    Hi, Uggstore sell sheepskin boots of an alternative brand. They are genuine australian made sheepskin ugg boots but not the uGg label, if you are looking for a pair of sheepskin boots without being fussy about the label you may find these boots will be of equal quality. HTH :D
  • Does anyone know the best place to buy cheap emu's?
    I prefer the look of this brand, they are much sturdier also.
    Are there many fakes of these about?

    Last year TK Maxx were selling Emus but they werent sheepskin, I think they run 2 lines, a lower priced suede boot and a more expensive sheepskin boot. I think as long as you check they are sheepskin not suede they would be fine. There is a thread on Emus here http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1099427

    I have just checked and the Emu Bronte is a suede boot the Emu Stinger is a sheepskin. HTH
  • It's a shame that Bootbarn only take credit card, I wish Maestro would roll out to the USA. I'm wondering if it will still work out cheap if I get a pre-paid credit card...

    Oh thats annoying, what are you after?

    I was after the grey classic cardy boots. I went in to town on Sat & tried about 8 shops, all out of stock of the grey ones. Went in to Cruise as a last resort and they had them! So i bought them, I paid the full price of £110, but Id rather that than wait until November!

    You can buy them online too http://www.cruiseclothing.co.uk/#37169X0 and for some reason, when you go to checkout, they are cheaper than what it displays on the first page. Eg, these were £110 then i click add to bag & go to checkout & they ended up as £93.62, I dont know if this is a discount or an error, but either way...its good!
  • Just looked at the link KUx, are you sure its the final total thats cheaper or just the display price? I looked at the checkout page and they show the total but without VAT, then VAT is added at the end.

    Hi there,

    I also searched the website but didnt find much, but there are a few of things making me think these could be fakes...

    1. The boots are very cheap, compared to anywhere else you can buy the real deal.

    2. Each boot, has every size in stock, which implies they have a ton of these boots, and genuine retailers dont stock that much.

    3. Some of the boots look quite pointy at the front, and real Ugg Australia boots are more rounded, and also some of the boots look crushed, or quite poorly made.

    4. The website doesn't mention anywhere that these boots are genuine Deckers Ugg Australia boots.

    5. At the bottom of the page on the website, they suggest you go up a size in a boot, and say please don't go down a size. Fake uggs are smaller than usual. And normally genuine Ugg retailers suggest you go down a size when buying ugg boots, as they are bigger.

    About getting your money back...

    The website states "We will exchange or full refund your purchase within 30 days of the original shipment date. Products must be unworn and in the same condition in which you
    received them. "

    Depending on when you ordered them, it is probably too late to stop the order. So you will have to wait to receive them, and then send them back for a full refund.

    Hope this helps! :o
