Ugg boots yay or nay?

[Louise000000]

Quite fancied a pair of the tiny ankle uggs this winter, my 17 year old sister tells me they are so 2012!!😂
Opinions?
YABU : NAY, UGGS ARE AWFUL
YANBU: YAY, I LOVE MY UGGS AND THEY NEVER GO OUT OF FASHION

Weird bouncer comment upthread.

I agree that what we all have in mind when we think of uggs are house slippers. I have one pair of those that I use for house slippers. I have three pairs of ugg ankle boots, all are actual shoes, they have side zips for a close fit, one of them has a wooden heel and it's a tough sturdy little thing with stock chic vibe.

They are hideous. I love them

There are better ways to have warm feet.

Well you have to get the proper expensive ones because the whole idea them is around wool lining and the £5 a pair ones are synthetic, won't keep you warm and will just make you sweaty. I always hated them until someone bought me a pair and I haven't looked back. I was so glad last week when it was cold in the morning and I could put my boots on.

Don't mind them, but my most recent pair are knackered.

Get UGG slippers to wear at home! So comfy

I’m always disappointed in these threads that nobody seems to care about the cruelty factor, wood you wear a real fur coat? probably not yet you’ll wear a dead animal
on your feet.

Noooooo. Nay. No!

Rocket Dogs.

Sheepskin is a great use of a by-product from food production. Like leather, or wool. Sustainable, doesn't use fossil fuels, natural. Great if you can find organic wool, hide etc.

Yuk. All the ones I see look filthy (and worn with pyjamas in Tesco) and worn down at the ankles/heels.

I wear mine around the house and for after openwater swimming so easy to pull on, cosy and no socks needed. Wouldn't wear them out anywhere else though.

I love my Ugg boots. They're my go-to all through winter. They're so comfortable and so long as they're genuine, they are a good support. I can walk around in mine for hours and be comfortable.

If you like them, go for them. I know lots of people think they're hideous but thankfully I only care about what I think when it comes to what I wear :)

We have Aussie family who have kept my teen daughter shod in Uggs to get her to/from swimming since she was a toddler.

I don't think she wears them otherwise.

Love mine, had them for ages. Have really cold feet so they keep them warm and dont care if people think they are out of fashion.

The only time they leave the house is if I’m putting the bins out or if we’ve been to the beach on a chilly day.

Aussie DH would kill me otherwise.

Bought mine 5 years ago and still going strong.

I have a fiver pair from primark or tesco. I wear as slippers in the house in the winter. I also used to wear a pair at my desk (and change when I left my small office for meetings) as I work in a heritage building and its bloody cold!
I think if you just want them as slippers buy a cheaper pair. But also do what you want!

When something's called chavvy or common, it's always got something special going for it - in this case, cloudsoft comfort.

Warm toes in winter are bliss. Bring the Shoes of Shame on, I say.

I have a pair of the knitted Ugg's from years ago. Most impractical shoe I ever stupidly bought Tell you what though, they are brilliant slippers. I gave up trying to wear the bloody things outside and now they are my official winter slippers and have been for years. Sooooooooooo comfortable and warm.

I love mine - as slippers. I might, at a push, wear them to fetch something from the car but aside from that, never wear them outdoors.

Gross, chavvy and nobody looks good in them not even supermodels, makes normal women look short, fat and ugly.
When there are so many lovely boots in the world why would anyone choose to wear these ugly boots and they ruin your feet and ankles.
I hate them with every fibre of my being, if there are mens versions I'd dump any partner of mine for wearing them.

I wear them at home only, more as slippers and keeping warm without having to outvote heating on for cold feet. I never wear them outside except to do the bins 🙂

This sums up how I feel about them too.

They’re coming back! Urban Outfitters is stocking them. I mean, they’re also stocking velour and diamanté juicy couture tracksuits but that’s really a bridge too far.

Hands down the best boots I've had. Extremely warm and comfy. If that makes me a chav... then so be it!
