In reality it’s a much more complicated process than this, but the original boots are made down under in the land of Australia. They were made and sold to surfers to begin with, for keeping their cold feet, remember in Southern California the ocean is very cold, warm while they all hung out on the beach. Who would care about the cold feet of a surfing dude? Well, other surfers of course. But no one, not even the original manufacturers could imagine the demand and sales that are achieved today.
A lot of thanks has to go to Oprah Winfrey for stimulating this rather fashion explosion. As you know, if Oprah has something on her show, you can consider it an instant success. She wore them on her show a few times, endorsed them as the most comfortable boots she’s ever worn, and then bought her entire crew a pair. I would rather have a car, but hey, she’s giving them away.
Ugg Brand Boots do have some drawbacks, however. For one thing, you can’t get them wet or the sheepskin on the outside will stain. Now I know what you are thinking, what good is a boot if I can’t get it wet? Well, most users only where them for fashion and don’t wear them on rainy days. For those of you who have a hard time comprehending an article of clothing that is more fashion than form or function, you’re in the minority, these sheepskin boots are not going away anytime soon.
