The UGG brand, a symbol of high quality footwear, has always selected the best reverse sheepskin in the world, which is then processed to produce an inimitable texture.

The brand maintains strict standards for animal welfare and sustainability, also offering regenerated and plant-based collections.

Furthermore, Treadlite by UGG™ is an extremely light sole that guarantees superior support and flexibility. Compared to traditional EVA soles, Treadlite has more resistance and is safer on wet surfaces.

The sheepskin boot was designed by Australian surfer Shane Stedman to keep his feet warm after surfing in the cold Pacific waters. Surfers still wear them both in winter and in summer without socks, as they were originally designed. In 1971 Stedman first registered the UGH-BOOTS trademark in Australia and in 1982 the UGH trademark.

In 1978 it was another surfer, Brian Smith, who started the UGG Australia footwear company in the United States: UGG footwear has great public support including Californian surfers and Hollywood stars.

Much of their popularity is due to Oprah Winfrey, a famous American host of the talk show of the same name. In early 2000, Oprah listed UGG boots as one of her “things I like best” and mentioned them several times during her Christmas broadcasts.

Although these boots originated for men, today they are more popular among women. Some movie stars, such as Kate Hudson, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Aniston and Cameron Diaz have been photographed wearing UGG boots.

Those who adore them also include celebrities such as the Ferragni sisters, many Victoria's Secret models, Emily Ratajkowski, Rihanna and the queen herself Cher.

UGG was named “Brand of the Year” by Footwear News.

Over the years, the range of UGG shapes has expanded to include hundreds of models and colors, all united by the highest quality sheepskin.

We start from the boots with the high leg, typical of the early 2000s, then we move on to those with the medium leg, up to the Ultra Mini which are all the rage in the 2022 trends.

In 2009 UGG surprises the fashion world with an avant-garde capsule collection, created under the Jimmy Choo brand. It also boasts collaborations with Swarovski, Luis Vuitton and Jeremy Scott, creator director for Moschino.

Special mention goes to Asia, whose boot market is growing thanks to the Idols who wear them on various occasions. In fact, during the winter many Ugg Pop Up Stores open throughout Asia and especially in Korea, where the brand is highly appreciated by both young people and adults.

How do we behave to keep them at their best?

Well there are different methods to prevent unwanted stains and eliminate superfluous dirt.

1. remove dirt and dust with a suede brush;
2. moisten the boots with a non-rough sponge soaked in water;
3. dab the shoes with a soft white cloth to dry them;
4. stuff the boots with acid-free paper so they keep their shape;
5. let the shoes air dry for 24 hours in a cool, well-ventilated area.

Two tips to keep in mind:

- use the transparent waterproof spray immediately, even when new, to prevent stains;
- air them out occasionally to dry the sweat.
