Are they totally out now, always wanted a pair but never been able to part with the money, they seem so warm & comfy & also easy to throw on for school runs in winter etc.

So the questions is ugg boots or no ugg boots?

No to ugg boots from me.

rantinghousewife · 22/09/2007 21:24

I don't like 'em, think they're yuck, yuck, yuck but, I am not a style maven.
They remind me of steven gerrards wife.

The trendiest mum at my school is still wearing hers. Infact I believe she has a new pair. Make of that what you will. If you want a pair, get some! Who cares what anyone else thinks?

I've always said no, but just found these and I love them, but they are too expensive so I'm trying to forget them...

dalmatianbabe · 22/09/2007 21:48

Those are lovvvvely x

dalmatianbabe · 22/09/2007 21:49

I bet if you saved up and got them, you would wear them to death. That would be good value. Go on, treat yourself!

paolosgirl · 22/09/2007 21:51

These ones are mmmmmm, but the others are chav chav chav.

Sparkletastic · 22/09/2007 21:59

They ain't exactly cutting edge any more but I love mine and wear them all the time in winter. They are ace with jeans and soooooo cosy. They are also v hard-wearing - mine are 3 years old and look as good as new so worth the dosh IMO.

Blondilocks · 23/09/2007 15:16

I really don't like them, they just look so ugly.

ChiTownLady · 23/09/2007 15:20

OK, forgive my ignorance but how do you wear them - tuck jeans in, or have them over top?

You can wear them either way but mostly people tuck them in.

moon boots all the way

Surfermum · 23/09/2007 18:01

Love 'em. I live in mine in the winter (jeans not tucked in). They are so comfortable, warm and easy to get on and off.

LittleMinx · 23/09/2007 19:39

I love them......... however, the light coloured pair get ruined quickly as i found out the hard way ...... I now have a black pair which i love but unfortunately dont get to wear them much as i spend most my time at work and they are not really suitable for wearing in my job

woodenchair · 23/09/2007 19:42

still like uggs, I'd be buying a pair in grey this year if I didn't already have a pair

Fimbo · 23/09/2007 19:45

I am undecided whether or not to get them this year - the thing that puts me off is people seem to go over on the heels iyswim, and walk on the inner side of the boot rather than the heel. Sorry, I know what I mean but it is so hard to discribe!

quadrophenia · 23/09/2007 19:47

if you are undecided buy some imitation uggs from primark for £8 if you don't like them then you haven't lost as m,uch money, if you like them then upgrade to a more expensive pair.

Ankles and calves too fat. If I did get them up my legs, they'd look like bots on me anyway.
