The Frye Company is the oldest continuously operated shoe company in the United States. 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.

This review is from: FRYE Women's Engineer 12R Boot (Apparel)
I really love these boots and I'm disappointed to be sending them back but I was surprised to find that these boots are completely lined in shearling wool. So they are winter boots and probably fit snugger than some other models. This model is made in Mexico. The standard boot is made in the USA. I was looking for a more year round boot.
