I'm not mad about them but they are just not going away.

NappiesGalore · 20/01/2007 20:36

im dubious about the look of them, but they are SOOOOOOOOOO comfy. get em, and LIVE in em all winter. mmmmmmmmmmmm. tis the large choc bar/comfort food of footwear.

Piffle · 20/01/2007 20:37

I was wearing these 25 yrs ago in Nz, we've had em there for donkeys.
Fashionable? Stylis? Streetwear?
Nope
comfy and useful
VERY!

my neighbour's friend (in their 20s) came out in them today

I didn't realise what they were (I am the antithesis of fashion I think) and asked her where she got her slippers from because they looked really comfy (was then told, politely, though as if talking to someone who had trouble understanding words with more than 2 syllables, exactly what they were).

They do not look like proper shoes.

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 20:47

I have exactly one pair. A pair of Nike walking ones to walk back and forth to work.

And I agree, Cod.

'Leisure wear'.

For beaches and holidays on cruise ships.

brandy7 · 20/01/2007 20:51

but dont you wear trainers running around at the park with the kids or do you wear heels

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 20:53

NO. I usually wear some boots whilst going to the park. Well, this time of year I've been wearing my walking boots or Hunter's.

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 20:53

In summer, my sandals, usually.

brandy7 · 20/01/2007 20:55

oh i see.there is a lady in our village with peroxide blonde hair, tons of slap on and very high heels,mini skirt ,stockings etc and she wears this get up all year round to the school gates and the park .

she obviously doesnt own any trainers

suedonim · 20/01/2007 21:01

Dd1 loves her Uggs, acquired from Oz. But then she's stick thin and 19yo and her Uggs are just one her many, many, many, many pairs of footwear.

I don't possess trainers. I had a pair about 15yrs ago but they gave me claustrophobia in my feet when I wore them.

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 21:04

i own one pair of trainers.

i have dark hair, albeit it is high/lowlighted to blend in the 40% grey, fair skin with olive undertones, and dark eyes.

i don't own a miniskirt, either, b/c i think they're not really appropriate attire for someone who's nearly 36.

stockings?

do you mean 'tights'?

taylormama · 20/01/2007 21:04

i love my Uggs warm, cosy and yes a bit ugly but frankly i don't care! they are easier to slip feet than trainers when doing the nursery run in pjs

Surfermum · 20/01/2007 21:04

I live in my Ugg looky likeys. They are soooooooo comfortable and warm.

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 21:04

trainers draw attention to your feet.

and not in a good way.

uggggh.

they just look sloppy.

wotzsaname · 20/01/2007 21:06

fugly boots i say, just wear wellies if you want to wear flat boots. far more paractical and they keep your feet dry. wellies are much better to wash any dog s--t off you walk into in the park too.

expatinscotland · 20/01/2007 21:07

I agree, wotz

CODNoMore · 20/01/2007 21:10
