Ugg Boots from £62 delivered

*Vikki*

haha sorry I am so confused with it all lol.. never heard of them! It says in wikipedia though that they have gone in to administration on the 29/12/08 USC, its not too risky buying them from them is it? Oh it worked for me the discount, its on the right hand side, you have to checkout etc on it.

Hi

just wanted to add my two pennies worth if it's of help to anyone, particularly anyone umming and ahhing between Ugg / Emu...

I have been trawling pages and pages of Ugg / Emu threads for days trying to decide where to go / what to buy and I found this -

went to John Lewis to try on both Ugg and Emu boots - I have wide feet and am typically a size 7 - both Ugg and Emu short classic styles were a perfect fit in size 7. Both were really comfy and snug and I wanted to walk straight out with them!

The Emu are a lot bigger over the top of the foot and I had to laugh as one poster somewhere said they made her feet look like 2 jacket potatoes, which was so true was disappointed as I really wanted to prefer Emus as I didn't want to spend so much for Ugg branding, but then again, really glad I did the comparison. Aesthetically (sp?) the Uggs are definitely nicer.

I didn't buy in John Lewis - I'm after the metallic short and they were £160 instore, so I've come home, ordered from ASOS and should have them on Friday (unfortunately Shudoo didn't have my size).

Don't know if this will help anyone, but I found that you can do internet overkill reading sooooo much info, but after a quick "try it on" trip, my mind is made up, and I'm now excitedly waiting for my delivery on Friday.
