Thema: Definately worth paying a little more for real UGGs
UGGs boots are truely fantastic and a great invention in the shoe world!!
i love my uggs so much so i wear them very often and take good care of them.
They really do manage to keep your feet warm, unlike cheaper alternatives, as they have a beautiful lining which is due to the double sheep skin effect, so inside is the wooley side and outside is the soft leather. My feet ae always cold but in my UGGs on sale they are nice and snug. The fleece they use is also breathable and body temperature regulating. So if your feet get sweaty the fleece is able to breathe and draw out the moisture, maintaining temperatre balance in you feet. The UGG website claim that this means you can wear them all year round however i have not tried wearing them in summer myself.
The only down side to ugg boots that i have found from personal experience is that they wear through very easily at the heal area inside the lining. This can then cause the outside to crinkle down and make your boot look a little odd (i hope others understand what i mean).
Wholesale UGGs lasted about 8 months before they wore down. Uggs seem to be very pricey but you can definately tell the difference in qaulity from cheaper alternatives. If you shop around you can get reasonable deals.
Summary: definately worth paying a little more for real uggs!
