Uggs boots have been around for quite some time, almost 200 years in fact. But where do they come from?

Uggs boots really have been around for quite some time, although they may be new to you. Ugs as a fashion boot are relatively new in the US, Europe and Canada, but they are not new.

Uggs boots come from Australia. It is said that they have been made for some 200 years in Australia, no one is quite sure. However there is no doubt that sheepskin boots, which is what Uggs boots are, originated in the land downunder.

Sheepskin products are quite common in Australia. Whether it’s sheepskin boots or sheepskin coats, or maybe sheepskin car seat covers or sheepskin rugs or sheepskin slippers or any one of many other sheepskin products, you’ll find them in Australia.

They were originally just a practical product made from a local commodity, the merino sheep. There are millions of merino sheep in Australia, and some years ago Australia was said to ride on the sheeps back because sheep and sheep products provided so much of the country’s wealth.

Ugg boots became particularly popular with the surfing culture of the sixties when surfers and swimmers discovered that Uggs were the perfect way to keep their feet warm.

They have since been exported to the rest of the world and become a fashion item. Originally Uggs just came in sheepskin color but now it’s possible to find all sorts of variation on the Ugg theme and all sorts of colors and designs as a result of the new fashion trend.

And of course along with fashion went price. Uggs were, some time ago, a simple effective and relatively cheap way to get some functional footwear. Now they are still functional, (to a point) but not cheap. We ahve seen Uggs boots advertised at up to a stunning $1000. More on Where Do Uggs Boots Come From?

Uggs aren’t the toughest boots. How do you care for your Uggs?

Uggs are notoriously soft boots. That of course is why they are so popular and so comfortable. They are the most comfortable boot you can wear.

And if you buy retail (don’t) then you can pay anywhere up to $999 a pair. So you don’t want to find that they fall apart quickly.

So how do you take care of your Uggs?

Well the first thing to understand is that Uggs boots are not tough boots. As far as footwear goes Uggs are very soft wearing boots prone to damage. If you buy a pair with a second outer leather skin they may well wear better, but even so Ugg boots are soft and prone to damage.

Ugh boots are also not waterproof. It is possible to buy waterproofing products to use to treat your Uggs, but don’t expect to tramp through rain and snow and keep your feet dry. They will leak, waterproofer or not.

So use your common sense and recognise the limitations of your sheepskin boots. They are boots made from sheepskin and that doesn’t make for a tough hard wearing stain resistant waterproof boot like you get if you buy, say a full leather walking boot.

Uggs are for looking good and for keeping your feet warm when it’s dry. They are a fashion boot that is best worn when they are going to be seen by the people you want to see them. They are not made for rain, snow, slush or mud. If it’s rainging take your hiking boots out. Put your Uggs in the car if you really want to wear them, and wear them indoors.

If your Uggs do get wet sponge them down with a soft sponge and some cold water. Don’t scrub too hard, don’t dry them right in front of the heater or in the direct sun. Don’t brush them except softly. When you  brush to take off mud, for example, look to see the grain of the skin and brush with grain. More on Caring For Your Uggs

Lots of people know about Uggs boots, but what are they?

Uggs boots, or ugg boots as they are also called, are extremely popular and becoming more so. And not only are Uggs boots popular, but they are also extremely expensive, hence the popularity of our website Discount Uggs Boots Online.

But what exactly are Uggs boots?

Uggs are sometimes known as sheepskin boots. That is because Uggs are, or should be, made from pure sheepskin. Of course sheepskin is covered in wool, and it is the wool which is the basis of the popularity of Uggs.

An ugg boot is made with the woollen part of the sheepskin facing into the inside of the boot. The wool lies against the skin of the leg, and this makes the boot an extremely comfortable boot to wear on the foot because the entire foot and the leg are encased in wool. Pure, natural, wool.

Wool is of course a natural fabric and so is not prone to some of the problems faced by some artificial fibres. It does not smell of body odor like some artificial fabrics, for example.

And wool breathes well. So although Uggs boots are very warm in winter they can also be worn in summer because the foot breathes well with the loose wool surrounding it.

Traditionally Uggs are long boots, that is they come right up the lower leg to just below the knee. That is not always the case, there are plenty of Uggs that are shorter, and there is plenty of other footwear that is longer, but traditional Ug boots come up high on the leg.

And if the woollen part of the sheepskin faces in that means that the leathery part of the skin, or the harder part of the skin, faces out.

This means that the outside of the boot is softer because sheepskin is soft. For this reason Uggs can be damaged more easily than some leather boots and care should be taken with them. And in some cases Uggs are made with another soft leather as an outer case to the boot, and this means that they can be more hard wearing. More on Uggs Boots. What Are They?
