Would be a lot fecking easier to put them on as well… But seeing as how there's no vis on the straps as I wear them, I don't mind...
well why don
t you just bring them to a leathermaker? he can easily remove/cut the strap-part and re-sew the rest so that youll have the exact same boot but with a few inches less in hight… -

Indeed they are

I have some experience with Frye boots. I had a pair that were really poorly constructed, and were falling apart after just a few wears. My wife had a pair with a shaft adjustment strap that snapped in half one day. It was two pieces of cheap leather sewn together. Not what I would expect from $400 boots. No thank you. I'll take my money and invest in some Wesco's any day before I ever spend another dollar on Frye.

This year I chose as my "shittiest weather/ deep snow/ harsh conditions" walking boots a pair of deep tread, waterproof, cap toed Israeli special forces boots (they cost me £1 from ebay). In a few minutes I will attempt to walk 2.5 miles to work in them, walk around at work all day in them, then walk home. I expect to be crying by the time I get home, but this is the best way that I have found to break in new boots

IJ, those Abingtons are amazing. They're still the most comfortable boot that I own.

No I dont wear boots in JA, or pants for that matter! I rediscovered cowboy boots about a year or so ago and it combines well with my IH mania…

i could imagine you walking along in those boots & the looks you would get from some of the locals. . .although i think some of the youths would actually pick-up the cowboy boot thing & run with it.
to get back on track dope boots & individual style, not my thing, but you can't knock it till you try it

Nice boots.
And I thought I had unnecessarily many boots with four pairs
