Best non-Ugg boots?

Rainbowchild

I got a pair of BearPaws last year from TK Max for £45. They are so comfy and keep my feet nice and warm.

I got a great pair of Chestnut Suede Ugg style boots, from Sainsburys....i got them when they had the 25% off offer.....so they were £15, so usually £20 but well worth it!!!:j

I was looking at Bear Paw ones in TK Maxx the other day.

Some seem quite sturdy while others are not so I think you need to pick out the decent ones. They are also labeled as suede with sheepskin lining so not quite the same as Ugg but for £40, they can't be too bad.

V comfy on & a much better fit than the Canterbury Supertreads I got from NZ last year.

My Local TK Max had the Bearpaws mixed in with the similar styled Sketchers,that i think is what the person above is referring too as i picked up the Bearpaws they where sturdy & heavy then picked up a light pair next to them & realised they where Sketchers.
I treated myself to a gorgeous pair of chocolate brown Bearpaws from Tk Maxx for £39.99 they are very sturdy & sheepskin lined,very warm & i have had numerous compliments,well worth the money!. Read the reviews on Amazon etc if you are not sure.
The Bearpaws i got are are retailing everywhere for around £80 plus at the moment so quite a bargain!.
I am pretty sure if you paid £39.99 for these you would not be upset as opposed to the cheap £15-£20 ones which are everywhere, you do get what you pay for.
I was put off the cheaper ones when i saw a girl in town with really flimsy ones that had collapsed & she was walking on the sides of them dragging them along, making such a noise everyone was looking round they looked horrible & can't have been comfortable it made me cringe!.
In my TK Maxx they where also selling the cardy style BearPaw boots i think these where £29.99.
If these boots are not for you though the others i had my eye on where ones in River Island the mock kind of Button Bailey style, they looked nice & are in your price range!.

Just don't get them from Primark if you want to wear them outside. Even though they're about £5 they are so floppy, well the soles are atleast. I wear mine as slippers lol.

Asda have ones for a tenner, which are slightly better. Can't comment on others though

My daughter swears by the river island boots. £30 a pair shes got new ones this year different style like the Ugg Baileys but she still wears last years ones and they still look as good as new . they haven't worn down at the back and she wears them a lot.

My friend has these and she absolutely adores them

they are on offer on the soletrader ebay outlet at the moment, £36.99 with free delivery

i know they are not 100% ugg look-a-likes but they seem like really good value considering they are suede.

The best ones I've ever had were Vans. They weren't expensive as I bought them from an outlet. I've had Baratts & Sketchers too, didn't find either of them particularly good as the soles wore down quickly.

Thanks everyone! I'm going to Costco today, fingers crossed they have some in stock

Emu Stringers (think thats what they are called!) seem to be a good option as people seem to really like them. I have Fitflops and really rate them, only thing I don't like about them is the lack of sheepskin footbed but you can get used to this easily and the reason the footbed is rubber is to enhance the muscle toning aspect of the boot.

Snowboots also seem to go down well- never tried them myself but they look like a nicer and more comfy option to the wellington boot!

Otherwise if its a totally non-ugg style your after, Clarks, ASOS, Topshop, Office or Kurt Geiger (20% off code in Glamour) all have some great styles.
