Every gal deserves a high-caliber Western boot and Carson from Frye is an excellent choice. The leather upper is burnished for a fashionably distressed finish, while the padded insole delivers comfort. Dual pull tabs make it easy to put on, while a leather outsole increases its quality.
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.
Customer Reviews
Finally “get” Frye
Wow, I’ve tried several styles of Frye and never got why people raved about there comfort and classic styling, until I tried the Carson riding. My foot is slightly wide and these fit great. they were a tad snug, not tight at first, but I compare them to a belt made of great leather, stretches after a couple of wears. The leather by the way is so awesome. The opening stays put on my calve,I’m a runner so i have muscular legs. If you have skinny calves these may slouch. i ordered them in emerald and fell so in love I now have the carson pull on in black and shortie in tan, they’re that good. these boots run large though I am a solid 7 but took a 6 1/2. You will fall in love with these Fryes.
Unique, Comfy and Versatile
so, I really love these boots. They are beautiful and the leather has a nice sheen although, the leather could be a little thicker. I am always an 8 in Fryes but I need a 7.5 in these. I could have got an insole and they would have been fine but I opted to exchange them for the smaller size. The look is very cool although I think that it is uncessary for Frye to make the toes of their boots so long. I was surprised that they did not make my feet look huge but do not expect that they will make your feet look tiny either. Regardless of the flaws of the boot, they look so great with everything and the colors are rich (I got the Emerald). Finally, a boot for girls with thinner calves. They slouch but are not huge like some of the other styles.
new Frye lover!
This is my first pair of Frye boots. I was looking for a style that had been on sale on another site and sold out. I came across the Carson riding on sale here and thought the emerald would be fun. I’m definitely not the cowboy boot type (I always think you have to have horses to wear them)so didn’t know if I would like them. They are not too western for me and are really cute! Wonderful boots; so comfortable and the leather is pliable and a beautiful color, almost black but not quite. It goes with a lot more colors than you would think. Very slippery, though, so scuff them up on the bottom. I read reviews before buying and did go down half a size to a 7 and they fit with room for socks. My calf is 13.5″ and the shaft on these is about 14″ so perfect for tights and skinny jeans (also look really good with skirts). They would stretch out pretty easily if a little tight at first, I think. As a result of this purchase, I now have a couple more pair of Frye boots and I’m a convert!
