The Frye Exchange

Rooted in quality and craftsmanship, Frye extends the lifespan of durable leather goods through peer-to-peer resale.

“Sellers and purchasers alike can feel good about keeping items in circulation longer and out of landfills, just by listing or buying from The Frye Exchange,” said Lauren Salzinger, vice president and general manager at Frye. “We hope to bring beloved Frye products to a new audience of consumers while giving our current customers a chance to find a new life for the styles they no longer wear.”
