Craving the comfort of uggs after the year we've had

About 5 years ago (probably more), I deemed my 10 year old short chestnut Uggs to be far too scruffy to be seen in public again. At that time, I stopped wearing Uggs out but I kept the old ones to wear when going to the shed at the end of the garden (tumble dryer and extra freezer in there) or for late-night nipping the dog round the block walks. These current ones can't just be rescued with a clean up as they are actually worn out, with a hole in the toe.

So, now I need to confess I've worn these horrors more than once in public over the last couple of weeks and not just under the cover of darkness! Blush

Do I just accept that right now we should take comfort where we find it and get some new ones? And if I do buy new ones, which style and colour are likely to be the most acceptable in 2021?! I am clueless with fashion as you can probably tell!

Alternative suggestions also welcome please...!

I still have my tall brown uggs that I bought in maybe 2003, when i wore them with Juicy tracksuits. I stopped wearing them out probably 2005 other than a bit around the house, but I've had them out quite a bit recently. There is definitely something about this year that makes me crave comfort. i didn't keep the juicy tracksuits though!

I haven't worn mine for years but in the autumn I read they were making a comeback and went online to look. I ended up with these in two colour ways. They are all I wear atm. They make me smile during these gloomy days.

I have some old ugg noira which I dug out for evenings outside . So warm and waterproof. I also got some ugg biker boots this year which are amazing !

The best part of winter is slipping those Ugg’s on.
Fuck who cares what people think. I’ve always worn them and alway gotten shit for it.

For better quality have a look at EMU boots, they’re still made in Australia whereas UGGS are made in China now.🙂
