Sheepskin lined leather boots

[MakeMeWarmThisWinter]

I have UGGs for the first time this year and they are so divinely cosy I never want to wear anything else on my feet! They are grey with Swarowski crystals and they are amazing

But today for a wet walk type day out followed by pub lunch... I didn't want to get my UGGs trashed and muddy and wet, so wore nice coat and black riding boots with socks and my word my feet froze! I could barely feel my toes even by the end of the pub meal.

So - sheepskin lined boots. I want them to be like UGGs as in fully sheep lined, including the bit under your feet. And has to be real sheepskin. And leather so I can wear them for days like today and just clean them afterwards easily.

I get that this is a pricey product so has anyone seen any bargains? Or just general recommendations. I am going to try on UGG Noira but I'm not in love with the shape tbh so anything more stylish would be gratefully received.

I have shepherd of sweden boots (bought on ebay) and they very nice and warm.

Ok so now I've fallen in love with the Linn boots by Shepherd! Exactly what I'm after. But I can't find them in black in a 5 anywhere. Boots of beauty

Do you speak Norwegian?

Tethers you are amazing. I spent hours searching last night. You have superpowers

Just trying to work out if they'll ship to UK now. Any Norwegian MNers to help me out here?!

You need an MNer called WickedWenchOfTheNorth. She's swedish but Norwegian and Swedish are very similar. My Swedish is only passable.

Im on a similar hunt! I think I'm going to get boo roo Minnies - v like uggs, but totally waterproof www.sarenza.co.uk/homefh.aspx?req=fh_location%253d%25252F%25252Fcatalog01%25252Fen_GB%25252Fbrand%25253E%25257B1315%25257D%25252Fglobalvisibility%25253D%25257B1%25257D%25252Fluxe%25253E%25257B0%25253B1%25257D%25252Fpays%25253D%25257Ben%25257D%25252Fmultigender%25253E%25257B1%25257D%2526sar_version%253dv2r%2526fh_sort%253d-%252524cocktail_soldes_pe14_push_produits%2526fh_modification%253d

Hi

I can't see anywhere on that site that they ship to Britain. It's a Swedish company actually so I went to their Swedish website but couldn't find any info there either.

Maybe you can email them and ask [email protected]?

They're also on FB, I posted a question there about shipping but no replay yet.

What about these on ebay? Not the Linn boots but quite similar.

Thanks so much WickedWench! I have emailed them.

The other Shepherd ones just aren't the same - I neeeeed the Linn ones.

The Boo Roo ones are really nice and a very good price - but I think I want leather not suede as I know I can go for proper country muddy walks and they will last years. I've had suede ugg type boots before (although with a fake sheep lining) and I loved them and they did last a couple of years. Hmm.

Happy to help

celtic and co do waterproof sheepskin boots.

I've some Gershwins but not worn them yet because I'm worried about damaging them!

What protector spray would people recommend? Will any do?

I haven't put any protector on my Gershwins. They have been out in mud walking the dog and I just rinsed them off afterwards. They seem very hard wearing so don't worry about damaging them!

I looked at those BikeRunSki but they say 'showerproof' and 'water resistant' - I wouldn't trust them for jumping in walking through muddy puddles.

I have made that mistake with coats before - I walk a lot and need proper waterproof. My UGGs are a very non typical purchase for me, but they are just so cosy I need a practical version!

I just got an answer from Footway and they only ship within Scandinavia

I like the look of the Ugg Gershwins. And their Grandle as well.

Can anyone tell me please, how they wear the Gershwins with skinnnies - ie, jeans tucked in or what?

On a different, but still warm and comfortable style, does anyone have any views on these (top can be folded down or left up as in pic):

I've also got the Ugg Gershwin and they are brilliant. I've had them for 2 years and the first year they were my snow boots and last year I wore them during the flooding until it got too bad and they had to be replaced by wellies. Definitely worth the money.

Great to hear good reviews of UGG Gershwins - but I still need people's help on how to wear them with skinnies, please!

Plus any views on R and B boots I posted.

Duckfeet perhaps quack

I tuck my skinnies in. You couldn't really wear them any other way.

Fine. Just difficult to see from pics how wide the boots are.

They aren't tight on my calves and there is a bit of space at the top. A bit of a rubbish pic to show you!

Boo WickedWench thanks so much for asking. I do have distant relatives in Norway and Sweden, maybe I should get in touch...

Not keen on the Duckfeet ones, they're a bit odd.

I don't like those, sorry polyhymnia - I think the slightly pixie boot shape is a bit cheap looking, it's common on cheaper boots at the moment. And for the price you could have real sheepskin lining. I'm slightly evangelical about how cosy it is.

I was in Russell and Bromley this morning admiring some beautiful lowish heeled ankle boots in taupe, they were leather at the bottom and really delicate beautiful lamb skin at the top, fully lined in real lamb skin. Utterly stunning, not on the website as for some stupid reason they don't put their sale stuff online. I think they were something like £350 reduced to £195.

Another woman was admiring them too and I said 'oh they're lovely aren't they, as cosy as UGGs but more stylish' and she went into a massive rant about how trashy and awful UGGs are... trailing off when she saw my grey sparkly ones. I left, I was so embarrassed for her

Thanks, both - will look into my local R and B this very afternoon to follow up.

And into my local UGG - though if they only have the Gershwins full price will buy them online instead.
