    I bought my missus some of these in the black friday deals and she loves them (admittedly, the taller ones), and they fit perfectly

    All these comparisons to Uggs seems unfair to me (an avid Ugg buyer by the way) as they are not marketed as Uggs nor sold as copies.

    I think using "Ugg style" in the description IS marketing them as Ugg copies IMO.

    They are a bargain in terms of other premium sheepshin brands, but in their own right, they certainly arent worth the original RRP & I'd argue their value at the reduced price, especially when you can get Bearpaw ankle boots, which are far more substantial, for a few quid extra.

    EDIT - I'm not trying to argue against peoples preferences in sheepskin boots BTW, I just want to give people a personal oppinion to help them decide whether or not this is a "bargain" worth buying

    Did you not use the 10% off code on Amazon's page to get them for £20.90 like I did? you should cancel that order and re-order using the code, there is time if you only placed order a short while ago :D
    Hello - could you point me to the 10% code please? icon7.gif

    Sure, let me get a link for you! on this page, see where it says 10% code, not allowed to type it on here I am afraid, go to the link: its on the same page as the trainers I just bought yesterday too, using it, here:

    I got some on Black Friday for someone,admittedly she nearly slipped on the stairs lol but they were fine outside,the soles probably need to be roughed up so to speak.

    The fur is thinner because they are Merino wool not Sheepskin inside.
  • I also got some of the Lo ones of these during Black Friday weekfor £29.00 and sent them back - the soles were very "plastic" and "solid" - the actual sheepskin was fine but I just didn't like them at all to walk in - no "give" in the soles and as others have said, very slippy.
  • Mine arrived this morning at 10am, less than 24 hours after ordering. I've just left a great review on Amazon as I am delighted with them. I don't find them slippy at all and they are very good quality, well made. The fur inside is merino wool, unlike Uggs which is sheepskin of course but as I only paid under 20 pounds for these and similar booties in Uggs would cost 160 pounds roundabout, I am delighted. I'm wearing them right now, they look great and feel great! I'm happy :)
