I am a big Frye fan and wear them to work most of the week. I bought the last pair in my size and in the color I wanted but they are noticeably different. I know skin won't always look the same, it's actually one of the things I love about Fry, but they're just too different. Otherwise they were comfortable and the quality of the leather was amazing. This is exactly what I get when I order the last pair of a discontinued style.
