Uggs boots

Uggs boots

Uggs - the world famous demi-season shoes made from sheep's wool. Uggs are sewn with the smooth side out, and with warm fur inside. These uggs perfectly protect from the cold, while preventing the legs from overheating due to the unique properties of merino sheep wool. This shoe is universal and suitable for both men and women, and that year has not lost its relevance, remaining the favorite everyday shoes of world celebrities.

History of

Despite the fact that in our country ugg boots became known only in the 2000s, the history of these warm boots has more than a dozen years.

It is difficult to say for sure when the first ugg boots were made, but it is certain that this happened in Australia and New Zealand, and it was mainly farmers and shepherds who did it. The first models of such shoes were made by hand and looked rather sloppy. Hence, uggs - ugly boots got their name, if we translate literally "ugly shoes".

A new round in its history of shoes received thanks to ... surfing. Or rather the lover of this sport Shane Steadman. It was he who invented the design of these boots, which we are used to today. It was not by chance that they selected sheep wool as well - after surfing their legs they were very cold from cold water and needed warmth. A few years later, Stedman registered the trademark of his shoes - UGH-BOOTS.

But how did the uggs go beyond Australia and conquer the whole world? Here they contributed to another surfer - Brian Smith. In 1978, he brought several pairs for the first time and started selling these shoes in the USA. Soon, he opened his brand in the States, and called it "UGG Australia". Slowly boots began to gain popularity in America.

However, real success in Uggs came in 1995, when both companies, along with trademarks, were bought out by the shoe firm Deckers Outdoor Corporation. After that, real fame came to the Australian sheepskin shoes.

Uggs are loved not only by American surfers, but also by Hollywood celebrities. Looking at their uggy-clad idols from the screen, the youth also wanted to get such stylish and comfortable shoes. Sarah Jessica Parker, Oprah Winfrey, Britney Spears began to confidently flaunt in Australian boots, unwittingly forcing the whole world to follow their example.

Features and benefits

Today, ugg boots are made not only by UGG Australia, but also by many other companies. Shoes that are not manufactured in Australia are more affordable, but lose out to the Australian due to the synthetic materials from which they are made. This is the best option for warm winter boots. Natural fur not only retains heat well, but also provides excellent air conduction, allowing the skin of the legs to "breathe", while maintaining comfort and dryness of the legs. But talking about these qualities only applies to UGG Australia. Today, only this brand can boast of real uggs made from 100% sheep wool.

In addition, this type of shoe is very light and comfortable. Even the insole of these boots is made of fur, and, of course, it allows the legs to feel free and comfortable, which is important during long winter walks.

Thanks to the grooved sole, the boots maintain stability, which is better and more comfortable on a slippery road, which is also an important advantage of them.

Real UGG Australia also has a solid heel in their shoes. This protects the boots from premature wear and fixes the foot, which is especially important for those who do not have the perfect gait.

Uggs - pretty versatile shoes.It is easy to combine it with a down-jacket of any length, with a short leather jacket or sheepskin coat, with sports-style outerwear and even with a coat.

Models and styles

Today, uggs can be found in almost any height and color. However, the most popular models are uggs ankle-deep and slightly higher, but not reaching the knee. Uggs are a classic beige color. Despite this, the color range of Australian boots is incredibly rich, and you can choose any shade based on your personal preferences.

In a wide variety not only colors, but also the finishes of boots are presented. To begin with, high uggs can be worn by bending their upper part outwards. Thus, the same pair of shoes will have a different height and look different depending on your mood.

In addition, there is a large selection of models with fur inserts outside - such ugg boots look interesting and expensive.

How many different options for the exterior design of Australian boots! Women's uggs are decorated with rhinestones, embroidery, sequins, buckles, beads, embroidery and sequins! And this is only their small part. Good looking models with knitted inserts, for example, knitted pigtail riding boot. Large decorative buttons, leather tassels, suede fringe and even satin lacing can be beautiful accessories on shoes.

Unusual and stylish look models made under the skin, for example, snake. And how do you like shiny metallic uggs, beautifully iridescent in the rays of the winter sun? Romantic ladies will appreciate the boots, decorated with bows or floral pattern. This shoe is great for those who not only want to reliably protect themselves from the cold, but are not afraid to experiment and love to be the center of attention.

Gaining popularity and men's uggs. Such models are presented in calm and universal colors.

Of course, there is a large selection of models for the smallest. Despite the fact that ugg boots are universal, more often it is bought for girls than for boys. Children's boots, as well as adults, delight the eye with a variety of colors and decor. Sheep wool will be ideal for children's shoes, thanks to its warming properties. In uggs, a child has no chance of catching a cold. Again, the matter is in the universal properties of sheep wool - it’s not for nothing that sheepskin is actively used not only for boots, but also in the production of winter envelopes for babies.

How to choose uggs?

If you are determined to purchase the original UGG Australia, you should be very careful, because the fakes on the famous brand come across at every step. So, pay attention to the following:

  • Appearance. Real sheep uggs consist of one layer, where the front part is the skin of an animal, and the inner part is its fur. If you see a gap between the fur and the outside, then they are taken and connected separately, which means you have a fake.
  • Fur inside the boot. Fluffy, thick and light - so it should be. The fur is colored and smells strange? These uggs are not sheepskin!
  • Sole. Matte and flexible, quite high (1.3 cm), grooved and always with the company logo in the middle - so it should look like in the original pair.
  • Packaging. Each pair of UGG Australia comes in a branded box with the brand logo. The box should have a holographic sticker, and inside the box there will be inserts with gratitude for the purchase and information about the product.

What can uggs wear?

These shoes have long been successfully fit into everyday style, so combining it with your favorite clothes is not difficult. Nevertheless, there are still some small features of what Australian boots “love” and “dislike”:

Uggs look best with long outerwear or with short jackets to the waist, but the long coat "on the floor" risks looking with this shoe ridiculous.

Skinny jeans and leggings are great for them. It is quite possible to combine uggs with a warm knitted dress above the knee and tight tights.Wide or strongly flared trousers, as well as a long dress made of too light material, unfortunately will not be combined with this shoe.

Uggs love casual style, or, more simply, calm and familiar everyday clothes. An expensive fur coat or a fur vest will not work for them, but with a simple basic down jacket, a coat of straight cut or a short jacket, they will look good.

Do not forget about moderation. If you choose a bright and decorated model of boots, you should not wear accessories with rhinestones and outerwear with a flashy pattern. Shoes will become a very noticeable accent in your image, and by adding something else, you risk getting a vulgar image. On the contrary, having stopped on simple model of base color of your boots, you can safely add it with outerwear of your favorite bright color.

How to care for uggs

Despite its practicality and functionality, there are things that sheep boots are afraid of. These include primarily moisture. Before the first exit from the house in a new shoe, apply a water-repellent spray first. Try to wear uggs only in dry weather. Especially it is necessary to be afraid of the wet sites of the road strewed with chemical reagent, from it on your boots stains can easily remain, even after drying.

Once the ugg boots can not wet, therefore, they can not be washed. This is another reason why you should wear them in suitable weather (so that later you don’t have to remove them from contamination). If the uggs are still dirty, take a tough brush and gently rub the already dried dirt.

If, despite all your efforts, uggs are still soaked, do not dry them on the battery, near hot electrical appliances or a stream of hot air. So they are deformed and will continue to keep warm worse. Put them in a warm place and wait patiently for them to dry themselves.
