It would be great if you could share it. She's 5'2" and is wondering if they'll be too big for her. I'm sure everyone would love to see pics if you have them too!Little Contessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15390571347484462528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865738495844452250.post-49669216332711988342013-11-15T20:11:20.938-05:002013-11-15T20:11:20.938-05:00I went to the Frye store in DC today but couldn...I went to the Frye store in DC today but couldn't these exact same shoes. They did have similar options but none seemed like they would work for skinny calves. The closest was the Melissa scrunch, which I reviewed last year. Those could work for someone who is a size 6-6.5 and has a 12.5-13" calf, but for the most part, I think women with larger shoe sizes won't have much luck with Frye's current selection. I hope a reader chimes in to say I'm wrong because Frye boots are so pretty and wonderful quality.

Zappos says a size 8.5 has a 15" circumference. There's a Frye in Washington DC so I'll see if I can check it out and let you know. Also the one review on Nordstrom's site said the boots ran about a half-size large. No reviews on Zappos yet though.

I saw that you (at least I think it was you) mentioned me in the comments. Thanks :) Also, thanks for the update on the Aquatalia Unitys. I'm going to add your feedback to that boot roundup because it's super helpful.

I'm just wondering if you know other places I can find these boots since the only size they have left is 7.5 and I am an 8. This circumference is much smaller than any other frye boots ive tried on at size 8!<br />http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/frye-carson-zip-tall-boot/3466526long_limbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10211650535999693105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865738495844452250.post-15557229868321693022013-11-11T11:41:19.704-05:002013-11-11T11:41:19.704-05:00Hi LC!
