Harness 8R Boot delivers moto-inspired attitude with rugged craftsmanship and timeless appeal
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I live in my Harness 8Rs—seriously, they’re the perfect combo of edge and quality. The square toe and raw leather vibe go with everything, and they just get better with every wear."
The Harness 8R Boot is a symbol of American grit. Inspired by iconic motorcycle heritage, this rugged silhouette fuses function and attitude with a timeless sense of style. Crafted in premium oiled leather—whether washed for a vintage patina or richly oiled for depth—the Harness 8R is unapologetically bold.
We love the way the square toe, full 8-inch shaft, and classic harness ring instantly ground an outfit, while Goodyear welt construction ensures these boots stand up to years of pavement pounding. Pair them with your favorite distressed denim or soften the edge with a flowy dress—either way, they bring just the right amount of rebellion. Durable rubber outsoles add traction, and the unlined build breaks in naturally for a personalized fit over time.

Boots are very well constructed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Boots are very well constructed. They will no doubt last a lifetime. The black color is very moto rock n' roll and less western. 8r height may is a little awkward for petite women.

Narrow for wide feet
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have wide feet and these were a bit narrow, however, I was able to break them in and wear them to a 10 hour shift at work comfortably. I would definitely recommend these. They have the best arch support of any shoe I’ve worn. I’m a size 8 in most Frye boots but had to size down to 7. 5 and they fit perfectly.

Classics, like back in the day!
Beautiful boots, just as I remember them from days gone by. I am having to return them for a smaller size because they're just too big-- by a full size, so do keep in mind this style has a larger toebox. I'm just bummed because now I'll have to wait another couple of weeks to get them on in order to actually wear them out!

I love my Frye boots!
I am 67 years old and have wanted Frye boots since I was in high school. I couldn't bring myself to spend the money for decades. I finally took the plunge and bought a pair. I love looking at them, I love wearing them, and I love Michael in Frye customer care! He has been responsive, kind, and very helpful with my questions.

Not for me
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been eyeing these for a few years and finally decided to purchase them…the fit was off for me. I’m usually always a 10, sometimes a 9.5 in certain sneaker brands, and these felt large and looked large but if I sized down I feel like my toes would’ve been cramped. Compared to my other Frye boots they didn’t feel comfy on my arches either so I decided to return. Cute boot but not for me.

Throwback
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a pair of these in my twenties, wore them so much the heels had just about as much as they could stand. I was gonna throw them away…but my Sister asked me for them so she could have them resoled and keep the tradition going. I’d been wanting a new pair for a while now. Finally got them and they haven’t disappointed. Such a classic look. Accompanied with a white t-shirt, blue jeans and my black leather jacket with all the zippers…another vintaged piece. That look is always a winner.

Best boots hands down
This is my second pair because I accidentally let my first, perfectly broken in pair get too run down in the heel to resole and I can't live without them. So comfortable they were the only shoes I took on a trip to Paris with heavy walking involved. Can't say enough good things about them!

Nice, but..
These are sized funny. I wear an 8 almost exclusively in boots. I ordered an 8. They are floppy on my feet, but not big enough to return and get a 7 1/2. Pricey to have their own sizing formula.
