Melissa Button Boots in Toronto?

Can I try on a pair of Frye Melissa Button boots in Toronto?
I'm about to order these boots online, but I'd much rather buy them in person if I can. I've checked several shoe stores that stock Fryes (Get Outside, C Squared, Little Burgundy), and none of them carry the Melissa Button boot. Have you seen this particular style in Toronto?

You may have trouble finding them because people try them on in the store but then order them online.

Best answer: ATX, none of Macy's, Nordstrom, Saks, Neiman Marcus are in Canada.
But Holt's carries Frye, that might be worth trying.
I'd also give Trove a call to see if they've got them, they're very Trove-ish boots and Trove carry some Frye.

According to my friend, Frye selection is incredibly hit-or-miss in Canadian (Toronto specific) stores.

Best answer: I think I've seen them at Ron White in the Manulife Centre. Maybe Bootmaster on Yonge St.?

Best answer: I've found Frye's customer service to be really helpful, so it might be worth shooting them an email to see if they know of any stores that stock them.
And OmnieWise, she says she's going to buy them in person, not just try them on.

Response by poster: Ron White's website does list them as having the Melissa Button in stock. I'll check Holt's, Trove, and the Frye website if Ron White doesn't have my preferred size and color available. Thanks to everyone who provided a helpful answer!
And yes, OmieWise, I intend to buy them in store. I indicated that pretty clearly in my original question.

Oh, jeez, that's totally my bad. I somehow missed the second clause in that sentence. I debated whether to post what I did. I should have listened to my better nature.
Sorry.

Have you tried a major department store? Macy's, Nordstrom, Saks, Neiman Marcus usually carry Frye Boots. Go try them on there and see what size you are. I have 4 pairs of Frye boots and I love them all. I normally wear a size 9 tennis shoe, but I wear a 8.5 in Fryes. I don't have big calfs, so I don't have any issues there.
