Interesting. But for someone who lives here in the Philppines, very inappropriate :P

warm comfortable sheepskin lined booties.
i said booties because they wouldn't fit my definition of a regualr boots.
first- durability. try getting them wet & you can say goodbye to your 100something dollars. you can't even take those walking on hiking or as simply put- rugged walking.
last- nothing but fancy two weeks ago. try using them outside then get muddied out, you'll see what i mean.
my remedy for cold nights or even days here or at the slopes?
thick wool socks(even if the heater is on.)
by the way, what color did you get? i like sand. looks good on ladies.

like i said, i got sand. good thing its in stock.
and yeah, you're right, but i don't live in the woods. i just go to manhattan and saw a lot of people wearing those boots and i tried them on when i saw them and they are so comfy, so i bought it. and i go to manhattan frequently. there is no mud or they won't get dirty coz most of the time i'm in the subway. and the weather is always good here.
some people also wear this during summer but i don't think its a good idea at all. summers here in the northeast is extremely hot. as much as i want to, i will go barefoot.

LOL! that's so funny! Maybe it's her typhoon boots :P hehehhe. Wala kasi snow dito....pang bagyo alang...JOKE :D
Gosh, i can just imagine wearing it here..Uber init nun! I hope some company comes out with a similar style but suitable for warmer climates....

They look nice, fuzzy and warm. If I live somewhere cold, I'd probably score one myself.
However, like what caryatid_kitten said, it would look terribly out of place in a tropical country such as the Philippines.

missfoxxybonita: it didn't get a good rep for me back then because people in california & my state, i even saw one at seattle - summertime wearing those uggs & sweatpants at starbucks. talk about paporma habang hindi bagay sa panahon.
it's summer you idiot! that's what flipflops are for.

well i would like to wear them with denim minis (well, i will wear leggings of course. i will not freeze my legs...no way!!)
what is the best way when wearing it with pants? cuff them or tuck them in? most of my jeans are bootcut/flared and when i tried to tuck them in, it looks weird. whatcha think?
they are so comfy. really made for walking, especially since i'm very frequent in manhattan and i walk like more than 5 blocks.

actualy you can wear them in hot weather too. thats what real sheep skin does, it keeps your feet cool when its hot and keeps it warm when its cold. thats why sheepskin is also used for carseats.
peace!

for people that want an alternative to uggs but still like the mocha winter boots look.
check out Minnetonkas. its not as pricey but much more stylin' in my opinion.

Anyone, I'm one to admire people who dare to wear what they want to wear, but a few months ago (wayyy before the cool december air set in) I saw a teenager wearing a mini skirt and uggs in Rockwell. Yung may fur pa, ha! TSK! TSK! I'm sorry, but I couldn't help but make think "what tha hell?!"
Mag-snow na kasi dito eh! Uggs are really cute!

Dec 13, 2004, 11:11 PM
I wore them last winter when it was snowing or when it was just plain icy outside. But I mostly wore my uggs when I was helping my neighbors shovel snow :glee: I love the black knee-high ones the best.

i agree! they make your ankles look fat. i think that they're just a fad because of all the hollywood celebrities wearing them

Dec 14, 2004, 03:19 AM
I have the classic short in sand and I love it. In Cali people wear it year round :lol:.
To answer your question about wearing your jeans tucked in or out, I wear mine out. If the jeans are tapered or slim, it's okay to tuck in.
Buy UGG cleaners and protective spray to maintain your boots. Also they sell replacement footbeds when the old ones become worn out.
Enjoy your UGG's.
ewanko2.. correct.. people in cali wear them all year round.. in summer naman.. i can say that the people i see wearing ugg boots eh at night and not at day where the sun is scorching.. :P
i wanna buy ugg boots but they're freaken back ordered.. hello!?!

i think it's another fad.actually last year eh nagsuluputan na yan but i guess ppl are now jumping in the bandwagon..they are alrite..true the Real Uggs i think there is a waiting list for it..but if u r lucky u mite find it in a store where ppl least expect to buy it from..
don't have one iono i don't wanna say fuggly but they are not for me..don't even have a fair n i'm not ready to jump in the bandwagon any time soon...

yeah, lucky me i guess. i found it at journey's and they said they have a lot of those in stock and for cheap. but they only have one color. so i told other ppl when they saw my boots that i got them from journey's.
well, if you are planning to buy them, don't forget to get the spray to protect it. it is very very helpful.

u knoe where i found some uggs..i believe the walking co store ( i think it is hehehe)..well yea they have tons of pairs but ppl overlook coz old ppl go there so the young ones assumes they aint got no uggs..well i kno nordstrom has a waiting list..well u guys can try ebay ..or jus buy something similar to it..i found some better ones but i believe it's also made from australia but more expensive..
abt journey's, where i live they don't have it..but i'm pretty sure they have it on that walking store...

yes indeed. i am very sure that those boots of mine are the original uggs in classic short sand color. like the pic below, and comes from the same box.

depende sa lugar at climate ang pagsuot ng mga sapatos na ganyan. kung sa US, ok lang dahil winter time naman dun eh. pero kung sa makati or anywhere in 'pinas mo susuotin, just to make porma dahil 'IN' sa states, para kang ENGOT nun! hindi bagay...ang init sa manila 'no!

Mukluk's is one of this seasons hottest trend. I got my Ugg's winter of 2003 and gave it to my Mom last year, I just dont feel comfy wearing it anymore since I've seen a lot of people wearing the same style and shade that I have.
I bought a new one though, quite similar to Mukluk's. It has a little faux furrs goin on, cute and warm enough since it doesn't snow in our place.
Here's Rebecca Romijn Stamos wearing Mukluk's it looks good on her.

anyway, mukluks are cool, thank the uggs for starting that trend which now has evolved.
like many people in this thread, i have no problem with uggs, only during the summer, i live in california, so right now its pretty cold enough to wear. i also have no problem with people wearing it habang summer dito sa CA, just as long as you wear it right.
you know what i mean, hindi lang basta basta.
anyway, i go to school in downtown la, and i see people with the mukluks, i think they are so cool. function and style together.

oh about uggs and mukluks, i was just in downtown l.a a couple hours ago for school, and i just realized when you should not wear uggs and especially mukluks; when its raining hard like it is here in southern cali. so many peoples boots were soaking! so much for keeping your feet warm, hehe :D
and yes, i am a boy, hehe. i go to a fashion school in l.a, so i see alot of peoples different styles and stuff. :D

mukluks are uggs in overdrive with the fur coming on..
i agree.. in cali.. it might be cold.. but it ain't dry.. so some uggs in the socal area are getting soaked!!
wahahahahahahaha..
i prefer the subtlety of uggs anytime

I don't own a pair but I have similar ones and I agree they're quite warm. In the snow, however, not so practical since they get all wet.
Apparently though, they're out (according to Fashion channels, magazine, etc.).

anyways, wala na masyado nagsusuot niyan dito when it became popular kasi ang UGGs for strictly home lang dapat. sumikat na lang nung madami na nagsusuot na mga stars. rachel hunter found it funny na ang daming mga girls na nagsusuot just to follow a fashion trend. personally i think UGGs with mini skirts look tacky. but that's my opinion. mahal nga talaga UGGs. mas lalong tumaas na ang price kasi its latest fashion craze.
