Ugg Boots Are Hot Stuff And Not Just For Feet

Ugg Boots have been one of the "must have" footwear items for the last couple of years and this season promises to be no different as Ugg extend their range with an exquisite collection of boots, slippers and casuals.

There is a theory that Ugg actually stands for Ugly and the company name came about because the first line of boots they manufactured were just that - ugly. Another theory is that the Aussies always referred to sheepskin boots as Uggs and that that they were the footwear of choice for Australian surfers back in the 1960's. How true any of this is I have no idea but isn't it a great story.

What is true though is that Ugg they make very high quality, beautifully fashionable sheepskin footwear. Ugg boots are popular today because they look good, are very comfortable and keep your feet warm and cosy even on the coldest of days. I have even seen them worn in summer but I'm not sure I'd go that far myself.

My current favorite Uggs boots are the Classic Cardy, which are available with wool blended colorful knit uppers and sheepskin sock liners for added comfort.  A light and flexible outsole along with a suede heel guard provides durable wear all season long. The Classic Cardy is detailed with three oversized wood buttons, allowing to be styled up and buttoned, slouched and slightly unbuttoned, or completely cuffed.

In the casuals range the Ugg Abigale really makes a statement having a wedge heel and design details that can only be described as one of a kind. No one well have any problem recognizing this as a unique fashion statement and they could be the biggest hit or the biggest flop of the season. A very brave move by Ugg for which they should be applauded.

I'm not a huge slipper fan but Ugg has come up with one pair I would consider and that is the Womens Cozy II. Ugg describe this as taking you from the house to the street and I think that's about right. It has a thick molded sole which makes it robust enough to wear outdoors while the feminine upper keeps it fashionable.

So there you have a few highlights from Uggs new catalog. The only gripe I have is the cost, sure, they are not as expensive as some other brands but they're hardly bargain basement either. However, there is a solution, thanks to the online market. To get a great deal check out our discount Ugg boots store today.
