In particular, Frye and Co. provides timeless silhouettes, sophisticated design details and contemporary styles for men and women including sherpa jackets, boho midi dresses, fair isle sweaters, shirting, pants and more available in sizes XS – 3X and men’s big and tall. Meanwhile, the boots selection is available in women’s sizes 6 – 11 and men’s sizes 7 – 13.

Looking ahead, the retailer said it will launch cold-weather pieces, and home and tech accessories in late fall 2022, just in time for the holidays.

“We’re pleased to bring the exclusive Frye and Co. collection to our customers and offer the timeless, iconic style that Frye is known for,” said Michelle Wlazlo, executive vice president, and chief merchandise officer, J.C. Penney. 

“J.C. Penney strives to celebrate and serve America’s diverse, working families by providing accessible style for everyone and we’re excited to partner with a brand whose history and values align with our own.”
