Ugg Boots - Oprah's Favourite Footwear Is Here To Stay

David Malan

What do Oprah, Drew Barrymore, Keanu Reaves, Kate Hudson, Sienna
Miller, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cameron Diaz, Sarah Jessica Parker,
Pamela Anderson, Victoria Beckham, Cat Deeley, Minnie Driver,
Danni Minogue, Leonardo DiCaprio, Julia Roberts, Shawn Wayans,
the Spielberg family, and plenty more celebrities have in
common? Aside from the obvious, they, and millions of
Australians, all own a pair of the most comfortable footwear in
the world - sheepskin ugg boots.

Oprah loves her ugg boots so much that she featured them on an
episode of her popular show entitled Oprah's Favourite Things
2005. Kate Hudson wore a pair of trendy ugg boots on the poster
for the movie Raising Helen. Pamela Anderson is said to have
started a Californian ugg boots craze when she wore her ugg
boots on the set of Baywatch. The list of celebrities bitten by
the ugg boot craze goes on and on.

So, of course, the question is, are ugg boots a short-lived fad
that will pass like platform-heeled footwear, flared pants, big
hair and other fashionable boots, or are they here to stay? The
fact of the matter is that those who buy ugg boots to be seen as
part of the latest sheepskin-inspired fashion craze will
probably move on when the next footwear fashion, sheepskin or
otherwise, comes along. The majority however, will likely grow
so attached to their ugg boots' perfect fit, comfortable
sheepskin warmth in winter, and practical usefulness as
around-the-house footwear in summer, that they will regard their
ugg boots as essential to their wardrobe as their pair of trusty
denims.

Like denim jeans, sheepskin ugg boots had their beginnings many
years ago, long before they became fashion accessories.
Originating down under in Australia, Australian surfers have
worn ugg boots on cold mornings heading out to catch an early
wave for as far back as any can remember. Known for generations
by many names -- ugg boots, ugh boots, ug boots, uggys, uggs,
winter sheepskin boots, or simply as sheepskin footwear,
Australians still regard the trusty ugg boot to be as much a
part of Australian history and culture as Vegemite, AC/DC and a
slab of beers slung over the shoulder on the way to a barbie at
a mate's house.

Now that sheepskin ugg boots are a fashion statement as much as
they are winter sheepskin footwear, they're available in many
new and trendy variations. In addition to the original sheepskin
leather, you can now buy ugg boots in blue, pink, beige, sand,
black and chestnut, to match your personality, outfit, or
fashion statement objective. Not just Aussie souvenir gifts
anymore, ugg boots are personal comfort and fashion essentials.

If you follow the care instructions, your ugg boots could well
outlast your favourite denims. The ugg boot's soft sheepskin
fleece molds to the shape of its wearer's foot, making for a
perfect fit. When you put on your own uggs, you know it's your
pair of ugg boots, because the sheepskin inside the boot shapes
to fit your own foot perfectly, just the same as your denim
jeans shape to your body. Look after your sheepskin ugg boots,
and they will remain your favourite item of clothing, long after
winter is past, and the next big footwear fashion has arrived.
