Alternatives to ugg boots?

14 replies

I’ve had the original chestnut boots (mid height ones) for years as slippers and they are finally dying.

I want to replace them but had a look online and the prices are so much higher than they were!

I was wondering if anyone can recommend any alternatives?

Also, I appreciate they are neither stylish nor beautiful but I thought this would be the best place to ask 😂

Celtic and Co sheepskin are lovely, they last very well.x

Aus Wooli and Emu boots are about half the price of Ugg’s - and are exactly the same thing (ie proper sheepskin not fake sheepskin). Or if you’re not bothered about real sheepskin just get a faux fur pair from next or somewhere?

Celtic and co are nice but just as expensive as Ugg’s!

I got a nice pair of Shepherd sheepskin slipper boots for Christmas.

They’re lovely. Have always secretly coveted uggs but as you say, the price makes me wince.

I know I shouldn’t want the sheepskin but I do think it makes them last and extra warm and I have Reynauds so it’s hard to keep my hands and feet warm!

Thanks for suggestions I’ll take a look. What’s the sizing like on aus wool and emu?

I have had the Emu’s and just bought my regular size - not sure about Aus Wooli.

The Slipper Slapper - a family run sheepskin business in Northamptonshire. Reasonable prices and beautiful quality sheepskin. There aren’t any actual Ugg style boots available, but you did mention slippers and there might be something you like.

I have BearPaw, look very similar to Ugg's!

I’ve got a fab pair from FitFlop.
