:D Thank you for your help, Matt. You have awesome shopping skills!

Neither the Melissa Button or the Jane works, but I ended up with the Vera Slouch in the maple color. I love them! The boot shaft works really well with my athletic calves and the heel gives me a nice boost in height. Woo hoo! The search is over... for now at least ;)



Hi Indigo16 :flowers:

Well, I own the FRYE Jane Stitch but not the FRYE Melissa Button.
But the good news is that the same Girl, Amanda is doing the Modeling on the video for both of those FRYE Boots on the Zappos.com Website! ;)
Here are the Links to Both Video's:

FRYE Jane Stitch Boots:

FRYE Melissa Button Boots:

Personally I think they look to be about the same height in the Shaft, and that is what the Zappos Site say about both.
I have found that Zappos does a pretty good job most of the time with their measurements.
I hope this helps you out!:ghi5:
 
My calves are 15." The boots fit fine over leggings and tights, but it feels too tight over skinny jeans. I would check out the extended calf version.


I am looking into buying the Veronica slouch 66706, now my issue is will they actually come up below the knee or right at the knee.
I have a wide calve 15.5 - 16 will these work out okay or are they tight around the calves?

Hi Indigo16!:flowers:
Awww you're making me BLUSH! :blushing:
I just L:love:VE To help all of you!
And the Veronica Slouch Are So AWESOME!
As far as the Calves these are ver easy ones to have Stretched!
So if they Are to tight for Skinny Jeans I would get them Streched!
FRYE Boots Stretch very well and will fit perfect afterwards!
Would LOVE to see Pictures!
Thank for all of your info as far as you sizing of your calves What size were you I have forgotten.
But as a rule of thumb on FRYE Boots the calf size increases 1/8" per 1/2 size.
Example of this is:

5B------14"
5.5B----14 1/8"
6B------14 1/4"
6.5B----14 3/8"
7B------14 1/2"
7.5B----14 5/8"
8B------14 3/4"
8.5B----14 7/8"
9B------15"
9.5B----15 1/8"
10B-----15 1/4"
11B-----15 1/2"

I Hope this helps you all out!:ghi5:
 
i'm disappointed. i ordered a pair of frye julia riding boots in the bordeaux color and it's more brown then red. It's the shade of cognac on the zappos website. NOT the shade of bordeaux that zappos shows for amelia or on the frye website for the julia (16). Has anyone else had issues with Bordeaux not being a shade of red?
 
I just received these boots in size 11 black extended calf and they look very strange. The shaft is large and the ankles look way too big for the boot. It's nice but it doesn't seem to fit me right. Has anyone had this problem.
I'm also looking at the Jane 14L and was wondering if I'll have the same problem. Any help would be appreciated.
 
I don't really know what to do.... I ordered the Frye Melissa Button boots in an 8.5 and in Dark Brown (which fits perfectly), but I don't know how I feel about the boot.... The ones I ordered have somewhat of a glossy, smooth leather, but I kind of want something a little bit more un-perfect/rustic/vintage looking (color and finish wise). Also, my legs are sooo long (short torso long legs), and the Melissa Buttons don't really come up as high as I wished they would.

I was thinking about ordering the Paige Tall riding boots in dark brown... do you think I'll like these more instead?

To give you an idea on what kind of style I wear my boots with, it looks something like this:

Sounds like you might be looking for the Melissa in Chocolate.
 
Does anyone have the Mimi scrunch boot? It looks totally different on different websites I've looked at, and I can't get to a store to check it out in person. I'd love to see real pictures!
 
Can somebody help me? I have the Veronica Slouch which I love (have them in black and brown). But now I want a shorter one. I am trying to decide between the Veronica Shortie or the Engineer 12R. They pretty much look the same to me. I can't find any Veronica shorties around me though. Is it a tad bit more feminine? Thanks for any input!!!

I have the Veronica Slouch in black and the Engineer 12R in sand. While I don't have the Veronica shorties, I'd imagine that they'd be softer than the engineer boots. The engineer boots were pretty stiff and didn't have a slouch that I'd like. I treated them with mink oil to soften them up but they're still not the way my tall Veronicas are. I hope this help!

Thanks! That's a good point. I don't want the shorter ones to slouch too much.
