I was very excited to

"I was very excited to get my first pair of the 8r harness boots however when I received them it has a long deep scratch on the toe box and small scuffs all around the boots. If i’m paying almost $500 for some boots, i’d expect it to be in a perfect condition with no defects. Also it would help if the company can pre inspect the boots first before sending it out to their customers to avoid problems like this. No one even reached out from Frye about my issue. Very disappointed."

Not the Color Advertised.

"😠😠😠😠. Don't get me wrong here, because I love the quality of FRYE boots. I am a proud owner of 7 boots from them but I have only been disappointed twice between my purchases. This purchase is that 2nd time. I bought a pair of 12 inch and a pair of 8 inch Gaucho boots in different colors. Frye only had two colors for the 12's which were brown and black. As for the 8's, Fry had two color options as well, light cream and black. As advertised, the 12 inch Gauchos came as advertised. However, the 8 inch Gauchos did not come in the color i ordered; nor was this color an available color option to pick from. Frye has dicided to make me the owner of the same color boots in two different sizes. Why Frye? Please observe image one, as it shows the colors I desired and purchased. Now look at the two on the stove top. Does the 8 inch Gauchos look as advertised? I didn't even know this was a color option for the 8 inch Gauchos. Where are my cream color harness boots?"

Very pleased with the boots

"Very pleased with the boots great fit. stylish retro look I am eyeing the prison boots for my future purchase thanks. quality and value Frye company I purchased a pair of boots back in the 70 s quality leather boots then and now!"

Wow, this is the boot

"Wow, this is the boot Frye invented and it is indeed Iconic. I picked it up on the Imperfect Icon Sale as one boot had a deep scuff on the outer heel. The scuff didn't bother me as it resulted in a 50% discount. I wear Frye size 12 in James shoes, campus boots and this harness boot and it feels great right out of the box. I just might have to get the Brown color next time I see a sale. Also, I've sold 3 older Frye shoes on their resale site and used my credits toward this boot. I lobe this boot!"

They fit well and I’m

"They fit well and I’m happy with them, but the quality is definitely as shotty/sloppy as the Internet suggests. That being said I’d still probably buy fry made in USA again."

Favorite boots!

"These are my favorite boots. I bought them in both colors, and they always make a great statement. I love the high quality and durability."

Classic Frye: Made in USA

"A Frye classic. I hesitated because my experience with Frye boots is that the sizing is all over the place. I am an 11. 5 normally, but in the Logan cap toe I was a 10. 5. For these I went with an 11 and they fit nicely. I added a leather insole with some arch support. They will work with almost any straight jean. I hope the Made in USA collection will expand rather than continue to shrink"

I like them, but I

"I like them, but I like the hue of the 12R Mens harness better, but I'm told that hue is not available in the 8R."
