HOTTTTT!!!!!!! October 19, 2009

OMG!!! These boots are fire!!!! They add an edge to any outfit. I definitely did not have a problem getting these boots on. I bought my regular size, which is a 7 1/2. These are my second pair of frye boots (I have the belted harness in brown). I think I may like these a little more. I cannot wait to wear these out. For those of you who are at odds on buying these, let me make the decision for you: BUY THEM!!!!
I love, love, love these boots! March 18, 2009

The quality, the style, the fit and comfort... everything about this boot has made it #1 in my book. I own 5 pairs of boots, and this is by far; my favorite! These boots did not require a "break-in" period, as I wore these boots for the first time today, all day long. I did not end up with blisters or sores. These boots took care of my feet. In my opinion; they run true to size. I wear an 8, but ordered an 8.5, so that I could wear them with thick boot socks. They are perfect! Thank you!

Frye is world-renown for shoes, made in the good ol' US of A. They're not only commendable in quality but durability and versatility. Wear them with skirts, pants, even shorts, and you'll be looking good year round.
The Engineer 12R Boot-Gaucho is the only Frye boot I own that I actually got the the size I usually wear, rather than the half size larger I usually have to order them in. That's because the toe is rounded, rather than the typical box toe that Frye is know for and allows for my wide feet, and fits easily and comfortably.
With the arch support and cushioned sole, and the lightness of the boot is the second thing you'll notice, after admiring the wonderful, thick leather, and the two buckles that help with fit over the foot and around the top. The buckle for the calf area is sewn in parts, with a lip attached to the side to give the wearer a tighter or looser fit, and it will fray. I've only had these for about ten months, and I had to have my shoe repair guy resew that strap back into place. No biggie. The cost will vary, like getting the heel replaced, so shop around, make friends with a reliable shoe repair person. Fixing minor failings and heel replacements are necessary when the leather will far outlast other parts of the shoe, thought it shouldn't be a heavy burden--just regular maintenance on a shoe that'll last you for decades.
The leather is nice rich mahogany color, and will scuff, but it won't look bad and will eventually fade. Most of the Frye boots are notoriously heavy, and can chafe the toes and heel as a result. You won't get that from this boot, it's made for specifically for comfort. They're 12R but they're actually slightly lower in front and rise slightly upward at and angle at the back of the calf. Subtle, but clean. The thick heel is cushy and give good traction (especially in snow and ice), and easily replaceable when the time comes--so, as I always say, make friends with the nearest shoe repairman,or woman! They can also treat the leather for weather or to just clean them up when they get dirty, or to soften the leather, but I just use saddlesoap every once in a while and make sure they get a good clean here and there.
I wear them with any kind of sock, but ones that a bit slippery since there are no handles to tug on to get them on if you wear thicker socks.
All in all, if you got distance to walk in, this boot is perfect, you'll look good walking all the way there!
