Ugg Inc. has grown their brand to become synonymous with American Teenage girls. A far cry from the boots’ origins in Australia and New Zealand amongst outdoorsmen and surfers.
The Ugg Corporatization has made if difficult for men to wear their wooly boots without being submitted to harsh ridicule and hateful comments.
Everyday surfers choose to freeze their little toes off by wearing sandals or shoes when their feet could instead be cozy in a pair of uggs. Surfers have been repping uggs since the 1960s when they would don them coming out of the water to keep their feet warm. Surfer Brian Smith popularized the boot in the United States by offering them in his surf shop stores.
Hopefully Christmas 2010 is the year that uggboots make their return to all those isolated admirers in the world. For too long have they been hated on, its time someone steps up and demands a return to normalcy. Hopefully the links to different providers below can help you decide what pair you yourself like and not what pair the market and fashion have told you to like.
