When Do You Throw Out Your Ugg Boots?



These are my first and only pair of Ugg Boots. I bought them over 5 years ago and they have been everywhere with me. I have them patched up with masking tape after Rufus decided that they made a great toy.

I know that they are uggly, but I am reluctant to part with them. They are part of my process of becoming an Aussie.

I am surprised at the fashion Ugg Boots that some people wear about town. Not me, I like daggy ones.

Think they are usually turned into earmuffs for the footy, aren't they, Colin?

My sister still has her 15 year old pair. They're quite disgusting, but she refuses to give them up

I recently - last year - bought a new pair after giving my four year old ones up (although they are still in my cupboard. I had to hold them together with a pop sock. Sad.

The new ones have spare souls so that fluffy goodness is maintained.

Worth it I think.

Uggly, but comfortable. Shuffle shuffle everywhere.

Question: when does one throw out ugg boots?

Answer: Never!

Well, maybe if they really start to reek, but not until you have a new pair... but then, they take a while to wear in...

Mine are about 4 years old, I love them and sometimes wear them under my desk at work... especially in this cold snap we're having!
