I am so happy I found this forum of FRYE lovers like I am... I only have 2 for now... I am waiting on my Veronica Shortie in Black which should arrive today... I have skinny calves so I am very picky with knee high boots.... For reference, I am 5'9" and 120 lbs... :p
Aren't those Veronicas SO comfy! Love mine. Gorgeous color choices!
 
So I just got my first pair of frye boots and I love them! I got the black 8R engineers since I wanted a pair of short moto boots. I was originally thinking of getting the jimmy choos but couldn't justify the price and wanted them to be more rugged.

They fit great length wise (I went tts) however the top of my right foot seems really tight and they took a while to get on my foot. Also the back tab where the stitching is rubs on my calf.

Will the engineers stretch around the top of my foot? And any suggestions on the scratchy back threading? Everything else is perfect about them and I'm worried a 9 would be too big length wise.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

:D I received my Frye Veronica Shortie in Black yesterday.... They were 15% off at Nordstrom if ordered by the 24th. Since I only needed a black one, I only ordered this pair. (So proud of myself for sticking with one pair) :amuse: Anyway' I can't wait to wear it this week since I am off.... I love how comfy these boots are... And good thing is I can wear them to work!!! :graucho:

I just found this thread a few weeks ago, googling something else. Some of you may recognize me from the Coach forum. I bought my first pair of Fryes over 30 years ago and still regret donating them!

I was doing some leather conditioning, thought I'd share a pic of my ImageUploadedByPurseForum1388018373.124320.jpg Villagers, Vera short. Campus and Harness mules.

Beautiful Frye family!

Just received my Martina's today. I can't wait to wear them but my feet/legs are finally swollen (just hit 37 weeks pg). I cannot wait to wear them in February! I need to post my little Frye family I created this year!

Can't help you with the itchy tab (stick some moleskin over it?) but I can help with the tightness as I have those boots and the same problem. What I did was borrow one of the dog's tennis balls, wrapped it in paper to make it the right 'fatness', warmed the leather with my hairdryer after putting leather conditioner on it and forced the ball where the boot was tight. After a couple of nights of this they were fine, then they stretched a little more when I started wearing them. They're really comfy now, and I suffered no pain!

I now have carmen, engineer and veronica, and it's ALL MATT'S FAULT FOR THIS THREAD :D

Sorry Matt, I really mean THANK YOU, for introducing me to the wonder of Frye, :D

Everyone's boots look lush, I love seeing the pictures.

You have an awesome Frye collection!! Love em all!
 
Happy new year everyone! I've spent the last few days catching up on all the posts since my last post awhile ago.


I just got the Carmen Harness shorts in waxed suede. Has anyone else had boots with this leather, and how have you treated them? How have they held up?

Thank You! I guess I should have conditioned the Harness Mules before I took the picture, they're looking kind of beat up. They look better now after they're rub down.

I probably haven't worn the Villagers for two or three years, this thread inspired me to find an excuse to wear them again. The leather was getting stiff, but I have a nice supply of leather conditioners from my Coach rehab projects, they are softer already and I'm sure they'll benefit from going for a little walk!
