Boots
Features and Benefits
Ugg boots, in the Russian version of uggs, are a type of high-top shoe made of tanned sheepskin with synthetic soles.
Their surface is made of suede, and inside there is a layer of insulation made of sheep or synthetic wool. Thanks to their excellent insulation, ugg boots can be worn almost all year round, they keep you warm in winter and cool in summer. Due to natural materials, effective air circulation occurs, the skin breathes, and the feet do not sweat.
The fashion for these shoes came from Australian farmers, for whom these boots were very practical.
The name itself comes from a distorted English word ugly, which means "ugly". But unpredictable fashion has made its own adjustments, and today many people find ugg boots very stylish and attractive.
They have a number of advantages:
- uggs are very warm and comfortable;
- thanks to soft materials, the legs in them do not get tired when walking;
- boots are relatively easy to care for;
- there are many elegant and attractive models.
Some note the lack of ugg boots in slippery soles. But the developers took into account this feature, many modern options have corrugated protectors on the bottom, providing reliable grip on the surface. These shoes are predominantly women's, but there are many models for men and children.

The biggest drawback of ugg shoes was water permeability.
Suede, tanned sheepskin and fur get wet quickly during rainfall. Therefore, a poured version of these boots was created. The material in a special chamber under high temperature can be processed with additional impregnation. The result is a waterproof film. In drenched ugg boots, you can freely walk through puddles without fear that your feet will get wet. They are easily cleaned of dirt.
To protect against water, ugg boots can be equipped with an upper water-repellent coating of various materials.
It can be a bologna layer or polyester. These materials also easily evaporate moisture from the surface and are easy to clean. Such models can have various bright colors or cute patterns for every taste.
Short women's uggs look very elegant and can be combined with almost any outfit. This is a practical option for moderate weather without severe frosts. They are easy to put on and will be a good alternative to ankle boots or boots. Short models are presented on wide buttons, zippers and fasteners.
Higher winter uggs are the most common option.
They have a height just below the knee and will be comfortable even in frost. Usually such models do not have zippers or fasteners. A variety of styles - from simple and discreet monotonous poured boots to glamorous options with natural fur inserts allow any fashionista to choose a product to her taste.
Proper Care
The suede surface dries quickly, but it is more difficult to clean it of dirty stains than smooth leather.
The pile absorbs dirt, and then getting rid of it is problematic. To clean ugg boots, use nubuck brushes and suede shampoo. When wet, it is worth drying the boots after each trip.
If the uggs are drenched, then the cleaning process is simplified.It is enough to wipe the surface with a damp cloth to remove dirt stains.
The inner layer of sheepskin ugg boots is also susceptible to getting wet, so you need to make sure that it is dried. If the shoes are worn on a bare foot, then it is possible to clean the inner pile only with the help of dry cleaning.
What to wear
Some women find that the lack of heels and low-rise soles on these boots visually shorten the legs.
But if you choose jeans, tights or leggings that match the color scheme, then this effect will be invisible. On the contrary, to visually increase the height and slenderness of the legs, it is worth using black high uggs and black matte tights.
The figure can be emphasized by wearing long ugg boots with a wide belt at the waist.
Cropped models will look spectacular with skinny and classic blue jeans. Under no circumstances should these shoes be worn with a long dress or a skirt below the knee. This greatly visually shortens the legs.
Thin skinny jeans and skinny tucked into these boots can further emphasize the slimness of the legs. Monotonous coats, sports jackets and jackets just above the knee, fur vests go well with them. A fashionable touch is complemented by massive bags and backpacks.
If winter sheepskin coats are used, then they should be harmoniously combined in color with ugg boots. Such shoes look effective with knitted hats, wide, tight-fitting scarves and suede gloves.
The summer version of the outfit is mini-shorts made of fabric and a narrow T-shirt with short sleeves. Skirts and dresses for ugg boots should be chosen above the knee. In summer, shoes are worn without socks on a bare foot.
