4/5)

My new favorite pair of boots.

"I have several pairs of Frye boots. Very high quality. These are by far my favorite. They fit me great in my normal size (9. 5) even though I normally size down a half size in Frye boots. Several of the reviews say they are hard to get on but I think that may just be from people who are not used to wearing cowboy boots. They are called boot straps people. Use them. Love these boots."

— Sean H. (5/5)
