These boots are in fantastic shape and couldn't have been worn more than a few times by the original owner. No cracks or creases in the leather, nor visible wear on the soles. Just a couple tiny scuffs on the toes (it's impossible not to scuff Frye's if you've ever owned them before). Made in the USA. After resoling my old pair of Frye boots for the fourth time, I bought these used last year, tried them on once and realized that I just prefer the taller version (12R). Finally getting around to re-selling them! These retail for an obscene amount nowadays ($458) so this is your chance to buy a relatively new pair for less than half price.
