Customer Reviews Frye Vera Short

Awesome boots! I ordered about half size smaller than my usual 8.5 and they felt just about right in length with a bit room for tow wiggle, just a bit snug in width. I wore them three days in a row when I first got them and by the end of the first day they felt as if I'd worn them for years. The heel is bit higher than I normally wear, as I am already 5'9" but they a stable as a rock so it's not uncomfortable at all. In fact I could walk in these for miles, and have! There is still a little heel slip, but it doesn't rub my feet raw somehow, which most other shoes manage to do on a regular basis. I got the Maple color and love it. I can wear it with blacks or browns and it look fabulous. I highly recommend investing in these boots.

Love the boots! I too had to adjust the strap one notch on the bottom so my heel did not slip. But they are exactly what I was looking for. Comfortable and very stylish. Well-made. I plan to have them for years.

Love these boots but they are way big! I'm normally between a 9.5 and a 10 so I ordered a 9.5. They were too big so I exchange them for a 9...still too big! Need to exchange these for an 8.5.

I just received these boots made by Frye "Vera Short" and I absolutely love them. I am a petite woman. However, these boots look awesome under a pair of cool jeans or tucked in jean and also leggings are fabulous to boot! For the most part I am a true 6 medium in boots/shoes, but being very familiar with Frye boots, I usually have to go down a half size. So I purchased these boots in a 5.5 medium width and the fit was great! If these boots are your style, I would definitely recommend them. I'm a happy customer!

These boots are gorgeous and it pained me to send them back until the 11s became available again. I'm a true 10.5, but between the lack of availability of that size ever (outside of, perhaps, athletic shoes) I almost always have to bump up to the 11 to accommodate my wider foot! Boots have been the odd man out though, so I took my chance - definitely found these on the narrow side, but knew quickly that there was little hope of them stretching to fit - I'd surely hurt myself trying! These still look fabulous though, no one does it better than Frye, and the leather in person was incredible. The quality is definitely evident, and that's not a sure thing ever, even with the price tag. Now that these are available again in the size I need, I hope Santa might act quickly just so they don't disappear again on me!

I am so obsessed with these boots! They fit great, look amazing and are really versatile. Also, the heel isn't too high so I feel like you can wear them anywhere and they are still very comfy. I originally got the 10 and they were too big. Zappos was amazing and exchanged them for me without a problem (and I got the new pair, 9.5, in one business day). The 9.5 fits perfectly. Definitely a solid boot. I got the Grey Vintage color and I love it, it's a little different but definitely something that could go with anything. A great boot overall!

Beautiful boots! I have had so many compliments on them. They are comfortable and go so well with most anything in my closet. Love them, love them!

These boots are fabulous. They are marked medium width but I have a narrow foot so would not recommend to anyone whose foot is wider. Comfortable, stylish, wear with anything. A great investment. By the way did I mention I love them!

I have never been happier with a pair of boots! I wear my Fryes all the time...they are super comfortable. I normally wear a size 8 and they fit perfectly. Love Frye and Zappos!

Best boot I have ever bought. It's my 3rd pair of Fryes and definitely my favorite. I wear them all day at work some days (10 hours or more) and do not have any issues with comfort. They look great with skinny jeans, leggings/tights, skirts, boot-cut jeans that have a wider lower leg, and even with some of my wide-leg wool pants. The distressed black color was awesome right out of the box and a year later still looks good. The only slight con with this boot is it is kind of noisy, as some others have pointed out. Have no regrets about spending the money on these!

I'm loving this boot! I originally ordered it thinking that it was quite red in color, but the picture makes it look a brighter red than it really is. The finish is lovely, but not what I was hoping for. I was loading them back into the box to return them when my friends urged me to reconsider -- they're so beautiful. I did! In doing so, I also reconsidered the size. Normally an 8.5 in Fryes (this is my fifth pair), these felt pretty sloppy and after reading other reviews that had similar comments, I ordered the 8.0. This half size smaller fits perfectly and I'm wearing them for the first time today! Have done a decent amount of walking in them and they're comfortable and already breaking in well. I love the height of these heels and the chunkiness of them. I'll wear them over skinny jeans, under boot cut jeans, with long and short skirts, and with tights.

Very cool boots. I have a size 10 foot and there is plenty of room for socks and even a little too roomy the heal is a little too wide but I'm keeping them because they are awesome!

I loved these boots. Great quality, stunning boots with excellent arch support. The heel made it easy to walk in and gave me the extra height I desired. However, the width was very narrow so much so it became painful within minutes of having them on. For reference my foot is medium width that leans towards wide. I really did not want to return these boots. I love Zappos for their great customer service and easy returns. The only thing I wish is that Zappos would offer more wide width boot options.

I love these boots! Ordered yesterday, got them today and have had them on since I opened the box. I was afraid they would be too tight at the top (I have very muscular calves) but since they are the "short" boots there was no problem at all. I ordered my usual size and they fit like they were made for me. The slate color is beautiful-closer to a taupe than grey-and should go with anything. This is the first pair of Frye boots I have bought and I am tempted to spring for another pair already!

These boots are awesome! I wore them straight out of the box. I have over 10 pair of Frye boots but these are my go to boot. I absolutely love them. They are tough looking but subtly sexy. Get them and you will get noticed. Frye and Zappos rock!

Love. Comfy, cute, versatile. I only had one day of "break in" and I've worn them gobs since with absolutely no issues. Love. (Did I mention that?)

I love them! They look just like the pic. Shaft is soft and big enough for larger calves (like mine).

Perfect boot with jeans. I finally a heel and platform without looking like you have heels on.

This runs a little big. They were built to last and are very rustic looking. If you are looking for boots that look like you found them in the middle of nowhere these are them.

I love these boots & wear them constantly. They were comfy from day one...no blisters, no need to use an insert. Nice & roomy, too! The heel is great for me, too. It's just enough height to go well with jeans. I'm seriously considering a 2nd pair in brown...maybe the tall version.

This is a great looking boot. It's really comfortable. Runs a bit big. I am an 81/2 or 9 and ordered a 9. There is a bit of slippage, but I cinched the buckle down over the arch of my foot, and it feels great now. It might be too small in an 8 1/2 in the length. There is no "wear in" period.

This is a great boot. The shaft is just the right height if you are looking for a medium shafted boot. The heel is just the right height to give a little lift. The leather is a nice brown, and is soft and will only get better over time. Unfortunately, this boot did not fit me well though. One size was large and sloppy on me, and the heel slipped. The next size down was too tight in the toes. Although the leather is soft, and would eventually stretch, I wasn't sure if it would be quite enough for comfort on my foot.
