ugg - can i really wear a youth size?
I'm thinking of ordering some uggs. I'm usually a size 8.5 in shoes, but I'm probably an 8 in uggs b/c they run big.
I've heard I can get a youth size 6....is this really true or am I going to regret it?

Re: ugg - can i really wear a youth size?
I'm an 8 or 8.5 in regular shoes and wear a size 7 in Uggs, at least the suede ones. They are usually a bit tight when I first get them and then stretch to a good size. The 8 stretch out too much and then I have to wear sock with them which kinda defeats the purpose.
I tried the classic cardi though and the 7's seemed a bit too small but the 8's seemed way to big so I don't know about those. I want a pair but can't figure out what size to get.
I haven't heard the youth size thing though.
Someone posted this in response to an Ugg question a few days ago, about going down two sizes and ordering youth boots since they're cheaper. I had considered this a few years ago when I got my second pair of Uggs, but was nervous to proceed on that route considering I had to order online to get the color I wanted. I ended up just going w/ my regular Ugg size in women's so I wouldn't have to deal with returning the youth boots if they were too snug.
My question was this, if I wear a regular shoe in a sz. 7, but wear a sz. 6 in Uggs, would I go down two sizes from my regular size (to a youth sz. 5) or down two sizes from my Ugg size (to a youth sz. 4)? I can never get a straight answer on this and I'm confused on what to do.
My concern would depend on how tall you are. If you want the boots to be taller on your leg, a youth size may not come up hight enough.
I found the youth size to fit a bit more boxy as well.
It was me who posted about kids Ugg sizing the other day. I used to work in a kids shoe dept and women would always come and get the kids uggs, because they are cheaper. We'd sell out so fast, mainly because women bought them, not kids.
Anyway, I have a classic short and a Sunburst Tall, both in kids size 6. I wear a womens 8. Though, if you are having doubts, I'd definitely try a pair on if you can. GL!
Ditto!
I wear an 8 in regular shoes, 8 in Adult Uggs and 6 in Kid Uggs. The only thing is that I'm 5'4 and the kids boots are shorter on me than my adult boots. It's not drastic, but it's a good 1/2 inch shorter. It doesn't bother me because when you wear pants over you can't see it (duh!) and when I tuck tights in, no one breaks out the ruler to make sure I'm not cheap!! It's worth saving the $$$, IMO.
