Ugg Boots from £62 delivered

ok guys, heres the lowdown. Firstly i should say i'm an australian male, living in London.
1. Ugg boots are made by a number of manufacturers, ALL of them cheaper than UK high street.
2. the name UGG is a generic term for sheepskin boots.
3. If your sheepskin boots are synthetic, a. youve been ripped off, b.your feet will sweat like hell, and c. you are a fashion victim.
4. UGG boots in australia are slippers designed to be worn INDOORS by both male and female.
5. People wearing ugg boots outdoors are laughed at.
6. It is Ok for men to wear ugg boots, in fact they were designed by surfers origanally for male use.
7. They are not a fashion item
8. You dont have to buy UGG brand. I personally have 3 pairs, all from Jumbo Ugg australia, look them up. they deliver to uk. The quality is as good as UGG.
anyway, thats my take on it all. uggs rock. but only indoors.0 -
If your supposed to wear them indoors that would explain why I slipped over on ice with mine on last year. They had no grip.0

I know many people will think O god animal rights banging on again...but if most people knew the agony that a typical australian sheep went through in it's miserable life, these boots would not seem quite so attractive. I won't go into details here, but have a look at www.savethesheep.com
I'm not an activist I just care about animals.
Hmm. People have been wearing sheepskin for hundreds, if not thousands of years and Im fairly sure bronze age methods of culling were a lot less humane.
If we all got worked up over where our clothing/food etc came from and how it got to us we would all walk around naked and barefoot and living on a diet of lentils.0 -
:mad: just wrote a message & when I tried to 'preview' it vanished!
Try again: I bought Aussie Jumbo Uggs from Oz 2 yrs ago & had to pay lots of import £ - it's pure luck if you get away with it! Then the Jumbo suppliers told me where I could buy them in london so last year I got some from a really cool shop in Camden @ £140. My friend went to the same shop last week & it'd closed down because they're redeveloping parts of the market into a shopping mall - please NOOOOO :mad: I love that market the way it is!!! Anyway, good news, I found the shop e-mail address & they're still there, & even better, now only £120 for the tall & £100 for the short!
I love my comfy REAL AUSSIE UGGS made frome GENUINE AUSSIE sheepskin in OZ!!! WHY would anyone want to pay 50 quid extra for Uggs made in China just so they can show the 'right' label?! Duh!!0 -

hi James, you seem to be answering this site quicker than your emails so ill try it this way, i bought some boots from you, tall classic in chestnut but the stitching is lousy, i appreiciate they are all hand made and individual but thats no reason for them to be made badly, the ones made in china are of a much higher standard, i know you've said i can return them for a refund but by the time i pay for return postage and lose my original postage it would have been quite an expense and i would be left with nothing to show for having no money left. I'm sorry to be blunt but the boots are'nt so cheap that i should expect anything but perfect like the ones i've seen around have been
Did you get a response as I feel exactly the same way as you.0
