Amazon.com Product Description
The scuffed leather upper gives this heavy-duty hiking boot from Frye a nice worn-in look, like it's already been through a few rough-trail adventures. Equipped with rounded lightweight metal loops in foot, and speed hooks at the ankle, the rugged high-top features Goodyear welt construction, a padded tongue and collar for support, and a cushioned, shock-absorbing leather insole. The grippy textured rubber outsole allows for solid footing on slippery surfaces.
From the Manufacturer
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.
