America's oldest continually operated bootmaker, The Frye Company is celebrating its 150th anniversary with a limited-edition, vintage-inspired collection of American-made boots and a brand-new flagship store in the Gold Coast. The 6,100-square-foot, two-story outpost, located at 1007 North Rush Street, stocks Frye's full range of timeless footwear, including the artisan-crafted Anniversary collection—featuring antiqued, stonewashed, and hand-stained leather—and the earthy tones of Frye's Fall 2013 lineup.
