UGG Question

I've never before had a pair or even considered a pair.  Here's why: are they waterproof?  Around here, nothing's helpful unless it's waterproof. LOL

And I avoid suede like the devil during winter.  Between salt & snow & ice, it'll get ruined, even if it's been sprayed with protectant.

Re: UGG Question

  • Yeah the protectant spray does help making them somewhat waterproof but to be honest one of my old pairs has some salt stains on them.
  • I spray mine each fall with a scotch guard.  I wear them all fall and winter long.  Even into the spring.  In the rain, snow, all kinds of weather.  And I have no water marks on them.  I've had my light tan pair for 5 years and they still look like new and I have worn them so much.

  • I need a pair of boots similar to this style (the classic short Ugg).  But for $100....hell to the no because I'll ruin them. LOL  Wisconsin is entirely too wintry for me to play that game of Russian Roulette.
  • We have some pretty bad winters too and so far my Uggs haven't been ruined. But like Kristi I spray them with the protector every year before I wear them.

    All you need to do is slip your bare feet into a pair and you'll part with the $140.  Trust me, they are amazing.

  • I agree with Jen, they make my feet smile. It's like walking on a cloud.
  • Paula you could go to Macy's and try the Emu brand. They claim to be just like Uggs but a little cheaper.

    I have another pair of really comfy black snow boots from Macy's but can't remember the brand. I bought them before my Uggs and I think they are actually just as soft and warm.

    ROFL - doesn't matter how happy my feet are.  My husband's wallet would be INSANELY unhappy with me for spending $140 on a pair of boots that appear all-too-easily ruined. LOL  I've NEVER spent that much on a pair of shoes or boots.

  • Come on, you cant really be rolling on the floor laughing.

    Well you know what a tight wad MH is and I already have 1 pair and just convinced him I need another pair (now I want the grey ones like Jen and Jo! LOL!).

  • I just came home and showed MH what I bought! I don't usually ask him before I buy things unless it is ridiculously expensive.
