Uggs

[Hed_Kandi]

I have to confess that I wear uggs with legwarmers and a miniskirt

That's hot. Post some pics!

I think the combination of leg warmers and uggs sounds cute.

They will still be massive this year. Mukluks are better tho!

I've noticed loads more people wearing Uggs/Rocket Dogs just in the last few months. I think they will be massive this year still.

Anyone prefer uggs with bootleg or flared jeans?

 

[Kimkhuu]

Massive or NOT .

I have trouble seeing what is so attractive about it. I got a pair of black Uggs' like from Aldo as a gift, I immediately returned them.

I saw a girl wearing black uggs, black legwarmers and black tights today with a short skirt. It looked great actually, and I can now see it looks good.

Nope, I hate ugg boots. Always have and always will.

I mean, its a fashion craze that Pamela Anderson started for crying out loud... that has got to tell you something!
Let the ugg-boot-craze die.

Uggs are still semi-popular where I live because A. It's a college campus and B. It's usually freezing. The only time I wear mine is when I feel like wearing a skirt and it's too cold. I agree with a lot of other people on this board, just wear them if you still like them. Who cares.

Ugg Australia is an American brand. AMERICAN!! Dammit.

The word ugg, to NZers and Australians is generic. Well, it was until an American company trademarked the term. That's like trademarking the word "sneakers" and stamping SNEAKERS AMERICA on the back of the shoes you make.

Sheepskin boots (what we call ugg boots/uggs/uggies) have been around for many years in Australia and NZ.

Saying "knock-off uggs" or "fake uggs" is like saying fake sneakers or fake pumps. Doesn't work.

Ugg Australia brand boots are no longer made in Australia. They are made in NZ and China. They are then sold for a much higher price than real Australian/New Zealand brands. Eg, here in NZ Ugg Australia boots have just popped up in a store for $NZ240 compared to NZ brand boots for $NZ120.

Real Australian and NZ manufacturers/retailers are no longer allowed to call their boots ugg boots, despite the fact that the term "ugg boots" is deeply ingrained in culture Down Under and most people still call them that.

Fricking ignorant tourists swarm shops here asking for "real ugg boots" and think NZ/Aussie manufacturers are selling some kind of knock-off product.

Here's my opinion on Uggs...if you don't already have them don't buy them. If you have them already wear them if you still like them just be aware that the look is over. If they are dirty and or worn looking throw them out - ewwww! If you live in Wisconsin like I do keep them around regardless for below zero days when everyone looks like hell anyway and you have to wade through knee deep snow to get to your car.

DIE, TRENDS, DIE.


Do you like them?

If yes, wear them.

hear hear!

i love uggs ... ive had them for as long as i can remember, and all of a sudden they got really trendy and now they are impossible to buy anywhere unless you want purple ones with crystals on them ... def not. anyway ... i think uggs are the greatest thing in the world and when its cold and snowy out i try not to leave home without them.

Uggs are great I think. I can't understand why it has not become fashionable for men though. I think there is a market for it.

Maybe men don't won't to wear something trendy 13 year olds wear with ruffly miniskirts?

that's sooo.... UGLY

 

[Trendsetter2]

There was a picture in the paper today of Ben Affleck wearing a black pair of uggs, it must be catching

 

[cloud9]

it was a trend, it is SO over now.

however, i do own a pair of uggs, and i do wear them.
but i wear them because my feet are cold and it annoys me when people say "eeew you still wear uggs? those are so over. and ugly"
yes i know that it was a trend.. like what.. 2 years ago?
im NOT trying to make a fashion statement by wearing them..
i wear them because im cold.. geez.
so who cares if they are ugly (or cute, whatever ppl think about them) ?

 

[bluebutter]

They're still big here where i'm from -- i don't know if ppl are just following the trend here or if its because of the -40 degrees celcius weather. Personally, I'm not a big fan, but hey, if it looks good on some people, then it looks good.

Not only is it his career taking the nose dive, but his fashion sense doesn't seem to be too far behind.
