These are the last boots you EVER have to buy!

FRYE Womens Veronica Back Zip

FRYE Womens Veronica Back Zip

My second favourite. Which means nothing because they're Frye's and are built to be 5 stars.
On the topic of snaps coming undone.. It's drove me crazy, which is why I waited so long to write a review. Every 5 minutes, one of the heel snaps would come undone. I don't know why, but after wearing them every day for a month (I love the look that much), it just stopped. I don't know if others experienced the positive change, but now they only come undone if I'm stumbling home after a couple drinks and manage to boot my heel or something. SO, with that out of the way, I have next to no complaints. In the early days, when wearing sheer tights, I noticed a small chafe on my heel from the zipper. That stopped too, probably since the leather around the zipper psoftened up. I went with black, avoiding the distressed, figuring they'd get distressed on their own. Walking approx 1.5 hrs a day in a damp northwest climate, I'm not exactly easy on my shoes. So here I am left with my favourite boots ever. I like it better than the Paige- has a stronger sole and toe. Better than the Carson for similar reasons, as well as a style that goes with WAY more outfits. I'm wearing them now. They dress up or down. Jeans or dress. I don't know if I'll ever take them off- I'm starting to think I won't have to.....

  1. I am crazy about these boots - love the back zip and the buckles and the fact that they are taller boots. I got the dark brown, which is a really nice reddish-brown. I'm usually between a 9.5 and 10 so I was hesitant about what size to order. I got the 10 and I'm glad I did because I think the 9.5 would have been too narrow. So if you have narrow feet, these are TTS, but if your foot is wider and you're in between sizes, I would go with the larger. Looking forward to wearing these for a LONG time.

  4. I got these boots today and and was excited. Never spent this much for boots before. Tried them on and wasn't sure if they were going to fit. I am 5'2 and have muscular calves-15 inches.I manage to get my foot into the boot with no problem ,did the zipper up and found the calf very tight, but to my surprise after wearing them for a copuple of hours they loosen up a lot. Had them on for at least 5 hours and no problems, thought the zipper at my heel would be a problem, but no. Love the look of these boots-casual. I only wish Frye would make pull on boots with no zipper with a wider calf- around 16 inches. If they do would someone please let the rest of us with bigger calfs know, I love the look of a knee-high boot without zippers. But overall will buy another pair in the future.

  5. Great fit, got US size 9.5, I'm an Australian size 10 and European size 40. True to size. The leather is good quality and they overall look really nice. Can't wait to get some cooler weather so I can use them. Very happy with my boots!

  6. I bought these boots a few days ago (they got here in 2 days, thanks Amazon :-))and I have to say that these are the most phenomenal, well fitting boots I have ever owned in my life. Like most women I have an affinity for shoes, however my collection far exceeds most women and I consider myself shoe connoisseur. I am 5'10 and wear a size 9-10 shoe and I am average size and have narrow feet as well. I got 9.5 and they fit like a glove. Plenty of room in the toes and I still have room in the calf to tuck in skinny jeans or leggings. They are quite tall too (usually the boots i try are too short). Completely beyond comfotable, I wore them for 8 hours on the first day and I had no blisters, no sore feet and no pinching anywhere. I got them in the black and the color was right on. Overall, completely worth the price and could not be happier, would not change one thing about them :-)

  7. I just got these boots today, and I've been debating over several different brands and styles of riding boots for a few weeks before finally deciding on these. I couldn't find any reviews of these boots prior to purchase, so I wasn't sure how they would fit. I decided to go with my normal shoe size, 8.5 and I am happy to report that they are true to size. I have athletic calves, and to my knowledge these are not made in extended calf size. The boots fit comfortably around my leg, but they will be quite tight if I wear them over leggings or jeans, so I will have them stretched when I take them in to be weather proofed. The leather on these boots is beautiful, and they are made to look more rugged/vintage as the other reviewer said. They are similar in style to the Frye Veronica Slouch, but these boots do not slouch. These are sure to be a staple in my wardrobe for a long time! Definitely worth the splurge!

  8. I'd been trying to decide on these boots for a couple years....just couldn't get over the cost. Eventually gave in, happy I did. BEAUTIFUL boots, love the style and quality. FYI though, if you have a wider foot consider the next size up...I am usually a 7.5, ordered that size and could just barely get my foot in....there wasn't an 8 to size up- decided to take them to a cobbler for a professional stretch- voila. Great fit now...but you may be in pain in the beginning, and have to wear THIN socks....Happy shopping!
