Ugg Boots

Everytime I see someone with UGGS on I wonder if they wear Crocs in the Summer.

except crocs are hideous and usually seen on trailer trash types, or hippies....and I almost always see uggs on gorgeous model looking women. Could be a California thing though.

Not much is hotter than Uggs with a skirt and tan legs.

Wrong!

Wrong is right. When I see this, I'm simply confused whether they are hot or cold.

These are my Crocs. They have come a long ways!! I wouldn't wear the ones with holes in them.

These are just knock-off Converse Chucks.

Yeah, I know, but at $20 they are cheaper then Chucks. And two of my doctors wanted me in crocs a long time ago, this way I can wear them and still make them and my feet happy.

I'm in a wheelchair and they way my feet sit on a chair can cause pressure. They recommended both Crocs and Uggs for the softness. I finally came around as more styles became available. Even though I am sitting I still want to be fashionable. I rarely wear the Crocs (more of a summer shoe) and now that it's cold it's BOOTS, BOOTS, and more BOOTS! I am looking forward to my new chair -- my vendor is designing a footplate that will move so I should be able to wear just about any shoe I want because the footplate will even out the pressure as opposed to a shoe doing it. I am a shoe diva.

Crocs are definitely not trailer trash or hippie--- lots of us in the medical field wear them and I hear chefs like them too. They're cheap, light, comfortable and can be cleaned more easily than other shoes.

Yep! I'm a cook and wear Crocs to work! Easy to wear, don't slip, and protect my feet from hot oil and other crap.
I also have a pair of knock-off Uggs that I wear around the house when it's too cold. Sometimes you just need something easy and functional to slip on!

Not in the UK. They are mostly worn by chavs just because they are 'label'. Which is a shame 'cause they do look very warm & comfy.
Oh, and I do wear Crocs, but only the flip-flops, they are soooooo comfy.

Because every girl knows that you aren't "cool" unless you have ugly footwear!

Crocs, Birkenstocks & socks, Uggs, Emus...they're all fugly.
Uggs aren't even water proof, either. You might as well just send her outside in the snow wearing slippers.
Not worth the money. Hopefully your daughter will pull her head out of her bum and realize in 4 months time that having you buy her something practical for xmas was a better decision

Well I would rather look good than be be cool I guess

Ugg boots are warm and comfy now...you can always buy the knock offs. That's what I did! Saved lots of $$$$ LOL

UGGs (or the cheaper brand of Bearclaws) are just comfortable. They're like slippers that are made to wear outside.

I spend a lot of time in ice rinks and I resisted Uggs for the longest time.. but I gave in last year and now I can't live without them. They are super warm and comfy - no socks! My sexy high heeled boots just don't cut it rink side. There is a reason this trend has stuck around.

There just awesome!! I have a tall-boot pair and a pair of open ones. I love the open ones but I can't drive in them! Its so frustrating.

HAHAHA-best thread ever.....but really I live in Indiana and these boots keep me super warm during the winter.

poor sheep

I so agree! I am too old for this fashion statement but I cringe every time I see a younger person wearing this! The name must come from the first person to see them UGG like in ugly! Sorry maybe that was harsh but unless you are on a snow covered mountain or are under 10 yrs old...these do nothing for you.

I personally dont care for Ugg's. They're cute, but the bottoms are slippery! Maybe if you dont live in an area with snow and ice.... I choose not to wear them in summer.............. with shorts and such. I guess I didnt get that memo lol

It's a status thing. You aren't "cool" if you don't own Uggs. If you buy her the off brand, she will cry.

SOO TRUEE. If you're going to get her UGGs, you may as well buy the actual brand. Be sure, too, that you buy them from the official website, uggaustralia.com, or from a store like Nordstrom, Englin's, Journey, or Victoria's Secret. Be careful, because some websites will try and fool you into fake UGGs, which cost just as much, and last half as long.
