Hi everyone! I have a question. Does anyone own the Vera Hiker boots? I found them on 6pm for a good price, but wanted to see what people thought of them/what they look on a real person and not just a random Zappos/6pm model 
Wish 6pm would do free returns...I would just buy them and see for myself but I hate paying return shipping!!

I just bought a pair of the Veronica Slouch and my question is will they stretch?? I notice that these are so much tighter the my other Frye boots!
Where are they tight? I used to have a pair of Veronica Slouch and I did not find them to stretch at all.
I think those are very cute and versatile. If you don't love them, though, don't keep them!
never thought i'll join the Frye band wagon but here I am 
I'm keeping the redwood Vera Strappy, but need help on keeping the short or tall Jenna Braid boots. Tell me your thoughts!

Hi Qtiekiki!
I personally Love The Carmen Style of Boot if it is the Short or Tall versions of them.
What I have found over the years of wearing so many different FRYE's That I own is the Carmen's Are some of the most comfortable boots I have ever bought and get more wear time than most.
As far as Shaft Hight goes I Love both the short or tall equally and it really matters what look you are going for.
Personally my solution is to buy a tall pair as well to go with your short pair!
But seriously you look AWES
ME wearing those and they will look Awesome also if you wear them under jeans or with jeans tucked in.The good thing about the short one is since I see you live in SoCal the short ones are a lot cooler (temp wise) to wear under jeans than the tall ones so you will get much more wear time (season wise) out of them.
Either way Just remember That FRYE Boots Have a Habit of Multiplying like Wabbits!

Hi Classic Chic!
L
VE the FRYE Vera Strappy's in Redwood!Keepers!
As Far as the short or tall FRYE Jenna Braid boots go .
Since you are keeping the Vera's
And Personally I Really like the looks of the Tall Jenna's better!
I just think the Braiding is way to large on the short boots and would have looked better on them if it was half the width.
It just Looks to Busy .
Now that same braiding on the Tall ones Looks very Proportional to the boots and They Look AWES

Thanks Matt. I was wondering if they would be comfy for long days. I am debating if I should keep these now, and then get the Veronica short later (to replace the Veronica short back zip that I returned to nordstrom because they were killing my heels). Or get the Veronica short first, then these. I really like the Veronica short, and flat is easier when you are running after kids.
Lol on frye multiplying. I have the Vera and Paige. I actually want another Paige.
YYZ, appreciate your detail inputs on the matter of short or tall Jenna. The dilemmas I am facing are given that I am in the 'back to basic' mode for next few years, I really need Frye to handle the four seasons MI has to offer. What I love about the tall boots are that it keeps me warm in thin summer jeans I brought from TX, does not dig into my leg when I walk as short/ankle boots do yet I can sit comfortably without it hitting the back of my knee, slim fit so little chance of snow/rain drips in. Yet it is so slim that it's a chore to pull it on/off (having to actually sit on a chair and do the wiggle thing in front of SO, it's like doing the wiggle to pry a pair of jeans on :gigglesHi Classic Chic!

, may be too heavy to wear during spring/summer seasons? And I don't have any short boots aside from the Vera Strappy.Now the short boots is so easy to pull on/off, I can see myself wearing it in summer/spring too, plus I am lacking in short boots department. The flip side is I think my legs look stubby in it (or may be because I'm not used to seeing it on myself?), the opening of shaft could be a problem during snow/rain time.

Are you set on this style in short? I also think the braiding is too busy in the short. I do like the short height.
