Are Ugg boots worth the money?
« on: December 13, 2014, 12:39:47 PM »
I've been thinking about saving up for a pair lately but they're are so dang expensive. The ones I'm looking at are $200. And yes I realize it's just a pair of shoes but I'm one of those people that loves to buy shoes. I just don't know if they're actually worth it. And maybe I'm looking in the wrong place for price wise. Does anyone know of a place that sells them cheaper? The pair I want is on Victorias Secret website.

I like Emu and Ugg. :)
Theres a good chance of finding a pair that hasn't even been used, from last season, for a really big discounts on eBay or even Amazon.
You could also wait for holiday sales for places like Macy's, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, etc.

I've checked ebay and the ones I want aren't to much cheaper there. I'm either wanting the sequin covered ones or the baileys bow ones with 2 bows on the back. I don't get out to shop much so I'll be buying online for sure. I just need to figure out where to buy them lol.

I have two pairs of Uggs and I love them to death. I wear them every day in the winter because they keep my feetsies nice and warm :)

I have some air walk boots I bought from Payless that I like. I'd prefer that they be authentic Ugg brand anyways. I keep seeing the cardigan style pop up and think they're cute. Anyone famailiar with the style?

Here's my take, I haven't owned my own but I have gotten several pairs for my daughters (second hand on ebay,) and they're about as durable as you can get. You can wash them with woolite once in a blue moon and they should last for years under heavy use. I have had very few pairs of shoes/ boots last more than 3 years or so but Uggs have made it through several kids now so I have to say they were worth it.
I couldn't find a style of Uggs I liked for myself and bought a shearling lined combat boot from Born instead. They were $200, which gave me heart palpitations to pay and caused the lady to go over their return policy carefully but they have been worth every penny. Shoes are one of the few things you should spend a bit more on and your feet don't often change size much so go for it!

I finally picked up a pair when we were in Australia in October (so they should be "real" ones, at least I hope so) and I paid AUD $95 for them.  Worth every penny in my opinion, I love mine. My husband has had a pair for almost 6 years now and they are still going strong!

I'm glad to hear that they are good quality for the money. Makes me want a pair even more now. If I didn't have so many bills Id make them a birthday present to myself lol.

Oooh, glad I decided to look through this thread.  I've been wanting a pair of Ugg's for the longest but wasn't too sure about them.  Glad to hear so many positive things!

I bought a pair of bearpaw boots in college for $40 and I still wear them when it's cold.  They're my favorite boots for after showboarding.  XD  They look like Uggs and 6 years later, they are still in darn good shape.  I don't see any reason to spend the money to get real Uggs with as well as my cheaper pair have lasted.

I personally wouldn't buy a pair due to them being made from sheepskin however if you really want to buy them then it's your money at the end of the day. I did have a knockoff pair once made out of faux materials and they were okay but they eventually wore down on the soles and became unwearab!e.

Isn't it better that they use sheep skin? That way sheep other parts won't get in waisted after people have take the meat and wool. Every part is used and nothing wasted. (yes sounds cruel but better than throwing away)

Worth every penny. If you tread them nice uggs will serve you many years :).

My husband bought me a pair of the Bailey Mini Uggs for my birthday 2 years ago and they still look brand new even after wearing them for 2 years. I absolutely adore them and believe they are certainly worth the money :)
