I just got these and a few months of riding and daily wear I well let you know how they stand up.

I also got a pair of work boots but i am going to need to take a picture as they are not on the Red Wing site. They are steel toed , Kevlar 11 inch boots. I wore them yesterday and the plus is VERY heat friendly, they breathe and insulate. Minus they are BIG, as in they are hard to get under the toe shifter, if I had a heel toe set up they would be great. All day comfort.
They have a pair that have studs up the side, I like them but with your pant leg over the top who can tell:ponder:
Some of us daily riders need boots that we have to wear all day, I have always worn good cowboy boots, bull hide is by far the best leather to date.
I do not recommend The FRYE harness boots, the buckle on mine was made of pot metal and the first pallet I brushed by tore it off:huh2: :angryfire I found you could bend the buckle with your fingers. They would not repair them or even offer to send me a replacement buckle:thpt: They look like this

I well take picture of my FRYE boots as the look after a year of daily use.
 
Don't know how well those hold up but my guess would be a Loooong time. I have a pair of Redwing "frat" pull-on boots that I bought back in '83 that I'm still wearing/riding. Just got them resoled again a few months ago. :thumb:
