UPDATE
if ever this is a genuine website, they also have 'super mega winter sale 2010' in some styles and sizes that are too small i.e 2 or 3 or size 10 and up. like classic short boot size 10.5 for £39
i wish i have live my life a little bit off the book, took a chance and gamble :whistle:

    I remember this website, my mum bought my sis some but they were the wrong size. Pretty sure the shoes were legitt though. Thought about getting a few pairs and selling them on over her but was skint at the time.
  • They are UGG boots, but they are not Deckers Ugg boots.

    Ugg is a generic term for that style of boot. If you want Deckers uggs, then give these a miss.

  • In less than 30 seconds I have found this on their website:

    Do you sell the "UGG Australia" sheepskin boots?

    We get this question regularly and the answer is no! We sell our own products, manufactured here in Australia by our manufacturers. We are not affiliated to the US Company that owns the UGG Australia brand - called Deckers. The word Ug,Ugh, Ugg has been associated with a style (not brand) of footwear for many years in Australia so you will find many people advertising ug, ugg or ugh boots. The word Ugg is found in the Macquarie Dictionary. Most of the UGG AustraliaTM production occurs in China and not in Australia.

    No, they are not genuine 'Ugg Decker' retailers.

    If you look on the official Ugg Australia website, it shows a list of authorised online retails, this one isn't on here:

    http://www.uggaustralia.com/gb/retailstores/onlinestores.aspx?p=aor

    Also just for future guidance, if the word 'ugg' appears on a website's www address, it's guaranteed to be fake (only the Ugg Australia website can do this).
  • thanks guys!

    any idea how to remove this thread?

  • I'm no expert either so do not know if that web site is real.
    I am after some UGG boots too.
    I have found
    2010 ugg boots.com
    which is selling classic tall UGGs for £53.18 delivered?
    Is it real - it seems very cheap!
    Please help
    Thanks

    As someone else pointed out further up the thread, any website with ugg in the url other than www.uggaustralia.com will be selling fakes. You can find the list of official stockists on the website i have listed, just click the link and then you can click the Retail store link on the left hand side and choose authorized online retailers.
